The irony, of course, is that they want "respect" from people they claim to hate. The support of others like themselves is not enough for them. They demand approval from the people they claim they don't care about and whom they swear don't matter. It is central to their fury. /2— Tom Nichols (@RadioFreeTom) February 2, 2020
But then, I also didn't have the gnawing feeling that I was doing something wrong. I was comfortable - then and now - with my vote. I have very few votes, for both Rs and Ds, I regret. Maybe that's why I never much cared if someone in OH or FL or CA disagreed with me. /4— Tom Nichols (@RadioFreeTom) February 2, 2020
