Zhong Lu + 845 July 9, 2020 Both Ivanka and Trump's sons are pretty ordinary and decent people, so that is to Trump's credit. Though that could be because of Melania. But still, Trump's children has turned out better then him. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you tell me you're a friend of the family, that's one thing. If you're making some sort of armchair diagnosis from your den, that's quite another.

Zhong Lu + 845 July 9, 2020 (edited) Ivanka at least doesn't lie nearly as blatantly as her dad. Trump is a pathological liar because he lies even when there's no reason to. Mary Trump's book confirms pretty much everything I already suspected: that Trump was raised by an emotionally abusive dad and that he cheats in everything and has the moral fiber of the average sociopath. I've met sociopaths with asshole dads. That particular person happened to be a Democrat who hates Republicans. If he became president [God forbid] I'd assume he'd behave a lot like Trump [blatant lying, blaming others, etc.]. Neither party has a monopoly on assholes. When Trump became president I knew exactly how his presidency was going to turn out, and so far it's met my expectations. Sociopaths don't make good leaders. Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Communist, Liberterian, whatever. The ideology doesn't matter. That's where most of you ideologues get wrong. SOCIOPATHS DON'T MAKE GOOD LEADERS. Period. [On an unrelated note, how do you tell apart between sociopathy and psychopathy? I do it by observing how they lie. Psychopaths lie strategically. Sociopaths lie because they can't help it. Consequently, while I'm sure I've met sociopaths, I'm not sure if I'm met psychopaths. By definition they're hard to spot] Edited July 9, 2020 by Zhong Lu 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
