Title: The Real Reason Trump Ordered Strike
Post by SadKangaroo on Jan 11th, 2020 at 9:02am
Trump said he ordered strike on Iranian general to help with impeachment




Quote:
The Trump White House has maintained the strike on Iranian General Soleimani came as a result of intelligence showing he posed an “imminent” threat to the United States.

But so far the administration has been unable to show any intelligence or evidence to back up that claim. Even Republican senators have been left fuming over the lack of evidence, with one calling it “absolutely insane”.

One claim they furiously denied: it was an attempt to distract from the impeachment trial.

Except, the Wall Street Journal confirms that impeachment was at the top of his mind when Trump ordered the drone strike.

Its long story published Thursday on events surrounding the strike contains this line:

Mr. Trump, after the strike, told associates he was under pressure to deal with Gen. Soleimani from GOP senators he views as important supporters in his coming impeachment trial in the Senate, associates said.

In other words, Trump ordered the strike to bolster support from wavering GOP allies.

Worth noting, the claim is being made in a pro-Trump newspaper owned by Rupert Murdoch. It speaks for itself.

Im pretty good at reading and comprehending the English language and i cant see how that statement implicated Trump in organising the strike for his personal political gain. He very well may have , I dont know but this sort of thing just gives him ammunition for his "fake news" argument. I think just stick to the facts and avoid this type of specious reasoning.

Of course he murdered the General for his own political gain.

I said so from the beginning.

He did it for three main reasons:

1. take the heat off impeachment

2. enhance his re-election prospects

3. leave a legacy as a President who fought a war, rather than be remembered as a failed businessman, coward, and alleged child rapist

Donald Trump only ever does things that will benefit him personally.

That was at a time when the Democrats may have been worth voting for.

Trump is neither Republican or Democrat in the traditional sense. He's an outsider surrounded by career mostly compromised politicians and influence peddling bureaucrats.

He wasn't seeking the Presidency, he never expected to win.  It was meant to be a platform to launch his TV Network.

Problem is he won.

This is why his platform is so lacking in substance, he never expected to need one.

You're saying Trump took a folly formed platform to the people and to office?

A wall, that he couldn't get funding for even with Republican controlled all levels of Government for over 2 years.

Repealing and replacing ObamaCare with something that would be better and cover everyone, tell that to the millions who lost their coverage when he repealed it then walked away because it was hard, who knew?

And looking after the forgotten people by loading them with more debt after the cost neutral tax cuts for the rich didn't deliver the returns claimed and his spending has been out of control reversing the trend under Obama and reaching record non war time levels.

That's practically the entity of his platform and he's failed at every measure.

And that ignores all the golfing, the funneling of money through his hotels and all the time he's taken off after the song and dance about Obama golfing and holidaying too much and Trump would be too busy to do that.

If you honestly think he was expecting to be President you should be demanding more from him and speaking out about what a poor job he's doing.

Universally agreed - the Granuaid/ABC told you. Echo chamber. Look at the response from Iran - they killed a lot of their own people with Canadian passports daring to fly an Ukrainian plane. Killing their own people seems a pretty reliable response from them to almost anything.

MORE danger?? What? The Iranians have not been chanting 'Death to Americaaaaa" for 40 years? Just started now?   Oh, and the 'death to America' spittle-flecked crowd stampeded to death 56 of their own.  That REALLY showed America what 'more danger' means in Farsi.

This was the Trump remake of the Obama/Clinton production of "13 Hours" on the Benghazi attack on the US in 2012 in Labia.

Gregory has pointed out that Donald only does things which benefit him personally

This I would contend is true of all human beings

I'm not trying to hide behind some sham of benevolence for the other
Trump is able to ramp up his authenticity whilst doing so

It's a mistake to pretend to the electorate that you are better than you actually are
I think this is one of the most emotionally intelligent things that trump does

He does not pretend to be anything other then what he is
That's called authentic and it is extremely rare in the political realm

Your average American.
Your average real American is probably always sizing people up

You get the members of the lefty intellectual elite
Who try to present this facade that their life is all about protecting a lifting up the oppressed
Hollywood is a classic example

The most privileged the richest people scalding middle America

The ivy League leftist intellectuals are another classic example
The most privileged richest people in America scalding middle America

Middle America just won't buy it
Real Americans can see the untenable position of the lefty intellectual elite
They see that trump speak to them in plain spoken language
He is very careful to always present himself as a flawed individua l
And the fact that he acts out of self-interest
He just owns that

They can respect that
They will certainly respect that enough to give him another 4 years

I stand by that statement

Politicians of the emotional persuasion of say Gregory or yourself or Skippy
Present to the world a persona of the perfect man
Americans are pretty cynical
They ain't buying that BS

Particularly when they detect the seething resentful bitter hateful vibration
That lurks beneath this facade

