      Object permanence is when people remember that things exist when you cant see them or they are hidden. Babies develop object permanence as they get older. Thats why playing Peak-a-boo with a baby is so fun for them. You literally disappear and reappear in their eyes.
      This is saying trump is a baby who never developed it.

        It’s particularly apt because Trump’s opinions and interests seem to change from moment to moment depending on who he’s interacted with last.

        This is saying trump is a baby who never developed it.

        it is also saying that he expected the same from news readers. and to be honest this is how news cycles and the idea that readers can only pay attention to one scandal at a time worked for a long time and this strategy was generally working, so you know you fucked up hard when you try to cover your fuck up with a war and it is not working.

      Jeffrey Epstein was a super rich pedophile billionaire who had a private island. He got caught and suicided. There’s many files about the US government’s investigation into his crimes. Trump was his friend.

      Object permanence is when you realize something is there, even if you don’t see it. Like when you leave an amusement park, you know the park is still there when you are home. Children until they reach a certain age, don’t have object permanence, their world kinda just exists because they witness it. Apparently the same goes for child fuckers

        for some of them. more data would be needed to determine whether it applies for all of them.
