      Trump has a lot that seems might be wrong with him, but schizophrenia never really seemed to be on the list. Narcissism, dementia, psycho-/socio-pathy, compulsive lying, and possibly more, but I’ve never gotten the feeling he displayed the hyperpatternicity I associate with schizophrenia.

        Honestly he sounds like just about every old man I’ve ever met, rambling on about whatever nonsense is running through his head at any given moment.

          It is kinda funny watching the American Exceptionalism finally crumble before our eyes. Shame most Americans aren’t reflective enough to realise what’s happening.

            This 100%. You’re getting downvoted but I don’t think Americans realize how irritating their fellow countrymen can be on the internet and in person to non Americans. There’s also the defaultism as if everyone is American (or wants to be American) which gets REALLY tiring after a while

            American exceptionalism is the belief that word special, for good or bad. It’s just pouring on a different kind of Americans exceptionalists, the one who think our trajectory is something new.

            Also, we do. A lot of us do…

          Its extremely funny seeing idiot Americans who voted (and those who didnt vote at all) for a 34 count rapist felon, seditionous traitor and then protest by holding little signs and wearing pink jackets.

          You guys only use your 2nd amendment rights in schools against children. America is a circus and Americans are the clowns.

            The people who go out and protest are very likely people who voted, and not for him.

            What you are doing is lumping 65% of the population that isn’t like that with the 35% minority that is partially like that. Don’t be ignorant.

            Interestingly, I don’t think that’s going to happen. OPEC could decide to ramp up production if USA lowers theirs. Demand for oil isn’t rising the way it used to due to alternatives not only becoming viable but actually cheaper as well.

          Armchair Derangement Syndrome. It’ll be in the DRM-3000, the biggest and best book by the bestest doctors who have spent decades researching the woke mind virus. It’ll also cover things like “Fluoride Delusion Disorder” - the belief that fluoride in public water isn’t a government brainwashing program.

        It’s always disappointing to see how much people on here hate people with mental disabilities. Under no circumstances would anyone be OK with comparing Donald Trump to another minority. I think even insulting him by calling him fat is perceived as too gauche. But ableism? 100% OK by most of Lemmy.

          I think most people on here are frustrated with the “sanewashing” by most media outlets.

          The drumbeat of “ableism” is more of a bell ringing to make sure that people understand that Krasnov is very unwell and seriously unfit for any decision making position.

          Wanting someone with disastrous mental health issues to not be capable of launching a nuclear strike isn’t ableism.

          Would you loan a gun to a friend who’s been really depressed lately? According to you, you should.

          They don’t hate people with disabilities, they just don’t want them to be President.

            That’s ableist though. Implies disabled people are inherently inferior if you don’t want them to be president.

            Roosvelt was in a wheelchair much of his time and he did “fine”.

            (Technically I’m against the idea of politicians at all so don’t feel like glorifying them).

              We’re not talking about “disabled people”, we’re talking about people with mental illness that impairs them.

              Roosvelt was in a wheelchair much of his time and he did “fine”.

              Physical disability is absolutely not be the same thing. Would you vote fuckin Ted Bundy for President?

              Okay so just complete anarchy then? Everyone for themselves?

              Airline pilots and train drivers must be passed as mentally fit before they’re allowed to control the destiny of a few thousand people.

              Perhaps at least that much care could be taken with the job that holds the ability to launch nuclear weapons.

        You’re right. There’s absolutely no evidence of Trump being not of sound mind.
