No.  But you knew that already.
But this is really sad. That so many of our fellow Americans bought into this swindler’s con.
Perhaps Paul was right. He just might be an expert at NLP and subsequently was able to brainwash a near majority of the voting public. Look how difficult it has been for seemingly reasonable posters here to unhitch their horses even when presented with massive evidence. |

It would be funny if he meant any of it in jest. But he seriously means it. The reason he doesn't listen to experts in a field is he thinks he knows more. Yet he has no education or training in any of the fields including business.

He is mentally sick, he really, really needs help. But since he knows everything, he can't understand that.

Did you watch the video? I couldn't stop laughing. Believe Me! Me too until I remembered he is our POTUS for two more years...he is in control of thousands of nuclear weapons and the delivery systems.... and suddenly the humor escaped me.....Believe me!  |

The Death Of ExpertiseThere’s also that immutable problem known as “human nature.” It has a name now: it’s called the Dunning-Kruger effect, which says, in sum, that the dumber you are, the more confident you are that you’re not actually dumb. And when you get invested in being aggressively dumb…well, the last thing you want to encounter are experts who disagree with you, and so you dismiss them in order to maintain your unreasonably high opinion of yourself. (There’s a lot of that loose on social media, especially.) And in the White House.
