Trump, the Manchild
 
Lest you had any doubts about the fact that Trump is a 13 year-old in 70 year-old's body,

Keith Schiller, President Donald Trump's longtime bodyguard and confidante, made regular trips to McDonald's to pick up meals for the president both on the campaign trail and in the White House, Politico reported in a Monday profile of Schiller.

When Trump was dissatisfied with the White House kitchen staff's imitation of a McDonald's cheeseburger, Schiller — officially the director of Oval Office operations — would make runs to a McDonald's on New York Avenue in Washington, DC to pick up a Quarter Pounder or two with cheese, no pickles and extra ketchup, with a fried apple pie.

This comes after him having a cheeseburger and a Coke for his first meal in Japan, followed by a well-done steak that night. Visit Japan, home of one of the world's great cuisines, on a diplomatic trip and eat a cheeseburger and a well-done steak? I hope Melania brought his binky and plenty of diapers.:rolleyes:

Why do conservatives like their steaks well-done? It correlates, I swear it does....

It certainly does with my mother-in-law. Only well-done beef or lamb. Dreadful.

Must be something to do with the Golden Arches.

You guys are so filled with hate that you've got to spin about Trump's affinity for McDonalds? That's hilarious.

Finn - you're such a shill. Where were you when the junk food junkie Obama was dining on his favorite burgers and fries?

Nah. Need my steak pink and juicy. Medium is my absolute limit.

I was making a point about Trump's childishness, from insisting that the White House kitchen duplicate McD's to him eating a burger and a Coke on a state visit to Japan (instead of real food in a country known for fantastic food). His childishness manifests itself it many other ways as well (tweeting, taunting, incessant lying, bragging about grabbing pussies...), things you defend at every turn (the definition of a shill, BTW).

As for me being a shill, I've only ever been a registered Republican (for 15 years) and an Independent. I've never been a Democrat, nor did I vote for Hillary. I think profound disgust with Trump is the sign of good character and high moral fiber, whereas defending his juvenile, harmful behavior is the sign of a damaged soul.:cool:

Your Dear Leader is a spoiled 13 year-old twit in an overweight 70 year-old's body. I throw a lot of criticism his way because I enjoy watching you debase yourself by reflexively defending every ridiculous thing he does.

Rajoo 11-08-2017 10:54 AM

To put a positive spin on this. Let's all send Trump a $10/- McDonald Gift Certificate for Thanksgiving. :D

I think the frequency and volume that you vent your "disgust" is juvenile. You still also have yet to figure out that I'm not defending anyone. I'm laughing at you while adding a bit of appropriate perspective.

As for that perceptive, both Obama and Clinton liked their burgers, and Obama also liked candy. It was also a Dem - Truman - who liked his steaks rare.

As for the Cheeseburger with Abe, apparently the burgers were from Munch's Burger Shack, a burger chain in Tokyo that Abe apparently likes. But hey, don't let the facts get in the way of a good hissy fit to help you vent your "disgust".

I see you're still doting on your manchild. How cute.;)

Thankfully, he hasn't been served a whole fish with the head on (something specifically prohibited by Trump's advance team). He might throw a hissy fit and soil his diaper. It was fun reading how his aides briefed the Toddler-in-Chief in preparation for his trip.

Top aides have sought to keep the briefings short to avoid overloading the president with details but have scheduled dozens of them to plan public remarks and outline what he should say about North Korea on defense and China on trade. “We’ve kind of tried to do it in pieces so it’s easy to keep up with.”

...The president’s advisers acknowledge privately that Trump’s unpredictable behavior could complicate the trip in ways big and small, from potentially escalating the crisis on the Korean Peninsula to flouting complicated rules of procedure. “You never know what he’ll say,” an administration official said, adding that the grueling schedule could heighten the risk of mistakes. An outside adviser to the administration concurred: “The potential for error is huge.”

I'm gonna say your assessment is a smidgen off, finn. I'm going with around 6 years old.

Trump is pure "preoperational".

The key features of Piaget's preoperational stage include:

Centration
This is the tendency to focus on only one aspect of a situation at one time. When a child can focus on more than one aspect of a situation at the same time they have the ability to decenter. (Ike - Trump has little ability to decenter)

During this stage children have difficulties thinking about more than one aspect of any situation at the same time; and they have trouble decentering in social situation just as they do in non-social contexts.

Egocentrism
Childrens' thoughts and communications are typically egocentric (i.e. about themselves). Egocentrism refers to the child's inability to see a situation from another person's point of view.

The egocentric child assumes that other people should see, hear, and feel exactly the same as the child does. (Ike - nuff said)

Symbolic Representation
This is the ability to make one thing - a word or an object - stand for something other than itself. Language is perhaps the most obvious form of symbolism that young children display.

Piaget argues that language does not facilitate cognitive development, but merely reflects what the child already knows and contributes little to new knowledge. (Ike - what cognitive development? What new knowledge?)

Artifici@lism (WTF we still have this shit with the ci@lis???)
This is the belief that certain aspects of the environment are manufactured by people (e.g. clouds in the sky). (Ike - Trump has reverse artifici@lism e.g. climate change is not manufactured by people)

Irreversibility
This is the inability the reverse the direction of a sequence of events to their starting point. (Ike - the reason why Trump reacts to things the way he does is that on his preoperational emotional level, he that believes that negative things that happen to him cannot be reversed. Thus the 3AM tantrum tweets.)

OK 6 and a half.

As much as you racist sick fucks hated Obama. Maybe more. Just learn to live with it.

Here is more on Trump being a man child and McMaster should know.

Sources: McMaster Mocked Trump’s Intelligence At A Private Dinner
Quote:

The top national security official dismissed the president variously as an “idiot” and a “dope” with the intelligence of a “kindergartner,” the sources said.
Quote:

A sixth source who was not familiar with the details of the dinner told BuzzFeed News that McMaster had made similarly derogatory comments about Trump’s intelligence to him in private, including that the president lacked the necessary brainpower to understand the matters before the National Security Council.
So first Kelley, now McMaster. Now the the GOP Senator calling the WH Adult Day Care Center makes sense. A man-child who is dangerous to the country.

Hamburgers are real food. Coke is another story. :cool:

Pretty sure the first bold is contradicted by the second. :rolleyes:

Aha! The correlation goes both ways! Strong evidence, thank-you.
