Does Donald Trump have dyslexia? |
Trump HAS Dyslexia. And so does Vladimir
Putin. (See below.) Dyslexia has little, or nothing, to do with
intelligence or “letter reversal.” Rather, dyslexia
describes individuals who have difficulty
reading and/or understanding
letter-based words. Dyslexia does NOT mean that those people CANNOT read or are stupid. It only means that their near vision
is sufficiently unstable, making the process of reading letter-based words
more difficult. Because they CAN learn to read if they try hard
enough, most people with dyslexia DO
learn to read, and DO NOT realize
that they have a literacy impairment.
Frequently, individuals with dyslexia may be extremely intelligent and
have difficulties only when dealing with letter-based tests. Much of the
“letter reversal” associated with dyslexia is actually a matter
of “bad guessing” of the letters and words due to an unstable
image, rather than a cerebral dysfunction. Types of visual dyslexia People with dyslexia also tend to overcompensate when they walk due to the unstable near-vision image. As they walk down a hallway their heads tend to bob from side-to-side (also known as the "Steve Jobs walk"). That physical overcompensation leads to emotional overcompensation and assertiveness with a preference for authoritarianism due to their visual instability (the "Steve Jobs style of management"). They tend to have difficulty with written academics due to that dyslexia (such as "Steve Jobs, the college dropout"), and a propensity for drug such as marijuana or alcohol to reduce the visual stress from the difficulty focusing on near-images (which partly is why Jobs went to India where weed is legal and widely available). When they have an abusive or unstable childhood they also learn to lie and bully other people to try to hide their illiteracy and incompetence. Based
upon body language, behavior, and videos showing Donald Trump in situations
where he is expected to be able to read, it
is overwhelmingly obvious that Donald Trump has dyslexia. His abusive, narcissistic behavior is
not only a collection of character flaws, but also his attempts to hide his illiteracy and his incompetence by being excessively
aggressive and/or abusive. Videos illustrating Donald Trump’s dyslexia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lz4gpBH2n-E https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybp1alenryo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzqbE7yYxE0 - - - - - - - - - - In 2016 Tony Schwartz (author of “The Art of
the Deal”) made a presentation at Oxford University eight days before the US Presidential Election. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxF_CDDJ0YI&t=2s The
most stunning part of Schwartz’s comments start at the 40 minute mark with Schwartz’s opinion that “WHEN” Trump lost the 2016
Presidential Election, Trump would become even more destructive to
America by being able to continue his criminal activities “under the
radar” and without being caught or being held accountable. =

respect” actually means you have NO RESPECT for the opinion of the other person. The phase “Trump Derangement Syndrome”
was created to accuse those who mistrust Trump as being mentally
deranged. However, the phase
actually describes the behavior and mentality of the gullible Trump
SUPPORTERS rather than the Trump critics. =
= = = = = == = = = = = = = = = = = = = HOWEVER… Vladimir Putin also has
dyslexia. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDxTHzY8aNo The above video shows Putin having a head-bobbing gait
typical of dyslexics. Putin also
had a very insecure childhood. By
joining the KGB, unlike Trump who learned as an abused child to lie to hide
his illiteracy and bully others to hide his incompetence, Putin learned to
kill people to hide his incompetence.
And he is still doing it. What also indicated Putin’s dyslexia was the
interview by Fiona Hill with Stephen Colbert where she describes being at a
Russian State Dinner and sitting next to Putin. Putin was so paranoid that he did not
eat or drink anything for fear of being poisoned. However the notes for his speech were
on cards with the letters about I inch (~2 cm) in height to make them
sufficiently legible. It is the
same thing that Trump does with printed speeches in extra-large print to try
to compensate for the visual instability of his dyslexia. =

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = The Factors of Vision and Childhood The number one motivating factor for all
biological organisms both (animal and vegetable) is a sense of control. That control may be measured by
security, money, nourishment (food), companionship, sex, possessions (toys),
a sense of purpose, or a sense of cognition (from religion, politics, or
science). Individuals
with secure (and non-abused) childhoods tend to become functional
adults. If they don't have dyslexia they tend to be symbiotic
leaders and develop their skills to a maximum. If they have an
insecure or abusive childhood they retain those anxieties into
adulthood. The lack of those facets of control tends to have individuals
compensate for that source of insecurity, and tend for them to be hyper-analytical.
