Jan 11, 2020 at 14:11 | comment | added | nnnnnn | The first version sounds fine. The second version sounds wrong, but I would take the same meaning from it. Can you confirm that your intended meaning is that you are cherry picking evidence that supports the idea that he is out of touch with reality, i.e. you are choosing not to include evidence that doesn't support that view? | |