Trump does the exact opposite
He's a goofy guy
He talks at the level of a grade 4 student
He deliberately messes things up
Because he understands that this is what humans are like
He never pretended he was a saint
He likes to hang out with KFC
He admits he likes the women
He likes his gold toilet
He's always teasing provoking

He doesn't scald the American people
He just likes to tell stories that entertain the American people
In this way he enriches their lives

How does Elizabeth Warren or Joe biden plan to add value to the lives of real Americans
By being boring chodes
Appearing on TV or Twitter and boring them to death
By being nice guys

Americans don't want nice guys for friends
And they certainly don't want them for leaders

2. enhance his re-election prospects

3. leave a legacy as a President who fought a war, rather than be remembered as a failed businessman, coward, and alleged child rapist

Donald Trump only ever does things that will benefit him personally.

A perfect example for you Carmel

The virtuous nice gentleman persona presented to the world by the perfect nice gentleman and very virtuous Gregory

And yet easily detectable is the bitter resentment and hatred bubbling just below the surface
Wishing the president of the United States where dead

This is the dilemma that the left face
Their inability to man up and own up to the fact that it is hatred that is driving them
They aren't fooling real America

Real America cease and is frothing at the mouth
Or pelosi frothing at the mouth
Or Warren frothing at the mouth

And they just aren't going to buy this nice guy narrative

All I see is what we see when we look at Gregory
A lack of emotional mastery
And unfocused discontent
It's very unattractive ;)

Mr Trump's based his entire brand on being the best, dear. Gold toilets, biggest private yacht, fake Renoirs, the lot. He only ran for Prez to add more cache to the brand.

He promised the world: a big beautiful wall - not a fence - that he'd get Mexico to pay for. If there's one thing Mr Trump knows, it's how to build things and get others to pay.

Repeal and replace Obamacare - only Mr Trump could do this because he knows how to work with Republicans, believe me.

Fix the mess in North Korea - created by Obama, of course, because he couldn't negotiate his way out of a wet paper bag. Mr Trump knows how East Asian communist dictators work. Only he can save America from certain nuclear annihilation.

Create jobs for all Americans. The unemployment figures are rigged. Mr Trump will create jobs just by being in the White House. In fact, his daughter Ivanka just created 17 million jobs (a little more than all US jobs created in the past three years, but you get the idea).

Mr Trump will be too busy making America great again to play golf, you'll see. World leaders will treat the White House with respect again. We'll win so much we'll get tired of winning.

Highest ever ratings in TV history, biggest-selling book, a landslide erection victory, biggest inauguration crowd ever, etc, etc, etc.

No you have it wrong again Carmel

When trump addresses the crowd he's basically just being an off the cuff bullshitartist
And people recognise this

When Warren or pelosi or biden address the crowd
They are very earnest and sincere
If you ask them where they just mucking around and telling tall stories they would be horrified
Because they aren't
They are elucidating and ideological position

Trump doesn't have an ideological position
That's what makes him so damned attractive
He just talks crap and people love it

I saw him commenting on the current crisis with the duchess of Sussex
He said he had met the queen and she was a lovely lady and he had met the duchess and she was also lovely and he was sure they would work it out

He's talking about the Queen of England
In the same way someone would talk about two toddlers in a sandpit having a squabble
That's just so folksy
It's also subtly incredibly dominant
It sets him up as the ruler of planet earth
When you can talk about the Queen of England and set her up in a frame where she is envisioned by the population as a naughty toddler
It sets you up as the extreme dominator

Trump does this all the time
He creates frames where the status of his opponents is demolished
And he assumes value
Even value which she probably does not deserve
But that only makes him twice as dominant
Because when you act like the king
And you are totally congruent with that belief
Everyone else falls into your frame
It's the secret of his success

No one understands how the unthinking masses are so easily sucked into a frame
As trump does

I really think he continues to get support because people see this incompetent, unhealthy, stupid failure of a man who can't tell the truth and I think it gives them hope that without changing anything about themselves, they can become a billionaire.

But, and this is where Trump rhetoric comes in, this hasn't happened, not because of them or anything they've done, but because of immigrants or the woke left wanting equality for everyone, not an advantage for them.

The more Scoot tries to justify his ever-changing standards on Trump, the more the above starts to stand out.

Have you stopped to ask why?

Everyone has an ideological position.  Be it based on their personal morality or because their parents passed it down to them. 

Trump does have an ideological position, it's just not the traditional left or right, liberal or conservative, it's simply, "Trump winning".

He doesn't have to actually win, he just has to say he's winning.  And he'll do whatever it takes to keep it that way.

This is how he's run his businesses and how he crafts his persona/presidency.

When he can't fake he's winning, he lies about his opponents "losing", or being low IQ, ugly, blah blah blah take your pick.

