Title: The Psychology of Trumpism Explained...
Post by AusGeoff on Jan 29th, 2024 at 8:40pm


This is possibly one of the best articles I've read recently about
why the now-disgraced former president continues to enjoy political
and personal support from an element of the American public.

Many explanations are proposed for the continued rise of Trump,
and the steadfastness of his support, even as the outrages and
criminal charges pile up. Trump is king of the extrinsics.

People with a strong set of intrinsic values are inclined towards
empathy, intimacy and self-acceptance. They tend to be open to
challenge and change, interested in universal rights and equality,
and protective of other people and the living world.

People at the extrinsic end of the spectrum are more attracted to
prestige, status, image, fame, power and wealth
. They are strongly
motivated by the prospect of individual reward and praise. They are
more likely to objectify and exploit other people, to behave rudely and
aggressively and to dismiss social and environmental impacts. They
have little interest in cooperation or community. People with a strong
set of extrinsic values are more likely to suffer from frustration,
dissatisfaction, stress, anxiety, anger and compulsive behaviour.

To beat Trump, we need to know why Americans keep
voting for him. Psychologists may have the answer
.

   The last para (above) sums up Trump to the letter.

Considering the Medical Industry knows SFA about orthodox Politics...
Considering the Brunette & Raven haired males know SFA about orthodox Politics unless its made into a Movie about Psychology.

Meh-nah. Blonde and Red haired males are better at Politics (and Art).

Well, they voted for him, but more people voted for Clinton and Biden.

In popular polls - among the general population - he's not popular.

He's only popular within his cult.

Thanks, that is good.
Many americans are extrinsics, for them to win is the only thing that matters.

There really is no common ground to discuss this, it is clear that we were better off before biden sat at the resolute desk for the first time. It has been downhill ever since! Among many things you will not understand is there is not a finite amount of wealth in the world and someone doesn't have to lose for someone else to get ahead in life. These are the kind of people that keep you down, Trump is the kind of person that wants you to succeed in life.

Dopey/Creepy Joe jogged on stage to prove to voters he was still young and vibrant.
Once he became President - the con was over, he couldn't even walk up stairs.

No, dear, once he became prez, SJ fixed the depressed covid economy, rolled out infrastructure, returned manufacturing jobs to the US, lifted share prices, lowered unemployment, crime, fuel prices, drug prices and student debt, and in sum, outflanked your DL by nearly every measure possible.

In fact, in three short years, he's already surpassed every metric of the Trump administration in every measure there is. In numerical terms, there's no longer any doubt whatsoever. Sleepy Joe is the best man for the job - by far. The only con is those trying to talk it down, so I'm curious.

Ever get the feeling you've been cheated?

well said mort

you are on the money

trump also reveals a truth the leftie intellectual does not want to admit

that society flourishes when people understand that the truth is not the goal because everyone has a different truth
the truth is a poor leading indicator.
a gazans truth is not an israelis truth
a white welder from arkansas truth is not a black trans uni students truth at UCLA.

trump understands that you just leave people alone and let winning be the aim, not trying to make everyone comply to a set of fascist rules (which is now the view of the PC left),


winning is a better measure then truth because it can be measured in the marketplace.

the israelis can see if they are winning (by piling up hamas corpses)
the american auto manufacruors can see if they are winning (by building beautiful gas vehicles)


even germany just commissioned 10 large gas fired power plants , allowing us to say that in the climate change debate there are winners and losers (and the truth is malleable)

a country that doesnt get that (and biden certainly doesnt) is not a country.

its like a stag that refuses to fight (win) for the right to exist.

biden and his goons would have the american stag just stand there impotent and meek and timid whilst the parasites ate it down to the bone and it disappeared.

biden supporters are just naive

they really think 10 million illegals are coming to america to build the american dream for them
they dont understand that the illegals are about winning, not about the truth.(why they throw their documents away and make up a lie)

its why, in the end, trump probably wins in 2024.

peoples naivety is coming to an end as they wake up from the woke fantasy

Well, unless you're an ex-wife who "accidentally" falls down the stairs and ends up buried on a golf course or a best friend (who just so happens to be a convicted child sex offender) who "commits suicide" whilst under 24/7 surveillance by prison guards and cameras.

