Personality defines a persons responses to problems. For example, a positive person sees the pluses and keys on them and the negative person sees negatives and keys on them.
In addition, a narcissist personality (which Trump is), means that when you do a mistake (which every person in the world does), you do not see it or admit to it, meaning the mistake will be repeated adnauseum and never be fixed.
Trump has proven to be someone that never learns from his own mistakes, never listens to anyone else, thinks he knows more than anyone (total fallacy) and has proven that his mind is weak and ineffective, given the amount of incompetent mistakes he has made all his life and continues to do so (as his recent statements about Harris are not addressing the issues simply degrading of the Black Woman and losing him votes (not getting him votes).
If you call that intelligent, competent, and knowledgeable, then you are blind-by-choice.
One thing I do believe and it is the reason I never voted in my entire life until 2020 is that no one up to now has been bad or good enough for a vote to be needed by me. If they are bad it will all be over in 4 or 8 years and if they are good, it will all be over in 4 or 8 years. Until Trump, there has been no president (or nominee) that did not have at least some morals, ethics, principles or humanity and just having one of those 4, would prevent that person from doing something permanently bad. Trump has none of those and that means that he can do permanent damage to our country. That is why I voted in 2020 and will vote this year and is why I joined political boards for the first time in my life. I do see Trump as a death (if he gets elected) or as a survival (if he loses) of our nation person.
You can think whatever you want of my statement, but it is what I believe and I have to tell you that I am 79 years old, have an IQ above 130, have had a rough life and I have not only coped with it but been successful, am an avid reader, seek knowledge as my #2 objective in life (love being #1) and have accomplished both, and I am not biased at all. Given that, I do believe I have a clear view of what is happening.
Believe what you want. This is the way I see it.
