Trump Biden Debate
I watched the debate last night and have a few comments. I do not have a copyright on the above image even though it says so.
Trump This!
Having been a teacher for 30 years, I cringed at Trumb's disregard and disrespect for the rules of the debate last night, 09-29-20. He exhibited his leadership style to its maximum in his disdain for the other people in the debate. As for Chris Wallace as moderator, he lost control of the debate. He was too “nice” to trump, maybe because he is president. I hope Wallace is not moderator for any future debates.
I was reminded of a book I read as a way to get to know my “new president” in 2016. “Trump This! The Life and Times of Donald Trump,” An Unauthorized Biography. I found the book quite interesting to a teacher aware of discipline and respect. Having worked with students who exhibit disabilities such as Severe Behavioral Disorders, I quickly recognized those symptoms in the childhood of President Trump. Even with special education in those days, he was shown to need more than special needs instruction. Marc Shapiro the author, mentioned that he needed to be transferred to a military school for boys to teach him respect and obedience during his high school career. I could see last night that he never learned to behave with discipline and respect. I find that I can't understand why the the American people wound vote for him, Trump. I've been trying to understand what happened in 2016 and what thought processes his voters followed to casting thier vote for him.
It is my sincere hope that the voters see through him this time. If they don't, I will have lost my trust in them. I'm hoping!
