Trump’s malignant pattern: He woos people, rips them off and then abandons them — and he won’t stop
Trump has followed the same manipulative script over and over again, in politics as in business. We're the marks
It’s not just that Trump’s loyalty is only to himself, as should have been obvious given the scores of associates he’s wooed, ripped off and discarded over his long career, including his own lawyers, at times. Rather,
it’s the centrality of this cycle to the way that Trump operates. It’s not a bug, or a feature, it’s the feature of his career — a window both into his abnormal psyche and into the cultural and political dynamics that have allowed him to flourish in the midst of more general ruin.
There was also the matter of how Trump justifies the prospective discarding of associates, and
how he lays predicates for wooing, ripping off and discarding the next crop of eager, willing victim/accomplices.
(“I think it is very unfair to the president,” Trump said of Sessions’ recusal from the Russia investigation — the onlyethical option he had.)
The cycle referred to is most insightfully described in the book “Snakes in Suits: When Psychopaths Go to Work,”
“Snakes in Suits” describes a particular pattern that stands out for the combination of clarity it brings to bear and the broad scope of action it describes. This pattern consists of a three-phase game plan many psychopaths in corporate settings use a when engaging with victims, “a natural outgrowth of their personality” that is often more automatic than consciously planned:he has a long public history of behavior patterns that fit this description,
First, they assess the value of individuals to their needs, and identify their psychological strengths and weaknesses.
Second, they manipulate the individuals (now potential victims) by feeding them carefully crafted messages, while constantly using feedback from them to build and maintain control. Not only is this an effective approach to take with most people, it also allows psychopaths to talk their way around and out of any difficulty quickly and effectively if confronted or challenged.
Third, they leave the drained and bewildered victims when they are bored or otherwise through with them.
The fact that he even stiffs his own lawyers and has several times been sued by themis a prime indicator of his overall pattern.
Trump has traversed the trajectory described countless times, with customers, business associates, lawyers and wives. Why shouldn’t he do the same with everyone in the political world as well?
The large mass of the 3,500 Trump-involved lawsuits uncovered by USA Today exposes the reality of how Trump operates. He rips off everyone he works with, from hourly workers to the biggest banks. “No candidate of a major party has had anything approaching the number of Trump’s courtroom entanglements,”
a comparison with five top real-estate executives found that “Trump has been involved in more legal skirmishes than all five of the others — combined.”

The chance to con and manipulate others is a primary motivator for someone with a psychopathic personality disorder; psychopaths like to play games with people.
They often are on the lookout for individuals to swindle or scam, and this first phase of the psychopathic approach involves identifying and assessing targets or prey.
Some psychopaths are opportunistic, aggressive predators who will take advantage of almost anyone they meet, while others are more patient, waiting for the perfect, innocent victim to cross their path.
Following identification of individuals who may be useful to them, psychopaths begin to create a shroud of charm and deceit that we have labeled the psychopathic fiction. This is the beginning of the manipulation phase.
The first goal here is to gain the trust of the individual through ingratiation and various impression-management techniques.
Perhaps one of the most effective skills psychopaths use to get the trust of people is their ability to charm them.
Trump-as-winner is clearly one of his favorite psychopathic fictions,
part of the foundation of virtually everything he’s done in business or politics.
Once psychopaths have drained all the value from a victim — that is, when the victim is no longer useful — they abandon that victim and move on to someone else.
Abandonment is most often abrupt — the psychopath just disappears one day — and it can occur without the current victim even realizing the psychopath has been looking for someone new to use.
He can simply outlast the vast majority of those who would sue him, even governments.
In fact, Trump has repeatedly used his wealth and connections to do more than escape from past responsibilities,
but to regain allegiance of those he’s wronged. There’s nothing he likes more than the adulation of those those he has humiliated.
Peter Thiel's investment in Donald Trump doesn't seem to be paying off
For venture capitalist Peter Thiel, Donald Trump has turned out to be a poor investment.
BuzzFeed News reported on Monday that billionaire investor Peter Thiel, an early supporter of President Trump who served on his transition team, has been quietly criticizing the administration, going so far as saying at a January event:
“There is a 50 percent chance this whole thing ends in disaster.”

