''plenty of evidence that Harris is a critical thinker, totally unlike Felonius Trump aka Donald duck.''
you know, I'd never looked up the characteristics of Donald Trump's thinking and compared them in detail to the characteristics of critical thinking
there is almost literally ZERO similarity to a critical thinking - in most cases he's in fact the TOTAL OPPOSITE