If they have dyslexia and a secure childhood, they tend to have a
preference for hierarchical (structured) relationships rather than the
symbiotic (dynamic) relationships typical of non-dyslexics. What IS
significant with the overwhelming majority of Trump supporters is NOT just their dyslexia, but rather their dyslexia symptoms AND their
personal experiences from having an insecure/fear-filled or abusive
childhood. The childhood
feelings of insecurity result in an acceptance of authoritarian beliefs
and gullibility towards Trump and
other authoritarian concepts. Individuals who have dyslexia,
and an insecure/abusive childhood, tend to be manipulative and learn to lie
to hide their illiteracy and become bullies like Trump, or killers like
Putin, to hide their incompetence. Again, there are TWO key elements in voters
who are Trump supporters and both must be present: 1.
A preference for authoritarianism
due to an insecure/fear-filled/abusive (authoritarian) childhood (similar to
Trump’s) 2.
Symptoms of visual
dyslexia as either chromatic
dyslexia (high ratio of red photoreceptors) or strabismus. The
overwhelming majority of individuals who do NOT test positive for dyslexia OR who had a supportive-positive childhood tend to loath Trump,
and are incredulous that the gullible Trump supporters fail to realize the
implications of Trump’s lies, adultery, and business ineptitude and
illegalities. =

Three (simple) steps to validate the combined
effects of vision and childhood: 1. Ask those
individuals to take the following personality
preference test: These are qualities which most people believe
children should have. Every
person also thinks that some qualities are more important than others. Below are four
pairs of desirable qualities.
For each pair, ask the
individual WHICH of the two qualities in each category (either A or
B) they think is more important for a child to have?
If the
individual selects the FIRST of each pair (A) of the FOUR options it indicates that the individual has a preference
for authoritarianism. If
the individual selects the SECOND of each pair (B) of the FOUR options it indicates that the individual has a preference
for cooperation. The sample questions (above) are those of
Matthew MacWilliams, author of ON
FASCISM, in developing the “American Authoritarian Index”
as presented in his book. https://www.matthewmacwilliams.com/ 2. Use the 10
second Dyop color screening test (which should work on any electronic display) to
determine potential symptoms of dyslexia: https://www.dyop.info/documents/Color_iPad/index.html A Dyop (short
for dynamic optotype) is a spinning ring visual target used to measure visual
clarity (acuity) by creating a strobic stimulus of the photoreceptors of the
eyes. The smallest diameter Dyop
where the direction of spinning of the ring can be detected indicates visual
clarity (acuity). When the
diameter of the ring is too small to detect the ring (and gaps) as spinning,
you have a sub-acuity diameter. Make sure
that the individual is initially close enough to the images to see both the Blue-on-Black and Green-on-White rings as spinning.
Then ask the individual to move away from the screen until they CANNOT detect either of the
two segmented rings (Blue-on-Black or Green-on-White)
as
moving. Then have them move forward towards the spinning images to determine
if they see the Blue spinning ring OR the Green spinning ring first. When the identical
diameter spinning Green and Blue Dyop
rings become sufficiently small, only
one of the spinning rings will be detected as spinning
The
spinning Green-on-White and spinning Blue-on-Black Dyops of the color screening test have identical angular diameters.
By moving away from the screen,
or clicking the screen Down Arrow, those spinning Dyops appear to become
smaller. Eventually ONLY ONE of the spinning Dyops (either Green-on-White OR Blue-on-Black) can be detected as spinning.
Further reduction of the apparent Dyop diameters (sub-acuity) will have
spinning by both Dyops no longer visible. The color/contrast screening
test works the same on an iPhone as on a computer. PC/iPad/iPhone version http://www.dyop.info/documents/Swiffy/Color/index.html
SmartPhone version: http://www.dyop.info/documents/Swiffy/iPhone/index.html If they preferentially
see the Blue ring spinning first it
is photoreceptors (75% Red, 20% Green, and 5% Blue). Non-dyslexics
tend to have a more balanced Red ratio (50% Red, 45% Green, and 5% Blue).
