Trump says g****l w*****g is a h**x and that we should use as much oil and coal as we please; Trump says that a massive tax cut during a period of almost full employment will create a tremendous amount of new jobs and no deficits; Trump says that tariffs will equalize our trade balances and be good for the economy.
Has anyone heard Trump discuss any one of these topics for more than two sentences? I haven't, but I've read much from many experts who disagree with him on each of these points. Could the country be being lead down the garden path by a neophyte?

Trump actually thinks that he knows things because he heard it on fox and fiends.

Trump has a unique talent for doing the worst possible things in complicated situations where much more careful strategy needs to be implemented.

He is utterly and truly clueless, and any question session about any topic could easily prove that. He mimics the words of the last person he's talked to about any given topic, and that's why he does such mind melting about faces right after making i***tic proclamations.

Bla, bla, bla. Total opinion. No t***h or sense.

But can Trump be educated? I am not optimistic that it can be done?

Trump & the art of the deal... we've been conned by a pro & yes it is an art... just not an ethical or honorable one... I bet he has a good laugh every night calling the American people suckers...

They believe he actually wrote the book when his mind shuts down after reading a paragraph.

Trump is 5 steps ahead of all the l*****t i***ts. He has them all bedazzled, heads a spinning.

Have you ever had an employee, friend, or co-worker that acted like they were experts at something, or knew everything ( I have an Uncle that believes he's an expert at, and knows, everything ), but really weren't and didn't? When the extent of their actual knowledge is espoused in the first 1 or 2 sentences, they begin to repeat themselves. When pontificating on a subject, knowing they're basically clueless, not only will they repeat the same information multiple times - they begin the process I call "subject salad". Subject salad is the technique whereby the individual attempts to confuse the listener by combining multiple subjects into the "explanation", content not related to the original question, or subject. The f**e expert will often include attacks on other persons as a further disguise, blaming someone else for wh**ever is under discussion, as an unconscious excuse for failing to know what they're talking about.

Politicians often use a technique I call "politi - speak", which is an offshoot of "legaleeze", which is a process of rambling on and on and saying essentially nothing, meant to confuse the hell out of whoever they're talking to. This leaves the listener with the unenviable task of trying to cypher out something meaningful. The technique is quite successful ( which is why it's so popular ), because humans will hear what they expect to hear ( un-consciously of course )...................whether that content was in the speech or not.

All of the above is related to a technique I call the "used care salesman dance", which is not relegated to used car salesmen alone, but is employed by sales persons universally. This technique involves throwing copious amounts of data at the "mark", or potential customer, information that is often false or nonsensical. The salesperson talks fast, with few pauses between sentences, blasting the mark with irrelevant details, designed to make the object of the sale seem like the marks dream-come-true. Here's an example:

"this car has extremely low miles, mostly highway miles by the way, did you know this car got the JD Power award for fuel economy? It's fully loaded and went through our 100 point safety check and comes with a free carwash, I bet you like to hit the road in the spring and cruise am I right? You won't find another car like this one anywhere in the country, certainly not for this insanely low price, Taylor Swift owns a car just like this one and she'd be jealous if she knew someone else had one too. Nobody else can sell you this car for this price, but you need to decide quick, because I got 20 more customers interested in it and they're on their way" You get the drift.

If those who read this do not see some similarities to the behavior of people they know ( or have seen on TV )........................they just died.

The left knows what trump is but the GOP refuses to let him die.

Impressive ipnmajor. We could find it amusing if the subjects weren't so serious.

He who laughs last laughs best. You'll find out.

Two points; check his bank account and his record at being the President of the United States. Can’t be very unknowing. I bet on clever. What about you, you don’t seem to get it!!

I think that our left leaning buddies were on to trump from the very start... that's why they didn't v**e for him... it's his base he needs to stay ahead of before they figure him out...
