If you almost voted for Trump just bc he sounded coherent then you dont base your politics off of your values. Hell, that doesnt even sound like you base your values off of your politics. Thats just lizard brain. If someone sounds confident, sounds believable, comes off strong, and like he has the answers the lizard brain is more likely to follow that.

@@roddyboethius1722 There's not even any correlation between "eating a dog" and how his voice sounds. The brain worm had to come from eating RAW flesh (certainly not BBQ'd) or much more likely, contaminated water. Considering so much of his work was about clean water issues, logic will tell you that's very likely how that happened. This is all just a deflection because people don't know how to do their own research or think beyond "shocking" stories. I'm much more concerned about how he can run the country.

I put that photo into the newest ChatGPT model and it identified it as a goat, possibly a lamb. I then asked it if it is possible that it is a dog and it went into many descriptors of why it doesn't think it could be a dog. Not that this means 100% it isn't, but since its deductions are based off the most likely case statistically it shows just how crazy the media is that it starts to run in major news sources when it took me two minutes to identify that with very high probability it isn't a dog. No wonder we doubt everything we read in the news these days.

IF and only IF. People actually listen and pay attention to what Trump does/says, you will be surprised that every chance he got Trump always put out there that Iran has great Persian History and culture , but is hijacked by their radical Gov, that is making them poor. People always seem to overlook the thoughtful and calculated moves Trump brilliantly makes. IRAN (Islamic Republic) is only sustaining power thu fear and suppression. The natural drift the common man has for freedom takes massive effort to continue to suppress. Talking about how WRONG the Islamic Leadership is for the welfare of its own people is the long term answer and best way to de-escalate. The accusation of Trump as a mindless loose canon who will create conflict is not true, nor during his first 4 years NEVER has any evidence for. The objective assessment is the opposite. Biden will mumble and stumble his way into WW3.
