Look at how many people hate Donald Trump, compared to others, and I think it's a safe assumption he's in the lead, but I can't prove it, so i'll give you a win for this one, but only because I don't have time to count them up. How about you gather some numbers to prove your point?Exactly. It's impossible to prove, so why are you claiming it? Rules of an argument mean that positive claims have the burden of proof.
And really asking me to prove the number of death threats against everyone is a bull shit request, because that's impossible. It's like as asking to prove shit doesn't stink. You may think your shit doesn't stink, but I bet if you asked your mom who changed your diapers, she would tell you otherwise.
Lesson of the day: Don't use a subjective claim as your main counter-argument, and then cry when asked to back up your claim with evidence and are unable to.
Which is better:
To die with ignorance, or to live with intelligence?
Truth doesn't accommodate to personal opinions.
The choice is yours.
