I am the “enemy within”. ↩

Trump meets the constitutional age requirement, but that’s saying little. Plus Trump is dementia-ning! Talking about Arnold Palmer’s balls, no it’s not Titlist; it’s that part of the anatomy that LPGA pros don’t have. ↩

Wikipedia — Trump derangement syndrome ↩

Trump’s sycophants, acolytes, and cul members, are just as infantile as Trump with his name calling and labeling. ↩

Rabid Trump Disease. ↩

The Republican Party died July 2016 when it chose Trump as its candidate for president. ↩

Trump whines, “It’s not fair! Biden has weaponized the Justice system against me!” Yet, when he gets into office the second time, he’s going to direct the Department of Justice to target his political enemies, and the enemies within. ↩

That childish behavior of calling people names. ↩

Two words. Trumper Tantrums ↩

Flattering Trump allows one to manipulate Trump. Vladimir Putin is former KGB. He knows how to control Trump. ↩

Absolute, total, fucking, lacking, devoid of ability or willingness to compromise.
There is no ability to work towards a win-win situation; which could become a lose-lose scenario.
With Trump, it is “I win. You lose.” ↩

• financial loans
• insurance
• golf
• elections (tries to) ↩

I’d call it thievery when one pays less than the agreed upon contracted price for goods or services. It was in Wikipedia or a news story on the web that Trump paid something like 30% for several grand pianos for his casinos.
It’s like I buy a Ford truck priced at $100,000 and I tell the dealer, “It’s a good truck, but it’s not worth $100,000. I’ll pay you $30,000 for the truck.” ↩

//Intense gaslighting techniques are making it difficult for Montana’s commoners to discern what’s truth and what’s propaganda.
— Steve Kelly
//This corporate gaslighting effectively blames children for being addicted to social media and conveniently ignores how companies have intentionally designed their products to have addictive features …

Federal prosecutor, Jack Smith, layed out compelling, iron-clad indictments revised for Trump, the citizen running for reelection, and not then President Trump, where he would, and did claim presidential immunity; the Supreme Court directed Smith to not include presidential duties. I cannot bring myself to strike through his federal case. ↩

I’m a Chevy guy and Tahoe is a model name. I love it! ↩

People with INTP preferences are quiet, thoughtful, and analytical. They tend to put a great deal of consideration into everything they do. INTPs are generally easygoing and genuine. They might seem to “zone out” from time to time while they consider new concepts or explore how something works. They are often happiest laying low and working hard behind the scenes. While they may seem impersonal with people they don’t know well, they like to have a close group of people they open up to. They are naturally adept at building structural models or coming up with new concepts for solving problems. They tend to see the world as a system that can be analyzed, and this is how they approach just about everything in life.

I had to Google the GOT Personality Test. Oh, I don’t subscribe to HBO, so all I know of Game of Thrones is that’s it’s sorta like King Arthur set in medieval times.
I took the GOT Personality Test. I saw that reference in a LinkedIn news article about using personality tests to get the right balance of different personalities. I think using a personality test to determine employment is a form of discrimination and I use that rather strictly because there’s race discrimination and gender discrimination. ↩

As of April 27, 2023, I deactivated my Twitter account based on this Elon Musk tweet:
@ElonMusk: Anyone making materially false statements on this platform will get Community Noted, including you, me, Tucker, advertisers, head of state, etc. No exceptions.
Convince the people and let the chips fall where they may.
@RalphHightower: Seriously? Yet you welcomed back a pathological liar, Donald Trump, who incited and welcomed violence in an attempted coup d’état on January 6 in the storming of the U.S. Capitol. Twitter has gone to HELL! ↩
