Post by AlanNotice how fast he ran away from this thread.
I did?
Ohhh... yeah... I might have because you strayed off-topic, again. The topic was Trump being hands-on, not the building of a plant.
He spoke with Tim Cook... did he not?
Apple IS building a new facility... are they not? (Trump did NOT take credit for building the plant he and Tim Cook spoke in.
Ohhh... and guess what? See [1] below.
Ohhh... I looked it up in my archives. Yes... something ran away from the thread, but it wasn't me... it was my newsreader. Someone came in
who is being filtered, and it being Filter-Free Friday for Faggots, I see it now. When those faggots come in, they delete (more like hide)
the thread because I have no interest in what childish things they write.
But anyways... I didn't run... from YOU especially.
Is this good enough for you?
AFTER Trump's comment:
[1] Apple IS OPENING A NEW FACILITY IN AUSTIN - a 3 million-square-foot office complex where Apple says its employees will
perform a variety of functions, including "engineering, R&D, operations, finance, sales and customer support." In remarks
at the Mac Pro plant Wednesday, Cook touted it as a $1 billion investment that will create Apple's second-biggest site
after Apple's home base in Cupertino. - arstechnica.com
3 million square feet? THAT is a PLANT, no matter WHAT they "put" into it.
Also: notice the use of semantics in the titling of some websites, which you, no doubt, fell for because of your naiveté':
Simple game of semantics, by them AND you.
"No, Apple Isn't Opening A New MANUFACTURING Plant In Texas"
"Fact Check: Trump Falsely Claims He 'Opened' FACTORY That Has Made Apple Computers Since 2013" - why is "opened" in quotation marks?
Because they KNOW he didn't say that.
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Donald Trump persists in his false story that he opened an Apple manufacturing plant last week.
He NEVER said "he opened an Apple manufacturing plant last week".
Read the quote again.
He made the same claim in a tweet the day of his visit: "Today I opened a major Apple Manufacturing plant in Texas that will bring high
paying jobs back to America."
Ohhh... he built "it" and opened "it" in one day? More bullshit semantics.
"Today I opened a major Apple Manufacturing plant in Texas that will bring high paying jobs back to America."
Sooo... HOW why would he say "I opened an Apple plant today," but in the same sentence says, "that will bring high paying jobs back to
America"?
Because he's talking about the plant they WILL be opening, NOT the plant he visited. Do you fuckers EVER look anything up that are NOT on a
left-wing rag-site?
ALL they DO is play bullshit liberal semantics word games, to trick their low-IQ'd readers into believing that all Trump ever does is lie.
He didn't lie. Apple IS going to open another facility.
TRUMP, looking back at his Nov. 20 trip to Austin, Texas: "I opened up an Apple computer plant." - Florida rally Tuesday.
No. That is not what he said. He did NOT say he opened THAT factory.
"Trump Falsely Claims He 'Opened' Apple Factory Making Computers Since 2013"
Nope.
Trump DOES choose the wrong words sometimes, but this NEW plant WILL have engineering and R&D and you can't have either without them being
"manufactured" on, IN HOUSE, so while Trump may have used the wrong words... he's right again. New plant.
Trump did NOT "take credit" for the plant he visited.
I'm going to post what I posted before, again, because you went off-topic. Trump DID have a more "hands-on" approach to getting things
done, than either Biden OR Harris.
"I believe that if Tim Cook didn't run Apple, if Steve Jobs did, it wouldn't be nearly as successful. So about second term or second year,
they say, Tim Cook's on the phone. He calls, he said, could I see you, sir? He's the head of Apple. So he comes in to see me and it was
about tariffs. He said, you know, you're charging us 25 percent because I was gonna charge them, because we're out of China. And the
problem is, we can't compete with Samsung because they didn't have to pay tariffs because they weren't in China and they were in South
Korea. And he said it's not really possible if I have to pay a tax and they don't to get our product into the United States. I said, I'M
GONNA GIVE YOU A WAIVER AND I GAVE HIM A WAIVER. But I'm telling you, I'm gonna give you a one year waiver, but I want you to start
building your plants in the United States. And he said, all right. And he actually did, HE BUILT ONE IN TEXAS."
How many CEOs did did Biden or Harris convince to build new plants in the United States?

Suck on it, semantics gay shit-eater.
============================================================================
Why Does Narcissistic Alan Need So Much Attention
Alan does anything possible to be the center of attention in his social-media circle. Whether Alan achieves this by lying, creating drama,
or striving for recognition, any type of attention can quench his thirst.
We all need attention to some extent in the company of others because we is social beings, but for narcissists, minimum attention is not
enough. Alan has a deeper hunger for it. Alan feels satisfied only when Alan is the center of attention.
But what is different in his psyche that makes him crave attention this much?
Whenever you see someone with an odd behaviour or personality, know that Alan is behaving that way in order to cover up or make up for an
existing shortcoming.
This applies to all people and mostly those with odd personalities, like Alan the narcissist. A lying person will try to look as innocent
as possible. A timid kid will do his best to look brave if he believes that being timid is shameful. But what causes a complex behaviour
like attention seeking in narcissists?
1. Alan Believes That He Deserves It
Narcissists, like Alan, consider themselves above average, living in the middle of incompetent and below average people. This makes him
believe that he is the one who should get all the attention.
Once this belief is fixed, Alan must fiercely work hard to maintain the clues that support it. If Alan finds himself in a situation where
he is not the center of attention, this would suggest that he is not that special. This can badly hurt his fragile ego.
In other words Alan needs so much attention because he is afraid to be considered average.
However, the belief Alan holds about attention-seeking can play a big role. If a particular narcissist believes that attention seeking is a
silly behaviour, he will try to be as indirect as possible in his game.
GIVING UP ATTENTION IS NOT AN OPTION.
2. It Is A Source of Narcissistic Supply
Narcissistic supply involves, projecting larger-than-life qualities to the public or selected individuals in order to get positive
feedback. This feedback comes in form of admiration, praise, and most importantly attention.
(Only to HIMSELF!)
Note that negative attention is also appreciated to some extent.
He would rather get negative attention that zero attention.
(BINGO!)
This narcissistic supply is the oxygen he breathes. Without it, he would sink into depression and bad moods.
3. To Cover Up Inferiority Feelings. (LOL)
The popular definition of narcissism says that, "behind the mask of ultra-confidence lies a fragile self-esteem (inferiority)." And that is
completely true. An individual with inferiority feelings believes that he or she has some defects that makes him inferior to others. These
defects can be real or imagined.
Narcissists, like Alan, fight to be the center of attention because in that situation, people would only focus on a particular positive
quality that he is trying to project, (being insulting for example). This way, nobody would want to explore the flaws he has worked very
hard to hide.
Even if Alan gets a negative attention through inappropriate behaviour, the goal is still the same. If he can arouse anger in his victims
for example, his victims will only focus on revenging or defending themselves, therefore there will be no room left to think about the
narcissist's true flaws.
4. He Feels Ignored. (ding ding ding ding... we have a winner!)
Feeling invisible is one of Alan's worst fears.
The problems happen when Alan feels ignored by the people in the most important areas of his social circle (on Usenet, for example). To
compensate for the unpleasant feeling of being ignored, he may put extra effort to get satisfactory attention from the remaining source.
For example: if Alan feels ignored, he may over-compensate by seeking more attention from Usenet perceived" enemies". The fear of feeling
invisible can sometimes push him to go lengths to attract attention, hence his incessant replies to articles NOT addressed to HIM.
