I have a book as well. I published it accidentally and still get reminded of it once in a while by random people.

Donald Trump, for the purposes of my entertainment, is the best candidate for POTUS ever

only if he runs with Gary Busey as his running mate

It's not false at all for me but I recognize that my opinion shouldn't be broadcasted as if it had any significance outside of myself

In a sense, isn't the fourth of july already no longer an american holiday? Aren't we all always waging the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind?

Trump has brought me immeasurable joy with his campaign. If he makes my life so joyful as a candidate, just imagine how joyful it will be when he is president!

is that like 'people say' or 'some believe'

No, there's no reasonable interpretation where that's the case

uranus posted:is that like 'people say' or 'some believe' No, "some believe" is farting in the elevator and blaming it on someone else. It's a cowardly way to play devil's advocate or say something incendiary without getting your hands dirty that doesn't fool anyone. "In a sense" is a cheap and easy way to look thoughtful and erudite while saying the most meaningless and idiotic poo poo.

in a sense is a viable shorthand for taking a statement that could reasonably be interpreted in ways different than intended and drawing attention to them Perhaps this is lost on non native speakers
