You have absolutely no idea what I have.

I’d rather you spent less time fantasizing about me doing things in basements.

 

I have an idea that you have far less than him. His level folks dont lower themselves into the internet sewer because they have nothing else. 

 

But hey, have fun, if folks dont have money, power, love or self respect, they become net trolls. Light the green lamp of jealousy LOL

Trump would be richer if he had taken the money his KKK Daddy gave him and let it sit passively in a stock market index fund.

While not a Trump supporter, I do agree with this.

 

Trump lost 3 elections in a row. After foiling his party's chance to take over congress in the last mid term election, Republicans were sick of him. No one was showing up at his rallys. He was down in the Republican primary polls. If Democrats and the media turned their backs on him and ignored him he'd be another Al Gore or John Kerry.

 

But instead they started dragging him into court on questionable cases. He deserved arrest over classified documents, but not Biden. He screamed unequal justice and rejuvenated his campaign. 

 

And the more court battles he wins; SCOTUS unanimously overturning the Colorado court, NY appellate court so far partially overturning the NYC court ruling, the more his claims look justified and the more his poll numbers increase. 

 

Democrats and the media should have turned their backs on him and let him wither on the vine of inattention.

Somehow I don't think that sort are interested in posting on AN, though the posts of some persons certainly provide the mother lode for a psychology thesis.

 

I'm more interested in the psychology of those on here with TDS and consumed with hatred for a man that they don't know. I mean they are so obsessed with him so much that they just can't stop writing about him, even on threads with absolutely nothing to do with him. I'm sure that sometimes we have entire pages that are solely about Trump. Even the media love Trump as they write so much about him. Sometimes it seems that the only game in media life is writing about Trump. For sure CNN need him given their apparent drop off in viewers after he lost the election.

 

If I were going to do a study on the psychological aspect of Trump mania, it would be on the use of psychology to try and destroy Trump's image, by the very subtle and clever propaganda that is utilised against him.

 

Luckily for Trump, he appears to have a very thick skin, or else he really is a narcissist and loves the attention, regardless of for or against. He certainly appears to thrive on it.

What about the pshychology of someone who stresses he's not a Trumper, and yet has written an immense number of posts supporting Trump? 😀

I wouldn't dismiss the possibility that millions and millions of Americans that don't have TDS are right.  And millions of foreigners see through the lawfare travesty. Maybe they're on the right side of history.

 

Trumps foibles have played out in public, on TV and in the news for decades.

 

And each time they lay another bogus charge onto Trump, his numbers go up. Voters seeing through the nefarious treatment. Yet another indicator...

 

 

Contact Comer and Jordan! They desperately need witnesses! 😀

Narcissist Trump and Brain-impaired Biden are not my problem. I'm voting for RFKjr.

It's amazing that these OP's can be generated from totally opinionated baseless garbage.

 

Or maybe not.

The only loser will be your hero, and once he's no longer POTUS he can be investigated up the ying yang for his involvement in Hunter's shenanigans and hopefully off to home detention for whatever is left of his life.

Do you have any evidence that Joe Biden is involved in Hunter Biden's business?

It's not my habit to defend Trump, but we must be honest and admit he already passed a quite difficult test!

 

The last questions are much more difficult,” he said. “Like a memory question. It’s, uh, like you’ll go, ‘Person, woman, man, camera, TV.’ So they say, ‘Could you repeat that?’ So I said, ‘Yeah.’ So it’s ‘person, woman, man, camera, TV.’ ‘Okay, that’s very good.’”The doctors said very few people can do that, very few people get that,” Trump elaborated, with evident pride.

Forensic psychologist assessments are used in legal cases to determine outcome. Assessment can be done by personality observation which there are plentiful in Trump’s case.

Trumps mental state is a true problem.

Talking to dead people, confusing Macron with Mitterand, forgetting where he stored confidential papers, forgetting his son's day of death, walking to the wrong direction and tumbling down again and again.

Oh sorry, all that was not the ornage devil...

If you are paying attention to polls this early in the campaign, you have much to learn.

Of course you are.

I am the only person on the planet who doesn't. 

Millions of people clinging to his every word.

Millions of people clinging to every news story about him, when he himself told people that most news is fake.

How do recent polls compare with polls in early 2023?

I don't want to see Trump reelected, so I find his rise in polls alarming and an indication that Democrat strategy to prevent that from happening isn't working. 

 

If it doesn't bother you, I guess you are representative of the Democratic establishment. I hope you're right and I'm wrong. 

 

In the meantime, what are you using in to guage voter sentiment in place of polling?

Trump is a retarded lunatic. Biden is a geriatric old man. 

 

Why is there no normal people to vote for? 

 

Same in the UK. We got no real good choices. 

 

It's the best of two rubbish people. 

 

What is the point of democracy if it leads to this kind of stuff?? 

 

The phrase 'stuck between a rock and a hard place' :comes to mind.

The website takes time before showing all tables and graphs. There's a table with all polls by date, and also an historical graph before ( attached below).

Having said that, I have no idea whether the recent short-term trend will go on or not.

 

Actually the trend change is due to the decrease of the "unsure" category In replies. It seems that the "unsure" are progressively making a choice, and more of them choose Biden rather than Trump.

Thanks for the historical graph. IMO it backs up the point I made in my original post on this topic.

Right. Trump went up until recently. Since January, both were actually going up, and Biden recently went up faster than Trump. There has been no Trump decline so far.

True. But not particularly relevant to my original post which is below.

Your graph, going back to the days following the Trump camp's underwhelming performance in the most recent mid terms, supports what I quoted above. That ^ is my point.

I see. I wonder how many psychological assessments done without personal interviews would be admissible into evidence in a judicial proceeding. But no mind, your answer is just another example of the green God of jealousy spewing hate. It must be so difficult for you guys to to face the fact that financially, among other things, you aren't fit to wipe the Dust off of the soles of his shoes.

 

Wonder how much money you have in your checking account. I bet you the orange Godzilla has more. And I bet his old lady is better looking than your girlfriend. I bet his Butler lives nicer than you. Yet you call him crazy.

Strawman alert.

 

The assessment of Trump’s mental condition is not being used in a prosecution case against him, your argument re court of law is your strawman.

 

I see you are back to wondering how much money other people who disagree with you have in the bank.

 

Bank balance is not a prerequisite to being allowed to hold and express an opinion.

 

I hear your guy makes all sorts of claims about having $500 million cash, but can’t pay bonds below that amount - what gives?
