sad
Reasoning Wins wrote:
It is sad but so crystal clear that Trump is targeting the uneducated voters who think with their passions and not their brains.
The sad part is that these unfortunate people are such easy targets and he knows it.
He plays to all the things that the lack of education make obvious. The fear of the unknown, hatred of "the other" (xenophobia, misogyny, homophobia and a log list of many other passion triggers).
It seems impossible for them to see that all the things he claims will help them are in actuality against their best interest. They vote their heart-felt passions without using their brains to figure out that if Trump actually does the things he says they will be hurt even worse while the storied 0.01% will profit "Yugely".
Thankfully I believe there are enough reasonable people left in this country that Trump will go down in flames come November. Only time will tell but I, for one, will continue to hope that Americans are much smarter than the ones that Trump is targeting.
From same random saved document ~ 2015. I do not know who Wins is; I am guessing I meant this was his or her reasoning?
Random
Random from an old USB thingy.
“The judge, who happens to be, we believe, Mexican, which is great. I think that’s fine. You know what? I think the Mexicans are going to end up loving Donald Trump when I give all these jobs, okay?” (Curiel ~ who was born in the USA)
Trump: "I was well known, but not really well known. After taxes, I would say I lost $3 million. And I got a billion dollars of free publicity."
“I’m going to open up our libel laws so when they write purposely negative and horrible and false articles, we can sue them and win lots of money. We’re going to open up those libel laws. So when The New York Times writes a hit piece which is a total disgrace or when The Washington Post, which is there for other reasons, writes a hit piece, we can sue them and win money instead of having no chance of winning because they’re totally protected.”

Asked by a reporter whether the airline takeover was boost to his ego, Trump replied, “Truthfully, it was great for the Trump ego.”
Trump Shuttle, which never turned a profit for Trump, was turned over to his creditors in early 1992, as part of the assets Trump had to sell to settle the first of three corporate bankruptcies.

Letter to Congress
How many children and adults need to die before Congress will make laws regarding Well Regulated State militias?
Liquor sales are well regulated; vehicles and drivers' licenses are well-regulated; prescription drug sales, well regulated. The government well regulates just about every aspect of our lives, starting with birth corticates, ending with burial and death certificates.
Why is it so hard to well regulate state militias?
There does not seem to be any state militias; more apt: citizen militias. The Constitution was not written to give citizens the right to kill thy neighbor or slaughter children, concert goers, people watching parades, attending religious services, grocery shopping.
Children should not have to grow up with active shooter lockdown drills, causing fear to go to school. How do parents reassure their children that they will be safe, when they are not assured themselves?
Japan is greater that the USA in stopping mass shootings of strangers. Surely the USA can do likewise?

Brian Kene Lazo
Brian Kene Lazo, was sentenced for his part in J6th attack on Congress.
Officers were pelted with batteries, beer cans, soup cans and rocks.
My notes to clear; I think Brian is the one who attached officers with a metal handrail with metal bracket still attached neary 6 feet long.
This just in ~ djt is hosting a party to celebrate the brave people who courageously attacked Congress and law enforcement on J6th.

"I guess you could say it was surreal, but it wasn't surreal, ya know, I was telling somebody you have instances like this, or a lot less than this where you feels it's a surreal situation and I never felt that way, "
"we need a man, or a person, who is unbelievably sharp, in order to stop all the nuclear dangers, and all the dangers that I am talking about"
djt 08/12/2024 Musk interview
New Hampshire rally:
"We have become a drug-infested, crime-ridden nation, which is incapable of solving even the 'solllest'... smallest problem. The simplest of problems we can no longer solve. We can't do anything. We are an institute in a powerful death penalty. We will put this on.
We have to bring in the death penalty if we want to stop the infestation of drugs coming into our country,"
Sharp as a tack? Nah.

What is nuclear warming?
"ya know, the biggest threat is not global warming, where the ocean is going to rise an eight of an inch over the next 400 years, the big, and you'll have more ocean front property, right, the biggest threat is not that, the biggest threat is nuclear warming" DJT. Musk Interview, 08/12/2024
Trump's mouth gets ahead of his brain. Again. (400 years the big, and you'll have?)

Broken Oath question
“On Jan. 6, we had a great border, nobody coming through, very few. On Jan. 6, we were energy independent. On Jan. 6, we had the lowest taxes ever, we had the lowest regulations ever,” Trump claimed. “On Jan. 6, we were respected all over the world.”
“I did nothing wrong. We have a system that is rigged and disgusting."
The Narcissist's Prayer
Read a quote from The Narcissist's Prayer by Danya Craig. Omigod, I thought, that sounds exactly like DJT.
And if it did, it wasn't that bad.
And if it was, that's not a big deal.
And it is, that's not my fault.
And if it was, I didn't mean it.
And if I did you, you deserved it.
