Trump47 First Week & Beyond Catch-All

[Ramrouser]

Do the other members of "the Blonde Supremacy" also wear crosses on their necklaces? I haven't noticed.

 

[Ramrouser]

Why are so bitter? I thought that God wanted his people to support others, not wish them exiled and fired from their jobs because you don't agree with them and think the are qualified and work hard enough.

Calling me bitter? That's rich on this Board. I posted that while watching the game last evening so I was a bit harsh.

In other words, you're not a grown ass adult capable of managing your childish emotions about the outcome of a sporting event being played by 18-22 year old mercenaries, and just for shits and giggles because the basketball team sucks, you decided to express joy at public servants, whom you don't know and who have never done anything to you, losing their jobs? Does that about sum it up, counsel?

They’ve taken down two portraits of Milley and two walls of USAID aid flyers. It is a small thing in some ways but a Soviet-style disappearing of enemies of the state going on …

I can only assume that the people who have their asses so chapped about people being able to work remotely are simply jealous losers. I can’t think of any other reasonable explanation to give a shit about where and how someone else does their job. Come to think of it, the people who give a shit about how and where other people do their jobs, are the exact same people who give a shit about other people’s genitals or sexual interests. Weird ass motherfuckers who need to get a life.

The answer is probably a lot more simple and less critical...the people who have their asses chapped are extroverts who need that interaction for energy. They get bored and run down at home alone and they get distracted. I think they believe that everyone is like they are, so they assume that if they are bored and get distracted at home then it is that way for everyone. Introverts gain energy being more isolated and tend to operate better without interacting with others. Introvert/extrovert is a scale and not a binary identifier so someone might be more or less towards one side of the scale.

IMO the overall lack of understanding of introvert/extrovert needs is a significant point of friction in the modern office. I think there are far more introverts in the workplace than people understand. Given the open office concept that so many offices have leaned towards over the years, I doubt there are many introverts in the office design/furniture spce.

Since so many misunderstand what those terms mean:
Introverts does not mean someone is socially awkward. It refers to individuals who expend energy interacting with others and who regenerate energy with alone/quiet time.
Extroverts does not mean someone is a social butterfly. It refers to individuals who regenerate energy with interactions with others.
There are social butterfly introverts and socially awkward extroverts. There are massively successful leaders who are introverts.

I can't imagine a worse start for Trump 2.0, and it's getting dramatically worse by the day. I'm starting to think there's no way Trump makes it past July 1. Any MAGAs want to defend the absolute shitshow we're seeing right now?

I'm hardly the only person on this Board or on IC that gets emotionally involved in Tar Heel basketball games even though it is objectively stupid to do so as you articulated. It's called a FAN. No one said it was rational. Although I don't think I'll have that problem the rest of the season since the season is essentially over.

I stand by everything I said about Trump's genius plan for reducing the bloated Federal workforce. I only admitted that my statement of "Go back to Gaza or Iran" was a bit strong and unnecessary.

You really shouldn't post this kind of stuff here given that you've quasi-publicly identified yourself.

If potential clients knew the idiocy you spread on this board daily, they would go elsewhere. I couldn't imagine having you represent me. I'd have to fire you after an hour for gross incompetence.

I think things couldn't be going better for Trump 2.0 and it's ONLY day 9. A majority of Americans agree with me as evidenced by his approval ratings (the highest he's ever had). I can't imagine what he will accomplish by July 1st.

That’s a terrible excuse and one I would expect made by a petulant child, not a grown man. Of course you are not the only person to have an emotional meltdown because your sports team sucks. To my knowledge, you are the only person on this board from what I’ve seen have an emotional meltdown about sports where you then gleefully wish joblessness upon hundreds of thousands or even millions of federal public servants, none of whom you know, and all of whom you called talentless. I’m certain I am far from the only person in your life who has admonished you to grow the hell up and act like an adult just one time.

Well, he's accomplished nothing so far except raise interest rates. He is more likely to tank the economy by July 1 than anything else.

It's only Day 9 and he's already alienated our allies for no reason, created a resistance against the US in Latin America, fucked with financial markets, had two of his executive orders enjoined, lied a few dozen times, broken the law in multiple ways, and played golf. His achievements are?

You said somewhere that you think he is an abuser. He reminds me so much of my father, who abused me and my mom. The mentality is exactly the same, especially when he lost an argument and muttered something like, "y'all are so stupid to believe the virus didn't come from the lab." That's a classic deflection characteristic of so many abusers.

Or, to put it differently, no president has ever been as unpopular as Trump is on Day 9 of his presidency.

Ramrouser is likely typical of MAGAts and Republicans. Unfortunately, the so-called “moderates” and “independents” who voted for Trump likely think he’s doing great so far - he’s deporting brown people in “yuuuge numbers” and “cutting spending” and going after trans people.

Think that was actually someone else who said he was like an abuser, but I definitely said that his kids probably don’t talk to him and I stand by it. I can’t imagine talking to any of my family members who’d callously wish loss of livelihood upon people for no reason other than “own the libs” politics.

I disagree. Ramrouser is EXTREMELY more educated than most MAGAs. I mean, Mercer, but it's still a graduate program. Ram's statements on this board illustrate that MAGA is not constrained by level of education. You can be educated but still be a catastrophically idiotic dumbass when it comes to politics. Even people in the higher echelons of education can show their asses to the world on the regular.

I'm laughing so hard at the thought anyone thinks the last few days have actually been good for Trump 2.0. How completely ignorant must one be???

Is it wrong for me to say that while I'm a bit envious of the degrees people have, I'm often not so of the people that have them?
