Trump’s mental decline is undeniable — so what now?​

“Confabulation.” It’s a word you are going to be hearing a lot in the coming months.

President Trump has always been willing to mislead people when it was to his advantage. Even his supporters recognize this. Hence the famous admonition to “take Trump seriously, not literally.”

But what Trump is doing now is something different. Confabulation is sometimes called “honest lying,” because the person doing it genuinely believes what he’s saying, even if it is obviously and patently false. A person confabulates when they are telling completely invented stories that don’t provide them any particular tangible benefit. In other words, it’s not like lying to try and get out of a speeding ticket."

I'm not sure anyone would argue that Pol Pot wasn't the most significant Cambodian leader in history. The same for Quadafi, Idi Amin, Pinochet, Peron, Mao, Stalin, etc in their countries. Influential does not equate to good.

The 14th of June, 1946 is the birthday of a boy born in the Jamaica district of Queens, NYC. In 1995, his car has a flat tire. A black man walking by notices it's owner is wearing a suit. So he fixes the flat. "How can I repay you?" Queens boy asks. "My wife has always wanted some flowers" A few days later, the black man's wife gets a beautiful bouquet of flowers with a note saying, "Thanks for helping me. By the way,....the mortgage on your house is paid off."

A USMC Sargent spends 7 months in a Mexican prison for a minor charge. He is beaten. The man from Queens sends him a check for $25,000 "To get you started."

A black bus driver saves a suicidal girl from jumping off a bridge. Our Queens man sends him a check for $10,000.

A rabbi's critically ill son needs to get from NCY the California for specialty care. No airlines will fly him. The generous man pays for a private flight for the child.

This kind man from Queens commits many other "quiet acts of random kindness." A wise man once said "If a man's heart is good,....Nothing else matters. And if a man's heart is bad,....Nothing else matters." Who is this kind man?...….Trump. Donald J. Trump,....a man with a good heart.

This is not the inflation report numb nuts. Must be a sad life to sit around hoping for your own nation to be unsuccessful.
I never have and never will root for America to fail. I have and will continue to speak out when we need to do better, no matter who’s in charge. And I didn’t try to peddle this as “the inflation report” but simply shared these canary-in-the-coal-mine numbers with the full story.

Ok... let's see you celebrate the good news when it comes out too then.
