re: A reminder that Trump was the GOAT president

That was an EPIC troll from Tenderfoot. It hooked'em by the dozen. Shame it got deleted.

Yep, turns out that unpredictable rough edge that they so often chide Trump for is precisely the most effective trait to have as the Commander in Chief inasmuch as it causes the bad guys enough uncertainty and concern as to whether and when he might very well discipline them with some corporal punishment.
And lest we forget, we have another two years for Biden to weaken us up even worse, so who knows what kind threats will be lingering above us at that end point. There will likely be perhaps existential need for a strong hand to revive the American “big stick” threat. Trump would instantly renew that defense mechanism day one back in office. No learning curve or feeling out period for other world leaders required. They already know.

Nice to see you've been reduced to trolling and admit it since your views are trash. Just a troll at this point PedoHank

Yep, no other president rode in a golf cart so well, while all the other world leaders walked a couple of hundred yards.
Yet, he always went in the right direction and never needed anybody dressed as the Easter Bunny to lead him away.
What else have you got, boy?

Obviously Trump’s racist against the Easter Bunny is all that tells me.

That’s what makes most of the haters so angry - his blatant, unapologetic, in your face self-confidence and self-assuredness A person is either completely comfortable with another person being that way, even if we don’t have that same level of confidence……while others are so lacking in it that they are bitter and jealous, thus their attempts to knock him down to the extreme degree observed non-stop.
How much of the (adult age) general public do you think you covered in these two camps?

Referring, as I essentially intended, to the statistical breakdown of l:
(1) those who are consciously aware of and comfortable with their own levels of self-confidence and self-esteem, even after observing someone else with vastly superior levels of those characteristics
-versus-
(2) those who are also consciously aware, yet angry and frustrated at their notable lack in those areas, ESPECIALLY after personal observation of someone else who is overflowing in those areas…….
I’d say human nature probably dictates those thoughts and considerations enter every adult age person’s mind (of sound enough mind to contemplate such a thought, of course) sooner or later. Probably sooner than later though, in an effort to gauge where one falls on the spectrum of alpha to beta. The notion that those with notably inferior self-esteem are envious of and angry at those with rather healthy self-esteem (or worse, advanced self-esteem) is one of those self-proving and obvious notions, IMO.

THAT was really the best that you could do?
Congratulations on displaying the cerebral capabilities of a massive stroke victim. Just think, if you were a Democrat in Pennsylvania, you could be a Senator by now.

How about 19,000 + lies, boy.

But you also posted this -
while others are so lacking in it that they are bitter and jealous, thus their attempts to knock him down to the extreme degree observed non-stop.
So again, what fraction of the general public do you think you've covered here?

This should be entertaining.

You’re messing with me aren’t you? Am I an easy mark-arse mark tonight? Or did you really think my post was serious??

I guess I’m not following the point of the exercise here. I don’t think I can give you an actual number here, because IMO that itself would seem to stand out as bizarre.
But if you’ve got to have some sort of response nonetheless, I suppose I could be comfortable enough to say something like:
“the entire portion/fraction that is obviously anti-Trump and demonstrates same with fairly regular public, with fairly regular public “shows” of anger and resentment. Which in my experience has been and continues to be a significant “fraction of the general public.”
You’d have to key me in a little better on the overall point if you’re approaching from a different angle.

That would be every night...but I respect your consistency, so there's that.

Hmm. I’ll be. Well good luck with that.

I thought it would be obvious from the question I asked (twice).
Your carving up of the general population doesn't leave any room for a critic that doesn't have self-esteem/self-confidence issues. As if Trump's confidence/alpha characteristics themselves make everything he touches gold, or shared alpha characteristics make one blind. Which is silly.
Moreover, there are loads of only-Trumpers that suffer from severe self-esteem issues and are in no way comfortable around stronger personalities. It's why they latch onto a public figure like DT, to make themselves feel better about being weak.

It’s not obvious because you’ve taken the original remarks that are more intended less literally than you appear to be taking it, and more of a serious notion yet with use of hyperbole. It’s not meant to be hyper-analyzed and scrutinized for scientific accuracy. I can’t see how that’s not very obvious.
You’re more than welcome to take it in any direction you wish, but there’s no sense in me extrapolating any further than what’s already there.

I'm not sure I'm the one hyper-analyzing something.
I asked a question - how much of the general population did you think landed in the two categories you described. I wasn't looking for a dissertation. "Oh, maybe half" would have been more than adequate.
