samran Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Ever since he uttered those words, this 80s Australian joke hit kept going around in my head. It includes the lyrics: ‘If you're lucky some day you might see me on the street My crystal clear complexion is as snow white as a sheet 'Cause some say I'm a genius, to others I'm a loon’ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilostmypassword Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Trump has already authored his own tell-all If many of the statements Trump has made publicly in the past few weeks were contained in a tell-all, we would suspect the author of malicious exaggeration. The president has recently taunted FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe for “racing the clock to retire with full benefits,” attacked the “Deep State Justice Department,” taken credit for the lack of commercial airline crashes, urged “Jail!” for former Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin, called for the sacking of two journalists, claimed the news media will eventually “let me win” reelection to keep up their ratings, displayed a sputtering inability to describe his own health-care reform plan, claimed that a cold snap disproves global warming, boasted of having “a much bigger & more powerful” nuclear button than Kim Jong Un, tried to prevent the publication of Wolff’s book, and insisted he is “like, really smart” and “a very stable genius.” https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/forget-fire-and-fury-trump-authored-his-own-tell-all-long-ago/2018/01/08/8ca05476-f4b6-11e7-b34a-b85626af34ef_story.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 (edited) As far as his mental deterioration, however you want to label it or not, that's an objective fact. Just watch interviews with him 20 to 30 years ago compared to recently. There is a dramatic difference in vocabulary and sentence structure. Many older people remain as sharp as ever going into their 80s, 90s, and beyond. Not trump and he's only in his early 70s now. That is a fact. https://theweek.com/articles/699175/time-start-talking-about-trumps-mental-health "Perhaps most tellingly, Trump's speech patterns are vastly different now than they were years ago. All the above might be excused if they were single instances — healthy people occasionally mix up names or get disoriented, too. However, Trump did not used to be like this."

Jingthing Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 It isn't exactly earth shaking news that trump is unfit to be president. Many prominent REPUBLICANS were saying exactly that before he got nominated and elected, even explicitly calling him CRAZY. Now this -- Quote WATCH: Top Democrat Says Most Of Congress Thinks Trump Is Mentally Unfit “I don’t think anyone is particularity surprised by what has been revealed in the Wolff book, in terms of what people closest with Trump have about his capacity to do the job,” Schiff told host Jake Tapper. “I don’t think there’s anyone in Congress, frankly of either party, who does not concur at least privately with those observations and concerns. Certainly very few are willing to express it publicly in Congress — to the detriment of our institution.” https://forward.com/fast-forward/391666/watch-top-democrat-says-most-of-congress-thinks-trump-is-mentally-unfit/?attribution=home-top-story-9-headline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Past President's have had crisis in the past and they handled them,some good some bad. I don't need any proof to know that someone is a sandwich short of a picnic. We make those assessments subconsciously on people all the time, in the pub at work, wherever we are, and 9,9 times out of 10 we are correct.. 5 hours ago, atyclb said: you are amazing since many doctors i know tell me an x ray is required to know if an arm is broken. Not that amazing, clearly your arm was 'slightly broke', if I were to hit it 3 times with a baseball bat it would be seriously broke and you would not need any Doctor with an x-ray to tell you your arm is broke believe me. Same as Trumps head, it is seriously broke, no Doctor needs to tell me otherwise. The fact I think it is worry enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To go from one of the wealthiest and successful business men in the USA ,to non politician candidate to POTUS . What is truly amazing about comments like this is that they take no account that Trump was born into immense wealth. And that once his father retired from the family real estate business Trump rapidly managed to plunge it into bankruptcy by overpaying for prestige properties. Some genius negotiator. Banks refused to do business with him. Until, oddly enough, Deutsche bank started to lend him money. Probably completely unrelated that Deutsche bank has very strong ties to Russia. They just lent him money because of his winning smile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opl Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 "“Trump also appears deeply reluctant to learn anything more about a given country or conflict. He has come to despise National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster, according to Wolff, because McMaster’s briefings are full of dry information about various global hotspots.That guy bores the shit out of me,” the president reportedly declared after meeting the general for the first time, an impression that hasn’t changed over the course of time. Within six weeks, Wolff writes, Trump was threatening to fire McMaster for being too boring." https://www.vox.com/world/2018/1/8/16863064/fire-and-fury-book-trump-michael-wolff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
