Is Adam Schiff an Idiot?

Adam Schiff claims that 50,000 Americans are dead because President Trump was not removed from office. Having recently read Steven Levitsky's "How Democracies Die," I would encourage readers to carefully consider the propriety of their use of the term "idiot."

I realize that the term no longer necessarily implies deficiency in mental ability/intelligence. However, when we refer to individuals as "idiots," implying stupidity or a lack of "common" sense, I would suggest that we proceed with caution.

Steven Levitsky is a Harvard professor. Adam Schiff is a graduate of Stanford and Harvard Law School. I suspect that Levitsky's hypocritical attacks on Conservatives, while turning a blind-eye toward the very same, if not worse, tactics undertaken by Liberals, is neither idiotic nor stupid.

Furthermore, I seriously doubt Adam Schiff's bizarre assertion regarding deaths attributable to Trump's administration is either idiotic or stupid.

These individuals are engaging in ideological warfare. University students are deluged with propagandistic material in virtually every class taken. We need to wake up to the serious issues confronting us and realize these individuals aren't idiots. They fully intend to usurp our freedoms and create a dystopian global society with which we either align ourselves or suffer the consequences.

If you would like more information regarding various thought processes, I have recently written an article addressing the issue of "Whatever-Happened-to-Common-Sense?"
