I hear you say :"Kirbs what do you mean by that?"

Well, let me tell you!

Getting Trumped in the way I mean it consists out of the following but is not limited to :

Issue number one fake news, getting baited or entering a discussion based on that.

Issue number two faulty argumentation, this thing is even more sneaky, as it can make wrong point look good.

Issue number three misdirection, quite simply mention another wrong to get your own point validated.

What can you do to not get tricked? Don't resort to nonsense and think logically.

Peace

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

With Covfefe, that would be Moot (with gators in it). The Donald says he is a poor typer, not an unstable idiot. But, the O and A on a keyboard are on the opposite sides.

Isn't this a political thread? Curious why it is here. Anyhow, carry on.

With the Donald, I keep bringing up Covfefe for stability reasons. One would thing, if you are the president of the United States, you would be able to have someone proof your tweets before they go out. Apparently, in 8 Dimensional Chess, typing like you don't know how to spell is some sort of meta-tactic to make progressive and liberal opponents look bad.

If people could think logically we wouldn't be in this mess in the first place.

If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.
