I B Freeman

It is a short list.

The fact that the people he hired and who worked with him are against him now should mean something.

I know it easy during the commerical breaks of the wrestling matches to pound a few keys and insult those opposed to Trump. That is fun I suppose.

Do you ever think "there are a lot of smart people that worked with Trump that no longer support him, maybe I should pay attention."?

What are you whining about?? Such a snowflake.

Point to the honest discussion in this thread.

Dish may be ok. They have invested in a LOT of broadcast spectrum and they may end up a wholesale cellular company or something like that. They may not have a retail brand in 10 years.

Of course fairly in your mind is acquitting Trump.

I am not sure of the DC case but from what I read on the Miami case I don't see how he avoids a conviction on at least some of the charges. His ego got his arse in trouble there.

The NY civil case is clearly BS to me.

The Atlanta case I am not sure of.

We do not have such people choosing our leaders. We have billionaires and millionaires making endorsements and contributing money. We have one with close ties to Goldman Sachs running for President.

She is an idiot.

I don't even try to pay attention to what she says on any issue. She has never taken a rational position on political issues.

Nancy Pelosi could have had him in the palm of her hand if she only said something nice about him. If on national tv she had said something superficial like "Trump is so handsome" he would have signed every bill she wanted to send to the White House.


IMHO,he definitely has Narcissistic Personality Disorder.

How to identify signs of narcissistic personality disorder.
What is narcissistic personality disorder?

Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is a mental health condition that affects how you view yourself and relate to others. Having NPD means you have an excessive need to impress others or feel important. That need can be strong enough to drive harmful behaviors, negatively affecting you and those around you.

NPD gets its name from Narcissus, a hunter from Greek mythology. According to the myth, Narcissus was so obsessed with his own beauty that he couldn’t stop looking at his reflection in a pool of water. He did nothing else but stare at his reflection until he died.

While people commonly connect the term “narcissism” to physical appearance — just like in the myth — NPD isn’t just about how you look. It can also involve other traits or abilities you have, such as intelligence, charisma, artistic skill, athletic ability, wealth, power, success and more.

How common is narcissistic personality disorder?

Experts aren’t sure how common NPD is. According to research data, between 0.5% and 5% of people in the U.S. may have it. Between 50% and 75% of cases affect men and people assigned male at birth (AMAB).

However, many people hide narcissistic beliefs or behaviors (informally known as “covert narcissism”). Because of that, it’s hard to estimate how many people truly have NPD.

Symptoms and Causes
Narcissistic personality disorder affects how you think about yourself and relate to others. It can weaken existing relationships and block formation of new ones.
Narcissistic personality disorder isn’t just about physical appearance. People with this disorder tend to put their desires, goals and needs first without regard to how their actions might affect others.
What are the symptoms of narcissistic personality disorder?

The symptoms of NPD all revolve around thoughts, feelings and actions. The American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fifth edition text revision (also known as the “DSM-5-TR™” or just “DSM-5®”) has a list of nine criteria. To others, the symptoms that fall under the criteria may look like the following:

1. Grandiose sense of self-importance.

Overestimating their capabilities or holding themselves to unreasonably high standards.
Bragging or exaggerating their achievements.
2. Frequent fantasies about having or deserving:

Success.
Power.
Intelligence.
Beauty.
Love.
Self-fulfillment.

3. Belief in superiority.

Thinking they’re special or unique.
Believing they should associate only with those they see as worthy.

4. Need for admiration.

Fragile self-esteem.
Frequent self-doubt, self-criticism or emptiness.
Preoccupation with knowing what others think of them.
Fishing for compliments.

5. Entitlement.

Inflated sense of self-worth.
Expecting favorable treatment (to an unreasonable degree).
Anger when people don’t cater to or appease them.

6. Willingness to exploit others.

Consciously or unconsciously using others.
Forming friendships or relationships with people who boost their self-esteem or status.
Deliberately taking advantage of others for selfish reasons.
7. Lack of empathy.

Saying things that might hurt others.
Seeing the feelings, needs or desires of others as a sign of weakness.
Not returning kindness or interest that others show.
8. Frequent envy.

Feeling envious of others, especially when others are successful.
Expecting envy from others.
Belittling or diminishing the achievements of others.
9. Arrogance.

Patronizing behavior.
Behaving in a way that’s snobby or disdainful.
Talking down or acting condescendingly.
People with NPD may also show other behaviors related to the nine criteria, but still different, such as:

Fear of or avoiding vulnerability.
Withdrawing from others to hide feeling vulnerable.
Perfectionism (with or without a fear of failure).
Hypersensitivity to criticism, rejection or failure.
Experiencing severe depression related to rejection or failure.
Reacting with anger (or even rage) when they feel criticized or rejected.
Faking humility to hide their feelings or protect their sense of self-importance.
Avoiding situations where failure is possible or likely, which can limit achievements.

Wrong. It would be a necessary precursor to court. If either side disagrees with rulings of the arbitrators they may take it to court. Loser pays.

Most civil matters are already settled out of court. Today plaintiff lawyers inflate claims to collect contingency fees. I want a plaintiff to have good, well paid attorneys regardless of the size of his claim. If a defendant is stupid enough to fight a good $1000 claim until the legal fees are $100k then he will have to pay.

By the same token no mass tort plaintiff lawyer looking for dumb jurors to make rulings based on science should be able to bring such cases without some financial risk of his own.

Any American attempting to disparage the leadership and significance of Churchill is a babbling idiot.
