Please supply your facts and cogent arguments for this. I gave my
reason; you did not dispute it at all, providing no evidence.

Please supply your data and cogent rebuttal about namecalling.

Pretty much every sentence out of the mouth of your pathetic

THIS is what you consider "evaluating the data" and providing a
"cogent rebuttal"??? WOW!
1. It doesn't address the issue at hand at all; this is not about what
Trump says.
2. It's not factual at all. Suppose you allow a 3% error rate in your
"pretty much every sentence". If I supply 100 sentences of Trump that
are not calling someone a name, do you agree to supply 3300 different
sentences of Trump that call someone a name? That should be equally easy
according to your "fact".
3. Trump is not my hero. As I've stated several times over the years, I
have never voted for Trump. I've been quite disappointed that neither
major party could come up with an acceptable candidate in the last 3
presidential elections.  At least the Libertarians had an acceptable
candidate all elections.

In my world, the namecalling and personal attacks in this newsgroup
in recent years has almost exclusively been done by the liberals here,
as witness the past few days.

You've just made my point.  In your context, 'liberal' is perjorative.

So in your opinion "liberal" is pejorative?  I certainly don't believe
it is.  It is descriptive.  Provide your evidence.

You also don't realize that current historians are almost all liberals and

Oh, nonsense.

Wow! Another fact filled cogent argument! You even snipped the full sentence
and omitted the qualifications and facts that I supplied.  Annoying things,
these facts.

If you want more facts, how about
https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2016/10/03/voter-registration-data-show-democrats-outnumber-republicans-among-social-scientists
which discusses a study looking at voter registrations among 5 different
social science disciplines at 40 top universities.

Over all 5 departments, Democrats out-numbered Republicans by an
11.5 to 1 ratio. But History departments by far had the most
lopsided ratio: for every Republican historian, there were over 33
Democrat historians!

I await your cogent rebuttal.
