      Probably not related, but I tell people I got a new car when it was definitely certified pre-owned.

      Nope, but that’s a false analogy since the only part of the presidential “car” that’s always the same in the second (or third or fourth) term is the driver.

      Some presidents have replaced what amounts to most of the motor and the body for their subsequent terms, making it the second car for that driver but not a different driver.

        You’re treating this like an argument, so I don’t see any point in trying to help you with this or anything else.

          All you’ve done is try to argue that it makes perfect sense using false logic. If you think that’s you somehow “helping me” and not an argument, I agree that there’s no point in continuing.

          Disagreement ≠ lack of knowledge or understanding.