This is what is at the core of the man and it should terrify his supporters.

And therein lies the crux of your problem Scoot.

You are equating a politician who is good at campaigning to one who is good at leading.

They are a separate skillset. What you need to win an election is the opposite of what it takes to be a good leader.

This is why you usually see a transition early on after a candidates shift to the top office.

But with Trump that hasn't happened. 

He's STILL holding rallies, he's still lying and he still doesn't have any thought out policy, something that was astoundingly bad BEFORE he assassinated the Iranian General, and now, on the brink of war, it's just unconscionable to know that the leadership is asleep at the wheel.

You have nowhere else to go Scoot.  You've backflipped so much the only thing left to do is start supporting the dems.

All the eager reactlonaries hoping for conflagration 'coz Iran' can now sit down and look for some other manufactured outrage to whine about.

Drone technology evolved during Obama's presidency and he embraced it with both hands, he was nuts for them!

He probably woke up every morning thinking, which Arabs arse will I shove a Hellfire up today.

If Obama offed the Iranian, the lefties would have a little inaudible tut tut and and go back to their gay unicorn studies.

Another clear example of Trump derangement syndrome.

Mr Trump's based his entire brand on being the best, dear. Gold toilets, biggest private yacht, fake Renoirs, the lot. He only ran for Prez to add more cache to the brand.

He promised the world: a big beautiful wall - not a fence - that he'd get Mexico to pay for. If there's one thing Mr Trump knows, it's how to build things and get others to pay.

Repeal and replace Obamacare - only Mr Trump could do this because he knows how to work with Republicans, believe me.

Fix the mess in North Korea - created by Obama, of course, because he couldn't negotiate his way out of a wet paper bag. Mr Trump knows how East Asian communist dictators work. Only he can save America from certain nuclear annihilation.

Create jobs for all Americans. The unemployment figures are rigged. Mr Trump will create jobs just by being in the White House. In fact, his daughter Ivanka just created 17 million jobs (a little more than all US jobs created in the past three years, but you get the idea).

Mr Trump will be too busy making America great again to play golf, you'll see. World leaders will treat the White House with respect again. We'll win so much we'll get tired of winning.

Highest ever ratings in TV history, biggest-selling book, a landslide erection victory, biggest inauguration crowd ever, etc, etc, etc.

Ever get the feeling you've been cheated?

You are really struggling with your deep resentment issues, paki.  You simply cannot strop scratching, no matter how raw you already are.

Can we tweak your statement from it being a mistake to pretend to the electorate (and world leaders, the US congress, the senate, the courts, and pretty much everybody else) to being a sign of GREATNESS?




policies, polcies, logical arguements, yawn yawn.

they dont matter.

people vote their temperament
they vote their emotional state.

you dont convince people by presenting the facts
you dont persuade people by presenting policies.

you look deep into their eyes, understand them at their core and reflect back to them their underlying personal psychology.

trump is an excellent psychologist.

trumps awesome entertaining, emotion spiking routine is part of "the doctor is the drug".

so awesome
a paradigm shift.

study it for 4 years.

but beware karnal.
this is just the beginning.

trump is a bit of an odd guy and a bit undisplined.

but he is trailblazing for the next conservative leader who will "study him for 4 years" and then combine a much shrewder intellect with the raw lessons of the donald.

that will be a formidable foe that the intellectual elite of the left will have no counter to.

in a way, putin is trump mark 2.

strong, noble, patriotic, confident, competant.

against the weak sauce , hand wringing snowflakery of leftie identity politics, the next president may be more putin like.

and that should see an end to the leftie universities and corrupted leftie school system  ;)


I didn't mention policies and logical arguments, dear. I asked if lying is not a mistake per se, but a mark of GREATNESS.

Mr Trump can offer Fat Steve all the fast food he wants. Here, Fat Steve, have a voucher - two cheeseburgers for the price of one!

Or he can offer Joe Sixpack some cans of Jim Beam and Cola - vote 1 Trump! Or promise Joe Lunchbox a job - start on Monday, Joe. Speak to Ivanka!

I know, I know, the new political paradigm, masterful, cometh the hour. But my question is what happens if you don't deliver?

If you never meant it all along? If you were just bullshitting to the crowd?

What's the strategy for when they find out?
[/quote]


yet again you show your lack of emotional intelligence.

steve doesnt want cheeseburgers from trump.
joe 6 pack doesnt want jim beam.

what do people WANT from a leader?
they dont want "things"
they dont want "stuff".

they want to "feel the emotional state they are addicted to".

a master persuader like trump "gets it".

they want a leader who is strong powerful cocky confident and entertaining because that "feels" so much better then a leftie intellectual who scalds them, tells them the climate is collapsing and that they are a deplorable stain on the earth.

trump is presenting an authentic unshakeable consistent message

"MAGA" and "we are going to win so much".

he is tapping into peoples emotions and temperament and people vote their emotions and temperament.

i dont think trump even worries himself with insignificant crap like policy.

should michelangelo worry about the parking at St Peters in rome.
he is operating at an inspirational emotional level.

trumps role is to inspire and "raise the vibration".
its nothing to do with all that civil service rot.