Oh? So how's DL leaving people alone? His trade wars with Europe and Chi-na added a good 5 to 10% to the price of various manufactured goods and steel. A number of farmers shut shop - and those who didn't had to be paid out.

DL's on record as overturning Roe vs Wade. He's packing shit for that one, tying himself in knots to explain why he refuses to leave women's bodies alone. Meanwhile the Democrat ads are racking up views in all the key states.

There's no woke fantasising going on, dear. Sleepy Joe's about the economy, stupid. The only culture wars going on are on Fox News, with Hannity and all the rest complaining about trannie toilets.

They're free to that, Bias. The Jehovists have Judaic law, the Mormons have Joseph Smith law, and the morons have their own codes of ethics, policies, rules and regs, etc.

The Superior Man's above all that. He vibes with Fox News and Dear Leader. This allows him to act all pious and sanctimonious and cranky about everyone else, while he does whatever he goddamn-well wants.

Listen Pill.
An American Mormon once said to me. "Sure, we know our Religion is crap. But it's MADE IN AMERICA and that's what we love about it." And that's why Pill, it is one of the most popular and fastest growing religions in America.

Trump is Made in America.
Biden/Democraps have proven themselves to be made by China, Africa and the Italian Media.

No matter who wins, there will be extreme violence.

If the rapist wins, he'll start murdering the homeless, asylum seekers, etc.

If Biden wins, Trump's cult members will start attacking Democrat politicians, judges, and Biden supporters.

Sorry, who claimed the 2016 election was rigged?

It's a known fact Vlad illegally intervened to have your DL elected. Indictments were heard and approved by a federal grand jury.

The 2020 was described as the most secure election in history by your DL's own appointed director.

If you're going to throw a tanty, old boy, it might help if you threw in a few fakers. A self-confessed liar would help, or someone fired for being too unhinged even for Fox News, in the aftermath of their 780 mil settlement for spreading porkies.

Indeed.

Trump has admitted to stealing money from kids' cancer charities.

Moreover, he has not appealed the decision handed down by the court/jury that says he raped Carroll - he's only appealing the amount of damages.

He admits to rape and he admits to stealing from dying kids, and yet Frank still supports and defends him.

Is Frank a rapist and thief?

That's what you get when you corrupt the electoral system, the justice system, Big Media and Big Tech, Big Uni, Big Pharma etc.  Nobody believes in fair elections and legitimate results that everyone can accept.


Except for the states, Congress, the Senate and your DL's own intelligence services, DOJ and Department of Homeland Security, but do you know?

Something tells me you'll believe it, dear chap. If your DL is erected, you'll be the first to believe.

Corruption? You'll say. Never ever.

Oh? We'll say. His confessions, his incitement, the security footage, the tape of his perfect call and 12,000 classified government records in Melania's panty drawers. No rigging and corruption, is it?

All lies, you'll say. So unfair. He's just misunderstood, that's all.

An excellent quality for a US prez, wouldn't you say?

Gibberish, paki.

2016 - rigged by the Russians! Trump is not legit! The Americal electoral system was hacked!
2020 - fairest, most transparent election eva! Especi a of after 3 am in the morning, thanks postal service!

We distinctly remember, dear boy, just so.

After all, how could we forget?

Your DL launches the first attack on the Capitol in US history, then heads back to Pennsylvania Ave (he loves Pennsylvania Ave) to watch it on TV. He avoids calls from his own party members under seige. He refuses to call for back-up. He then does a video praising the rioters.

Your response?

It was a bad day at the office. He didn't get much sleep. His lunch was badly cooked. The rioters were tinted.

In his new book, George Monbiot says the trend towards neoliberalism began in the 1930s, and has so dominated the political narrative that its now seen as the natural way of things. So as the far-right once again marches to power, is this moment a political tipping point in the direction of fascism? And can this be reversed before the planet reaches its own ecological tipping point?

Scientists Torn On Whether To Blame Heat Wave On Climate Change, Trump, Or White Supremacy

U.S. — As a spike of higher temperatures prepared to sweep across the United States this week, scientists were torn on whether to blame the heat wave on climate change, Donald Trump, or white supremacy.

