Donald Trump

Prediction: in 2020 or 2021 there will be a global bestselling book plus documentary series about Donald Trump and your (and the international public) response to him.

It will not contain what you expect, now hope, and very foolishly imagine to be true. You will be given no wiggle out room - self-tests of your own stupidity will be provided. You will be able to keep your results private, I suspect. Except if you have prior provided public proof by egregious statements online.

Doubtless it should contain some face-saving / face-recovery path for the most vocal critics, since folk aren't happy / well unless all ends well.

Go back to bed.
 
Well you certainly sound as though you are on something...


Yes, it perhaps seems that way. From the popular perspective, my post is a very odd prediction to make.

Edit. I was looking at it from a publishers perspective, irrespective of whether Donald was President or not. There are arguably enough "inconvenient truths" about how he has been mistreated - without any need for referring to official documents - to cause significant alarm to any thinking person.

So, Russia, Australia, Northern Mariana Islands, Papua New Guinea.

Second one, Australia (AEST).

The point of my prediction above is that I assume there's a high probability that any of the literary types around the world with an eye for factual accuracy and a good dollar will spot the business opportunity.

I have to ask but do you talk to people like that IRL?

Whilst on the subject of publishing books, have you considered proof reading the stuff you write to see if your average reader could have the slightest idea wtf you are on about?.

Quoted to come back to at some point.

By the way, while you're on - any chance of getting a response?

When you say 'rend aid', what precisely is it that you think we should be doing? What do you think would aid Trump?

Please go ahead and quote me saying that I "wish Trump were a better communicator", or even words to that effect.

I've certainly poked fun at his utter inability to be even slightly articulate.

Fairly poor attempt to paint special needs Donald as a victim. Rather than a total **** up.

So old and so predictable it was a pointless post. Why make the post in the first place? There are always books during and after for the gullible to buy. There will be books on how unfairly he was treated and books on how he deserved it. The only significant alarm to thinking people are the ones who cannot see Trumps unsuitable behavior, corruption and immoral actions. Is writing English your 2nd or 3rd Language?
 
Gosh, there are going to books written about Trump and the world's reaction to his presidency? And there will be books that paint him as a victim?

Nostradamus over here isn't doing anything to dispel the impression that he's a stupid person's impression of a smart person.
 
Okay @RxR. In addition to my couple of inquiries reposted in post #5849, got another one for you.

It will not contain what you expect, now hope, and very foolishly imagine to be true.

What is it exactly that you think we expect, hope and imagine to be true that will be dispelled by this future book and documentary series?
 
By the way, while you're on - any chance of getting a response?
Prediction: You'll have a long wait. I'm still waiting on RxR to tell me how power is or should be held to account and to get some constructive criticism so we can guard our greater shared system performance, you'd think he'd jump at the chance to put me right but apparently not.

Getting back to Trump i have a question for his supporters: Does it not concern you that so many people misunderstand him? I think we can all agree, rightly or wrongly, that lots of people misunderstand what he says and Trump supporters often have to 'explain' what he actually meant, if you're constantly having to do that doesn't it worry you that someone will misunderstand him at a critical moment and put the lives of American service men and women in danger or worse, if he had to deal with something like the Cuban missile crisis the last thing you'd want is a misunderstand.

Also while I'm asking questions: Don't you find his inability to imagine why there's been a surge in calls to US emergency hotlines regarding disinfectant over the last two days a bit concerning? If he can't image what caused that doesn't it concern you that he may not be able to image other causalities.

I'm going to level with you here. You're posting on a computer forum, yet you are doing all you can to sound more intelligent than the rest of us whilst falling flat on your face in the process. We're not in an Oxford University literature class where you attempt to one-up your classmates by reading big words from a thesaurus to sound clever. Regardless of whether the words you're using are appropriate for what you're trying to say, stringing them together into one incoherent babble of nonsense causes them to become incomprehensible, and it makes you look rather silly. I cannot imagine for one minute that you actually speak to people like that in the real world. If you did, I'd say that most people would just turn around and walk away from you. This isn't a personal attack upon you, just some friendly advice to tone it down. Perhaps you'll find some meaningful discussion in the process.

Anyway, that said, I'm rather curious to find from you why you support Trump (or so it seems) and what you think he's done right during this pandemic. You're very quick to jump on the rest of us for saying "negative" things about him, but nothing that's been said is a wild accusation, it is what's actually happened. You speak as someone trying to project intellect, so surely you've watched his briefings and come to a similar conclusion? Do you see how he comes across in each and every one of them? If not, go and watch a few now and pay attention not to what he's saying, but to how he says things. He's very defensive and it's difficult to hide his inability to deal with this crisis properly.

Then, if you pay attention to what he's saying, it's just the same thing at every briefing. It's an extended election rally used as a platform for him to showcase how amazing he is, and he won't allow anyone to get in the way of that. He dodges relevant questions and then waffles on about something completely unrelated but that's sure to highlight how amazing he's done something. He belittles journalists in a very rude and belligerent way, but he will not allow them to ask him the hard questions, he just dismisses it all whilst talking over them or telling them to be quiet. He makes everything about him at every opportunity so that the issues raised disappear into the ether. Deflection and false information are his weapons. He keeps making factually incorrect statements like how the US is the greatest at testing (which at the beginning they completely failed at due to rubbish kits), has had the best economy ever since he came along (again, debunked with actual statistics, some of which were posted a few pages back), discussing the use of bleach used inside the body to clean out the virus with an advisor and passing it off as sarcasm with the journalists (which even if it was, which is an epic reach, is a wholly irresponsible thing). Last night he said that without him they'd be at war with North Korea. Again, something completely irrelevant to say in a briefing that's supposed to be about COVID-19, but it makes him sound better than he actually is. His ban on travel from China was too late to be effective, and has been proven to still allow over 40000 people into the US, so that was nothing but a pointless move (laced with racism I hasten to add, given the context of things he was saying at the time).

I genuinely don't understand how people buy into all of this and support it. It isn't personal hatred of the man that makes me unable to buy into what he's saying. It's that he's morally, factually and politically bankrupt, and someone that's completely in over his head, and who can never own up to his mistakes. Regardless of how something plays out, he's done an amazing job, every single time. This is how he comes across at every briefing without fail, only more recently things have been headed downward at an even more alarming rate, hence why his last few were cancelled with him crying like a baby about how it's too difficult to endure them with the press being so "nasty". No, it's actually because you can't backup what you're saying with fact and you then try to get out of what you've said by lying quite blatantly. It's an absolute joke.

Great post and agree with every word. :)
 
Trump is a as frustrating as any 5-yr old kid you caught being naughty but claims 'I didn't do it! It was my sister!'. Even when presented with irrefutable evidence the kid still claims he diidn't do it. I'm sure many of you will know what I mean lol. 99% of children soon grow out of that behaviour, I guess a few don't even into old age.

Then you live in topsy-turvy land. The fallout from his presidency will be scathing and once all the people that have worked for him and under him are free from the shackles of him actually being president, the gloves will come off and the full extent of how absurd and ridiculous his time in the Whitehouse was, will be laid bare for all to see.

I'm very much looking forward to it.