Well, Clinton is quite obviously better at all those things, because 3,000,000 more people voted for her.

what do people WANT from a leader?
they dont want "things"
they dont want "stuff".

they want to "feel the emotional state they are addicted to".

a master persuader like trump "gets it".

they want a leader who is strong powerful cocky confident and entertaining because that "feels" so much better then a leftie intellectual who scalds them, tells them the climate is collapsing and that they are a deplorable stain on the earth.

trump is presenting an authentic unshakeable consistent message

"MAGA" and "we are going to win so much".

he is tapping into peoples emotions and temperament and people vote their emotions and temperament.

i dont think trump even worries himself with insignificant crap like policy.

should michelangelo worry about the parking at St Peters in rome.
he is operating at an inspirational emotional level.

trumps role is to inspire and "raise the vibration".
its nothing to do with all that civil service rot.
thats a job for the chodes.


And yet 3,000,000 more people voted for Hillary.

I guess she was more inspirational.

She must have been better at tapping into people's emotions and temperament.[/quote]


Oh indeed, Hilary was one of the most qualified candidates ever.
Everyone thought she would win.
She was like darius with this massive army and trump was like Alexander.

All he had was some bravado and some self belief.

But that was enough to secure an unlikely win.
One that echoed through the centuries.

And we all study these awesome victories.

Trumps name will live on in eternity.
Hilary will get a few paragraphs to be sure.

The name of peccary and aqua scoot will be quickly forgotten .

We can only marvel at the " superman" that is the Donald

Good idea, Aquascoot. We'll ask the old boy.

Old boy, as a soon-to-be-assimilated Australian PATRIOT, do you not care whether or not Mr Trump SAVES IRAN? Or BUILDS THE WALL? Or bans the Muselman UNTIL WE CAN WORK OUT WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?

Personally, I think Aquascoot's right. I don't think you give a hoot.

People can rally round the flag.
They can be inspired by the idea of their team

Team America.

You can't be inspired by some remodelled health insurance scheme.

It's not just the crowd though,  is it?

To the Mexican president: Look, just say that you'll pay for it, we'll sort out the details, don't worry about it.

To the Great Leader of the Democratic Republic of North Korea: Just say you're thinking about stopping the nukes. We'll wait and see, okay?

To the Ukrainian president: ...but I have a small favour to ask. This Crowdstrike thing, some say it's based in the Ukraine... Speak to Rudy... announce an investigation into Sleepy Joe... look, there was no quid-pro-quo... fake news... a witch hunt... an act of treason... so unfair...

Could we say he's an all-round bullshitartist, do you think?

Can we tweak your statement from it being a mistake to pretend to the electorate (and world leaders, the US congress, the senate, the courts, and pretty much everybody else) to being a sign of GREATNESS?




policies, polcies, logical arguements, yawn yawn.

they dont matter.

people vote their temperament
they vote their emotional state.

you dont convince people by presenting the facts
you dont persuade people by presenting policies.

you look deep into their eyes, understand them at their core and reflect back to them their underlying personal psychology.

trump is an excellent psychologist.

trumps awesome entertaining, emotion spiking routine is part of "the doctor is the drug".

so awesome
a paradigm shift.

study it for 4 years.

but beware karnal.
this is just the beginning.

trump is a bit of an odd guy and a bit undisplined.

but he is trailblazing for the next conservative leader who will "study him for 4 years" and then combine a much shrewder intellect with the raw lessons of the donald.

that will be a formidable foe that the intellectual elite of the left will have no counter to.

in a way, putin is trump mark 2.

strong, noble, patriotic, confident, competant.

against the weak sauce , hand wringing snowflakery of leftie identity politics, the next president may be more putin like.

and that should see an end to the leftie universities and corrupted leftie school system  ;)


I didn't mention policies and logical arguments, dear. I asked if lying is not a mistake per se, but a mark of GREATNESS.

Mr Trump can offer Fat Steve all the fast food he wants. Here, Fat Steve, have a voucher - two cheeseburgers for the price of one!

Or he can offer Joe Sixpack some cans of Jim Beam and Cola - vote 1 Trump! Or promise Joe Lunchbox a job - start on Monday, Joe. Speak to Ivanka!

I know, I know, the new political paradigm, masterful, cometh the hour. But my question is what happens if you don't deliver?

If you never meant it all along? If you were just bullshitting to the crowd?

