        How did I move the goalposts? I said from the beginning that it’s happened my whole life. If anything, the guy who talked about a few years of inconvenience is the one who moved the goalposts.

      Well, of course I didn’t have to clarify I wasn’t a supporter of President Trump while he wasn’t President…

      I pretty much have to be prepared for assumptions about any dubious American move in the global stage, and America makes a lot of dubious moves.

        Right, but my point is that there never has been a time in my life where someone hasn’t equated Jew and Israeli. I’ve had to defend myself against that since I was a teenager and that was the 1990s. And if people blame all Americans for the crimes of what is actually a minority of those Americans, then they shouldn’t do that either.
