I’ve said 1,000 times (probably literally), on here and reddit, for nearly a decade, that Trump is easily understood and predictable if one understands malignant narcissistic personality disorder. Trump’s picture will be in the DSM-6 one day, right next to the definition. If you aren’t familiar with the diagnosis, please have a look for yourself. Not some pop-sci shit, look at medical definitions, the traits required for such a diagnosis.

Think a guy like that is putting himself in a subservient sexual position? For any sort of personal gain?!

But let’s say you have some angle you find plausible from Trump’s POV. What in the hell makes you think Clinton would want an old white guy to blow him? He’s the poster boy for hetero horndog.

“But what about the text of the email?!”

Who knows? We need the preceding context. Ever joked around about the kompromat the Russians must have on Trump? Maybe it was that sort of reference? Ever joked that so-and-so must be sucking dick to get favors you couldn’t otherwise understand? Also, notice they dropped it, zero further discussion?

This is a picture perfect case of social media taking a thing at face value because it’s just too juicy not to believe. Don’t know what the take is on other social media, but I find you guys taking way too much at face value because you want to believe. Be better, think critically.

tl;dr: Trump wouldn’t do it. Clinton wouldn’t want it. Makes for great memes, but it’s absurd on it’s face.

    It’s exactly because of his NPD that we want to perpetrate these rumors until he shits himself with 79yo indignancy. We literally do not care what the truth is when this man uses fabrications as his primary weapon. He Monika’d a democrat to get into politics. End of story.

      I LOVE the whole meme. So hope this is making into the Oval Office. But I’m talking about people on lemmy taking the thing at face value. There is no fucking way.

      If you don’t think people are taking it literally, note the downvotes. c/unpopularopinion be damned, these people are upset at me calling them out.
