 that said, DJT aint Jesus. 
hes a narcissistic asshole.

being divisive isn't the most important metric of good (or bad) leadership.

 yeah?
i agree that perception is why he's popular among Christians.

but its a non sequitur.

▲ ▼

 He may be an ass but hes not as bad as the MSM has led you to believe.  
Im not inviting him to dinner.  Im hoping to have him make difficult decisions for the welfare of this country.  Close the border and stop tyranny.

 nobody who wants to be president should be allowed to have the job.

he doesn't care about you or me or "tyranny".
hes gonna get his.

its not specific to DJT.
its just the state of affairs these days.

you have to be a psychopath to be in the position he is in.
its just physics.

 I have a theory that psychopaths evolved because they play a necessary role in humanity

 theres arguably a survival advantage to being a psyco and having psychopath leaders.

 I totally dig your vibe.  Its just all wrong.  
Its essentially the same way I feel when women try to “make” kids get along with each other.  
It sounds great but never works.
Peer pressure, conformity and social justice until one side wins.  For 5000 years this is the way.

 I'm certainly not advocating for this system,
in fact I refuse to participate in it.

but thats whats up.
theyre psychopaths. psychos want to have power over people so they concentrate in places where the power is.
the more power there is, the more competition between bigger crazies.

my idea of a solution is opting out and a return to local economies.

and you know,
maybe kill the psychos.

 lol
no.

 I think you think that psychopaths are bad? psychpothy is a trait found in almost all leaders throughout history.

▲ ▼

 A trait found in all humans at one time or another, on a spectrum of course. Many of us grow out of it to a large degree. A great and necessary survival characteristic in certain times. Not so good for personal relationships though. Not all psychopaths are criminals.

▲ ▼

 I remember being certain that my 2.5yo was definitely a psychopath.

▲ ▼

 I'm not trying to date him.  I want him to lead our country out if this nonsense we've gotten into.

 Bad is a value judgment that I hadn't really considered.

I don't think that encouraging people who are simply interested in exercising power over others has turned out very well.

instead of narcissistic psychopaths I would prefer stoics who find value in sacrificing themselves for public benefit.

its an old fashioned idea,
but better than the resigned attitude we have towards public corruption these days.
