    I am amused that whenever someone engages a sociopath lying leftist, they come back with lame meme's like this. Yep, in the Fascistic world of the leftist, defending the facts makes you a Trump ass kisser.

    November it going to be a bad month for leftist losers like you.

    of course they're dumbing us down. "there are 31 genders" is part of the dumb, and so is "monopolies are fine because they're efficient."

    (you mbas know better, "single point of failure" anyone?)

    Hello Casual Leftist,

    They are in a race with each other to see who can accumulate the most wealth before they die. If they perceive someone else is surpassing them, they feel like a failure. They have made the mistake of equating wealth with happiness.

    The world is chock-full of geniuses who have not used their intelligence in the pursuit of excess wealth. Truly smart and happy people understand there is far more to life than accumulating wealth. You need enough wealth to have your needs met and a little extra to enjoy some splurging, but too much wealth can be a burden, causing great stress. Being trapped in the wealth race is a sad trap.

    I know a fellow who made a killing in the stock market young and was independently wealthy by age 35. He was free to live a life of ease without ever working. He ended up being a yacht captain for some very wealthy people, and eventually just got his own yacht and began wandering whereever he felt like going. He sends me emails with good jokes and stories of his adventures. I'm glad my friend is enjoying life the way he wants to.

    I look at IMPOTUS and I see a very sad man. He could have stopped being so controversial and just begun enjoying his own life a long time ago, being independently wealthy at age 30. He chose to chase after more of what he already had plenty of, the fool. And it is a crying shame to see that if he had simply invested his money wisely in market-based funds, he would be far richer today than after all the conniving and bankruptcies. But it was never about the money for him. He already had far more than he would ever have needed. He has spent his life trying to prove something to himself and his father, and he has failed. He has been trying to prove a lie. The lie is that the family wealth came on the up and up. His father ripped off the government program to house America after WWII. That is where the wealth came from.

    IMPOTUS has lived a wasted life marred by bankruptcies, court cases and divorce. He loudly proclaims to any willing ear that he has been a victim, that everyone is out to get him. What a shallow fool. He had it made and he didn't even know it. He should have taken a fraction of his fortune and gotten himself some really good mental counseling, but his ego wouldn't let him do it. So many people in this world could use that help to sort out their personal mysteries but can't afford it. He could and never availed himself of it. He is a fool on top of a fool. One thing he is not is the great leader America needs. Anybody who thinks he is - is a fool.

    True happiness can't be bought. It has to be earned. And that means getting your head in the right place.

    Addicted to power, slave to it, fear of not having enough.

    He’s Donald J Trump, a grifter and con man in this to benefit himself. I hate the fact that he has no policy, he stumbles along, ineptly doing what the career politicians preach to him. The fact that our debt has increased exponentially under his watch concerns me.

    so to them love has no meaning


    they feel no compassion ( they believe compassion is a fake idea)


    whats left ?

    convincing themselves they are BETTER than those people who believe love and compassion is real


    they see complete humans as fools or liars


    they are physically understanding and feeling love and compassion.


    they truly believe in their BROKEN STATE that the only things that matter is winning


    how dosent matter


    rules are just a joke to them


    they have no love or compassion and rules were invented by people with love and compassion in their hearts


    They don't know they are the broken ones


    so evil acts seem reasonable to them


    to them the only thing that matters is being on top of others






    HOW DO WE DEFEAT THEM?????


    telling the world and them that they are broken


    PROVING TO EVERYONE THEY ARE THE BROKEN ONES



    WHY WOULD WE LET SUBPAR HUMANS RULE OVER THE COMPLETE LOVING AND COMPASSIONATE MEMEBERS OF OUR SOCIETY?


    DONT LET THOSE WITH A BRAIN THAT CANT FULLY FUNCTION DUE TO BAD WIRING OWN OUR FUTURE



    COMPASSIONLESS AND LOVELESS HUMANS ARE PRETTY EASY TO SPOT HUH.


    TIME TO SHAME THE BROKEN ONES BACK INTO THEIR PROPER PLACE IN SOCIETY


    MOST HUMANS ARE NOT BROKEN


    ONLY ABOUT 4% ARE SOCIOPATHS


    WE VASTLY OUTNUMBER THEM



    THEY CANT WIN IF WE ALL GO AFTER THEM
    You've got good intentions but you're letting the power junkies get to you psychologically.

    Anger is a great political motivator but it is not the whole story and never should be.

    Wisdom and philosophy must play a part.
