For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally. |

I have seen earthworms wriggle less on a hook, but as always, thanks for raising a smile.
Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |

So it's pure coincidence that you used the pivotal figure of Hitler, you could have used John F. Kennedy.

Kennedy didn't hold huge rallies routinely as a way of galvanising support. He certainly became much admired at home and across the globe but much of that came later and wasn't something he engineered via a personality cult.

As Trump has acknowledged his debt to Roy Cohn, and it is generally accepted, I think it goes well beyond my imagination. You though can imagine it's untrue if you so choose. As I don't recall ever mentioning freeing slaves your last line is puzzling. Let me pretend to be you. Where has Trump acknowledged his debt to Roy Cohn , prove your assertion ....when you saved a presumably Filipina from exploitation in some Middle Eastern country blah blah.
