He recently upgraded one of his personal choppers to a Sikorsky S-76, the manufacturer's top-of-the-line for private aviation." Such a fleet depends on a whole lot of science to build.

To say that he has dismissed science is ridiculous. He may have agreed with some science as opposed to other science. Scientists are always disagreeing with each other.

What has he dismissed simply because it was science?


and will dismiss anything and anyone who might get in the way of his possible re-election. To even question him is a sign of not being loyal, in his mind.

This is another sweeping generalization. But one that has an intrinsic logic. Very few politicians would not dismiss something or someone that stood in his way of possible reelection.

To even question him is a sign of not being loyal, in his mind.


This is another notion about him that is repeated as if always being completely true. Others who have worked for him say that he bounces off of opposition. That he will pit staff members with opposing ideas against each other in order to bring out the best of both sides. That his loyalty is to success. And that his persona, ego, is characterized by the drive to succeed. And he expects his staff to have the same loyalty to success. Ideas he believes will lead to failure are not suffered. It's not directly and only about loyalty to himself, but to the success of a project. Obviously, that success will accrue to him, and, as well to his whole team.

detbuch, why don't you post a video when you go get your injection of his hydroxychloroquin Then we'll talk.

If I wasn't pre-disposed to atrial fibrillation, and I wanted to create some immunity to the Cytokine Storm that can be caused by Covid, I would ask the doctor to prescribe me the hydroxi cocktail.

Trump's endorsement of it is not a dismissal of science. The Science of it re the virus has not definitively been determined. Many doctors recommend and prescribe it to patients. South Korea and Taiwan, the supposedly two most successful countries against the virus use the hydroxi cocktail in their protocol.

Hydroxi's greatest enemy re the virus was Trump's endorsement.
Once that happened, it had to be demonized by anti-Trumpers.


Look, I am far far from anything close to being a lefty or Democrat. And I don't have much hope for a Biden led administration bringing us much closer to center, nor a stronger presence worldwide. But this guy... He is nuts. He has to go!
And I don't enjoy defending Trump. I would rather be talking about more important politics. And what do you mean by "he is nuts"? Do you mean clinically insane. That's ridiculous. There has been no actual psychological test on Trump to determine that.

If you mean something vague like goofy, unpredictable, etc., he doesn't seem any goofier than the current leading Democrats. And anti-Trumpers like to say he's unpredictable, yet like to predict what he'll say or do or what harm he'll cause, or he has no plan but he has a strategy.

A lot of stuff is just said about Trump. Most of it political rhetoric. And intended to paint him as the undefinable "nuts" you mentioned.

But, as I've said over and over, it's not about Trump for me. We are wasting precious time talking about the wrong thing. I am far more concerned about the nutty, destructive, Progressivism that you will have to vote for in order for this Trump nut that you say "has to go."