‘I hate when people take credit for an election I won’: Trump blows his top over Bannon-praising book
president Donald Trump has once again balked at the notion that his adviser and former Breitbart CEO Steve Bannon won him the election.
Trump complained about a new book by Bloomberg writer Joshua Green that recounts how Bannon’s nationalist fans helped him win the presidency.
“I hate it when people take credit for an election I won,” Trump reportedly said while decrying Green’s book, led Devil’s Bargain: Steve Bannon, Donald Trump, and the Storming of the Presidency.
Trump has complained about the late 2016 Forbes cover story that painted son-in-law and adviser Jared Kushner as the “mastermind” behind his winning campaign.
A few weeks after Trump took office, Trump fumed about a Saturday Night Livesketch portraying Bannon (dressed as a comical grim reaper) as the “real” president.

Cargo Cult Studies Explain Trump Supporters
Despite manifest incompetence, supporting policies that would harm his supporters and obvious constant lying, Trump enjoys support from a core group that remains loyal.
The best explanation for this phenomenon can be found in work anthropologists have done on South Pacific cargo cults.
Thomas Pettigrew explains that though
Trump supporters are not really economically disadvantaged,
they feel like they are not getting their share as other groups get more.
This feeling of relative depravation ties into the cargo cult belief that the social order is breaking down. article
In cargo cults people feel that attachment to a charismatic leader will make them rich.
This concept was manifest in the whole idea of Trump University.
People were led to pay thousands of dollars to get the secret of wealth from The Donald.
When it didn’t work, the answer was to give more money for more Trump knowledge.
It is surprising to some that Christians make up a large percentage of the diehard Trumpists.
The prosperity gospel is now taking up a larger share of the religious audience in America.
Members do not want to hear about a ragged Jew talking about feeding the poor.
They want to know how to become rich.
This gives the Trump cult a solid base within a number of churches.

The White House Is Propping Up Depressed Trump With Two Folders Of Propaganda A Day
Donald Trump receives two folders of
screen grabs, transcripts, and pictures of himself looking strong
each day as the White House using the communications office to compile propaganda that makes Trump feel better.
the folders are filled with
screenshots of positive cable news chyrons (those lower-third headlines and crawls),
admiring tweets,
transcripts of fawning TV interviews,
praise-filled news stories,
sometimes just pictures of Trump on TV looking powerful.![]()

This White House has gone to extreme lengths to try to lift Trump’s depression over his failing presidency.
The White House staged a cabinet meeting where all the members of Trump’s cabinet heaped praise on the President and told him what an honor it was to serve him.
There have been multiple reports over Trump’s first 200 days in office of the President being depressed and
longing to return to his life in New York City. ( Go! Go! Go!)

In a new poll, half of Republicans say they would support postponing the 2020 election if Trump proposed it
Claims of large-scale voter fraud are nottrue, but that has not stopped a substantial number of Republicans from believing them.
But how far would Republicans be willing to follow the president to stop what they perceive as rampant fraud?
Our recent survey suggests that the answer is quite far: About half of Republicans say they would support postponing the 2020 presidential election until the country can fix this problem.

Note that Repug pols are against modernizing/replacing ancient, vulnerable, no-paper-trail voting machines.