What's the strategy for when they find out?



yet again you show your lack of emotional intelligence.

steve doesnt want cheeseburgers from trump.
joe 6 pack doesnt want jim beam.

what do people WANT from a leader?
they dont want "things"
they dont want "stuff".

they want to "feel the emotional state they are addicted to".

If you look at a social interaction, there are the people who are buzzing off their own awesome energy.

Then there are people who are try hards, or  too reactive, or if things go wrong they can't deal with it and they tend to complain and cry.
People who get easily upset if things don't " go their way"

I call them chodes.
I sometimes call them " scrubs"
I can use that term if you want.

They are sort of losers but its deeper then that,
Some people can be losers but they are still cool.

The chode is a loser but he's really butthurt about it.
He's a bad sport.
The sort of kid who gets out for a duck ( loser) but then spits the dummy then tries to blame someone else for getting out, then cries to his mummy , and then gets bitter and resentful when a team mate gets 100,

If you have a fat wife and a camry and you make a derogatory comment about some successful guy who has a hot wife and a chopper ( like Donald) , then you are definitely a chode

I'm trying to help my leftie brethren understand why people vote the way they do.

Karnal and skippy believe people rationally study the facts and then draw conclusions.

I believe people have a temperament and a set of emotional addictions and they go " inside their body" and see who vibes with their emotional state and then they back rationalise the behaviour.

If I'm right , nd I think I am, then the ability of the leader to understand the emotional state of the voter is paramount.

And with social media and algorhythms amping up this emotional state, this is now the only game in town.

The sort of kid who gets out for a duck ( loser) but then spits the dummy then tries to blame someone else for getting out, then cries to his mummy , and then gets bitter and resentful when a team mate gets 100,

If you have a fat wife and a camry and you make a derogatory comment about some successful guy who has a hot wife and a chopper ( like Donald) , then you are definitely a chode

She hates him. I suspect the porn star thing was the last straw.

Donald has likely already moved on - his wife has got a bit old for him.


No! YOU hate him! You're projecting again.

I suspect that a classy woman with high standards like Melania would adore her husband!

Yes yes, I know, the voters don't notice - mindless chodes who live lives of pure garbage. Or as Hillary said, deplorables.

But the question I'm asking you is what if they find out?

When it comes to convincing those who support Trump to vote for him, correct.

When it comes to determining the best person to run the country, they and their party's policies are what is important.

You're trying to again retcon what matters to fit Trump, rather than finding someone who matches what matters.

It's policy-based evidence all over again.

Stop stop stop.

Trump does not exude masculinity.  You associate leadership with masculinity so you have to pretend that Trump is an example of masculine alpha.

In reality, he's a giant man-baby, complaining and whinging like a teenage girl on twitter.  There is nothing masculine about him, he's shouty yes, but he a lazy overweight slob.

And you know this.  I don't know why you rabbit on with this bullshit about him being strong and masculine, and I don't know what brain injury you've suffered that you'd link his lying and con artist ways as "noble".

Pick what traits in a person you value and then stick to it.  Stop always changing it every time you simply can no longer fool yourself or pretending Trump, someone you so desperately worship, is the embodiment of them.

I and I'm sure many others remember you attacking Clinton over what you said was her dishonesty.  Now you applaud Trump for lying.

It's like nothing but supporting Trump matters to you.

I see. So you believe it's a mistake to lie to the voters.

Unless you're just bullshitting to the crowd (and to Congress, the senate and your fellow world leaders, etc).

But it doesn't matter if you tell porkies as long as you can write awesome tweets.

People shouldn't actually read them, just feel their vibe, penetrating one with raw, bold, powerful, awesome masculine EnErGy.

And if the leftards seek to clarify, they're just butthurt chodes who think they're so much smarter than Mr Trump, so elitist and unfair, so old-fashioned.

After all, they can't come to terms with the new paradigm, which is to enjoy being penetrated by such a masculine, impregnable bullshitartist as the Donald, cometh the man.

Have I got this right, dear?

WITCH HUNT!

Now you previously said you never read Mr Trump's tweets, but I'm curious.

Can you find an example of a tweet that inspires and lifts the American consciousness?

Cheers.



Well this is true I have never actually read them
But the Donald is just so entertaining
That I'm sure he penetrates the twittersphere
With raw bold powerful awesome noble masculine
Unapologetic unflappable resilient strong indomitable
Hilarious invincible unassailable impregnable unshakeable
Unflinching gritty heroic steadfast determined stout hearted
Lionhearted firm unyielding steely resolve ;)


I see. So you believe it's a mistake to lie to the voters.

Unless you're just bullshitting to the crowd (and to Congress, the senate and your fellow world leaders, etc).

But it doesn't matter if you tell porkies as long as you can write awesome tweets.

People shouldn't actually read them, just feel their vibe, penetrating one with raw, bold, powerful, awesome masculine EnErGy.

