Excellent! Happily passing it along. Thanks.
One sentence that stuck out with me was, "President Trump is the first human being to win this nations highest office without having held any other political office or serving as a general." Quite an accomplishment.
I have never had any concern about Trump and never experienced any 'red flags' re Trump. (Believe me, I trust red flags.) Ablow's comments about the people he's chosen and the market high speaks volumes.
President Trump has a wonderful family and even his ex-wives love him. A great family says a lot about a guy. How could anyone not be impressed with Trump?
If you want to talk psych stuff, think about this: The left is still in gross denial and will not accept the election result. It has gone on so long, it is now delusional.
I think a lot of the vitriol about Trump has to do with envy. Who on the left even comes close to Trump's gravitas? The psychodynamics of envy involve wanting to destroy the 'envied object' at an unconscious level. Also, there's an association with shame and envy. Some brief articles:
Envy Theory: A New Model of the Mind From the article:
"Overt behavioral indicators of unconscious envy are suggested when one senses another to be disturbingly intrusive, greedily acquisitive, withholding, and generally unhelpful. All self-undermining attitudes and behaviors are rooted in unconscious envy. Those who are prone to anger---irrationally perceiving that they are unfairly treated or that wrongs are done to them unjustly---may have strong, underlying envy."
Shame and How It Produces Envy Shame and guilt tied in with envy.
Envy and Jealousy From the article:
"Almost nobody would say, Im envious that youre better-looking than I am. You cant change the way you or the other person looks. Few people would admit, Im envious that you have a spouse and children while I havent had a relationship in years. To admit to such feelings acknowledges a level of hatred most personal relationships cant tolerate. For the truth is that envy, the green-eyed monster, wants to destroy what it cannot have. The solution to envy the way to find relief from the suffering it causes if you cant have what you envy for yourself is to make the envied object less worthy of that emotion, by spoiling or destroying it."
Many dem politicians and most in the MSM have a 'fake narcissism' that buoys up their fragile egos. When the see a guy like Trump, the 'real deal', their insecurities and inadequacies look at them in the mirror. That is unacceptable, so they focus on Trump and work on destroying him, his presidency and his platform. Witness the Mueller Special Counsel psychosis. Lots of psychodynamics with the left. . . some of it potentially dangerous. .
Stay safe President Trump and beef up your Secret Service and personal security detail. We want you to have eight years of Winning!
Or trying to make the ocean rise by peeing it.
They are literally lost and a pitiful bunch.
See my tagline.
Al Franken molests bears. More at 11:00!
Remember the fact that we used to be in the majority. What started to change the tide was Nixon. He gave voice and credence to the left due to his stupid paranoia. We need to use President Trump as our reversal tide to sway people back to our side, and have them see the left as the power hungry group that they are who want to destroy the concept of freedoms for the human race. Freedoms that were originally conceived by the conservative thinkers who were more interested in the individual rather than the collective. That understood individual freedom, while not without its problems, still provided the better venue for the brightest among us to shine and innovate to improve the lot of mankind in larger numbers as never before in history. While liberalism has made that progress retreat to a place where the rich get richer and the majority get locked.
Our opportunity is in front of us, while the left is currently floundering in disarray due to the abject failure of socialism when put into actual practice in terms of economics, as well as, social conduct. There must be a certain level of standards for society to function together, peacefully.
100% putz ...
Trump has already been one of the best Presidents. That’s why they hate him.
Great article...I’m going to share it...
That’s the one! Thank you!
Hey Viking dude, that's like ringing the dinner bell. And, I just threw up a little in my mouth.
Thanks.
Thanks for that good reply. I understand all that and I was generalizing.
My approach to most liberals has been to present things in a way that they can understand on a personal basis...one that they can relate to. It works pretty well for some and others can’t grasp it. Most can’t see the big picture so it must be brought down to their level.
Donald Trump did and continues to do a great job in that regard. Thus the crossover last election. He received more Reagan Democrats than Reagan.
Unfortunately, most libs continue to be Useful Idiots.
bttt
I would love to see his opinions on 0bama and Hillary Clinton also.
