If you are doubting the reception of what you're about to say, you should likely rethink your position.

NGL, I don't think this is right. In THIS CASE I think it makes sense, because taking a stance with trump is reprehensible. But changing your opinion ONLY because it might be unpopular is a bad path IMHO.

We should all check our biases and rethink and research our opinions frequently, but the popularity of a position shouldn't really make a difference.

Fair, never bad to make that decision.
