Any thoughts on the left calling Trump Hitler and or a fascist? 

 

Thought not. 

Ah yet more whataboutary.

 

Again Trump himself has referred to himself as a King.

 

Any thoughts on that?

You are using the word 'stupid' not me.

If the shoe fits,

Typical high IQ, critical thinking response. 

 

You did not call me stupid, you said I had all the earmarks of being stupid. 

 

But I'll rephrase: 

 

You refuse to address what I said in a relatively long quote and snip out a single line and claim I'm not using my brain.

 

 Is that the level of "critical thinking" you think will help convince me?

 

Rather than just claiming I'm not using my brain, why don't you use your brain and "critical thinking" skill to explain how things would be better had Harris won?

Emails began going out to the 2.3-million federal employees Saturday asking for five bullet points of their accomplishments

 

So brave!  So bold! 

 

Bullying busy employees for bullet points for someone who has no idea what they're talking about because he's a jerk who doesn't want to know.

 

What did Musk do this past week?

 

*Caused confusion and panic for 2.3 million federal employees by demanding a summary of their weekly accomplishments

 

*Appeared with a Chainsaw at CPAC for Meaningless Childish Photo-op 

 

*Arbitrarily Fired thousands of federal employees on Valentine's Day

 

*Musk made SEXYTIME with mother of his 13th child on X

 

*Drastic Workforce Reductions in Federal Agencies like the Federal Aviation Administration because there have been no air safety issues recently 

 

What a DO NOTHING BUM.

 

Hypocrite. 😂

So, as is your MO, you deflect. But okay, my thoughts. 

 

When I hear a leftist such as yourself say something like: "Trump himself has referred to himself as a King.", I assume, based on the least ten years of leftists regurgitating leftist media lies, it's likely just another example of boneheaded gaslighting, and that it has been taken out of context or was part of some kind of joke. 

 

There was a time when I would investigate it and refute it, but those days are long past. 

 

What thoughts do you have on it? Do you think Trump is going to kill everyone that gets in his way and turn the Republic into a monarchy?

I do don't, nor do I know anyone "who can see no fault whatsoever with what Trump is doing"

California has to pay other states to take electricity from them during the day.

 

Biden's "green initiatives" were cancelled because they were ridiculous. Largely benefiting a few connected rich people on the backs of higher energy costs for the poor. 

There is no "war: against trans people. 

 

Biden's changes to Title IX compelled schools to allow men in girls' showers and sports. 

 

Biden changed military policy to mandate that trans military personnel be provided "free" trans surgeries and "medications" 

 

Biden DEI programs mandated the hiring and promotion based on skin-color and or gender. 

I do not like the rhetoric around the Ukraine war, or the Israeli war, but I'll wait to see how they pan out to render judgement.

 

 

I am somewhat concerned, but not nearly as concerned as I would have been had he lost.  

'I do don't, nor do I know anyone "who can see no fault whatsoever with what Trump is doing"' - Really? You got Yagoda, Harrisfan and Frank83628 on 'ignore' have you?

 

'Biden's "green initiatives" were cancelled because they were ridiculous. Largely benefiting a few connected rich people on the backs of higher energy costs for the poor' - just not true. Like everything this is a nuanced subject where I'm sure some improvements could be made but to throw out everything smacks of revenge.

 

' 'There is no "war: against trans people' - well it certainly looks like it. This was already being sorted by all the major sporting governing bodies so why even jump in? It was unneccessary. Completely unneccessary.

 

'Biden DEI programs mandated the hiring and promotion based on skin-color and or gender.' - completely wrong. DEI initiatives ONLY stated that a person of equal skills should not be overlooked for a role based on the colour of their skin or their sexuality. Trump highjacked it to make it sound that less qualified black people were getting jobs over better qualified white people. That's not what it was.

 

'I do not like the rhetoric around the Ukraine war, or the Israeli war, but I'll wait to see how they pan out to render judgement.' - and in the meantime the damage to US reputation on the international arena has already been done. Expect no help in the future from traditional US partners.

 

'I am somewhat concerned, but not nearly as concerned as I would have been had he lost.' - he is the ONLY person talking tariffs against everyones advice. The Dems didn't even have this in mind so this is entirely of Trumps doing and he has to own the consequences.

 

I appreciate the civil discourse though and an admission that you are not entirely indoctinated. I only hope you will stand up IF these things all go south.

What is confusing about providing a summary of one's weekly accomplishments? 

 

Why might an employee panic when asked to provide a summary of their weekly accomplishments?

No true per you. Was closing the border "revenge"?  I was happy the silliness was canceled.

Mandating girls be compelled to shower with men and compete against them is okay?

Transitioning children against the will of their parents is okay? 

Transitioning military personnel with surgeries and expensive medication for life is okay?

Not heard trump say he is a king, I don't follow trump 24/7 like rabid anti trumpers do

But without seeing or hearing it I would say he was taking the piss and the humourless opposition started frothing as it sailed over their heads

[candide]

As usual, Trump was lying at CPAC. 🤣

 

Lying g about the 2024 election (as every election since 2012), his poll numbers (highest “that any Republican president has ever had.”), US vs European aid to Ukraine, US trade deficit with China (he multiplied it by 4), etc....

Ludicrously you accuse me of deflecting when I call out your own attempt at deflection.

Your personal attacks suggest you aren’t very secure in your arguments.

 

That you aren’t aware of Trump referring to himself as a King is only an indication of the bubble you are in.

 

My thoughts on the matter is he’s saying exactly what he believes.

I just can’t understand why he continue to lie when he had already won the election and is POTUS. So I look up for expert diagnosis of such a behavior. 
 

A person might continue to lie even with power due to a combination of factors including: a desire to maintain control, a distorted sense of self, a fear of vulnerability, a manipulative personality, or underlying mental health issues like narcissism, where lying becomes a tool to maintain a fabricated image and exert power over others; even when they could easily tell the truth due to their position.

I see two complementary reasons:

- he builds his own reality, in particular when reality is not kind to him (ex. when he lost the 2020 election);

- it worked well for him so far. Why change something which works?

How to Think Like a Trump Slave

Welcome to the Plantation 

Your Bossman will be Elon Musk over there sitting in the shade with the umbrella and the cool glass of lemonade surrounded by body guards waving fans at him keeping him cool while you're sitting outside in the hot sun with no water.  This is to make you strong, it's for your own good.

 

Now in order to be a compliant slave you must understand The Plan to transfer all financial transactions through Elon Musk's hands on X.

 

You must also understand cryptocurrency and international currency speculation.

 

Let's do a story problem...

 

As of February 21, the baht closed at 33.60 THB per US dollar, slightly stronger than the previous day’s closing rate of 33.66 THB.

 

That means on February 20, if you spend $1M USD/day, that means you got 33,660,000 Baht, but on February 21, you got 33,600,000 Baht.

 

That's $1,787 less per day you have to spend.

 

What is your conclusion?

 

Answer:  Definitely not a good time to go to Pattaya. 😀
