It's not a lie if he believes it.

Uh ok, so if he's completely delusional and ends up starting WWIII it won't be his fault if he believed that N. Korea was about to invade the US with help from the martians.

If he believes it, it doesn't mean he's stupid.

Believing things that aren't true is kinda the definition of stupid. Or are we gonna have alternative definitions now like we have alternative facts?

So he's stubborn over a crowd count....now he's in kahootz with aliens?

You're protesting your sensational hypothesis. There's really no point in debating this.

if you think it's possible he'll start a war over martians, all I can say is that you should wear less tinfoil.

The only point I made you can argue with is the one that was a half-joke. And you picked on the joke part as if I really believed it.

Sad.

It really doesn't matter which point. They're all hypothetical. "what if trump does this, or that, and I don't like it??" that's the extent of the arguments against Trump at this point. All hypothetical. All politically motivated. None of it serving any good in regards to solving problems in this country. Just creating them.

He can't just launch nukes on a whim. He can't just change the constitution because it's convenient. He can't piss off the muslim world any more than it already is. And as far as Mexico goes, it doesn't seem that he can piss them off enough that they stop coming here. So what's all the fuss about anyway?

"Criticizing the president creates problems." Lol alternative free speech.

He can't piss off the muslim world any more than it already is.

Wanna bet?

And as far as Mexico goes, it doesn't seem that he can piss them off enough that they stop coming here.

Sure. And saying he's an idiot won't make him stop acting like one either.

So what's all the fuss about anyway?

You tell me. You're the one writing posts that are several pages long.

Nope.

Stupidity is a lack of intelligence, not a lack of knowledge. The word you're defining is "ignorant", which does not mean the same as "stupid".

For example, let's assume I'm having a conversation with somebody. I ask him what 12*12 is, he thinks about it, and says he doesn't know. We then have a discussion about 9/11, which I think is a crock of shit, but let's say he thinks what we're told is the truth. Let's also assume I'm wrong. Well, I might be able to tell you immediately what 12*12 is, but I'm stupider than the fuckwit who got it wrong because he was right about 9/11. Is that how intelligence works? No, it's not.

We all believe things that aren't true. We just haven't yet realised that we're wrong. If someone believes something that is untrue as a consequence of being unable to comprehend the evidence proving them wrong, well then we can talk about stupidity.

Lol, troll.

Lol, troll.

If you think this, then by your own definition, you are stupid.

Believing true things makes one stupid? I think we're on the brink of another Ongdentity here.

Here's an example. I live in Kidderminster, which is in the county of Worcestershie. 6 miles away is a village called Kinver. A week ago, if you asked me what county Kinver is in, I'd have said probably Worcs, but perhaps West Midlands, or maybe even Shropshire, since we're close to both borders. Well, it's in Staffordshire. I had no fucking idea until recently that we are 6 miles away from the Staffordshire border. Look on a map, and you'll see how there is a tiny bit of Staffs that comes as far south as the Worcs - West Mids border. It's easy to assume Staffs is north of Wolverhampton.

So, by your logic, a week ago I was stupid, but now I am not.

No, you're still stupid. Just slightly less so than a week ago.
