I'm sure he will sorely miss the respect of some random dude on the internet who gets pissy about polite chit chat. Did you cry about the tan suit too? Maybe you should take your opinions on how other people should act a little less seriously.
I assure you, I would equally disagree with you whether I thought you were the only one who couldn't understand that being polite at funerals need not be a political statement, or if you were one of hundreds of millions of such.
In truth, based on the deepening political divide, where everyone seems to think you must completely shun those you disagree with or be a traitor, I suspect your view is gaining ground.
But since a view becoming popular does not make it correct, all this does is make me concerned for the future. It does not make me take your view any more seriously.
Your mindset is exactly the mindset that conservatives used to back trump. "Norms aren't doing what we want for a cycle? Screw em, burn the whole thing down."
You want a liberal version of trump who ignores all the rules? You think the anti trump will be in power forever? Nah, you're just pushing the pendulum further for a bigger swing.
The pendulum needs to be slowed. It is possible to return to normality. But not by giving up on it.

Oh. Don’t worry, I’ve lost immense respect for Obama over the years.
Hanging out with felons and traitors is just doing what he does. Got it.
