Dr. Jordan Peterson was commenting on Trump's high intelligence (IQ). He noted how few people reach the pinnacle of a profession, and President Trump did that in one of the toughest places - New York real estate. Then he did it again in a completely different field - television. Then he did it a 3rd time, first candidate to win the WH as an Outsider.
Dr. Peterson also commented on Trump's ability to endure unbelievable amounts of stress, really remarkable. And he had the Democrat FBI / DOJ after him, fabricating a dossier, fraudulent FISA warrants and CIA honeypots trying to dirty up low level aides. All supported by the MSM and hi tech censorship.

It's interesting that those with TDS still obsess over him, partly bc Biden is the embodiment of Weekend at Bernies.
I commented in another thread about the lack of correlation between intelligence and wealth. I repeat that sentiment here. Graduating from Wharton...now maybe tells us something about his intelligence.movielover said:

From the tRump University seminar on perfecting the art of creative rebuttal.
Actually, in a presidential debate, this was quite a creative and new form of debate. Can you remember any candidate taking this approach?
No, but most of us perfected it in the playground by 10 or 11 years old, you know, the age where tRump's intellectual and emotional development hit an impenetrable wall.

Yes. And yet it worked. He's really an evil genius realizing that on the whole our country is getting dumber.
It's not a strategy where he is acting a certain way to gain popularity. It's just how he is and dumb people lap it up.
Half the country is experiencing increasing levels of cognitive dissonance as they are slowly realizing they're being lied to by the government and media.82gradDLSdad said:

Instead of securing the border, President Joe Biden is planning on handing out photo ID cards to illegal immigrants before releasing them into the United States.movielover said:— James Woods (@RealJamesWoods) September 22, 2023
Are you referring to the subsequent war on terror after 9/11 or the events of 9/11 themselves?dimitrig said:Yes, the half of the country that lapped it up when it was about Vietnam or 9/11. Those people are a little slow on the uptake. They aren't suddenly into something. The other half of the country has known this for decades now.BearHunter said:Half the country is experiencing increasing levels of cognitive dissonance as they are slowly realizing they're being lied to by the government and media.82gradDLSdad said:

Prosecutors allege Democrat Sen. Bob Menendez accepted "cash, gold, home mortgage payments, jobs, cars, and other things of value" in exchange for "using his power and influence to protect and enrich businessmen and to benefit the government of Egypt."

Dems should cut Menendez loose. You can get a much better candidate out of New Jersey.

"They are always doing what they accuse others of. And what the Biden crime family did was worse."
* Tony Schwartz , who wrote The Art of the Deal, has been using the term tRump Crime Family for years. tRump admired it and added it to his "No puppet, you're the puppet" rebuttal playbook.
Michael Cohen said years back that tRump always engages in conduct he accuses others of, but worse. Another phrase admired and co opted.
On 2/14/14, Russian oligarch Yelena Baturina wired $3.5M to a shell company associated with Hunter Biden & Devon Archer. About $1M was transferred to Archer & the remainder was used to initially fund a new company account, which Archer & Biden used to receive other foreign wires. pic.twitter.com/1bOPKR6CrY

I am confident that unlike the GOP with their criminals, not a single democrat will defend this behavior. There won't be "free bob menendez" t shirts. There won't be rallies. No one will go on TV saying that he was framed by the deep state.

You can't hold Republicans to our standards because they wouldn't have anyone to vote for…..oh, I forgot, they can still vote for people in prison.

More ideological tripe. Both sides are feeding at the trough. This is what frightened the Establishment about President Trump. Resetting trade deals to benefit America, not the Senate members. No new wars. The threat to cut 10% of the Federal workforce. Upsetting the Texas (Bush?) Oil Mafia? Ousting Hillary and Jeb Bush.
Haloski said:
You have to be absolutely stupid to think Trump wasn't feeding at the trough. He was just feeding at a slightly different trough. You're operating out of the exact same template as somebody that thinks only Trump is grifting, there's just slightly different information penciled in. You are delusional if you think Trump isn't like the rest of them in spirit.

Senator Bob Menendez needed to set up shell companies like the Biden crime family that would take years to unravel.

Refresh my recollection again, what was the subject matter of the 102 meetings between tRump surrogates and Russians (some in the intelligence community) in the run up to the 2016 Election?
" "I don't think there's any question that Russians intruded into hacked into the systems, they released information," Durham said. "And that was helpful to the Trump campaign, right?" Schiff asked. After trying to deflect the question, Durham agreed the Russians had been helpful to the Trump campaign."

" Myth: Mueller found "no collusion."
Response: Mueller spent almost 200 pages describing "numerous links between the Russian government and the Trump Campaign." He found that "a Russian entity carried out a social media campaign that favored presidential candidate Donald J. Trump and disparaged presidential candidate Hillary Clinton." He also found that "a Russian intelligence service conducted computer-intrusion operations" against the Clinton campaign and then released stolen documents.
While Mueller was unable to establish a conspiracy between members of the Trump campaign and the Russians involved in this activity, he made it clear that "[a] statement that the investigation did not establish particular facts does not mean there was no evidence of those facts." In fact, Mueller also wrote that the "investigation established that the Russian government perceived it would benefit from a Trump presidency and worked to secure that outcome, and that the Campaign expected it would benefit electorally from information stolen and released through Russian efforts."
…. Mueller found other contacts with Russia, such as the sharing of polling data about Midwestern states where Trump later won upset victories, conversations with the Russian ambassador to influence Russia's response to sanctions imposed by the U.S. government in response to election interference, and communications with Wikileaks after it had received emails stolen by Russia. While none of these acts amounted to the crime of conspiracy, all could be described as "collusion."
