Trump has 11 security/Intel companies protecting him plus the Secret Service. He actually does "know more than the Generals" because his intel
doesn't go through 8 million Gov't channels before it gets to him.
If you think Trump is "dumb" or "Trump is stupid, he's an idiot" etc...well, he beat a rigged game against a seasoned opponent who cheated, lied and
even killed people to beat him and now he's your President, so who's the Dummy now?
Considering all the external things that were affecting elections...if not done by him or someone he worked with, then he barely had to move a
finger.
He just had to put more wood into the already burning fire, while the fire was actually supported by a gas, by someone else, or multiple external
sources, which were slowly adding more gas into it xD.
Not saying he is completely dumb or what. But I wouldnt be surprised if he in the start actually wanted to get rid of corruption and etc (which would
be great)..., but now he will find out, that it might not be as he thought and will somehow simply adjust to it. ("Oh well, it wasnt as I thought,
lets be a puppet president")
Meaning that it might not be as easy, or some things he wanted to do might have some serious unwanted effects which he might not go into. ( not sure
if he actually cares about effects much, lol )
I dont really see him being good at persuading others, he might be a really stubborn guy...but would that really help that much in persuading
others?
He can say what he wants...hell...in 100 different ways....but the way he arguments around it, seem to me like the only thing he knows to do, when he
presents what he wants to do, is to throw dirt on something opposing the thing he wants.
Instead of rather being more specific on how he wants to do it or things like that...
Just to note, I didnt like both the candidates....but hell...not clinton...especially with all the trash those unknown (or somewhat known) sources of
external affections threw up on her...just, NO...you just dont go candidate for presidency with all this dirt following you. Wow. ( and so accessible
xD ) What a courage...or rather insanity?
I definitely liked how they really struggled finding anything on Trump, and even if they did, it was usually desperate things.
This was really not about the candidates though. But literally only about "change or no change"
What the change will bring, noone knows....not like Trump talked much about the outcomes he sees of the things he wants to do, or how he wants to do
them, or so...(atleast I barely noticed anything like that from him)
Just...
You can clearly see when Trump is just talking what he wants and when he is acting how he was advised by his campaign managers, friends, colleagues,
or whoever he "sometimes" listens to. (which is sometimes much better than just his usual random dirt throwing)
Also...Iam not sure if he didnt just simply adjust to the situation, which was "lets expose clintons and etc" coming from external sources, and he
just played with it, to simply become the president (which could totally make sense looking at his personality)
Which could also be totally advised from his campaign managers.
Which seems to me the most likely.
This is quite why I doubt his ability to persuade. Which also makes me think that thats why Putin (or few others), are so happy about him. Because he
is confident that he will be mopping the floors with him...or atleast, either Trump gets persuaded or he will stay stubborn, instead of trying to work
out solutions/compromises or so...which might lead to conflicts...and it might eventually end up at that war which we allegedly avoided (only delayed)
by not having Hillary.
Guess that will also depend on how well he listens to advisors.
He better listen to people around him (not completely literally of course)
I think that was his plan all along. To be a president, but huge majority of Presidenting will be done by people he chose.
Because lets face it, when he acts as himself...thats absolutely not presidential, and Iam not sure if he has any clue about it or really wants to
have.
Which would mean, that it was his plan all along, to just be the puppet of the ones he chose. Which just tells me, that others will be able to crunch
him too...especially when he cant have his advisors 24/7 with him.
Plans dont always work out like they were meant to...I want to see him in situations when his plans wont work nad he will have to either resolve, or
just be stubborn and demand the plan he had.
But, hell...still trying to keep an open mind...
Just to say.
I barely know anything about politics, or rarely follow political events (unless huge, or weird). Nor did I care, before.
But this was such a # show, even I couldnt resist, but jump in and start digging really deep into it.
Actually just because of the dyndns ddos...was too curious not to go try figure out if there are any connections to elections or wikileaks.
(digging quite deep, many not mainstream sources, comparing and also comparing to biased mainstream ones, heh)
This was definitely the best "Reality TV show" in whole world, I have never ever even imagined anything like this, worst thing about it is, that its
not over yet.
heh
