Funny how the reich denies any kind of false information distribution. But look at Trump as he leans on ‘IO D's of opposition tactics Re: “Trump calls Mueller team ‘a disgrace to our Nation’ ” (Page A4-, Nov. 16): Once again, President Trump spewed forth that the Robet Mueller investigation team is a “disgrace to our Nation.” In basic Psychology 101, this practice is known as projection — blame-shifting by people to defend themselves against their own guilt or unpleasantness. In Donald's world, this behavior appears in many of the “Donaldisms.” without fail, he uses the 10 D’s of opposition tactics against accusers (read “enemies”): deflect, delay, deny, discount, deceive, divide, dulcify, discredit, destroy and deal. When responding to even the slightest criticism, Donald goes on autopilot into his defense mechanisms. He also uses the tactic of repeating catch- phrases multiple times during a statement. Thus, he attempts to control the conversation while thinking about his next utterance. Note the 10 D’s the next time you’re stuck listening to Donald. You also might reference “The Art of War” (Sun Tzu, 5th century B.C.) to better under- stand the cognitions of a megalomaniac. — Jon James, A letter to editor