Top European Diplomats Just Revealed Trump’s Sinister Obsession With Obama
President Trump’s use of Twitter is unhinged and dangerous, that Trump is intellectually lazy and intensely ignorant of the historical context that defines the modern world, and that he is obsessed with President Obama to a fault.
One diplomat revealed that he and his fellows play “word bingo” whenever the President speaks because his vocabulary is so poor and he is obsessed with hyperbolic adjectives of size and self-congratulation – “Everything is ‘great’, ‘very, very great’, ‘amazing.”
Another diplomat complained about Trump’s complete refusal to do his homework and acquire even a basic familiarity with the world around him.http://washingtonjournal.com/2017/08...session-obama/
“He has no historical view. He is only dealing with these issues now and seems to think the world started when he took office.
He thinks that NATO existed only to keep the communists out of Europe.
He has a similar at ude in Asia-Pacific with Japan, ignoring that the US basically wrote their cons ution.”
Meeting with Donald Trump is “basically useless,” complained one diplomat.
“He [Trump] just bombed us with questions:
‘How many people do you have?
What’s your GDP? How much oil does [that country] produce?
How many barrels a day?
How much of it is yours?’”
“He’s not the kind of person you can have a discussion about how to deal with [Fayez] al-Sarraj [the prime minister of Libya],” the official added.
“So you look for people around him, and that is where it’s a problem:
The constant upheaval, it’s unclear who has influence, who is close to the president.”
But the most disturbing part of their criticisms is the confirmation of a widespread su ion about the President –
he is consumed with a hatred for Barack Obama and intent on destroying his legacy at all costs.
“It’s his only real position. He will ask: ‘Did Obama approve this?’
And if the answer is affirmative, he will say: ‘We don’t.’
He won’t even want to listen to the arguments or have a debate.
He is obsessed with Obama.”
That much has been clear from the way that Trump has frantically waged a crusade against everything President Obama accomplished,
whether it be against his landmark healthcare program or
his environmental protection rules or
even First Lady Mic e Obama’s healthier lunches for schoolchildren program.
Lol "getting In on the ground floor" when later in that thread he said he wouldn't even vote for him and was going to write in Ron Paul

That's alright. I would've voted for Ron Paul, too. But he wasn't an option.

Trump Just Announced He May Launch Military Action Against Venezuela
Trump just said that he is not ruling out a “military option” for Venezuela.
The stunning announcement seems to be – in typical Trump fashion –
spur of the moment,
ill-considered, and
consequently likely to inflame tensions and further destabilize the situation.

If you were a celebrity or an athlete or whatever youd totally give up commenting on politics right?
I found his . King ain't above racist when {{{his}}} white ox is gored:::
[[[Some of "The Green Mile's" biggest problems, however, are inherent in King's original text. Director e Lee, never one to shy away from controversy, called out the movie for its use of the "Magical Negro" trope. As Lee described it in an interview for Cinaste, The Green Mile and other films like The Legend of Bagger Vance and What Dreams May Come "all have these magical, mystical Negroes who show up as some of sort of spirit or angel but only to benefit the white characters...this character has such magical powers that he can touch Tom Hanks and cure him of his urinary tract infection, why can't he use those gifts to walk out of prison?...He'd rather die with Tom Hanks looking on. Get the outta here! That's that old grateful slave ."
King himself vehemently disputed this charge in his 2002 interview with Tony Magistrale. "It's complete bull ." said King. "Coffey was black for one reason only: It was the one sure thing about his character was going to make certain that he was going to burn...I am not surprised that this is e's reaction. It's a knee-jerk reaction of a man who sees everything in terms of his race. And for an artist of his stature, it's a hobbling factor in his creative life."]]]
See, AY, all you have to do is get someone's goat and they go racial every time.
If you were a celebrity or an athlete or whatever youd totally give up commenting on politics right?
Truthfully celebrities dont influence anyone anymore and should shut up since theyre not helping anything but its funny when white trash right wingers tells them to shut up. like if they were famous they wouldnt ramble on and on about politics all the time since its all they can ever talk about half the time now
See, when it's your that's gettin' seized & rummaged thru King gets his dander up and calls (niqqer)---and Lee ain't no better, he whips whitey's ass toot sweet. Both of 'em huffin' & snortin'---lighting into each other at the racial level. When King is calm and it ain't his house that's getting burgled he can be righteous, pious and altogether.
Just shows ta go ya, AY.
