Hellery Vs Donald POLL

She aint all that, there are much better balloon knots in the world for him to destroy, he's was selling himself short.

 

Scott Adams blog:

Here’s a little thought experiment for you:

If a friend said he could see a pink elephant in the room, standing right in front of you, but you don’t see it, which one of you is hallucinating?

Answer: The one who sees the pink elephant is hallucinating.

Let’s try another one.

If a friend tells you that you were both abducted by aliens last night but for some reason only he remembers it, which one of you hallucinated?

Answer: The one who saw the aliens is hallucinating.

Now let’s add some participants and try another one.

If a crowd of people are pointing to a stain on the wall, and telling you it is talking to them, with a message from God, and you don’t see anything but a stain, who is hallucinating? Is it the majority who see the stain talking or the one person who does not?

Answer: The people who see the stain talking are experiencing a group hallucination, which is more common than you think.

In nearly every scenario you can imagine, the person experiencing an unlikely addition to their reality is the one hallucinating. If all observers see the same addition to their reality, it might be real. But if even one participant can’t see the phenomenon – no matter how many can – it is almost certainly not real.

Here I pause to remind new readers of this blog that I’m a trained hypnotist and a student of persuasion in all its forms. I’ve spent a lifetime trying to learn the tricks for discerning illusion from reality. And I’m here to tell you that if you are afraid that Donald Trump is a racist/sexist clown with a dangerous temperament, you have been brainwashed by the best group of brainwashers in the business right now: Team Clinton. They have cognitive psychologists such as Godzilla advising them. Allegedly.

I remind you that intelligence is not a defense against persuasion. No matter how smart you are, good persuaders can still make you see a pink elephant in a room where there is none (figuratively speaking). And Clinton’s team of persuaders has caused half of the country to see Trump as a racist/sexist Hitler with a dangerous temperament. That’s a pink elephant.

As a public service (and I mean that literally) I have been trying to unhypnotize the country on this matter for the past year. I don’t do this because I prefer Trump’s policies or because I know who would do the best job as president. I do it because our system doesn’t work if you think there is a pink elephant in the room and there is not. That isn’t real choice. That is an illusion of choice.

Trump represents what is likely to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to bring real change to a government that is bloated and self-serving. Reasonable people can disagree on policies and priorities. But Trump is the bigger agent for change, if that’s what you think the country needs. I want voters to see that choice for what it is.

And it isn’t a pink elephant.

If you are wondering why a socially liberal and well-educated cartoonist such as myself is not afraid of Trump, it’s because I don’t see the pink elephant. To me, all anti-Trumpers are experiencing a shared illusion.

Pause here.

 

Before you scoff at mass, shared illusions as being unlikely, keep in mind that everyone with a different religion than yours is experiencing exactly that. Mass shared illusions are our most common experience.

Back to my point. As a trained persuader, I can see the “Trump is Hitler” illusion for what it is. Where you might see a mountain of credible evidence to support your illusion, I see nothing but confirmation bias on your part. I have detailed that confirmation bias in other posts.

Remember my rule from above. If you see something unlikely – such as a new Hitler rising in the midst of America – and I see nothing remotely like that – I’m almost certainly right and you’re almost certainly having the illusion. I say that because the person who sees the unlikely addition to reality is the one experiencing the illusion nearly every time. Trump as Hitler-in-America is an addition to reality that only some can see. It is a pink elephant. It is a classic hallucination.

I’m not trying to say I’m smarter than anyone else. I just don’t see the pink elephant. Nor do perhaps 40% of the country who prefer Trump as president. And when that many people don’t see a pink elephant in a room, you can be sure it isn’t there, no matter how many do see it.

If you are a Clinton supporter, you might think Trump supporters see the same pink elephant that you do, and you rationalize that by saying Trump supporters prefer the pink elephant because they want it to stomp all over minorities.

Some Trump supporters are racists. That’s a fact. Racists are in every group. Perhaps they see the pink elephant too. If so, they probably do want that elephant to stomp all over minorities. But in this case, the racists are sharing the same illusion as Clinton supporters, seeing the same pink elephant. The majority of Trump supporters – as far as I can tell – simply don’t see any pink elephant at all. They just want change.

I don’t believe in Santa Claus.

I don’t believe in ghosts.

I don’t believe in a traditional god.

I don’t believe in luck.

And I don’t see Donald Trump as dangerous.

In my elephant-free view of the world, Trump is a guy who uses provocative language (as New Yorkers do) while succeeding across several different fields. And he knows risk-management. You can see that in everything he does.

If you are an anti-Trumper, you might reject my point of view as manipulative or naive. I can’t change your mind with a blog post. But you can change your own mind. Just ask others if they see the addition to reality that you see. If others don’t see the pink elephant in the room, and you do, the elephant isn’t there.