And if the leftards seek to clarify, they're just butthurt chodes who think they're so much smarter than Mr Trump, so elitist and unfair, so old-fashioned.

Trump has single handedly demolished the power of Washington, of the Marxist university profs, of the mainstream media and of the chattering classes.

How was that even possible,

How did a 71 yo guy do THAT whilst appearing to not even be trying.

When karnal says he plays golf and eats fast food , that, to me, makes the story even more incredible.


Imagine if Tom Brady won the Super Bowl, Wimbledon, the US PGA and the 100m gold medal and then karnal pointed out that Tom never trained, ate Big Macs and chased ho's all night.
That just adds to the mystique.
That adds to the legend.
That is EPIC

Probably true,
Lefties tend to be better educated but worse paid.

It must really be frustrating to be a uni prof with a fat wife and a Prius and see some young stockbroker with a porche and a possie of babes.

Only to extremely shallow people who think that looks, money, and fame are the most important things in life.

People like you, for example, and the alleged child rapist squatting in the White House.

I feel genuinely sorry for people who believe that success is determined by wealth and notability.

Well this is true I have never actually read them

That I'm sure he penetrates the twittersphere
With raw bold powerful awesome noble masculine
Unapologetic unflappable resilient strong indomitable
Hilarious invincible unassailable impregnable unshakeable
Unflinching gritty heroic steadfast determined stout hearted
Lionhearted firm unyielding steely resolve ;)


Stop stop stop.

Trump does not exude masculinity.  You associate leadership with masculinity so you have to pretend that Trump is an example of masculine alpha.

In reality, he's a giant man-baby, complaining and whinging like a teenage girl on twitter.  There is nothing masculine about him, he's shouty yes, but he a lazy overweight slob.

And you know this.  I don't know why you rabbit on with this bullshit about him being strong and masculine, and I don't know what brain injury you've suffered that you'd link his lying and con artist ways as "noble".

Pick what traits in a person you value and then stick to it.  Stop always changing it every time you simply can no longer fool yourself or pretending Trump, someone you so desperately worship, is the embodiment of them.

I and I'm sure many others remember you attacking Clinton over what you said was her dishonesty.  Now you applaud Trump for lying.

It's like nothing but supporting Trump matters to you.


Now now, Sad, Aquascoot has always believed in immigration, free trade, competence, professionalism and integrity. These are the values of virtuous, grown-up righties, the "noble capitalists", the "superior man".

As the beneficiaries of such values, we should bow down and worship our whitegoods, the symbol of affluent progress and prosperity.

Aquascoot still believes in these things. He's just put it on hold for 5 years while he studies Mr Trump's tweets.

Can you find an example of a tweet that inspires and lifts the American consciousness?

Cheers.


Sure!

"Fake news"!



:D :D

Trump has single handedly demolished the power of Washington, of the Marxist university profs, of the mainstream media and of the chattering classes.

How was that even possible,

How did a 71 yo guy do THAT whilst appearing to not even be trying.

When karnal says he plays golf and eats fast food , that, to me, makes the story even more incredible.


Imagine if Tom Brady won the Super Bowl, Wimbledon, the US PGA and the 100m gold medal and then karnal pointed out that Tom never trained, ate Big Macs and chased ho's all night.
That just adds to the mystique.
That adds to the legend.
That is EPIC


Well, it's probably more like Tom Brady losing the Super Bowl, Wimbledon, the US PGA and the 100m gold medal, but being given the trophy anyway.

Otherwise, I could not agree more.

You have gotta get off this policy obsession karmel

Being a symbolic manifestation of patriotic awesomeness
Is the game we are now playing

Trump's role is to set the mood for the nation
Trump's role is to raise the vibration

Think of him as Erwin Rommel and the fine people of real America as the Africa corps
Trump's role is to fly around in his helicopter
Sending out awesome tweets
And making the fine people of real America feel invincible

You wouldn't expect Rommel to get down and administer policy
That's micromanagement
That's what failures do

Trump trusts in the great entrepreneurial spirit of American business
And American business trusts in the Great positive manifestation that is trump

By the way karmel

The Dow hit record highs today
Unemployment hit record lows today

How awesome is Donald
After you have finished bowing before your refrigerator
you should fall for your knees and give thanks that the Donald was sent from heaven
As the saviour of the United States of America
A man of religious significance


Rommel lost, dear. And Mr Trump couldn't get into the army - bone spurs.

But which awesome tweets do you mean?

WIRETAPPED BY OBAMA! BAD (OR SICK) GUY!

As soon as you read that word, you know you're dealing with an ignorant buffoon who has never set foot on a university campus.



Stand by for a reply along the lines of "I would never want to set foot on a university campus - I would encourage everyone to avoid them at all costs".



