1. How does Trump believe his BS?!

He has an ability to completely ignore reality.

What a sick fuck.

[Lovie777]

2. His cult will believe him....,

[dcmfox]

3. God Complex

Leave kids 1 million and they live a nice life

Leave them 500 million, and you create a monster

[FakeNoose]

20. Some kids are just born monsters, even if you leave them nothing at all

[USS_Dauntless]

14. Simple.

He's a malignant narcissist in addition to being the human embodiment of E. Coli, Salmonella and C. Diff.

[Jack Valentino]

19. He knows better, he's just a pathological liar, leading a party/criminal organization

which has become a party/criminal organization of pathological liars, per his example...


Back in the 1990s, I taught my young step-children that "all Republicans are LIARS"---
it is even more true today!

[Hornedfrog2000]

21. He literally knows if he repeats it enough

His pedophile supporting base will believe it

4. 'Trump's 'Human Printer' Is Somehow Weirder Than You Thought'

"Do you remember Natalie Harp, Donald Trump’s 'human printer'? The New York Times previously reported that Harp is the incredibly devoted (some might say unsettlingly obsessed) Trump aide whose job is to print out flattering articles about Trump and deliver them to him in a Lululemon bag. Would you believe me if I said that her whole deal is even weirder?"

Apparently, Natalie's still providing Trump the sort of flattering fake news he requires.

5. Eisenhower used troops in cities too.

To desegregate public schools.

[EdmondDantes_]

6. And both were in the military

One the actual military and the other military school, but close enough.

[ShazzieB]

15. Yeah, close enough. 😜

One was a 5 star general and Supreme Commander of the Allied Expeditionary Force in Europe who orchestrated the D-Day landings at Normandy.

And the other one was a pretend toy soldier at a military academy that was a glorified reform school for spoiled rich boys.

Nope, not much difference there at all!

[rsdsharp]

7. Poppy Bush was over 90% right after the Gulf War.

He still lost based on the economy.

[spooky3]

9. And his boy had high approval ratings immediately after Iraq

Was invaded but his ratings plummeted from there.

[Wiz Imp]

24. W's approval peaked immediately after 9/11 then trended downward through the rest of his Presidency with a little spike

when Iraq was invaded

[ShazzieB]

16. Not keeping his "no new taxes" promise didn't help Poppy either.

Remember this?

[Xavier Breath]

8. One fought the Axis powers and one fought VD and fair housing.

[Deuxcents]

10. Pathetic little man

[aggiesal]

11. Can anyone link the poll Mierda47 is referring to? ...

I'm betting it doesn't exist.

[Wiz Imp]

13. He's either making it up, or repeating a lie told to him by one of his sycophants.

No such polling exists.

[Raven123]

17. Probably a poll of the voices in his head

[Wiz Imp]

12. Peak Approval Rating (from Gallup) for each President starting with Harry Truman

Trump is the only President NEVER to hit 50%

George W. Bush 90%
George H.W. Bush 89%
Harry Truman 87%
John Kennedy 83%
Dwight Eisenhower 79%
Lyndon Johnson 79%
Jimmy Carter 75%
Bill Clinton 73%
Gerald Ford 71%
Barack Obama^ 69%
Ronald Reagan 68%
Richard Nixon 67%
Joe Biden 57%
Donald Trump 49%

[rickyhall]

18. I don't trust any of those numbers, especially the Bushes. And I was there for all but Truman.

[Wiz Imp]

23. The numbers are accurate per Gallup polls

Keep in mind, the peak could last for a single day. W. Bush spiked immediately after 9/11 and then immediately started falling and showed a downward trend through the rest of his Presidency.

See graphs here. https://news.gallup.com/poll/116677/presidential-approval-ratings-gallup-historical-statistics-trends.aspx

And here is the low point of approval for each President.

John Kennedy 56%
Dwight Eisenhower 48%
Barack Obama^ 38%
Gerald Ford 37%
Bill Clinton 37%
Joe Biden 36%
Lyndon Johnson 35%
Ronald Reagan 35%
Donald Trump 34%
George H.W. Bush 29%
Jimmy Carter 28%
George W. Bush 25%
Richard Nixon 24%
Harry Truman 22%

[DFW]

22. Is it really necessary that we hear his fat-to-muscle ratio publicized?

I don't care HOW high it is.
