So the emphasis is specifically on the word time, rather than administration?


On both, actually - to show that it isn't an idea emanating for the aforementioned insane cheetoh.


I have to say that makes no sense to me: it's his administration, and therefore his (administration's) responsibility. Could it be that it's a distinction without a difference: after all, people are opposing it because they think it is a bad idea, not because it came from him. If so, what exactly is your point? I don't understand.

(I wish you wouldn't call him names, it's a little uncivil.)


Generally it's best to read the post being replied to if you want to make sense of a reply.

stuckagain wrote (above) that "Now we have insane cheetoh in office and we're getting insane cheetoh policy ideas", I was pointing out that while he may support it, this idea didn't came from the current POTUS, there was even a bill proposal during the previous administration.


Isn't that a kind of a narrow observation? I don't think the main objection to it that he came up with it, surely? Indeed that post didn't criticize the idea just because it came from him, it claimed that the idea was bad much like all the other things he believes. I think you misread that post completely.
