Have a little game; how many of these descriptions could fit to Donald Trump recent behavior? 1. Subtle short-term memory changes 2. Difficulty finding the right words 3. Changes in mood 4. Apathy 5. Difficulty completing normal tasks 6. Confusion 7. Difficulty following storylines 8. A failing sense of direction 9. Being repetitive 10. Struggling to adapt to change

BrutalistMcDonalds posted:He comes across as having high-functioning aspergers syndrome / autism coupled with age. He lacks a "theory of mind" or the idea that other people have different perspectives than his own, which is why he has no filter and seems perplexed that people oppose him. A typical president would come up with a (true: often self-serving) analytical reason for their opposition, but Trump doesn't seem capable of that. Trump is like "It's crazy they don't like Trump. Other people like Trump. I think I'm doing a great job, too! It's weird they don't like the great, amazing job I'm doing!" That's more like narcissistic sociopath (like many people of power) than aspergers

In that particular transcript he seems normal to me? I dunno. I mean I get the dude doesn't come off as particularly intelligent, wise, or well-spoken, and I personally don't think he is.

As a person who is awful with names, I won't fault him for that considering the amount of new people he meets and talks to, likely more than 20-50 a day, at least 32 Russians, and especially right after he was elected. somethingawful bf fucked around with this message at 09:21 on May 12, 2017 |

People have speculated he has poor literacy but I think it's more that he just has a very hard time focusing on long sentences and paragraphs.

I'm still trying to understand the appeal, you see. There's lies in there, blatant misunderstandings, excessive narcissism, and a general confusion that would worry me if he were my taxi driver. Why do you feel despite such obvious characteristics (for convenience sake we'll consider this in a vacuum instead of roping in his actions in as well) he deserves your support, your defense and the presidency of the United States? I less fault people for voting for the man, then I do coming to the defense of the man. Can we not call a spade, a spade?

I'm losing interest! That's why I didn't answer the question, this isn't DnD. I will say that a vast majority of the information regarding Trumps "wrong-doing", are exaggerated, mostly non existent or even completely fabricated. I'm not going to assume he's guilty of anything until I see proof. None of this "Unnamed", "unknown", "anonymous", "unverified", "uncorroborated", "suggests", "implies", "assume" poo poo that fills nearly every single article about him.
