    He’s so close to using the N-word. Just a little more to push him over the edge…

      There’s been a lot of talk about how he’s going senile or whatever.

      The fact that we know he says the N word, but somehow he doesn’t say it on mic, suggests to me that he still has his mental facilities. His filter still works. (The fact that he does filter himself should give you pause about what’s actually inside his head.)

        You can be pretty senile and still know not to say some things even then when you’re still as able to operate as independently as he is. I know this from my own father who had dementia.

        But honestly, I don’t care whether or not he is really senile. This is politics. All I care about is that people think he’s senile.

          He’s been not saying the n word in public for decades now. It’s probably ingrained into him at this point whether senile or not

        I dont think hes going senile.

        I think hes just getting increasingly frustrated and flabbergasted, because he spent his entire life in a bubble surrounded by yes men telling him he could do whatever he wanted, and get away with whatever he wanted, and had a constant stream of sycophants up his ass praising him and everything he did.

        but since hes got elected president, he… for the first time in his entire life, has met with constant criticism, with constant roadblocks, with constant "NO"s for almost everything he did, does, or tries to do… and its wearing on him. Hes at the end of his rope, he doesnt know what to do or say to elicit the praise he wants from anyone other than the ugly peasant folk that adore him, and that he absolutely detests, and thats leading him more and more to frustrated irrationality and revealing ever more of his true self and opinions.

          This is why being “a good business leader” (not that I’m saying he was that either, since he failed at selling steaks and alcohol to Americans) does not equate to being able to run a country. It’s almost the opposite. You lead a business, your responsibility is to run it as you see fit. You run a country, you have a responsibility to take into account the wants and needs of everyone, even the people you don’t agree with.

            a good business leader makes himself and the company rich, at the expense of everyone and everything else.

            a good president makes everyone prosperous.

            Being a good business leader is like the antimatter to a good presidents matter.

        It’s a good theory but I don’t think it actually works like that. He’d have to be really far gone for that filter to fail.

        My step-dad had dementia and died to a self-inflicted gsw during sundown. He seemed to have control of his mental facilities at lunch. I’m not saying he has dementia I’m just saying that having a filter for 30 minutes isn’t evidence he doesn’t.

    Classic sexism calling a woman who is not instantly agreeable and quiescent “rude and nasty”.

    I think he’s just not used to speaking to women who don’t simper to him? Like there wasn’t anything rude in her tone, it was direct and confrontational. The fact is that he’s said a lot of stuff that you can’t exactly repeat in a polite or civil tone. It’s ridiculous to expect everyone else to be civil when you’re saying rude things yourself

        Because it’s owned/controlled by a single random dude in the US, labels practically everything “left of center”, and drops the credibility rating for anything not pro-israel.
