TPP: Trump tells Kudlow to look into joining

It is ok to lie, a good person can lie in order to deceive dishonest people.

It's sort of like using violence in self-defense.

I keep posting this video, for anybody who wants to understand.



Politics is war by other means, Trump is a spy, the only question is which side does he really work for.

It is a dangerous game he is playing because we have no way to be sure of him and therefore he risks losing or never gaining our support, he still doesn't have mine.
 
Sincere, non-confrontational question to [MENTION=10908]dannno[/MENTION] and [MENTION=37482]thoughtomator[/MENTION]. Would you characterize him as a liar/dishonest, or would you use some other verbiage to describe how he messages?

I'd describe him as a benevolent manipulator. He's playing the game same as others do, but he's playing for Team American citizens, not Team Deep State.

It's a New York thing. Look up Mayor Fiorella LaGuardia for the archetype that Trump is playing out. Much of the shape of New York today is a direct result of his mayorality.

I think people with a low IQ (most people including Ben Sasse), have no idea how to understand or relate to a person with high IQ (Trump). Ben Sasse "a staunch free trader" loves the TPP.... this tells me all I need to know about Ben Sasse, he is low IQ trash and he is filtering what he interpreted from the president, and what he interpreted could be seriously flawed. I think the "sources" that are most prevalent in the media are filtering the president in a flawed dishonest way. Whenever I hear the president directly from his own mouth, I can understand him pretty well and what he is trying to accomplish. I suspect what actually happened here is Trump asked his top economic advisors to look into trade deals with these countries in order to weaken china. That doesn't mean joining the old TPP agreement that would have been an absolute disaster, but that's the take away Ben Sasse was left with because "he loves the TPP".

It's an execution of the maxim "it is immoral to deal morally with an amoral entity".

What the Left and the Deep State both share is that they are both amoral entities. Nothing is too far for either one to achieve an end.
 
Yup, Danno, they can be counted on to fall for the bait every time can't they? Only by being at least somewhat sympathetic to him and understanding the context in which he acts, can one reasonbly predict which statements are bankable and which are discardable.

Ironically, those who love him put the least trust in his word. What can you do when the brand you love is Trump?

-You have to abandon the free market principles in order to save the free market system.
You're only saying that because you don't even know how to win a trade war, but thats okay China won the trade war a long time ago. So we have to abandon the trade war and to do that you have to win a trade war and only then we can have free trade, and to win free trade we need to get the best trade deal possible.

It's an evolved level of self-awareness. I absolutely love seeing Trump fuck over all sorts of bad actors who really really deserve it, using their own tools against them.

It's as I said in the beginning before Trump Derangement took hold here. Trump is the hammer with which we are smashing our enemies.

Assuming that you fall within our definition of "our" which is American citizens, the people the government has the duty to serve in the first place.

This is what the path out of this mess looks like. It doesn't have to come in the form you expected too, to be a good thing.

LOL! Stupid government wanted to create a trillion dollar cash grab globalist trade deal boondoggle, Trump is too smart for them though, he will make the stupid trade deal even bigger. :rolleyes:

Who's he shit on?

Who's been smashed?

Did you expect this form, or did Gawd reveal it to you in a fever dream?

You should of seen it when he bombed Syria a year ago, he tricked them into giving him positive news coverage by using their own ideas against them. AHAHAHAHAHA:o

Yeah, I did expect this form.

Then again I'm from New York and I know who Fiorella LaGuardia is and what he did.

The Deep State is the new Tammany Hall.
 
I'll $#@! post twice as much as you and that will get rid of all the $#@! post.

I'll mute you from my feed, and I'll never deal with you in any way again, and you can enjoy low quality shitposting at a wall of ignore.

Forever.

muhahahaha

No answers to the important questions. Even the Trumphumpers know that their fan fiction is too stupid to share except among themselves.
 
Just a quick thank you for answering my question, [MENTION=10908]dannno[/MENTION] and [MENTION=37482]thoughtomator[/MENTION].

I certainly don't feel a need to tell the truth to someone evil. I agree that if Tweets are meant for the Deep State, political globalists, neo-cons, etc. then they shouldn't be held to normal standards of honesty between honorable men.

For myself, living in close proximity to someone with a nearly identical personality to trump's, I think it's equal parts 1. what he's thinking at the moment; 2. signaling; and 3. just echoing cherry-picked sentiments of the people he's surrounding himself with at the time. I don't think he's on any "path," except in the sense that the path is constantly changing as his own intentions and convictions constantly change with his social environment.

I've also come to the conclusion he doesn't really have any desire for American greatness or anything like that. But he does want to stamp his name on something remarkable. And I think he's a person who's a risk-taker and will gamble everything if he thinks he can hold it up to naysayers later.
