No actual Canadian military man could be as full of crap as you are, so I am calling you out as a total fake military man and as a pedo luver too.


Oh, well.

Crazy Pants doesn't believe me.

Oh well.

What was in the leaked memos?

In memos to the British government which date from 2017 to the present, Kim Darroch, said Trump "radiates insecurity" and advises officials in London that to deal with him effectively "you need to make your points simple, even blunt."

Darroch reportedly said Trump's presidency could "crash and burn" and "end in disgrace", in the cache of secret cables and briefing notes sent back to Britain seen by the Mail on Sunday

"We don't really believe this administration is going to become substantially more normal; less dysfunctional; less unpredictable; less faction riven; less diplomatically clumsy and inept," Darroch allegedly wrote in one dispatch.

The paper said the most damning comments by Darroch described Trump, who was received by Queen Elizabeth II during a state visit to Britain just last month, as "insecure" and "incompetent".

A memo sent following the controversial visit said the president and his team had been "dazzled" by the visit but warned Britain might not remain "flavour of the month" because "this is still the land of America First".

How can any government function if they cannot communicate with their people?

Does the whole world have to pretend that Trump is normal and that America is ok?

Well, gee, how else is a bigoted, ignorant, incompetent, narcissistically self-serving president gonna be able to trust those around him?

Funny how the economy starts running on all cylinders when you put qualified people in the right positions

The Psychological Quirk That Explains Why You Love Donald Trump

The popularity of the GOP front-runner can be explained by the Dunning-Kruger Effect.



Many commentators have argued that Donald Trump’s dominance in the GOP presidential race can be largely explained by ignorance; his candidacy, after all, is most popular among Republican voters without college degrees. Their expertise about current affairs is too fractured and full of holes to spot that only 9 percent of Trump’s statements are “true” or “mostly” true, according to PolitiFact, whereas 57 percent are “false” or “mostly false”—the remainder being “pants on fire” untruths. Trump himself has memorably declared: “I love the poorly educated.”
But as a psychologist who has studied human behavior—including voter behavior—for decades, I think there is something deeper going on. The problem isn’t that voters are too uninformed. It is that they don’t know just how uninformed they are.



Psychological research suggests that people, in general, suffer from what has become known as the Dunning-Kruger Effect. They have little insight about the cracks and holes in their expertise. In studies in my research lab, people with severe gaps in knowledge and expertise typically fail to recognize how little they know and how badly they perform. To sum it up, the knowledge and intelligence that are required to be good at a task are often the same qualities needed to recognize that one is not good at that task—and if one lacks such knowledge and intelligence, one remains ignorant that one is not good at that task. This includes political judgment.
We have found this pattern in logical reasoning, grammar, emotional intelligence, financial literacy, numeracy, firearm care and safety, debate skill, and college coursework. Others have found a similar lack of insight among poor chess players, unskilled medical lab technicians, medical students unsuccessfully completing an obstetrics/gynecology rotation, and people failing a test on performing CPR.
This syndrome may well be the keyto the Trump voter—and perhaps even to the man himself. Trump has served up numerous illustrative examples of the effect as he continues his confident audition to be leader of the free world even as he seems to lack crucial information about the job. In a December debate he appeared ignorant of what the nuclear triad is. Elsewhere, he has mused that Japan and South Korea should develop their own nuclear weapons—casually reversing decades of U.S. foreign policy.
Many commentators have pointed to these confident missteps as products of Trump’s alleged narcissism and egotism. My take would be that it's the other way around. Not seeing the mistakes for what they are allows any potential narcissism and egotism to expand unchecked.

Cliffy- Is any of what's written above important? How much of your life is dedicated to thoughts about Trump? What's going to happen is going to happen. If he makes it to the next election the voters will decide. If he gets impeached or dies or gets thrown in jail it all becomes a moot point. Is there not one aspect of your life that is more important than Trump? I've always admired some things about you but Trump is destroying you or at the very least robbing time where you could be doing so much more. For awhile I was getting to the point where I was spending half an hour a day on his topics, but no longer, five minutes is more than ample which I've already spent here. For your own sanity Cliffy, give it up.

You know how it works with little kids...

Little girl: "Mommy! Mommy! Little Ralphie threw rocks at me at recess!"
Mommy: "That just means he likes you dear!"

;)
Cliffy wants Trump, and Trump, having some class, wants nothing to do with Cliffy. So Cliffy goes around and lies about him all around town like an unHolywierd casting couch b*tch.
It's REVENGE!

Hell hath no fury like a *place your treetarded pronoun here* scorned ( "left" behind).

You might want to take a look at following the advise I just gave Cliffy. Too much time is being squandered on one man, be he good or bad!
Hey, paychecks are hard to come by in this Trudeau ecoNOmy.

A person has to specialize to get the big bucks.

Study:
Psychiatric Diagnoses
Are ‘Scientifically Meaningless’
In Treating Mental Health​

That’s why a new study conducted at the University of Liverpool has raised eyebrows by concluding that psychiatric diagnoses are “scientifically meaningless,” and worthless as tools to accurately identify and address mental distress at an individual level.
https://www.studyfinds.org/study-psychiatric-diagnoses-are-scientifically-meaningless/

OK, that's done, so now whats the next trumphate fakenewspeak?
