Yes, history is replete with people naturally gravitating towards nationalist alphas as leaders, ignoring their weaknesses, enabling their worst impulses.He's just one annoying, embarrasing person, a person you'd rather not be around in public. Meh. The problem is that the blind, intense adoration being poured on someone like this is a symptom of MUCH larger sociological issue. It's in the same category as watching the Kardashian girls become mega-celebrities for pretty much no discernible reason. This should be motivating us to seriously and honestly examine how these kinds of people can rise to the top of our society. This is a reflection of US.How someone so unqualified can become president, god only knows.
Definitely. While we have to deal with his grade school-level communication and behavioral issues as he does it, it's good that he's shining a bright light on their behaviors and activities. They don't play fair, they will not play fair, and we can't trust a damn thing they say. Pretty much like Russia. The way we have divided this into the GOP shilling for Russia and the Democrats shilling for China is a damn shame, but that's one of the destructive results of our descent into stupid, petty partisan politics as a country.However, what he has done - and the only time he has been blunt that I agree with - is give it to the Chinese communist party. And I specifically say the CCP, not the Chinese people themselves. The rest of the world needed a wake up call, and Trump has given it. I hope other nations listen to him and not suck up to them.
People naturally gravitating towards alphas as leaders. That's because that's what big dogs were designed to do.
Just because you can't stand the chest beating etc. does not mean it is not supremely effective. Only your feels need fixing here.
No thanks. Not a good track record. We've learned nothing.