16 out of 17 tenured university professors in American universities identify as to the left.



Well, of course.

Those on the left are more informed and better educated than those on the right.

Duh!   ::)


Probably true,
Lefties tend to be better educated but worse paid.

It must really be frustrating to be a uni prof with a fat wife and a Prius and see some young stockbroker with a porche and a possie of babes.

That could lead to bitter resentment and nihilism.
You could end up feeling you were a victim . ;)


Not at all. The real victim in all this is Mr Trump, so sad.

You need to start reading his tweets dear.

Well we have another day and yet another different excuse for the attack.

That is above Trumps first 4 different reasons, Briefing the Senate with nothing as well as more new news.

1) the assassination of Suleimani was not the only Trump approved attempted assassination that night, there was a second failed attempt.

2) Barr and Pompao are now saying that it was  done as a deterrence.

3) Trump's claim of 4 embassies has been refuted by most of the relevant office holders. It is simply untrue.

4) there is a procedure for warning Embassies and escalation of the threat. It wasn't done. Nobody thought to ward the embassies.

Note: Barr and Pompeo now say that it was a deterrence and wasn't to prevent an imminent attack at all. The problem with this reasoning is that it isn't Trump's prerogative to make decisions for the other branch, The House gets to make that call.

https://edition.cnn.com/2020/01/13/politics/pompeo-barr-soleimani-strike-iran-rationale/index.html

Whatever the reason for the strike we know it wasn't what the Trump team and trump has said it was. If they were telling the truth they would not need to tell a different story every day just to see if it will work.

Some interesting numbers in studies on this topic.

The Left do in fact have more numbers among university lecturers. This may be more a criticism of the right than saying anything about the left. Simply put the righties do not give a bugger about educating the young.

Among the highest numbers to the left from some studies was one where about 44% identified as being solidly to the left. this translated to around 90% in comparison to the something like 4% identifying as strong right supporters. The fact that the majority were close to the centre or politically uninterested went unnoticed.

The highest figure I found for the left in education was one study who got 60%. (60-40).

The history of politics in Universities is interesting, in the 30's - 50's to Mccarthyism Educators who were to the left would get the sack some were locked up, many campuses and lecturers had visits from the FBI.

16 out of 17 is obvious BS.

Haidt is involved with several efforts to help bridge the political divide and reduce political polarization in the United States. In 2007, he founded the website CivilPolitics.org, a clearinghouse for research on political civility.[39] He serves on the advisory boards of Represent.Us., a non-partisan anti-corruption organization, the Acumen Fund, which invests in companies, leaders, and ideas that are changing the way the world tackles poverty; and Better-Angels.org, a bipartisan group working to reduce political polarization. Three of his four TED talks are on the topic of understanding political divisions.[40]

So you can see why he'd rail against leftard academics. He wants to heal the political divide. It's all in the statistic analysis. 16 out of 17.

I think it's a smart move.

Of course the authors didn't say it. Aquascoot's been quoting this figure for years. Mind you, the numbers keep changing.

Haidt & Lukianoff published The Coddling of the American Mind in 2018.

They argue that:


Quote:
Continuing on to discuss contemporary partisanship or the "rising political polarization and cross party animosity". They state that the left and right are "locked into a game of mutual provocation and reciprocal outrage".[2]:125
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Coddling_of_the_American_Mind

Aquascoot is always free to read or review his sources. He does have that choice.

For now.

The people who shape the minds of America’s students have long leaned left, on average. But students who entered college before 1990 could count on the fact that their professors did not all vote the same way or hold the same views on the controversial issues of the day. Students who arrived after 2005 could make no such assumption. For example, Figure 3 is from Jon Haidt’s recent post plotting new data on the policy views of social psychologists, on nine culture war issues (such as abortion and gay marriage).


Figure 3: Views of 327 social psychologists, on nine culture war issues. For further details see here.

Only one social psychologist, out of a sample of 327, had views that were right of center.

Mind you, those professors were quite strict on referencing. They'd fail you if you provided a graph sourced only as "figure 3".

Meh.
Why would I cast pearls before swine.

You are ideologically possessed , as are many intellectuals of the left.

But here's the consequence.


Your ideological possession lead to identity politics.

Identity politics lead to tribalism

" paying attention" to the marriage of tribalism and the algorhythms of social media led trump to decide 2016 was the time to strike.

And the pragmatists ( who have the only correct view of the truth) would say that trump won and the lefties lost and therefore trump is " truth" and the lefties are " not truth"

You fell off the path, became wilfully blind, corrupted your morals and the people decided they did not want to play your game anymore.

And if the lefties want to be popular kids on the playground, they are going to have to play a game other people want to play.

We will see later this year if people want to play the leftie game.
At the moment, they seem to like playing the awesome game of Donald.

