It's a meaningless phrase anyway. What does it mean to 'give him a chance'? He's going to be the President and he'll have to deal with congress and with the leaders of other countries. None of those have to treat him any differently than they would another American President. Or does it mean that we need to be quiet for a certain amount of time because if someone sneezes too loud he'll accidentally raise taxes on the wealthy? I don't think Trump is going to care that I decided to give him a chance or not.
Does "give him a chance" mean not to protest or write letters to the editor or go on twitter rants or ask tough questions or any of a number of things that people do all the time without disrupting the workings of government? Does it mean not to start riots or beat people up or any of those things that can already be dealt with by law enforcement and which usually only hurt someone other than the President? I don't think Trump will be paralyzed from inaction because the world kept spinning.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