Look for that pattern. Once you see it, you’re awake.

Then vote for whoever has the policies you like.

I can't get over how stupid this guy is.

 

This is where he loses me. Is "Team Clinton" hammering home Trump as a racist (which I don't think he is), absolutely. They are trying to make him seem like Hitler, because he says some politically incorrect crap. I, personally, don't care about any of that and do not think he's genuinely racist (at least from the things he's said).
But I certainly think he's sexist and a clown. Nobody made him say anything. They are words that come out of his mouth. They just make sure it's front page news...
He's a clown because he can't keep his foot out of his mouth and put a coherent argument together ANY time he is confronted. He sounds like a total a$$clown every single time he speaks.

Tonight watch him speak. And imagine he was a democrat that worked under Obama... You would be pointing out, on a daily basis, how fu*king dumb he sounds every time he speaks.

Again, he may be the lesser of 2 evils, but the left aren't tuning him in to a clown. He did that all on his own and now has the orange makeup to complete the outfit.

The video wont embed, but below is exactly what he says in the video. And it's not an isolated case. He sounds like this 100% of the times he gets in front of a mic.That is actually my biggest problem with him.

"Look, having nuclear—my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart—you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I'm one of the smartest people anywhere in the world—it’s true!—but when you're a conservative Republican they try—oh, do they do a number—that’s why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune—you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged—but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me—it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are (nuclear is powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what's going to happen and he was right—who would have thought?), but when you look at what's going on with the four prisoners—now it used to be three, now it’s four—but when it was three and even now, I would have said it's all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don't, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years—but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us."

 

Being a bad speaker doesn't make you a bad leader. I just makes you a bad speaker.

 

Being a good speaker is sometimes part of a job. That is the case for the POTUS

 

BINGO!

DPSUP shoots & scores!

 

So hildebeast spinning her lies & total crapola is ok with you because she's 'a good speaker'.....?

This item should be abandoneeered, bro, you're already tripping & falling over your own shoelaces on this attempt. Your issues with The Don's sexism hold more water than this.

 

It's part of the job, but it's not the job itself. As long as he has the ability to communicate his message and get the desired end result then that's really all that matters.

Lemme me ask you this.... If he has a speech impediment, would you hold that against him? What if he had a lisp, or perhaps he can't pronounce the letter "r" correctly. Does that disqualify him from being POTUS? Seems like discrimination to me.

 

On the flip side Obama is a great speaker but....

I think temperament is more of the issue for Trump IMO. I think he does have a large IQ. But, I see what you mean, especially when you read his words. He throws in a the little side bits that detract from "being presidential"

 

He's definitely not polished and isn't your typical smooth talking Politician, but I think that's what people are sick of so he relates to a lot of folks.

 

Hahaha... Come on dude. We are not talking about a speech impediment. We are talking about a person who's job it is to speak to and on behalf of the country, but cannot convey a clear message.

Lemme ask you this... Should a boxer who's never trained MMA be allowed to fight in the UFC? He may have a great punch, but that's it... No, of course not. You need to be well rounded in all facets of fighting to get to that level.

Same with the president. You can't just be a good business guy.
To be a good leader you need to have a good message AND be able to convey that message to the world.

 

Who are you kidding?? The last 8 years we have a had a moron come up to the microphone and fart verbal diarrhea incessantly. We do not need to be lectured to by an idiot.

 

I knew you'd get a good laugh on that one. I was just messing around. No I know what you're saying but I think you're over-exaggerating his communication skills, or lack thereof. I have no problems understanding what he's saying, and apparently millions of others seem to get what he's saying too, so obviously he speaks well enough to be understood.

Having said that, I think with Donald, you have the guy you see on stage and in front of a camera, and then I think you have a very different guy when cameras are off and he's not on stage at the center of attention. I believe he's a very down-to-earth guy who when he sits down one-on-one with people he has productive dialog. Look, he's using his fame and personality to win this thing. But once the election is over, he can drop the "act" so to speak and just get to work.

 

Jeez....Trump runs an organization that's profitable & is worth billions.....he employs thousands of people...you think that happens without leadership?

Obama & Clinton run organizations that have no accountability, are trillions in debt & don't have any sort of metrics to measure employee performance, aka jobs for life.....but you're saying they're qualified to be president because you like the sound of their voice.

And as far as convey the message to the world....? This is laughable. What message have Obama and Clinton conveyed to the world in the past, oh, 15 years? It starts with 'I' ......incompetence.

But they sure have purdy moufs

 

They like their morons to speak smooth and articulate while communicating their piss poor policies.

 

Evan McMullin .........google him............could be the spoiler
