Good lord. Itās so difficult to filter the genuine from the horseshit now but this looks legit. Obviously he can read just very very badly; that deposition reading is eye opening.

More likely, heās just dyslexic. And that fact, that a dyslexic can become successful enough to become President, could be a great lesson for all the kids who are dyslexic, but Trump is probably too vain to admit a weakness like that.

Iām convinced he needs glasses and refuses to wear them or admit he has a problem.

I had the same theory, but a google image search does pull up a couple pictures of him wearing them.

Speaking as someone who has to put on reading glasses for fine printā¦thatās not how you look at a written page when your problem is eyesight.
Heās trying to figure out if he can read enough and remember enough terms that sound like they might be right to fake it.

You can tell heās pissed about his polling. His President Reality TV showās tanking so heās denying the ratings, blaming the bad reviews in the press, and using TV tactics of posting outrageous things on twitter to try to get more viewers.

Samantha Bee has a joke about Trump being illiterate. She presents it as an obviously false idea, but that misses the fact that literacy is really a spectrum. There are probably extremely few adults who canāt recognize a single word, and none who could read them all. I think for a lot of people who we would call āilliterateā itās more that reading takes a lot of effort. If thatās the case with Trump, then he canāt really read things in front of a room full of reporters, he has to kind of wing it. Actually reading would out him.
Whether thatās because of an identifiable disability (like dyslexia) or because of affluenza, I think itās pretty hard to say. Another possibility is that he can read at a decent level and is just a manifestation of him having trouble doing things unless he finds them stimulating. Itās not that he has trouble reading, itās that he finds reading boring and doesnāt have the discipline to do boring things he has to do without acting out.

Youāve made me realize that the mediaās reporting of his approval ratings are āfake newsā, but he accepts their reporting of Schwarzeneggerās approval ratings without the slightest question.

Also the attempt to create a āfeudā with Schwarzenegger and others is classic Reality TV behavior.

I have grown children. At no time during their development were they or any of their friends as immature as our current elected president is. I would take sleepless nights and diapers again, over this abomination.
