Narcissists:
Unrealistic sense of superiority
Cannot accept when reality doesn’t match their delusions of grandeur; responds with denial, projection, gaslighting, and/or blame-shifting
Carry a profound sense of entitlement, believing that rules and laws don’t apply to them
@mehdirhasan He has no regard for rules or laws…they are not a consideration for him. His admin & Republicans in Congress all now recognize that their voters do not care - they won’t even believe the obvious - so they enable it. Companies/foreign govts have figured out how to take advantage
@MisterCommodity I’m sure it has nothing to do with the monopolies US sports teams are granted by Congress and the cartel setup of those leagues, rather than the free market system Europe uses
@ExtraChrisB_ In the SEA/ATL SBs. Brady didn’t play well for 3 QTRs but was lights out in the 4th against defenses on the field for 97(!) plays…& the only story from those games was ‘Brady’s awesome’
People just aren’t that smart; they can’t even notice obvious stuff (no shade to TB12, btw)
@SenBeauClaghorn@HQNewsNow What actually has happened is we have a President who bc of his mental disorder has no regard for the law, so he engages in open corruption - w/out even trying to hide it - and yet despite that, his cult members…can’t tell? Don’t care? think it’s good? Who the fuck knows
@chi42748@David_Mauricioo I really thought you dipshits finally abandoned this stupidity once someone explained to you the difference between $400K and $3Billion, but alas, I continue to underestimate your dipshittery
All you need to know about Dr. Fauci is that...
His boss lied to the American people about Covid being airborne.
His boss politicized the wearing of masks, which could have helped save lives and protected the most vulnerable.
His boss nearly died of Covid himself, but got special medical treatment the public didn't have access to.
He then politicized the vaccine he helped expedite (his one singular accomplishment as "president") - then sowed distrust in Americans about the vaccine.
Dr. Fauci remained steadfast in trying to save lives during all of that.
Then Trump, and chintzy Republican Senators like Rand Paul tried to scapegoat him for it.
Unforgivable.
@JoshEakle It’s seem clear the intention was to limit Pres to 2 terms…so just say that. It’s just maddening that the people who wrote it were so bad at it, it didn’t occur to just make it airtight. Just literally say “serve” instead of “elected to” to..nip shit like this in the bud
@JoshEakle I gotta be honest, I don’t think it’s airtight. 22nd says no one can be “elected” to the office of Pres more than twice. Taken literally, that doesn’t prohibit ascending from VP (or other in line of succ)
12th says no person “ineligible” not “ineligible to be elected” to Pres
@CalltoActivism The things this man is incapable of doing, like “controlling himself long enough to read a eulogy” are light years behind what any normal human being is capable of…it is astounding that people think he’s competent in any way, even knowing they just support him bc of the racism
@HumptyDrumpf@svdate Trump called Covid a hoax; MAGA internalized it. They then hated Fauci for leading a shutdown over a hoax & have been looking for any way to “get him” since
The fact this relies on believing the opposite of it being a hoax isn’t any internal logic issue for them (nothing is)
@TPCarney Sorry, what’s the purpose of the SPR? Isn’t it to lessen the impact of sudden fuel shortages? Isn’t that what he used it for? Weren’t all you complaining about gas prices and blaming him…he did that, & you blamed him for that? Do you have any shame?
All rhetorical questions
