KARAKTER TRUMP

7 April 2026

Karakter Trump


1. Kematian Hati Nurani

Trump adalah operator politik yang sangat cerdik dan cerdas. Namun dia juga seorang narsisis yang sangat terang-terangan dan seorang showman yang terus-menerus mencari perhatian di TV dan platform Truth Social miliknya.

Dia adalah seseorang yang membutuhkan kekaguman terus-menerus, yang hidup dari validasi, dan yang memiliki sangat sedikit kepekaan alami terhadap penderitaan atau sudut pandang orang lain.


2. Rasa Berhak Dan Dominasi

Ada rasa berhak yang kuat di sini, dan kecenderungan untuk menggertak dan mendominasi daripada membujuk. Dia benar-benar merasa bahwa dirinya layak mendapatkan hak istimewa atau perlakuan khusus.


3. Tekanan Memperkeras Sifat

Di bawah tekanan, sifat-sifat ini tidak melunak, tetapi justru mengeras, dia menggandakan sikapnya. Nadanya menjadi lebih tajam, lebih absolut, lebih personal, hingga pada titik vulgaritas dan kata-kata kasar.




4. Naluri Menggantikan Sistem

Dia berbicara seolah-olah aturan tidak benar-benar berlaku baginya, seolah hukum internasional itu opsional, dan seolah keputusan ditentukan oleh apa yang dia rasakan benar pada saat itu. Itu adalah naluri dan impuls. Dia cukup terbuka tentang hal ini, sebagaimana dia terbuka dan langsung tentang segala hal.


5. Faktor Usia

Dan kemudian ada faktor usia. Dia mendekati 80 tahun. Bahkan orang yang paling kuat pun melambat dalam berbagai cara - tidak selalu secara fisik - dia memiliki energi yang besar, tetapi dalam hal penilaian, kesabaran, dan pengendalian emosi. Itu tidak terjadi sekaligus (siapa pun yang mengamati orang yang lebih tua tahu ini), dan tidak terjadi dengan cara yang sama pada setiap orang, tetapi hal itu ada di latar belakang, dan beberapa orang sudah melihat tanda-tanda demensia bahkan kegilaan.


6. Ringkasan Karakter

Jadi itulah tentang karakter, sikap, dan usia dirinya.


7. Kombinasi Berbahaya

Ketika Anda menggabungkan kekuasaan besar dari Presiden Amerika Serikat, kepribadian yang reaktif, dan kecenderungan terhadap konfrontasi, Anda mendapatkan sesuatu yang membuat orang di mana-mana merasa tidak nyaman, jika tidak benar-benar cemas… dan bukan tanpa alasan. Dia mungkin “Taco Trump”, tetapi lihat apa yang telah dia lakukan dan apa yang dia ancam lakukan kali ini – menghancurkan seluruh Iran dan mengembalikannya ke Zaman Batu – dan jelas bahwa dia atau Netanyahu akan beralih ke senjata nuklir jika mereka tidak mendapatkan keinginan mereka.


Glosarium

bergantung pada validasi - membutuhkan pujian dan persetujuan untuk merasa baik tentang dirinya sendiri, sangat responsif terhadap pujian, bereaksi kuat terhadap kritik, terus-menerus mencari tanda-tanda kekaguman

Narsisisme - adalah gaya kepribadian yang dibangun di atas kepentingan diri yang berlebihan, kebutuhan akan kekaguman, dan rendahnya empati.

rasa berhak keyakinan- bahwa seseorang pantas mendapatkan perlakuan atau hak istimewa khusus tanpa harus mendapatkannya. Dia menganggap – dan menyatakan! – bahwa aturan tidak berlaku baginya, dia merasa harus mendapatkan apa pun yang dia inginkan dan orang lain harus menyingkir. Dan jika segala sesuatu tidak berjalan sesuai keinginannya, dia menjadi tidak sabar dan sangat marah… marah jika ditantang oleh apa yang dia anggap sebagai bentuk tidak hormat. Dia memecat orang sesuka hati jika dia menganggap mereka tidak loyal atau tidak patuh.

THE DANGEROUS CHARACTER IN THE WHITE HOUSE

THE DANGEROUS CHARACTER IN THE WHITE HOUSE

The Death Of Conscience

Trump is an outstandingly shrewd and intelligent political operator, most will recognise his mastery of the art of BS. But he is also an in-your-face narcissist and a showman who is forever seeking attention on TV and his Truth Social platform. What is the character behind this? 

Though he is a highly manipulative speaker with scant respect for the truth, where persuasion fails he will bully and dominate the obdurate.

He is someone who needs constant attention and admiration, who feeds off validation, and who has little natural feel or compassion for the suffering or perspective of others.

There is a strong sense of entitlement here, he thinks he is deserving of privileges or special treatment because he is Donald Trump. This is where the arrogance comes from.

He is a visionary thinker, but the downside of being a visionary is that Trump is weak at follow through - this is why he is branded "TACO Trump". (Trump always chickens out.) 

Under pressure, these traits don’t soften, they harden, he doubles down. His tone becomes sharper, more confrontational, more absolute, more personal, to the point of vulgarity and profanity.

