Sharpie Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 There has been talk on here for a long time that Trump has mental or psychological problems. I would suggest with the stress of possibly losing an election, drugs and side effects of Covid, that at this time Trump is in a complete mental breakdown. I cannot stand the man, but I would say to anyone who is a fan of his that if you want to be kind and faithful to him you should be encouraging him to stand down and heal. Like all illnesses mental illness is one that requires gentle care, rest and avoidance of stress the last thing Trump needs is encouragement in his foolishness. You are not being helpful, you are continuing to enable and it can not be for his good but for your own selfish purposes.Oh yes it would not be harmful for the people of America, or indeed the world to curb him now either.

And if I c&p the URL from there into the link box here, it just shows the link. Not the image like above. If I copy a Twitter link or YouTube...no problems. Try doing a long press on the gif, then open image in new tab. In the new tab long press the address then tap edit, then long press the address again, then copy and paste. Sometimes it's necessary to repeat step 2, ie in the second tab long press the gif to open another tab that only displays the gif. Sounds more complicated than the reality.

(And I’m an oldie myself before anyone complains) Elite American politics does seem to be in a very worrying mess. The western democracies must be filling the Kremlin with some glee these days. When people of my age long for the days of the political standards of the 70s and 80s, it’s a big concern. That’s how I’ve felt recently.

How Americans preserved British English Shakespeare’s accent probably sounded more American than modern British Where did the British accent come from? It started in the 1800s Around the early 1800s that sort of accent became popular in southern England and along our East Coast and was thought to be quite proper and posh. That became Received Pronunciation. In America the spread of industrialization shifted the power centers to the Midwest, which was largely settled by people of Scot-Irish heritage who still pronounced “r” as “r.” Au contraire—we ignorant colonial savages saved the true language of Northern Britain!

The Entire Presidency Is a Superspreading Event: Down in the polls, high on steroids, and clinging to good health while endangering everyone else’s. "I could be one of the diers," [Trump] said. The person on the other end of the line couldn’t forget that unusual word the president used: dier. A seldom-said dictionary standard, it was a classic Trumpism, at once sinister and childlike. If being a loser was bad, being a dier was a lot worse. Losers can become winners again. Diers are losers forever. But aren’t we all diers in the end? Donald Trump, the least self-reflective man in America, was contemplating his own mortality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what's it with the colour coordination of the crowd with the red hats and light blue t-shirts. Last time I seen anything like that was in St. Peter's Square at an address by the Pope.

I'm more than confident they have been fully aware of and even involved in some of his questionable activity. He would be looking for them to be pardoned as well. While I don't believe this is true right now I feel there might be moves in that direction if he loses the election. If/when that happens he will have zero interest in the transfer of power in terms of the best interests of the county. Hell he has never had any interest in the best interests of the country. After losing the election his major interest over the following two months will be how do I extricate myself from as much crooked shit as possible before they remove all power. If he has even a semblance of a brain he must know that even more information concerning the extreme dysfunction and outright batshit craziness of his tenure will come to light. Some people are predicting a blizzard of pardons across many crimes in the final days. I still don't know if he can actually pardon himself. And you have to wonder what's in it for Pence to take over during the final days just to pardon Trump? What sort of legacy would that be when ever more detail of Trumps crooked activities come to light? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
