So did I.

I was wracking my brain for “racist” connotations, came up empty handed.

This is a weird thread.

Good for you. You should display your accomplishments.

What many here are itching to say, but are afraid to, is: “uppity black man”. As if anyone here wouldn’t display like honors.

OMG.

You played the race card.

I reckon most people are simply not enchanted by a somnolent dude with dubious policies.

Your theory is just a pigment of your imagination.

It sure is and I think that there’s one person here who has some sort of rather peculiar understanding of simple English words...to be able to come out branding me a “racist”.

Methinks I just heard the sound of a towel being tossed.

Do you know the meaning of the word “inept”? Since you tacitly admitted to your butt-whuppin’, my posts were far from inept.

Contrary to your obvious belief, “banal and supercilious” does not mean - refuses to be impressed by me and the names I drop.

I’m just guessing, but when you visited all these fine folks, you and your dad were carrying pipe-wrenches weren’t you?

HUNH?

What on earth is wrong with you ?

There are many wealthy, accomplished black people with good taste, just as there are many whites without any!

You're just weird !

Are you playing Max von Meyerling to Carson’s Norma Desmond?

I have a wall with diplomas, degrees and awards displayed. What else do you do with them?

I spent 6 years getting the PhD. I have a right to display the diploma

Yes, I did - it was the elephant in the room, the whole time.

What does that lack of enchantment have to do with all the excitement about his pictures and tacky décor and such?

Pavlov wept.

[along with ad hominem, I hate psychological triggers, be they words or phrases]

“NAZI!”

There.

That’s out of the way, now.

You call me weird - Coming from a brain-freeze such as yourself, I am highly gratified.

I think I will hang your post on my wall!!

You didn't "hear" anything but your own putrid flop sweat, from the beating your taking !

I know exactly what "inept" means and doubt that you do.

Obviously, your vocabulary skills are abjectly lacking; in the extreme. Pleas DO look up the words you are unfamiliar with, prior to posting to me again.

LOL...I'm certainly not out to "impress" you; I just stated some facts, since you are obviously IMPRESSED only by those whom you are having a difficult time stopping your misplaced hero worship over.

Oh so now it's familial personal insults? Can you descend lower than the gutter? I bet you can.

I’m not the one claiming he is more accomplished. The burden of proof is on you.

But, I am truly unable to figure out in what way Trump is more accomplished than Carson.

And you know Trump does not have a similar wall????
