I have been giving a bit of thought to Trump's ability to deny stuff that he has said or done on a regular basis. It dawned on me that this guy is doing, exactly, what others have done when they have problems with their memory. For instance, 25 years ago he was pretending to be his own spokesman. At the time he was asked about it and he readily admitted that he did do that. Now he claims he not only didn't remember doing it but denied he ever did it. The man has now done this sort of thing so many times that I am beginning to take him at his word and that he really didn't remember the incident. He has been called out on any number of things that are readily provable yet Trump continues to deny any knowledge. I wonder how his short term memory is as he has also denied stuff that he has, basically just done.

If I am right about this then the man may be well on his way to full blowed dementia.

What Would It Take for Donald Trump to Deport 11 Million and Build a Wall?

Julia Preston, Alan Rappeport and Matt Richtel

May 19, 2016

Quote
... Donald J. Trump's vow to restore what he says is America's lost luster ... comes with campaign promises that are equally grandiose. But Mr. Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee, has typically provided scant details on how he might make good on his promises -- and ambitious ideas, even the concrete kind, do not always add up.

Central to Mr. Trump's campaign, and to his national security strategy, is his intent to clamp down on illegal immigration, using a vast deportation "force" to relocate people to the other side of a wall, funded by Mexico, that would stretch nearly the length of the southern border ...

I have always just taken that as a given.

Like so many other inheritors of wealth and privilege, all through history -- like Louis XIV, the "Sun" King -- he has a hazy sense of distinction between himself and God.

Monsters from the Id

... Trump is the furthest thing possible from an ideological candidate, which is why he has driven those for whom ideology is paramount absolutely mental this election cycle. He cares not a whit for von Mises, or Hayek, or Ronald Reagan, and I doubt whether he would know the first two names mentioned. He is, in essence, the monster from the Id, the perfect Ayn Rand candidate who exists only to serve himself, and if other folks benefit in the bargain, so be it ...

On the other hand, if the thought of Hillary Clinton -- whose Id rages even more furiously than Trump's -- as president doesn't terrify you, I suggest checking yourself for a pulse. Mrs. Clinton, filled with hatred and a lust for vengeance that would put Hagen to shame, would rampage through the American government like none other, Obama himself included ...

Golem ... after listening to Mr Trump this afternoon, I can now make my prediction for the general .... doesn;t matter who the Democrat nominee is (which includes God)

Mr Trump by 2%

American ignorance will trump (pun intended) any rational policy directives from any Democrat




ignorance is the enemy
without equality there is no liberty
Save America - Lock Trump Up!!!!
