You gotta be pretty incompetent to walk directly into that. Even if you’re not sure where the interviewer is going, if you ever hear the phrase “so you agree that…” you cannot agree with whatever they’re saying because that phrase indicates that you’re walking into a logic trap.
Yeah but they get away with it because their audience only cares/is fed the stuff they agree with
Trump said the government should be allowed to take people’s guns without due process (just breaking two constitutional amendments, NBD) and Republicans just had to wait a couple days and their voters forgot about it
It’s a trap either way. Like asking Matt Gaetz if he agrees children should not be trafficked and raped by middle-aged adults. Any direct answer to that would make him look like a pedophile.
That’s why you aren’t a politician (along with probably many other reasons). The correct response is something like: “there are certain actions that these protesters shouldn’t be taking.” You just totally avoid the question and pretend like you answered it.

Giant flashing “it’s a trap” sign.
Ficking idiot walks straight into it.

Logic traps only work on hypocrites though.
