Nope, I don’t see it as an error at all, at least not by the President. Should it have been uncovered by previous employers? Perhaps, although since Shanahan, himself, doesn’t seem to have been the perpetrator of domestic violence, I don’t see why it should impact his employment. It’s a tragedy for his family, and it’s doubly tragic that it should become political fodder. But to blame President Trump for not having known about it is just wrong. That’s why he has aides, a chief of staff, the FBI, and others who are responsible for vetting candidates for administration jobs, then advising the President accordingly.

My brother’s ex attacked him, then whined on Facebook “What to do when he hits you”. He said she fits borderline to a t.

I feel bad for Mr. Shanahan and thank him for his service.

I think borderline affects many many women to varying degrees

It’s not quite mental illness and it dovetails nicely with #metoo and victimhood and all the culture rot that has afflicted womanhood in the wake of feminism going back decades in this new world we inhabit of convenience and false security whereby for the first time in recorded history Not even a sneeze in time chronologically ...women actually DO NOT NEED men to survive in a bloody rapist and plunderer and marauder filled world where existential threats are real and not rhetoric

A woman with borderline personality disorder likely has no idea she has it and blames the world and is almost certain not to seek treatment

Little medicine helps except for anxiety and mood...
SSRIs are simply not as effective

Most women like this drink....self medicate

Nobody desires to be miserable....but it’s a fairly hopeless mental condition mostly since the woman will likely never know or self reflect over it

As she destroys everything in her wake relationship wise with manipulation and conniving far beyond literary stereotypes

No emotional availability and if it’s there it’s likely fake or temporary or for a purpose

My hunch is fear of abandonment is at the core of BPD women..

And trauma they will never ever explain from way back

So why does it only seem to afflict ravishing women...

Good question that one isn’t it...

If you seek drop dead hot women with strong carnal appetites and lack of inhibitions as I usually did you run the risk of being involved with a woman with borderline personality disorder

She doesn’t mean to hurt you and betray you and eventually detest and demonize you

But she will

It’s a damn sad affair...

It’s not like pathological mental illness like bipolar or schizophrenia or various paranoid or high intensity narcissistic disorders whereby the afflicted likely knows something is amiss and seeks help

No it’s much more insidious...

Depending on who’s counting the prevalence rate amongst American women is from one in fifty to nearly one in twenty

Marriage counselors make it worse. Kids deserve to grow up with two parents that love each other, but if the parents at at each other’s throats, they are better off in two homes with less conflict. Proven.
