Why Donny's incompetence worries me more than his evil...

Or why I couldn't care less if Sec. Hillary Clinton was "unlikable" as some yapping heads accused back in 2016. She is competent and accomplished and would have probably made one hell of a good president. Now look where we are. Seems many, maybe most humans just aren't naturally wired to choose effective, competent leadership.

I sometimes think universal suffrage wasn't such a good idea after all. Limited suffrage isn't bad in and of itself. In the past, it was how and why it was limited that was the problem. And why I'm a huge fan of DEI policies meant to search out the best and brightest of us no matter who they are. Kind of dumb to limit that to only white males of certain geographic origins.

1. Is there a rule against posting the same reply on multiple threads?

I’m convinced that everything *Rump says/does originates from his psychopathology and dementia. These conditions have been diagnosed by experts over the past 8-9 years. The latest episode of Shrinking Trump pretty much casts this truth in stone, imho. Until this is generally understood as the underlying context for every new outrage, we are missing the point.

If you listen to nothing else, don’t miss the 20-minute interview with Vince Greenwood, clinical psychologist and expert on psychopathology. His insights on *Rump’s criminal behavior are both enlightening and horrifying. The interview starts at 1:25:07 from the beginning (34:03 from the end).

Shrinking Trump
Trump is in trouble, even with his base!

2. Frankly, I am counting on his incompetence to save the nation...from him.

The old saying "If he knew what he was doing, he would be dangerous" applies here.

I picture his Heritage Foundation handlers with bruises on their faces from slapping themselves in the forehead over and over.
