    But not to the extent of the thousands of times Trump has been and continues to end up in court. Trump's litigation is excessive.

    There has been no claim that this alone qualifies an individual as being a psychopath.

    Statement A) Nowhere was it said that satisfying ANY of the stated conditions is qualification. Yet in every case you've incorrectly pretended any of the traits might qualify an individual for being a psychopath.

    That's a MYTH! He has lost his BUTT in real estate. He regularly overpays due to impulsive buying. He's biggest loser was the Taj Mahal. Very poorly planned venture. And it only got worse after he shifted previous bad debts to it. He has repeatedly made impulse buys that turned out to be very bad decisions. Poorly planned ventures are all over the place: Trump steaks, Trump airline, Trump University, Trump Vodka, Trump Pale Ale, Trump Magazine, Trump Mortgage, Trump The Game, Trump The Fragrance, Go Trump.com, Trump Tower Tampa, Trump Tower Panama City, Trump Tower Toronto...

    Trump is doing one of two things, generally. He is either pretending to be friendly because he is pouring on the con job and thinks he has a mark, or he is verbally attacking somebody. There does not appear to be an in between.

    That's part of the con. He is gaining the confidence of haters by telling them what they should be afraid of, namely immigrants. This is not 'showing concern for others,' because he is disregarding the concerns of the immigrants and favoring the concerns of xenophobes, but not showing concern for other Americans who empathize with the plight of the migrants.

    And most people feel some remorse at having done so and try to avoid doing so repeatedly. Not Trump, who uses promise-breaking like a tool.

    A famous example was taking out a full page ad in a major newspaper to call for the death penalty for the Central Park 5, (as if Trump himself should be kangaroo court judge and jury) but then when DNA evidence and a confession definitively proved none of the accused committed the murder, Trump refused to apologize or even change his position. That's not taking responsibility. That's doubling down on a hurtful racist mistake.

    If he wants to show how much he has given he could release his taxes, but that was another lie when he promised he would and never did, giving multiple excuses for why not.

    No, that is incorrect. You have incorrectly applied the conditions individually (Statement A.) An accurate diagnosis is not up to us. Dr Dodes is a psychiatrist. He has studied this field and is far more knowledgeable that you or I. I am taking his word for this over yours. And he is not the only one. Other professionals have made similar assessments. You're soft on Trump, so you are simply looking for any way to deny what these professionals have said. Do you have any professionals who are ready to disagree with these assessments? That would support your case. What you have posted so far does not.

    He often take sucker-punches, attacking someone who has criticized his statements. Now let's be strictly clear on this. Others attack his statements and policy. He offers no defense of what he has done, but immediately goes after them personally. He is king of the ad hominem attack.

    Not any more excessive than any other prominent business. Many businesses have been sued much more often than Trump's businesses have been.

    You made an appeal to Lance Dodes who listed seven traits that define sociopathy. Dodes claimed that Trump meets every one of them. I asked how so. You answered. I am now explaining how your application of those traits to Trump is BS, since it makes basically everyone into a sociopath.

    You appealed to Lance Dodes, who argued that those seven traits define sociopathy and that Trump exudes all seven of those traits. Now, since I showed how ridiculous Dodes is being, you are backpedaling and claiming that what Dodes said doesn't necessarily define sociopathy. So then what's the definition of sociopathy? What makes one a sociopath? Who determines this?

    If he has "lost his butt in real estate", then why is he so rich?? Why are many of his other business ventures succeeding?? You can't simply ignore the ones which are succeeding to this very day.

    LIE. He has never spoken ill of immigrants. He has always been a supporter of legal immigration. He has only spoken ill of illegal immigration; of breaking immigration laws.

    Quote Originally Posted by PoliTalker View Post

    As he should. They are not US Citizens. They are citizens of other countries. He is President of the United States of America. He is not President of Mexico, nor any other country.

    Except it does no such thing. Never was it suggested that meeting just one of the traits resulted in a determination of sociopath. That's your mistake and why you reached an erroneous conclusion.

    That's a good question. If he would release his taxes like he said he would we would be able to see. So it's very suspicious that he won't live up to his word.

    Quote Originally Posted by gfm7175 View Post

    His most profitable product is his name. He has built a brand out of his name. He kind of stumbled into it, actually. He found out what his name was worth when he went bankrupt in the casinos. And all the banks that he owed so much money to got together and had a meeting. They ended up bailing Trump out because if he went bankrupt then all his businesses would also stop producing, and that was going to be an even greater loss. So they made a deal and Trump had to give up ownership of the troubled assets, and he got an allowance to live on as all the other properties were allowed to run and produce under the Trump name.

    After that he realized that just having his name on a project was worth something to the developers. He began selling his name. Many of the Trump properties were not actually owned by him. Like the deal in Panama City. He ran the hotel with his name on it but he didn't own it. The other investors brought money to the table, he brought his name. His management of the Hotel was so bad that it lost money. All the investors lost money and are now suing Trump in the State of New York for their losses.

    Neither do I. I actually feel sorry for him and wish him well. I would really like to see him get some counseling for his problem. That being, of course, that he has no heart.

    Yes, we heard how anyone who disagrees with Trump has 'hatred and vitriol' for him. The problem with that is there needs to be a place for valid criticism, which your position doesn't allow..

    I stake that ground.
    I don't play the "appeal to authority" game...

    After that he realized that just having his name on a project was worth something to developers. He began selling his name. Many of the Trump properties were not actually owned by him. Like the deal in Panama City. He ran the hotel with his name on it but he didn't own it. The other investors brought money to the table, he brought his name. His management of the Hotel was so bad that it lost money. All the investors lost money and are now suing Trump in the State of New York for their losses.

    He called them drug smugglers, rapists and criminals. "They're not sending their best people." And it would have been far more polite to simply say you thought my statement was false.

    He has reduced the number of legal immigrants allowed, and he has declared that we don't want immigrants from S-hole countries.

    Ya might want to recheck the Declaration of Independence. I think it says: 'All men are created equal,' not all American men.

    Why try? It's already oversimplified to the point of absurdity.

    You came up with something refuting every statement, except every one of your assertions was false, as has been shown.

    Neither do I. I actually feel sorry for him and wish him well. I would really like to see him get some counseling for his problem. That being, of course, that he has no heart.

    Yes, we heard how anyone who disagrees with Trump has 'hatred and vitriol' for him. The problem with that is there needs to be a place for valid criticism, which your position doesn't allow..

    I stake that ground.

    Why don't you just call him a fake PhD? It would be just as convincing.

    David-Brooks, the Jew, is no conservative. E.g. he was pro-faggot marriage while most of America was still against it. Wanting increased military spending doesn't make him a conservative, it makes him a pro-war piece of shit. There's nothing conservative about how much money America spends on the military now.

    Of course he called Trump a sociopath. Trump, the moderate, is too conservative for the Jew.
    Ape lives matter. Stop putting them in zoos. Boycott businesses that don't hire apes.

    Then answered all the Jews, and said, Jesus' blood be on us, and on our children. So be it.
    Jews want to turn America into an atheistic, amoral, socialist farmyard.

    Ha HAAAAA!

    Good one.

    I never cease to be amazed that this is the guy the Republicans want to rally around. I would be so ashamed. He is so fake! It's sad what the Republican party has become.
