      @Greg Benson - except he's not even insulting him because he's not being disrespectful, he's simply stating facts. Trump's manner of speech is in fact forever insulting (because he's so contemptuous), even though he very likely doesn't comprehend how much of it is, like pointed out in the video.
      Oh and more sad is that all the fans at those rallies don't grasp how insulting his words are either. Yes, applaud that man that just inferred we're all too stupid to know anything.

      First off, we don't know if he's a billionaire. We only have his word at that. I seriously doubt that he's a billionaire. Y'all Trump supporters think being a billionaire equates with intelligence. Most cases it does. Not with Trump. Trump has just been good at surrounding himself with smart but unethical people to get to where he is today. He's been selling the lie that he turned a small loan from his father into a multi-billion dollar empire. We now know that it was way more than a million and that he made a lot of money dodging taxes for himself and his father and his children.

    Frederick Trump (born, Freidrich Drumpf) emigrated from his native Germany to avoid taxes and national service in the army. He made a small fortune in a gold rush town as a brothel owner.
    Frederick Trump (Donald's father) never saw active service in World War II. He received federal grants to build affordable homes for returning veterans, and was investigated for misappropriation of funds, most of which ended up in his own pocket. Although no charges were made, he skated so close to the edge of the law that new laws had be made to prevent anyone else doing what he did with the money in future.
    Donald himself of course never served. The nearest he got was playing toy soldier in a military academy, where his neglectful parents sent him after violent and disruptive behaviour (at one point physically attacking his teacher for correcting him), and poor grades, at other schools. At the academy he was briefly promoted to dormitory officer, but later stripped of that title after excessive bullying of other students.
    Trump was deferred from the draft five times during the Vietnam war. Four were for college, and one was for a claim of crippling bone spurs. However, he would later in life brag that, at the same time, he was headhunted by professional sports teams as an athletic prodigy. And by all accounts of his peers at the time, he did very well at competitive sports.
    None of Trump's children have ever served either. Although there is one incident where Donald Junior declared he was going to join the army to get away from his domineering and abusive parents. In response, his father threatened he would be financially cut off and disinherited if he did.
    In 2018, whilst on a Presidential visit to The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier to commemorate the ending of World War I, according to several sources and witnesses, Trump called those who served and sacrificed their lives for their country, "Loser and suckers!"
    At another memorial service at Arlington, Trump accompanied retired General John Kelly to the grave of Kelly's son, who was killed in action in Afghanistan in 2010. According to Kelly, Trump turned to him and asked, bemused, "I don't get it. What's in it for them?"
    For at least three generations not a single member of Trump's entire family have ever served their country in the military.

    6:00 From Vanity Fair:
    For mental-health professionals, Donald Trump is at once easily diagnosed but slightly confounding. “Remarkably narcissistic,” said developmental psychologist Howard Gardner, a professor at Harvard Graduate School of Education. “Textbook narcissistic personality disorder,” echoed clinical psychologist Ben Michaelis. “He’s so classic that I’m archiving video clips of him to use in workshops because there’s no better example of his characteristics,” said clinical psychologist George Simon, who conducts lectures and seminars on manipulative behavior. “Otherwise, I would have had to hire actors and write vignettes. He’s like a dream come true.”

      Casual speech doesn't have to be dumb, so it's not necessarily fair to say that Trump's speech is a sign that America is being dumbed down. That said, Trump has plenty of other qualities (many of which reflected in his speech) which I _do_ think signals a downturn in our societal intelligence. His utter disregard towards accuracy, his joyful dismissal of the artful or complex, his narcissistic ignorance, etc.

What is relatively new is that you now have a president who is a shining example of the results of this dumbing process. W Bush was almost as bad but he had handlers. Trump is too egocentric to even control his own mouth, he refuses to listen to anyone but cable 'news' actors like Limbauh and his ilk.

He isnt worth his stated net worth bc the banks actually own everything and hes not even close to paying any of it off. Back in the day he fraudulently claimed his fathers properties as his own in order to get banks to loan him more than they otherwise would have lent him. Then he used that money to scheme and bankroll all sorts of failing businesses and he associated with a lot of bad characters. His family lineage is actually pretty toxic if you look into it- lots of trauma and abusive parents who were defrauders too. Pretty much the Trumps are just wht trsh with a gucci belt. I used to like trump bc we all wanted an anti politician for president bc everyone was sick of politicians, but trump was not the answer. Time to realize that he was not a fit for office of the US president. The guy is no leader, he's just a clown. And he was ruining america domestically and abroad too. Here he failed to bring people together and intentionally did the opposite, couldnt get along with anyone who wasnt a lackey and was way into cronyism. World leaders didnt like him and he would just talk a lot of BS as he pocketed hundreds of millions in election donations alone, and by riling up his dumb mob base to bully everyone else. I think he was always hating on others bc he wanted to avoid facing his own shortcomings as a leader. To this day he still fails to take responsibility for the insurrection (and even republicans know he is guilty). He really is like an adolescent. And now, hes disgraced himself to the world. The trump name and his legacy is disgraced for all time. Everyone in the world has seen the impeachment trials or will soon enough. Dont feel bad for him at all, hes a sociopath and doesnt give a crap about anything other than his own self interests.

      I don't believe for a second that T is demented mentally (morally, yes). He is very consistent and on point with destroying all that 'Obama, the black president' did and in destroying the entire U.S. He is calculated and plotting. He works tirelessly to hide his wrong doing and to spin them into something good. These are not signs of dementia.