Though arguments were made within the scientific community on the legitimacy of each cause, no consensus had been reached, leaving researchers to look for ways to maintain climate change, Trump, and white supremacy as joint causes for the hotter weather.

"We're really stumped here," said Professor Blake Rumsey, lead scientist at The Center for Determining Causes of Things. "This heat wave must have a source, and under normal circumstances, we can trace it back to one definitive origin. This time, however, we're having a hard time deciding whether it's been caused by white supremacy, the global climate change crisis, or Donald Trump."

Reports from behind the scenes indicated the international team of highly esteemed scientists was wary of placing the blame on Trump and risking being accused of abandoning the crusade against climate change or being branded as racists who didn't care that white supremacy was destroying the world. "It's a no-win situation," Rumsey explained. "Rest assured, we're working tirelessly to manipulate data in a way that would allow us to blame all three of them."

At publishing time, news broke that the upcoming presidential election had resulted in researchers officially declaring that the heat wave was caused by climate change, which was caused by white supremacy, for which Donald Trump was solely to blame.




So the science is settled, Leftards.

Greggery, the old boy's trying to get away with saying his DL wasn't found liable of raping and defaming E.Jean, even after his failed appeal. He's saying a jury didn't convict his DL of 34 felonies. He's even trying to suggest his DL wasn't found liable for charity fraud, fined and had the Trump Foundation shut down for good. Never happened, all lies.

I'd hazard a guess the old boy will similarly argue the Trump Org wasn't busted for business fraud too, with his DL banned from running a business in New York for two years and ordered to pay $500 million in penalties. I'd say he hasn't seen his DL's boxes, or the security footage after the federal subpoena, all of that lies too. But do you know?

The old boy dismisses the very premise. Porkies? He says. How very dare you. Truth is a social construction, an ever-evolving network of epistemes, like a rhizome. Post-structuralism 101, innit.

Look, the courts say he did it, DL says he didn't do it. Who can truly tell? Can you? I? Anybody?

Forget everything the old boy said about the rule of law. He's turned his back on all that nonsense. Civilisation too - so overated. Always, absolutely, never ever? He never meant that. The important thing is to be flexible - like Vicky Pollard. Spineless, squishy, yeah-but-no-but, no-speaka-da-English.

He is the candidate for the opposition.


He's a rapist and convicted felon who stole money from kids' cancer charities.

Why do you like rapists so much, Frank?

We're all curious.

You are lying, despicable creep.
You are in paid employment of Macedonian content farmers.

Prove me wrong, lying, despicable shhit.


No lies.

Indisputable facts.

He's a rapist and convicted felon who stole money from kids' cancer charities.

Lies.


Facts.

Raped a woman, convicted of 34 felonies, and stole money from kids' cancer charities.

All indisputable facts.

I don't accept that they are indisputable.


There, you see? Evolution, gravity, the earth being round - he disagrees with the very premise.

How dare you question the old boy's beliefs? We still have freedom of thought, you know. Haven't you heard of multiculturalism?

The old boy is free to pretend what he thinks. He doesn't have to believe it. He is perfectly entitled to, you know, lie.

DEEP STATE !!!

Not at all. We warned you about Iraq, we warned you about Vlad, we warned you about the consequences of Brexit, we warned you about DL and all his jolly crimes as well.

To date, you've gotten every single thing wrong. Forgetting all the little lies you've been busted for in your time, you've always been called on your big ones too.

For someone who cites Tucker Carlson as the epitome of honesty, it makes perfect sense.

War is peace, freedom is slavery and ignorance is strength, innit.

George Monbiot. The Granuiad.

:D :D :D :D :D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Carry on.



And carry on they do.



George Monbiot 'explains' it all to Head-tilter in Chief:

In his new book, George Monbiot says the trend towards neoliberalism began in the 1930s, and has so dominated the political narrative that its now seen as the natural way of things. So as the far-right once again marches to power, is this moment a political tipping point in the direction of fascism? And can this be reversed before the planet reaches its own ecological tipping point?

https://www.abc.net.au/listen/programs/latenightlive/george-monbiot-neoliberalism/103970852


Letters complain about elections WHEN they are  not going their way, as in the recent EU parliamentary elections. Here's Comrade Monbiot's latest:

General elections are a travesty of democracy – let’s give the people a real voice

George Monbiot


There is an intense and consuming stupidity within almost everything George Monbiot writes, the lumpen prose devoid of both doubt and humour. Doubt and humour are blood brothers, of course – and enemies of the kind of bovine certitude which Monbiot peddles, a cacophony of privately educated green tinged nepo leftism to which the majority of the country is rightly averse.

