You admit he's a liar, and that he's making plans on leaving the country so why trust him when he says WHY he says he's making those plans? Again, he's a convicted felon who has yet to be sentenced. For being a stickler on 'context', you seem to be ignoring that part.
Also, are you going to edit your initial comment to admit that he did make plans to leave the country now that you conceded he did?
It's evident that your mind is made up. You've chosen to reject reality in favor of your hopes and your feelings. Something must be true because you want it to be true. While I also want it to be true, I prioritize reality to inform my observations.
It's painful to observe our comprehension of reality melting away for the benefit of the media and corporations and fascist-wannabes. They know people just see and feel what they want as long as it generates something other than nothing. I genuinely hope you'll find a way to disconnect yourself from the twisted reality you subscribe to.
Actually, I had considered editing my comment to reflect the fact that he did not make plans to leave. It's a hypothetical situation based on something that hasn't happened. How you're unable to discern that is too much for my mind to handle right now.
You don't get to have it both ways. How you're unable to discern that is too much for my brain. Have a good day.
