I also asked if English was your first language, which, again, had nothing to do with a typo. You have a Kosovo flag, you say stuff like "you're an American and you don't know basic law," which is weird for an American to call another American "American." I thought I saw you reference Canada in a different post (although I don't care enough to remember it). There's plenty of reasons to believe you're not from here, so I was wondering where you are from. It's simple.

He obviously feels attacked.
Do you want him to feel attacked?
Non-Americans are allowed to have opinions about how we are running our country, just as many Americans have opinions about how they run theirs.

I don't care if he feels attacked. I didn't attack him. It's one thing to get annoyed with politics. It's another entirely to come into a nation of people and tell them how stupid they are and argue points that require nuance and knowledge of the system. This argument is ridiculous on its face. Even if he takes Trump literally (which he shouldn't), he's also trying to hinge an argument one what it means to be "before he takes office." 

To his credit, American lefties don't understand the distinction, either, so he should feel right at home here. Oh, now he should feel attacked.
