"Everyone knows nobodies like you don't get to go"

It's like Trump has issues with basic child development of mind.

It's like he's permanently stuck between a state of everyone having a state of false-belief until he discovers something and everyone else having a state of positive-belief once he believes something.

There is no understanding of him being able to have a false-belief. He can have a non-belief. But the moment he believes something it becomes a true-belief.

It's why he talks in these absolutes of "everybody" and "nobody" all the time.

I think it was on purpose at some point. It was a tactic of a conman and being able to pivot well. If Trump had one skill it was definitely this conman with charisma.

But, as he gets older, and is losing his mind live in 4k, it sounds like his brain is devolving to that of a child.

Like, I think someone should do the Sally-Anne experiment with Trump. I think his cognitive decline is literally failing and it might explode his brain not being able to say "everybody knows where the marble is" or "nobody knows where the marble is".

One interesting data point is that Trump brags about never having mentally matured past the age of six.

That's a very intriguing test. Off-topic, but I wonder if the initial autistic group might have scored poorly because of a learned worldview that other people always have knowledge that we don't, communicated by undecipherable social cues - thus, it seems perfectly reasonable that Sally would have learned of the marble's new location via this link she would have shared with Anne.

We know you weren't involved Sir, those pedophile parties were only for the ultra wealthy elites.

I really don't know why more reporters don't ask leading questions in an effort to get him to answer honestly. Well I know why cuz they're hacks and they're they're in on it. But if I was a White House reporter one of the first things I would say would be something akin to " Israel has continuously violated the ceasefire you negotiated, do you think this tarnishes your legacy and do you think Israel's doing this purposely as a sign of disrespect to you?" Shit like that.

You'd only ever get the one question

One worthwhile question is better than 100 useless ones If

[–] Revan343@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

My point was more that anyone who would get themselves filtered out by asking the question has already done so

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

Yes that's what the second sentence in my original comment was addressing.

"That's a terrible question! What kind of journalist asks a question like that? That's not even a journalism question, it's just a bad, terrible, awful question from a bad, terrible, awful person! Whoever hired you should be fired and your whole organization should be put under review for you asking such an awful question!"

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

That's how he answers the safe and benign questions. Might as well ask him something that has a chance of riling him up.

No way those young girls would have sex with some like you, no way Mr. Trump. Maybe Jeffrey but not you.