But students who entered college before 1990 could count on the fact that their professors did not all vote the same way or hold the same views on the controversial issues of the day. Students who arrived after 2005 could make no such assumption. For example, Figure 3 is from Jon Haidt’s recent post plotting new data on the policy views of social psychologists, on nine culture war issues (such as abortion and gay marriage).


Figure 3: Views of 327 social psychologists, on nine culture war issues. For further details see here.

Only one social psychologist, out of a sample of 327, had views that were right of center.


Where, you've provided no context or evidence?

You haven't even provided a measure of what "centre" is.  So many of you have dove to the right that everyone feels left of centre to you.



Several studies have found that the political views of academics vary considerably between different regions of the United States, and between academic disciplines. In a 2016 opinion column in The New York Times, for example, political scientist Samuel J. Abrams used HERI data to argue that the ratio of liberal to conservative faculty varied greatly between regions. According to Abrams, the ratio of liberal to conservative professors was highest in New England, where this ratio was 28:1, compared to 6:1 nationally.[34][35]

Mitchell Langbert examined variations in political party registration in 2018, describing a higher concentration of Democrats in elite liberal arts institutions in the northeast, and found more Democrats among female faculty than male faculty. He also found the greatest ratio of Democrats to Republicans in interdisciplinary studies and the humanities, and the lowest ratio in professional studies and science and engineering.[37]

Focusing specifically on social psychology academics, a 2014 study found that "[b]y 2006, however, the ratio of Democrats to Republicans had climbed to more than 11:1."[16] The six authors, all from different universities and members of the Heterodox Academy, also said, by 2012, "that for every politically conservative social psychologist in academia there are about 14 liberal psychologists" according to Arthur C. Brooks. Academy member[38] Steven Pinker described the study as "one of the most important papers in the recent history of the social sciences".

I know, dear. When I was a student, the leader of the Libs was an economics professor who drove a Ferrari. The economics professor Milton Friedman and the Chicago School were the bee's knees. Even Clinton was a fan. Even Paul Keating.

Those were the good old days, no?

Mind you, those professors were quite strict on referencing. They'd fail you if you provided a graph sourced only as "figure 3".

Maybe there are some good things about having slack leftard professors, eh?

They don't ask any pesky questions like who wrote your research?



Meh.
Why would I cast pearls before swine.

You are ideologically possessed , as are many intellectuals of the left.

But here's the consequence.


Your ideological possession lead to identity politics.

Identity politics lead to tribalism

" paying attention" to the marriage of tribalism and the algorhythms of social media led trump to decide 2016 was the time to strike.

And the pragmatists ( who have the only correct view of the truth) would say that trump won and the lefties lost and therefore trump is " truth" and the lefties are " not truth"

You fell off the path, became wilfully blind, corrupted your morals and the people decided they did not want to play your game anymore.

And if the lefties want to be popular kids on the playground, they are going to have to play a game other people want to play.

We will see later this year if people want to play the leftie game.
At the moment, they seem to like playing the awesome game of Donald.
Far more engaging and entertaining


That's a pretty long reply, dear.

Can I ask why you don't you want to provide the source of your graph?

laugh if you like but its what got trump elected.

lefties have taken over the humanities (whether its 11/1 or 17/1 doesnt matter much).
and they are in an echo chamber (as evidenced by their horror at trump winning).
and they propose policies which give them status in their leftie clique but which mortify "real" america.

i saw this in the democratic candidate debates when they all put their hands up to support free health care for all illegals.

that is a direct result of not having a conservative voice in the humanities to say "wait a moment".

so the takeover of the humanities has directly resulted in trump and will result in him winning in 2020.
it would have been better if they had some conservatives to contend with on the campus.
but who wants to do that !!!!

I'm not laughing, dear, I'm curious. I'm trying to educate myself. I've asked you about Haidt and Steven Pinker and your social scientists, but you won't say.

You don't want to tell me because I'm ideologically posessed - like the leftards.

I swear to God, dear, I'm just trying to get to the source of this ideological possession - like you. I know you want to get to the bottom of all this too. You're into the science, dear, the facts.

I think it's terrible the way these doctors and scientists and business professors are poisoning our students' minds like this.

So if you could post the link to your graph, it'd be great. With your help, I'll educate myself, you'll see.

Yes, but you should educate yourself by reading Haidt, Dnarever. He wants to bridge the ideological divide by embracing the centre and bringing us all together. He's one of Aquascoot's favourite academics.

Aquascoot reads Haidt as getting back at the leftards, but that's the benefit of education, no?

16 out of 17 tenured professors, 10 out of 11 social scientists, graphs, references, that's irrelevant.

Aquascoot's a pragmatist. What matters here is the facts.

The leftards are so ideologically poisoned they can't even understand simple statistics.

Pathetic.
