Learning a language is a tough and challenging endeavor. In our family, most people can speak three languages, and some of my aunts can even speak four. I remember, during my language studies, encountering a student who could speak 15 languages, and his friend knew even more. I believe the government would greatly value individuals with such linguistic abilities.
While many women may wonder about a guy's earning potential when dating, my focus has always been on how many languages he speaks or how much vocabulary he can teach me. I think understanding the languages someone speaks is crucial to avoid misunderstandings in a relationship.
During my time studying Chinese in Taiwan, I immersed myself in the local culture, haggling like the locals and engaging in gossip . As of now, my proficiency in both German and Korean is at a low level.
The "Lowest Common Denominator" has just gone lower.
The work of very low-grade genetic material, if you ever need to see it. Absolute bottom-of-the-barrel stuff.

A.) He lies. A LOT. Politifact rates 70% of the words he speaks as “Mostly False or worse” Only 14% of the things he says get a “Mostly True” or better rating. That is an absolutely unbelievable number. How he doesn’t speak more truth by mistake is beyond me. To put it in context, Obama’s rating was 26% mostly false or worse, and I had a problem with that. Many of Trump’s former business associates report that he has always been a compulsive liar, but now he’s the President of the United States, and that’s a problem. And this man expects you to believe him when he points at other people and says “They’re lying.”
B.) He’s an authoritarian populist, not a conservative. He advances regressive social policy while proposing to expand federal spending and federalist authority over states, both of which conservatives are supposed to hate.
C.) He pretends at Christianity to court the Religious Right but fails to live anything resembling a Christ-like life. 1 Corinthians 5:11
D.) His nationalist “America First” message effectively alienates us and removes us from our place as leaders in the international community.
E.) His ideas on “keeping us safe” are all thinly veiled ideas to remove our freedoms—he is, after all, an authoritarian first. They also are simply bad ideas.
F.) He couldn’t pass a 3rd-grade civics exam. He doesn't know what he’s doing. He doesn't understand how international relations work, he doesn’t understand how federal state or local governments work, and every time someone tries to “run it like a business” it’s a spectacular failure. See Colorado Springs’ recent history as an example. The Short, Unhappy Life of a Libertarian Paradise And that was a businessman with a MUCH better business track record than Trump. We are talking about a man who lost money owning a freaking gambling casino.
G.) He behaves unethically and always has. As a businessman, he constantly left in his wake unpaid contractors and invoices, litigation, broken promises, whatever he could get away with.
H.) He is damaging our relationships with our best international friends while kissing up to nations that do not have our best interests in mind. To his question “Wouldn't it be great to have better relations with Russia?” The answer is Yes. But it is RUSSIA who needs to earn that, who must stop doing the things that are damaging to that relationship, or we are simply weaker for it.
I.) He has never seen a shortcut he didn't like, and you can’t take shortcuts in government. “Nuclear Option, Remove the Filibuster, I’ll change the Constitution by Executive Order…” Don…what happens when you remove the filibuster and the other side retakes the majority in the Senate? Suddenly want that filibuster back? What happens if you manage to change the Constitution by Executive Order and an anti-2A president wins the next election?
J.) He behaves and has always behaved as an unabashed racist. Yes, I’ve seen your favourite meme that claims he was never accused of racism before the Democrats…Absolutely false. Donald Trump’s long history of racism, from the 1970s to 2019 See the Central Park 5, the lawsuits and fines resulting from his refusal to lease to black tenants, the 1992 lost appeal trying to overturn penalties for removing black dealers from tables, his remarks to the house Native American affairs subcommittee in 1993. The man sees and treats racial groups of people as monoliths.
K.) He is systematically steamrolling regulations specifically designed to keep a disaster like the 2007 subprime mortgage crisis from happening again.
L.) He speaks and acts like a demagogue. He sees the Legislative and Judicial branches of government as inconveniences, blows up at criticism no matter how deserved and actively tries to countermand constitutional processes, not to mention attempts to blackmail and coerce people who are saying negative things about him.

So a well known welsh oldtimer on here suggested I blogged why DT, the famous one

Mr. Jimmy Dore!
Guess where he comes from.... drumroll....
da left!TYT (The Young Turks and all that..ring a bell?).
So now he is not only a stand up comedian but also a youtube personality.
This his full time job now. Yes those two. And he tend to bring in interesting guests as Joe Rogan do, often journalists; the real type I mean. More often he is analyzing and commenting on present day events as they unfold with his small regular studio crew.
So, instead of me telling you how crazy it all is over there- check this video out.
Here Jimmy Dore with his studio friends
lay out some of the main points of why the ones who run after Trump
simply is not trustworthy.
About 20 minutes, not the longest educational video you ever watched.

The time is almost upon us - the time where we will get a new monarch. It will all happen from the Parliament building in Copenhagen on Sunday. I have thought of going, because I do love the royals and I'm very proud to be a Dane. On the other hand - a lot of people are expected to be there, and I don't do well with that. I might just stay home and watch it online.
It's the first time in 900 years that a monarch abdicates.Now it's time for Crown Prince Frederik to ascend the throne and rule Denmark. He's very well liked by the people. 82% of people asked believe he'll make an excellent King - and I agree. He'll be great!

Chris Christie announced he's formally suspending his campaign for the GOP nomination for the 2024 presidential election. I've seen a few of his public meetings and news casts where he was asked to speak. His goal was clear and his statements accurate, however he didn't have the campaign funds and more importantly never had the polling numbers to continue.