PTSD - President Trump Serious Derangement...

Zend in zer dogs!!

https://www.facebook.com/reel/1121774613104212


I've been warning yez for years now that the current Decline Of The West will result in a government of either Extreme Left or Extreme Right.  I Told You So!!

Albo is sneaking a government of Extreme Left in on us here - at a time when the rest of the world is revolting against The Madness of uncontrolled immigration, cultural devastation, borderline thinking being the new norm, national degradation, loss of identity for the West (Mussos and Slopers have no problem with identity), division by race or ethnicity or skin colour or religion, privileges for Chosen Ones and disprivilege for the rest, and the active oppression of The People (nothing unusual in convict colony Australia - Valkie - where are you?) along with the suppression of dissidents by stripping them of social, legal and economic rights and forcing them into poverty for life for opposing New City Hall.

It's been done to Men as a group for over forty years now.... bit by bit until they have few real rights left over their own homes, family, work, and everything else, while their children are increasingly indoctrinated into The Madness from pre-school age, and some 25 years ago - I posited that once the shield and armour of men for their families in society were stripped away - women would become malleable tools in the hands of ideologues - and don't try to tell me that AlboGroup's sheilocracy of the moment is anything meaningful - most women have not and do not benefit in any meaningful way from all of this, but are assigned a spot in Tent City alongside all others as the destruction of family values and economic rights to a fair degree of prosperity in return for effort etc goes on and on to suit a self-appointed elite of the Left ... who coincidentally are profiting mightily from their own policy pursuits while you flounder in neo-poverty and many live from one meal to the next in fear of being thrown out of a rental.

Elitism - something once condemned mightily by Labour.... then Labour lost U somewhere in it ...  and polluted its philosophical stance with elitism and special interest group upraising at the expense of everyone else.      

Let My People Go - Phalbo!

This is possibly one of the best articles I've read recently about
why the now-disgraced former president continues to enjoy political
and personal support from an element of the American public.

Many explanations are proposed for the continued rise of Trump,
and the steadfastness of his support, even as the outrages and
criminal charges pile up. Trump is king of the extrinsics.

People with a strong set of intrinsic values are inclined towards
empathy, intimacy and self-acceptance. They tend to be open to
challenge and change, interested in universal rights and equality,
and protective of other people and the living world.

People at the extrinsic end of the spectrum are more attracted to
prestige, status, image, fame, power and wealth
. They are strongly
motivated by the prospect of individual reward and praise. They are
more likely to objectify and exploit other people, to behave rudely and
aggressively and to dismiss social and environmental impacts. They
have little interest in cooperation or community. People with a strong
set of extrinsic values are more likely to suffer from frustration,
dissatisfaction, stress, anxiety, anger and compulsive behaviour.

To beat Trump, we need to know why Americans keep
voting for him. Psychologists may have the answer
.

   The last para (above) sums up Trump to the letter.


It's a solid article, but honestly, it overcomplicates something pretty straightforward.

MAGA was never about facts, evidence, or any consistent worldview. It's about emotional validation, whatever reinforces their fragile identity, that's the "truth." The moment someone hands them a narrative where they're the enlightened ones, where they get to feel smarter than the scientists, the journalists, the people who paid attention in school, they're all in.

It's a movement built for those who felt humiliated by knowledge and now get to rebrand ignorance as secret wisdom. Flat-Earther logic dressed in patriot cosplay.

You can see it all over the forums too. The rage when someone introduces a fact that makes them feel small again. That's what they really hate, being reminded they don't know what they're talking about.

And now that same delusional mindset is turning on Trump. He lied too many times, even for the cult. Epstein was a line too far for some of the more heavily armed believers. Now he's the one standing in the way of their fantasy, and he's made enemies out of the very people who used to worship him.

Poetic, really. And dangerous. But I'm not looking away.

Rod Liddle nails it. Both Monbiot and the Granuiad.