He talks as if the rules don’t actually apply to him, as if international law is optional, and as if decisions come down to what he feels is right in the moment. That is instinct and impulse and someone controlled less by reason and more by emotion, the sense of grandeur and their dopamine cycles, at times more frequent than daily. He's quite open about this, as he is disarmingly open and direct about everything. Running on impulse makes for a transactional tactical personality, someone who has the Vision but doesn't see the planning needed, someone who doesn't appreciate the second and third order effects of their actions.

And then there is age. Trump is pushing 80. Even the strongest people slow down in different ways, though he remains someone with enormous energy. The slowdown is not only physical, but as they age - especially past 80 - older people lose judgement, patience, and emotional control. It doesn’t happen all at once (as anyone knows who watches older people), and it doesn’t happen the same way for everyone, but it is there in the background, and some are already seeing signs of dementia and even madness.

So that's for his character, attitude and age.

Politically, when you combine the enormous power of rhe POTUS, with a reactive personality, and a taste for confrontation, you end up with something that makes people everywhere uneasy if not outright anxious... and not without reason. He may be Taco Trump, but look at what he's done and what he's threatening to do this time - blowing up the whole of Iran because he is being disrespected, sending it back to the Stone Age, destroying a millennial civilisation, and it's obvious that he or Netanyahu will turn to nukes if they don't get their way. (Netanyahu has this Zionist vision for a greater Israel, but Israel is essentially a puppet of America, a "settler colony".) 


Glossary

Feeds off validation - needs praise and approval to feel good about himself, is highly responsive to compliments, reacts strongly to criticism, constantly looking for signs of admiration

Narcissism - a personality style built around self-importance, need for admiration, and low empathy.

Sense of entitlement - he believes he deserves special treatment or privileges, without necessarily needing to earn them. He assumes - and states! - that rules don’t apply to him, he believes he should get whatever he wants and others should move out of his way. And if things don't go his way he gets impatient and very angry...angry if challenged by what he sees as disrespect. He just fires people at will if he thinks they are disloyal or disobedient oh incompetent (he sees himself as genius competent) .

IS TRUMP THE MOST INSANE OF LEADERS EVER

13 February 2025

Imagine a group of regulars meet in a local bar and appoint the maddest of the group to be their spokesman, and that the local town hall agrees to give this spokesman total and complete power over the town for the next four years.

It seems to me that it's not as far fetched as we might imagine.

From the trivial to the serious, we seem to have another madman in charge of America. 

He wants to rename the Gulf of Mexico. He wants to make Canada the fifty first state. He wants to buy greenland even if Denmark doesn't want to sell. He wants ukraine to give america half a trillion dollars in return for continued support. He wants to walk away from Ukraine. He invites Netanyahu to renege on the ceasefire agreement. He wants to cleanse Gaza of Palestinians and turn it into a holiday resort. He wants to impose secondary sanctions on Russia.

Those are truly out-of-the-bar ideas - by what authority can he announce this agenda to the world? It seems often like spur of the moment stuff dreamt-up at an interview on Air Force One.

He's the guy who thought North Korea would become his next best friend. He walked away from the JCPOA. He wants to take the ICC to court. He has quit the WHO and Paris accord.  He has slapped 25% tariffs on steel and alu imports.

His MAGA agenda looks like a mad arsonist, a narcissist whose only interest is to keep attention focused on himself.

How is any of Trump's agenda better than that of that senile old f**l who preceded him?

I don't know what proceeding centuries on planet Earth were like, but definitely the 21st century looks to me utterly insane!

What happened to public accountability or debate? Where are our representatives in all this decision-making process? Isn't what we are living through totalitarianism rather than democracy? Where is the voice of the people, even "his" people?

A LESSON IN FLATTERY

4 February 2023

https://youtu.be/xwPq7xAKi9I


Fully agree with Tucker's analysis and conclusions. The way he sensationalises is so funny and that is why people watch him.

After all, what has he just said?

 Boris went to Washington to promote a world war, but refused an invitation to appear on Tucker's show because he is afraid of the questions he'd face.

It would be a war for democracy except the people haven't been consulted and don't want it.


 Consider the position of Lindsay Grahame: a neo-con on foreign policy and an extreme liberal on immigration. (A neo liberal is a no-borders virtue-signaler - the "neo" part - who puts everyone first irrespective of where, which nation-state, on the planet they live.)

Grahame successfully argued for sending Abram tanks to Ukraine and now wants the US to send F16 fighter jets. He also opposed Trump on the wall.

Sending F16 fighter jets would mean America becoming directly involved in a war with a nuclear-armed superpower, and from there it's a short step to exchanges of nuclear missiles and thereafter ... oblivion.


 Now here is something that needs explaining : how can LG be an extreme neocon and an extreme liberal, yet also be  Trump's no.1 supporter in the Senate and campaign for and with Trump?

MAGA Trump, who pulls America out of wars and attacks NATO, America's creature for making war ; and Trump who wants a wall built and who believes in national borders. 

And the answer is that Grahame believes Trump will get the Republican nomination and be the next POTUS, and through Ottoman-style flattery of telling the ruler what he wants to hear, thriugh flattery Grahame seeks to subvert Trump's policies. As he did with Biden's on sending in the Abrams.


 Prefer direct assault and honest crticism to falsehood, flattery and subversion.
