    Could it be that all this happened after you got your degree? :cautious:

    Ps...to be fair the only degree I ever got was the 3rd. :(

    I wish everyone would stop comparing Trump to Mussolini. You're tarnishing Benito's legacy. :coffee:

    To be fair, this is what Trump actually heard in that situation.

    Dude; he doesn't know which way to turn. He disavows and Colbert calls him "Wussalini", and explains to the deplorables that they have just been thrown under the bus.

    He sticks to the narrative and he looks like a foaming mouth, crazed, bigot. Couldn't happen to a more deserving fat old douche.

    1) Where did this "garbage" thing come from?

    2) He was clearly campaigning, and his strategy is obvious.

    Every speech he gives is campaigning. They're all Brown Shirt rallies. He makes no attempt to engage the other 55% to 60%, except to invite Schumer and Pelosi to the WH once a quarter, talk about infrastructure, and then forget that by that evening what was covered.

    The events of the last 24 hrs show why the media cannot cover trump properly, because they have to see everything through a political lens.

    Trump's acts make far more sense if you analyse him as a sociopathic abuser rather than a political strategist

    i.e. Trump goes too far and hold a Klan rally. He is called out on it, apparently in private as well as in public. Narcissistic shame kicks in so he does what any sociopath does and lies. It never happened! This is not a walk back! This is a classic narco behaviour where they simply deny reality. Then, the very next day, thanks to his poor impulse control and narc raging, he repeats exactly the same behaviour.

    This isn't 9D strategy. This is an abusive sociopath who cannot control his behavior.

    Election strategy would be talking about the economy and coming up with a fake health care initiative.

    If he did these basic things he would win.

    Polling shows his latest behaviour is unpopular even with a plurality of conservatives,

    It's amazing how the media realises Trump is clueless on any and every topic from the economy, to trade, to international relations etc etc etc yet still credits him as being a electoral genius.

    Any conventional conservative politician would walk to victory with this economy

    Yet Trump continues to sabotage his own campaign by striving to keep his popularity as far underwater as possible.

    Remember that Trump won the WH inter alia, because he pledged specific working class incentives like health care, jobs, public spending on infrastructure etc - that shit was the 9D chess and all of it was left wing stuff.

    Where is that stuff?

    Even Steve "I admire Mussolini" Bannon realised Trump needed to do some actual populist stuff rather than just let the GOP do whatever. These days Trump has no legislative agenda at all???

    I'm not trying to get you to defend anything, just not minimize it.

    I am also going to go out on a short limb and say the difference between Bill Clinton and Donald Trump when it comes to sexual harassment is Slick Willie's ability to hide and/or cover up his actions.

    Trump isn't that smart.

    Exactly

    There is no strategy. He is an abuser and conman. Narcissistic supply is what makes him tick. He is not goal oriented.

    They are brownshirt rallies to the cult of Trump.

    of course there are other people who are trying to run a campaign. I just don't think Trump is one of them.

    It's possible that that adreneline rush he gets from those adoring crowds at his grievance orgies has convinced him he's actually popular. And given that . . .

    ... it could be a strategy.

    Which isn't to dispute your point about Trump being an abusive narcissistic psycho.

    That's the core of it. It's central to his distorted self image that he is popular. That is why he humiliated himself so badly over his inauguration crowd on day 1 of his presidency. A normally functioning human would be too ashamed to try to pretend, for him it is too painful, driving him to tell the most absurd lies. So not clever media strategy, Mental illness that self sabotaged his first days.

    That's what we saw yesterday. When too many people called him racist, he reflexively tried to pretend it never happened.

    I mean we even saw this from the fallen UK ambo. The best strategy is simply to feed trumps ego. A pathetically obvious play - yet apparently it works, because Trump is that pathetic.

    No great strategist would fall for those bootlicking cabinet sessions - yet Trump actually wants that.

    This is also why he would rather have brown shirt rallies than run the country.

    He said a congresswoman called America or Americans garbage. Where does that come from?
