Accurate observations, it's not looking good for November and beyond is it?

I stopped reading at #1.
In other words, he knows exactly what he's doing, and plans and executes his "media moments" with the cold, dispassionate calculating sobriety of a surgeon.

Freedom of speech is a human right. You either believe it and respect the human rights of others, or you don't.
And Trump doesn't.
For instance?

I don't think so. He's off the cuff, and all over the place with his thoughts, thus, the "cognitive dissonance". Things don't jive in his brain. His thoughts are at odds, they conflict within his own brain. He's mean.
If he were as "calculated as a surgeon" he wouldn't spend so much time apologizing and lying to cover his tracks.
He was kidding, right. We misunderstood, right. He didn't do what it appeared he did, right. He didn't say that, right.
If he was a surgeon he'd be in a constant state of mal-practice suits. ? Oh wait.........

Trump has a solid base among right wing conservatives but with out women, minorities, Jews, moderate Republicans and the disabled. He doesn't stand a chance of being elected.....Clinton won't win, but Trump will lose and it's his own fault for insulting and alienating so many groups that he needs to get elected.
Who will he blame that on....the Media? When I watch TV, all I see is Trump.

Whatever the truth, or the lines in the play.....Donald is portraying a person unable to think outside of his own bubble.
Either way, he's dangerous. Whether he's faking his dissonance, or oblivious to it......makes no end diff.
The damage is already done.

The Trumpledites keep attacking Hillary's character because they cant attack her policies or platform, because they are ignorant to the actual issues and incapable of formulating any solutions or resolutions like their fearless misogynist bigot billionaire leader.
Has anyone realized Trump almost answers every question about his policy or platform with "Build a wall!" no matter what the subject is? Has he actually said he was going to do anything else as president? Besides, you know, crashing the currency and lowering taxes for the rich?
Yeah.. Id be scared and looking for excuses if I was him too.

I will counter with Hillary Clinton. There is enough here to bury the b!tch.
I would vote for Negan over her.
Who cares about "words" and "feels".
Find another hero.
Enough said.

I'm writing this to illustrate the cognitive dissonance of Mr. Donald Trump... And his followers.

I got two replies into the thread and the political bickering had already begun.
The Cognitive Dissonance of the Trump is a very stimulating topic and a very important one to understand, but right away too many want to turn it into a political argument of some type.
It isn't a political discussion, it is about the guy mental illness, and he is mentally ill.
I wish I had enough money to say anything I wanted, regardless of how stupid and offensive it may be because I had lawyers on retainer to squelch anyone with a retort, I would probably be a big stupid bully on my bad days too.
Does this #ing idiot ever have a good day though?.
