George Bush wasn’t either. My take anyways.
Yep. And Jeffrey Epstein didn’t kill himself.
Pretty good comparison actually. Similar levels of contentiousness and ambiguity.
AFAIAC everything is Dick Cheney’s fault until proven otherwise
GWB wasn’t nothin but a Dick puppet.
Somebody did that shit, though, and as the grandchild of someone who went to war to save the world from fascism, it really pisses me off…
I see W as being a not very bright or special in his own right, but he knew who to surround himself with and he had a lot of charisma. It just didn’t come across very well in interviews and such. In other words, for all his failings he was a great politician.
Insane in the membrane. Insane in the brain.
If it were not for the presidential seal on the letterhead and the typeface it might have been mistaken for a Unibomber-like screed if handwritten on yellowing notebook paper with hamburger and ketchup stains.
He wants to “disappear”, murder, or otherwise physically punish Adam Schiff for (checks notes) mildly cracking wise about his phone call to Ukraine?
I can only imagine his blinding murderous fury towards Obama humiliating him to his face at the White House Correspondent’s Dinner. He’s got some sort of hate-shrine towards the guy in his dresser that he murders rats on every night or something.
That is a visual I do not need…
Take a look at who is now paying Fox And Friends to shovel massive loads of horse shit
In taped video segments being shown today, tomorrow and Friday, Kilmeade is spotted traveling in Massapequa with his dogs; Earhardt is found outside the Fox News studio; and Doocy picking up his family in Jupiter, Florida. Each host will be shown in a Dodge Durango SRT, and the vignettes will try to spotlight the room the vehicle has for family and luggage – all as the nation moves closer to the holidays. On-air graphics will tell viewers the segment is sponsored by Dodge.
I’ve got to wonder if it’s even any different. Like for Trump there are only two ways to feel about a person with no gradations.
That’s pretty accurate, actually. It seems like everyone he interacts with is either the greatest guy ever, a real winner! …or a loser who’s probably a Never Trumper and a traitor and should die. I don’t see much in between.
And the decider is “Have they pledged their eternal soul to my hellfire or not?”
And a fair few people begin as one and end up as the other. See: Sessions, Jeff; Mattis, Jim; Scaramucci, Anthony; Cohen, Michael; Manafort, Paul; Tillerson, Rex; Priebus, Reince; Kelley, John; and Bannon, Steve for a start.
There are 5 Ds to Dodgeball: Dodge, Duck, Dip, Dive, and Dodge.
Splitting (also called black-and-white thinking or all-or-nothing thinking) is the failure in a person’s thinking to bring together the dichotomy of both positive and negative qualities of the self and others into a cohesive, realistic whole. It is a common defense mechanism.
…
Most often narcissists do this as an attempt to stabilize their sense of self positivity in order to preserve their self-esteem, by perceiving themselves as purely upright or admirable and others who do not conform to their will or values as purely wicked or contemptible.
(Splitting (psychology) - Wikipedia)
Of course by “narcissist” in that sentence they mean a person who actually matches the criteria for a specific disorder, which none of us can say Trump does. It’s just that all written material on how narcissists behave fits Trump’s previous behaviour and predicts Trump’s future behaviour precisely.
