August 2, 201610 yr These articles and quite honestly this discussion has led a number of sheep down the path.... If you have the inability to decipher what the media is pushing as their next "chip" in this game then it is going to be a difficult 12 upcoming weeks. Donald Trump is not mentally ill. He is direct. He is non-PC. The majority of the things that he has "said" are modified media versions of what he actually said, taken out of context. Can some of the things be considered offensive, I'm sure for some people they can be. Has he spoken the truth that it is obviously clear the majority are ready to hear...by current polling, yes he has. What is more concerning is that there are posters on this thread that propose he has a mental health condition / disorder / diagnosis.....I'm most concerned about the people surrounding them and how they may fare when they begin to speak truth. If you look at current polling, the majority do not want to hear what he has to say....Just saying.
August 2, 201610 yr If you look at current polling, the majority do not want to hear what he has to say....Just saying. Let me be more clear. Those that are not in favor of a continuation of current policy, or allowing more Americans to die, are in favor of what Trump has to say....as compared to those who were interested in the 16 other potential candidates. I believe I covered the rest in the earlier portion of the post related to what "the media is pushing".....

Just play back the actual spoken words and sit back -- like the other day when he said he wanted to take punch out a few more of his critics.
August 2, 201610 yr So have televangelist , telegrams and telefacsimiles . how long something has been around has zero basis for its usefulness . Telepsychiatry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Yep. Sounds useless to me. To deny the utility of telemedicine is to ignore the state of modern medicine. Heck, I was setting up videoconferencing along these lines over a decade ago.

August 2, 201610 yr For those that would like BGP to be a better place for political discussion (and I agree), why not make it so ourselves? How about we do more than sling shade at the other side or hate on each other? If a topic comes up, why do we resort to simply bashing the other side rather discussing it on its own merit?

I believe that this year is especially volatile due to the quality of the candidates on either side. When someone brings up a negative point regarding Hillary or Trump, these are typically indefensible. The only option at that point is to retaliate with negativity.
August 2, 201610 yr I couldnt help but poke fun at this topic . As far as merit goes this topic has none . For users to insinuate they are far , FAR , like way smarter than Trump is beyond the pale . I've stated numerous times the guy's a loudmouth and has little ability to hold his tongue , but to suggest the guy is mentality ill from TV interviews ?

There are few absolutes in this world, but the majority of slinging, from both sides, are generally the result of absolute thinking. Neither are all bad, most candidates have at least some redeeming qualities, some candidates are actually more evil than good, other candidates are just not your traditional politicians. I tend to like the non-politician style much better than the thieves, liars, crooks and lifetime politicians from both sides. I am in favor of throwing them all out and not letting anyone back unless they are interested in doing the job at minimum plus a minor expense account to cover meals and reasonable lodging. Maybe that mentality gets us something besides dead Americans and hurt feelings over ancestry.....

Unfortunately, it's a lost cause IMO. Timeouts haven't worked for many, a complete shutdown hasn't worked.
August 2, 201610 yr Its fine the way it is .. my only complaints can't be spoken ( parts of rule 12 lol ) . Its like that Harry Potter thing " He who has no name "

Legitimate threads would help. Ones like this do not further actual debate. None of the so called psychologists or psychiatrists articles that are linked to sat down and evaluated Mr. Trump. All they did was watch X number or hours of him. It's a bogus evaluation. It's simply their opinion, like yours or mine.
