Who cares what NPR thinks? You're like one of those people who chooses their positions based on the opposite of what Trump said. How can you recognize NPR as illegitimate, yet give them control over you?

Pointing out hypocrisy is giving "them control over you"? TFA is posted on npr.org.

They didn’t point out any hypocrisy. At most you could say they made a strong claim conspicuously unsupported by evidence or even a clear statement about what they’re referring to. Actually pointing out hypocrisy would require both a specific claim and supporting evidence.
