It's probably helped along by the fact that I agree with Chula's position in this thread ( that Trump and his admin are a disaster for the American people), but I've never had a real problem with Chula's discussion style, here or elsewhere.
It's a pity that this thread gets so heated sometimes that it degenerates into personal insults and name-calling, but that's something that several posters are guilty of, no?
On flexibility; yes, if you want to cultivate an intelligent attitude to the world, it's fundamental. It's the scientific method; make a hypothesis, observe the facts, check that your hypothesis is still good. Sometimes the incoming facts will confirm your original hypothesis, in which case you don't change your ideas. At a glance, that may make you look inflexible, but that's not necessarily true.
For me, in the specific case of Trump, the facts just keep building up to confirm my initial hypothesis, that Trump is a self*-interested lying hate-monger, doing hard-to-calculate damage to the environment and the majority of Americans.(* I'd like to stretch the word "self" to include his businesses, his family and his fellow-millionaires.)
Fresh in, is this furthur, confirmatory verdict on Trump from Europe and France:-
