There is always the other side, always.
To oppose something is to maintain it... You must go somewhere else; you must have another goal; then you walk a different road.
I mean, I'm not a contrarian.
I object to every single thing you just said.
Tell him he's wrong. Tell him that even if he's right about waiting, he's right for the wrong reasons, and that makes him all the way wrong.
I try to counter what Donald Trump says that might have an effect on somebody.
Sometimes people will find things that are wrong. Sometimes they will even find an approach that you took wrong. If you think you took the right approach, then you just absorb the criticism, but you don't change your mind.
I hope you're representing the devil's advocate.
My experience is the opposite.
If you don't agree, present what you think is a better way.
If you really understand something, you can: 1) explain it using a clear metaphor and 2) explain the strongest counter-argument to the idea.
My dissenting opinions, like my briefs, are intended to persuade. And sometimes one must be forceful about saying how wrong the Court's decision is.
I want to try to counter what Donald Trump says because a lot of it is mean-spirited and would hurt people.
Discover the opinion of your enemies, which is commonly the truest; for they will give you no quarter, and allow nothing to complaisance.
I hate people who say 'Just to play devil's advocate.'
