Donald Trump on Friday downplayed the toll on American sailors enduring nearly nine months at sea on the USS Abraham Lincoln as concerns escalated about mental health and supply issues aboard the aircraft carrier supporting U.S. operations against Iran.
In a brief exchange with reporters before flying to New York for an event to highlight falling violent crime rates across the U.S., Trump refuted that family members have raised concerns about the deployment’s length and even said that the deployment — which includes a record-setting uninterrupted time at sea of more than 240 days — is “not nearly long enough.”



Well, yes, people can be that stupid. Also, how did you read all of what I posted and not realize it was sarcasm? Or did you see the first few words and rage post?
You’re going to need this.

Yeah, maybe you were right. Good lord.
Yeah, when I saw “I don’t even know what Southern Strategy means” I knew you were in for a ride.
Not for the first replies. But if they double down, then sure, let them have their “victory”. The chain of messages tells the real story.
No you have to agree with the psychopath to not be able to see it, and if you agree, you are no better yourself.
Only a psychopath don’t recognize a psychopath. And Malignant Narcissist is the worst kind of Psychopath there is.
Also it doesn’t look like sarcasm to me, quoting a movie is not sarcasm.
And Reagan is irrelevant to American voters voting for an obvious psychopath. For instance the situation with Russia was completely different. And Reagan actually had coherent policies.
Also Emmett Browns surprise is acting. It is not real.
You should look it up. It will make you realize how deep this goes. Can’t help you with the rest, it was pretty clear, unless you also don’t understand the movie reference. Which is entirely possible, it’s amazing how many memes are shared by people these days who are clueless on the origins. A true loss.
Edit:
Yes I know the movie, I just don’t see how it’s relevant. You quoted that because you mean it.
I doesn’t change anything that you are quoting a movie where the statement may have been correct.
In the context you use it here it is simply wrong.
In general it takes a psychopath to not detect an obvious psychopath consistently behaving like a psychopath, that’s a fact.
Back to the Future
Southern Strategy
Thanks.
Yes back to the future is actually one of my top 3 favorite movies, the whole thing after the first sentence was just such a load of irrelevant gibberish to me, I ignored it.
I don’t see how southern strategy is in any way relevant to detecting Trump is a psychopath or rather malignant narcissist which is psychopath².
I’ve edited 2 of my posts to better reflect my disagreement with what Rhaedas wrote.
Movie quotes or not, he is simply factually wrong.
I’m sorry that you missed many levels of understanding my original post. I wish you could have just asked for clarification instead of the diatribe of anger. Might have made you appreciate the meaning. You seem to have some issues understanding others in this message thread too. Maybe step back a second and take a breath.
I think you are hallucinating there. He is the one who doesn’t understand the meaning of what he wrote.
PS:
Of course I know back to the future and doc and Marty, it’s actually 1 of my top 3 favorite movies. But you just twisted it so much using it in this context it didn’t make the least bit of sense to me, it was like reading gibberish. So I ignored it, and I don’t see how it changes anything about the claim you made in the beginning,
you used that quote because you mean it, and you are dead wrong.
As per my first response.
Yes, a reference to someone being amazed of a person being voted in not qualified as President is totally out of context in this thread.
You would think as long as you’ve been on Lemmy, and probably on other places before that, you’d pick up on a common sarcasm trope like my first line, especially when it’s ended as I did. But I realize Poe’s Law has been dead for a good decade now, so the assumption is always that the person is being real. Never mind the many words later that seem to point otherwise. Right, you ignored them, as attacking on an assumption is always a great move. (that’s sarcasm, btw)
The point he is making is irrelevant, and has no connection to voting for a malignant narcissist.
Yes Reagan was an actor, but he was not a psychopath. Although he was part in leading USA down that road.
The election of Reagan has zero bearing on the ability for people to detect a psychopath, and the fact that only another psychopath can’t.
To claim the American voters didn’t know they were voting for leopards eating faces is moronic. They voted for him BECAUSE of it, not out of ignorance.
