She said she was trying to choose her words carefully, but Trump's constant attacks against women were becoming the most important issue in the campaign, and she called him "pathetic". Brought up how Trump referred to women in his book in terms she wouldn't use. (This about Trump's patting himself on the back about not bringing up things in the debate because of Chelsea.)

Words have proper spellings. You can't decide how to spell words based on your opinion of how they should be spelled.

We'll just have to agree to disagree here, ok dear? I think you're stuck on the fact that you managed to search for an hour and finally found one obscure reference that tells you that "judgement" was, at one time, centuries ago, an accepted spelling (in England only). That doesn't make "judgement" correct. It makes you dogmatic and unreasonable and unable to accept reality. Living in reality tells us that "judgment" is the correct spelling of the word. I'm sorry that you are unable to see this and want to dig your heels in on an indefensible position.

Once again, good day, sir.

"Judgment" is used almost universally in the USA. "Judgement" is used, along with "judgment" in the UK and in other places.

Both are correct, and picking at nits like this is not a worthwhile activity.

Some people on DU act like they have too much time on their hands. I'm bored, and I like to pick fights over nothing because I have nothing better to do with my time.

At least I'm not the guy wasting hours of my time trying to prove that Trump was right. He was clearly wrong. He was tweeting from New York, not London. This is very, very, very important in the grand scheme of things.

Like clinically sleep deprived. Just getting in a
couple of hours each day. Might be caused by
lots of things, who knows. But just look at the
huge bags under his eyes. Might explain some
of his manic behavior too. He does not behave
like a healthy person.

Fri Sep 30, 2016, 08:38 AM
Sep 2016

A very few people have the true ability to function well with only 4 hours sleep a night. Almost all people like that would use the time to read and study, especially in this day and age of vast quantities of information available online and books available from Amazon et al in a day or two. He could have a courier deliver a book a day from NY book stores and devour it overnight.

Oh, wait, ... he is widely known to only have a 5 minute attention span.

Re bags under the eyes: many people get them without sleep deprivation. The sphincter mouth he has is another story. He has worked hard to be able to form that so frequently.

Fri Sep 30, 2016, 09:17 AM
Sep 2016

to criticism, beyond anything normal people can imagine, and we're no doubt seeing a very embattled Trump. I've wondered for a long time if campaign pressures might cause a regression of his disorder and how it would play out. Apparently regression can even progress to psychotic behaviors, though apparently nobody's seeing anything like that.

In any case, there is a pattern that's developed. We're witnessing Trump's self-destructive "narcissistic rages" act out for the 2-4 days or so after major societal criticism that it takes his handlers to get him down off the ceiling.

How common are borderline and narcissistic personality disorders?
According to the largest study ever conducted on personality disorders (PD) by the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH), 5.9% of the U.S. population has BPD (Grant et al. 2008) and 6.2% has NPD (Stinson et al. 2008). As some people fit both diagnoses, about 10 percent of the U.S. population has BPD and/or NPD. (Stinson et al. 2008).

Amachado means to be stubbornly obstinate, with a hint of machismo thrown in.
