This goes to deep personal character flaws. When evaluating people for personality disorders, one of the flags are self serving statements that are almost logically impossible to be literally true such as: I always read the paper, I always go to church, I always take out the trash. A normal person says I "almost" always read the paper or something similar. If we are down with the flu we don't go to church or take out the trash. Trump brags about not reading. Then has the audacity to claim that "Nobody reads the bible more than me". I'll wager he has never read the bible. Or any other significant work of literature or history. Those claims are logically false, literally impossible. They insult the intelligence of the listener. -----Original Message----- From: Travis Johnson Sent: Thursday, October 20, 2016 9:25 AM To: af@afmug.com Subject: Re: [AFMUG] [OT][Politics] Come on Chuck... we all know this is politics. The candidates say whatever they think they can get away with, in order to get a vote. Then after they win, they don't have to do any of the things they said they would do. I'd love to see a system where if a candidate makes a promise, wins the election, and then doesn't follow through, that they are held accountable (in some way). Right now it's all just words (from both sides)... saying and doing whatever they can or want to, in order to try and win. Obama did the same thing. "Politics" is the polite word for "liar". :) Travis On 10/20/2016 9:08 AM, ch...@wbmfg.com wrote: > I don’t have an issue with some of the positions of Trump, I even agree > with some of them.
