At least he proves you don't have to be poor to be white trash.

He is old school. One mans trash is another mans treasure. We must have an abundance of white trash. Time to clean up this whole mess. He's a two year old with stupid hair.

Yes, we need one who isn't a laughing stock. Too bad we don't have one.

Oh, he's said hundreds of contradictory things. He used to be pro-choice, now he says women who exercise this right should be punished. Punished! He also said if he was elected president he'd be so busy that he'd have no time for golfing. He's now golfed more than any other US president in history. He's a consummate liar whose truth is whatever he feels it is in the moment. He's an absolute disgrace as both a president and a human being.

So who's he got in mind. No wait. He's voting for himself again. Along with rootin' tootin' Putin. He is a many of many firsts. And the first President to have boobs posted on the internet that weren't connected to his mistress. They belong to the American public. I pray I never see trumps naked body on some page propping up. I think he must look like a fat, naked mole rat. All white and...

Thank god he’s our president. He’s such a great leader, just try to outfox him in strategy. There has been so much winning I defy you to name it all. Speaking about disrespect he doesn’t know the meaning of the word.

I understand why people keep bashing the President. People have opinions and other concepts that they believe in. Democrats believe some things, Republicans believe in others. All anyone that was ever President, even if they were a controversial one, asks for is Respect.

As a European I would like to say that President Trump is not a laughing stock to us or the rest of the world as far as I know it. We are concerned about the things he might do next but we rarely feel like laughing about him. No one likes to laugh about that one crazy, axe wielding neighbour.

Actually that is far from true. He seriously is laughed at because he comes out with some absolute howlers. It is also a very normal reaction when people also fear how far the lack of morals and intelligence will lead someone who has limited control on how they react. Laugh or cry.

Did you see the idiot said in 2013 that we need to build mor bridges and less walls but what does he say now? How can you agree and support someone who says anything whether he believes or stand by it. This is the sporadic and indecisive thinking you want running this country.

While it's hard to predict the future, some people are exceptionally good at it. The so-called "super-forecasters" can predict the likelihood of future events with astonishing accuracy, often with no particular prior expertise. Historically, evidence suggests that they are mostly generalists who dabble in all sorts of fields. They're simply less beholden to their own biases. The same applies when reversed, people who have built up an impressive but narrowly-focused expertise are usually less-accurate with their future predictions because they're limited by their own worldviews more.

Surprisingly, this is also true with people who have dedicated their lives to one field of study when they're trying to guess where that field is going. And we have data on that, emerging after a 20-year experiment that began in 1984 at a meeting of a National Research Council committee on American-Soviet relations. At the time, the psychologist and political scientist Philip E. Tetlock was 30. After listening to other members discuss Soviet intentions and American policies, he was interested in the authoritative predictions delivered by renowned experts because many of them contradicted one another.

ADVERTISEMENT

Soon after, he decided to put expert political and economic predictions to the test. Tetlock collected forecasts from 284 well-educated experts who averaged more than 12 years of experience in their fields. Ensuring that the predictions were concrete, experts had to give specific probabilities of future events. Tetlock wanted to collect enough predictions that he could separate lucky and unlucky streaks from true skill. The project lasted 20 years and comprised of 82,361 probability estimates about the future.

The result: the experts were, by and large, terrible at predicting the future. Surprisingly, their areas of specialty, years of experience, and (for some) access to classified information made no difference either. They were bad at both short-term forecasting and at long-term forecasting. They were simply bad at this.

"Virtual unknowns"? That was just in the US. In Australia and the UK, respectively, both were bankable actors at this point in their careers.

When I was in mid. school and obsessed with video games, I was told "video games will give you no bread". Guess where I work now? And they give me both bread and brioche and even more! ♥

To be fair, Isis is also the name of an Egyptian Goddess, so the radical Muslims didn't come up with the name
