• immigrants eating pets

    From JAB@21:1/5 to All on Wed Sep 11 12:32:50 2024
    A key point missing in a lot of post debate analysis is that Trump's
    claim about immigrants eating pets almost perfectly syncs up to the
    piano in the Peanuts theme song.

    Did his parents (or grandparents, I'm too lazy to check how many
    generations his family has lived in the USA) eat pets?

    Fact Check: No evidence of Haitian immigrants stealing and eating pets

    woman's arrest in Canton, Ohio, for killing and eating a cat to

    immigrant," "She is a life long Canton resident."

    It would appear his grandfather had other things to do, but had no
    moral fiber...must run in the family.



    Donald Trump's grandfather got rich in the Yukon with hotels known for
    'female companionship'
    ...
    ...
    His grandfather, Frederick Trump, joined the Klondike gold rush
    stampede and operated a series of restaurants and hotels, invariably
    boosting them as the "newest, neatest and best equipped north of
    Vancouver."
    ...
    ...
    "The business of seeing to his customers' needs for food, drink and
    female companionship had been good to him," she said.
    ...
    ...
    He said Trump's restaurant was the best in Bennett and great for
    single men, "but I would not advise respectable women to go there to
    sleep as they are liable to hear that which would be repugnant to
    their feelings and uttered, too, by the depraved of their own sex."

    Once again, I take no sides in the American presidential election but I do have my observations. The accusations made (I don't know if they've been verified) was that it was ducks that were taken and eaten. The insinuation by Trump was that they were stealing people's pet dogs and cats and making a Chinese cuisine. Where as the duck story may be true, it was presented as something far worse. Up to that point, I thought the debate was a tie. Afterwards is up for debate.


    I have studied pro-Trump sources deeply, and it seems to me the common
    opinion is that he performed badly. He did not press Cackles on any
    issues, and ended up on the defensive. On top of that, the moderators were
    on the side of Cackles and not objective at all, only focusing on arguing against Trump.

    But, the silver lining, is that the debate was so bad that it probably
    won't shift the opinion much either way.

    And let us hasten to add that that was legal at that time, and let us not
    judge history with todays eyes, as is so common on the woke side of the political spectrum.

    Analytically, he failed, but others' opinions would depend upon their "reference frame."
    ==================================

    'Beauty in the eye of the beholder' has a literal meaning: that the
    perception of beauty is subjective-- people can have differing
    opinions on what is beautiful.
    ...
    ...
    The concept that each individual has a different inclination of what
    is beautiful first appeared in the 3rd century BC in Greek. According
    to Plato, the sense of beauty is itself transient in nature. So, a
    thing beautiful for one might not be beautiful for the other.

    English sailors on the HMS Dolphin in 1766 discovered that native
    women on islands would trade sex for iron, and began pulling nails
    out, causing loss of the ship's structural integrity.

    Although traditional Tahitian culture did not sanction extramarital
    sexual relations, within 48 hours of Wallis's arrival, Tahitian
    husbands and fathers were encouraging their wives and daughters to
    swim out to the Dolphin and offer the sailors sex in exchange for iron
    nails.

    Aware of the brisk trade in iron, later explorers such as Captain
    James Cook brought supplies of nails and hoop iron with them to
    barter.

    It was unhinged. His expected reaction:

    "OMG! WHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TO!!??"

    instead, he got:

    "OMG! WEIRD ORANGE MAN IS ABSURD!!"

    She has strong verbal communication skills, and is in tune with

    ===================
    What are examples of verbal skills?

    Examples of verbal communication skills include thinking before one
    speaks, knowing your audience, being precise and concise, being
    prepared to clarify in a friendly manner, and speaking clearly.
    ===============

    All the above was learned/practiced while being a lawyer.

    Verbal communication skills are not always in sync for doing the task
    at hand.

    A Good POTUS - One who listens to others' opinions before coming to a conclusion. One who respects the oath taken to be a POTUS.

    Sadly, there are POTUSs who have their own and/or party's agenda, and
    at least one who should have been "fired" by congress.
