All joking aside, the trend of insulting the intelligence of one's political opponents has outlived its welcome. Clinton's infamous comment about the "irredeemable basket of deplorables" and Peter Strzok's "smelly Walmart people" comment is much like Trump's trashy locker-room talk and the constant belittling heard on talk radio in the afternoon--both on the conservative reaches of the AM dial, and on NPR.
There is no hope for us if we continue insulting people. I will sit down & talk to anyone, no matter his/her political views, and try to understand them. I don't have to believe in them unless they are telling the truth, but I do have to, as a fellow human being, grant them the decency of a proper and genteel conversation.
This goes for our members of a more liberal persuasion as well, and you know who you are. I haven't got a list of names but I hope our Aspie minds at least are consistent enough to tell when they are being decent and civil in human interaction.
