Superman is an illegal immigrant.

Could Trump deport Superman or sign an executive order to protect his right to be an American?

This rhetorical question is asked to lay emphasis on Donald Trump's moral compass. Thus far, he has been baffling us by his deals on foreign wars, international trade, and domestic issues. His actions are consistently unintelligible and defy critical analysis.

So, could Trump deport Superman?

That's an easy question to answer. Trump doesn't have a moral compass so your question itself becomes a moot point.

But you did not give an answer, swirlie. Why won't you incriminate yourself one way or another? Trump would not be afraid to make a call. He is not burdened by the fear that keep us on the straight and narrow.

It's not possible for anyone to incriminate themselves no matter how they answered your hypothetical question. But in fact, I DID answer your question in telling you that Trump has no moral compass, therefore your question is not relevant...which is what moot means.

Why not? I posed the question. In doing so, I set up a hypothetical court of inquiry into your moral compass based on your answer.

But what do you mean by Trump's lack of moral compass? Based on what criterium? Stating that someone has no morality is not enough for incrimination.

No you didn't.

Trump has no conscience, therefore Trump has no moral compass.

No conscience? Do you mean that he is not guided by your moral compass?

Trump has nothing to do with my moral compass. If he did, he'd be as perfect as I am.

A moral compass is a guide for those who need one. If you were perfect, you won't need guidance to act correctly.

Our moral compass is what keeps us perfect because everyone was born perfect until they prove themselves otherwise, which means everyone is born with a moral compass, even those like myself who are perfect, but some of us choose not to use that moral compass we were all born with which is why you do not remain consistently perfect yourself.
