How to successfully calm and manage a Trump fanboy.

[Slartibartfast]

I've spent a lot of time here pushing back and sometimes just shoving Trumpers/Trumptards etc.

Between the morons, autistic spectrums, bit narcissists, douchebags of all flavours and combinations there is one factor that seems consistently present, they are men with a low sense of external control over their lives.

The high functioning sadists and sociopaths found on 4chan etc. are not very present on ET.

What may be of interest to the rebels fighting against the fart side of the farce is this talk given as part of a good series on debunking 9/11. It discusses the psychology of a Truther and as we know where Truthers are, Trumpers are.

When one considers the psychology of following strong men and that of finding order in a chaotic world of truthers, they are clearly one and the same.

It would probably be worth looking at one of the earlier videos to get a taste but this alone should be sufficient. Sound quality in this one is poor I'm afraid.

Sometimes you are stuck with one and understanding how conspiracy theory and strong man following connect helped me a lot.

I do some community work at a centre here and there is one guy who has a good heart but he is obsessed with Trump and can't help but talk about him. So much so I printed him a "Think outside the Fox" t-shirt for his birthday which he has worn.

I have found with guys in the real world just to acknowledge their anxiety about not having control over their lives. They calm right down and you can talk about other matters.

The guy in the video Dave who perhaps looks like kid is actually a 27 year old PhD Psychology researcher.

But you can dimish the urge to hit stupid with a rock.

That makes no sense.... just so you know.

btw... why do you keep changing your avatar and using these silver-screen man-stud images? Hmmmm.... maybe you should do two walks per day... and take salt-peter.

Meant for others who can understand it Vanzandt.

Well I was going with a theme of my favourite actor, Bruce Campbell. However, my daughter sent me a pic of my "genetic pre-incarnation" she says. A colourised photo of someone who died in the 1860s. It is actually uncanny, I'm taller and have dark blonde hair not black but in my 20s-30s..

Anyway if you are a student of history you will figure out why he is doubly apt for an avatar here.