90% indicative that they have chromatic
dyslexia and a higher ratio of Red. Ask those individuals if they voted for Trump or Biden? Vision Categories Chromatic
dyslexia is associated with the retina having a 75% Red, 20% green and 5% blue percentage of photoreceptors. Non-symptomatic (NON-dyslexics) tend to have a 50% Red, 45% Green,
and 5% blue percentage of
photoreceptors. The
higher ratio of red photoreceptors is an indicator of chromatic dyslexia. The near vision
stress associated with chromatic dyslexia indicates that the
cerebral problems result from color perception problems, since acuity is
regulated by the chromatic triangulation of light by the Red, Green, and Blue photoreceptors. Symptoms
of chromatic dyslexia, migraines, and/or epilepsy are indicated when you can ONLY
detect as spinning the smaller Blue-on-Black Dyop and NOT the identical diameter spinning Green-on-White Dyop. The test
seems to have a 90% correlation to personal or family history symptoms of chromatic dyslexia, migraines, and/or epilepsy. https://www.dyop.info/documents/Dyslexia_and_Color_Perception-SandraStark.pdf My theory is that approximately 85% of the Trump supporters
(see Pre-Election Survey below) have BOTH a fear-filled or
authoritarian childhood (as indicated by selecting the First A Option of ALL four of the
questions in variable #1) AND "chromatic dyslexia" (indicated by their
preferentially seeing the spinning “Blue” ring in
variable #2). This is NOT coincidence, but rather causation. See the anecdotal 2016 Pre-Election Survey below. =

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = The 2016 Pre-Election Survey Prior to the November 2016 Presidential
Election, I anecdotally noticed that some of the enthusiastic Trump
supporters I knew also had symptoms of chromatic
dyslexia (Red-Focused-Vision) when using the Dyop,
short for dynamic optotype, color screening test. (A Dyop is a spinning ring visual
target used to measure visual clarity by creating a strobic stimulus of the
photoreceptors of the eyes. The
smallest diameter Dyop where the direction of spinning of the ring can be
detected indicates visual clarity-acuity. When the gaps are too small to detect
the ring as spinning, you have a sub-acuity ring diameter. The color/contrast
screening test works the same on an iPhone as on a computer.) Ten second dyslexia
screening test.
To
create an anecdotal validation of “political/visual” correlation,
I went to a nearby Mall Food Court and used the color screening test on my
iPhone with randomly selected individuals. http://www.dyop.info/documents/ColorScreening-x10.swf.html
At the Mall Food Court I asked 30
"registered voters" two questions: 1.)
"As the identical diameter spinning Blue and Green rings appear to
become smaller by your moving away from the screen,
you will detect ONLY ONE of the two rings as spinning. Is it the Green-on-White or the Blue-on-Black ring that
is spinning? 2.)
“If you were to vote today, would you vote for Clinton or Trump?" In the
initial survey, 17 subjects
preferentially only saw the Blue Dyop spinning and 13 subjects preferentially only saw the Green Dyop spinning. Of the 30 subjects, 11 were Trump
supporters and 19 were Clinton supporters. (There were also six
individuals I approached who but refused to participate in the survey.) ALL 11 of the Trump supporters preferentially saw the
spinning Blue rather than the identical-diameter spinning Green. Of the 19 Clinton supporters, six of them
preferentially saw the spinning Blue and 13 of them preferentially saw the
spinning Green.
Again, NONE of the individuals preferentially seeing the
spinning Green were Trump supporters, indicating that ALL of the 11 Trump supporters had chromatic dyslexia. However, there is a childhood factor as to
the correlation of dyslexia and Trump support. I
surveyed an additional 10 subjects that I personally knew. Four of those additional subjects
were Trump supporters and six were
Clinton supporters. Of the Trump supporters, two preferentially saw the smaller spinning Blue Dyop and two of them preferentially saw the
smaller spinning Green Dyop. ALL
of the Trump supporters had a fear-filled/authoritarian childhood.
Two of the additional
Clinton supporters preferentially saw the spinning Blue and four of the additional Clinton
supporters preferentially saw the spinning Green. Those individuals who tested positive
for dyslexia and did NOT like
(or rather “despised”) Trump all had positive/nurturing
childhoods. (See below for a discussion of the
psychology of abusive relationships.) Initial color test responses for the spinning Blue/Black versus the
spinning Green/White ring
This is a very limited
test with an insufficient number of subjects, but it is something which needs
to be objectively validated with a much larger subject group. Could the
overwhelming preference for detecting the spinning Blue, indicating chromatic dyslexia, correlate to the higher percentage
of Trump supporters who possibly have dyslexia? Could
that overwhelming preference for seeing the spinning Blue correlate to the
percentage of Trump supporters who believe what they hear rather than what they read?
It may is possible that the “non-dyslexic” Green-Focused/Trump preference
individuals have strabismus dyslexia rather than chromatic
dyslexia. Chromatic dyslexia in the ranks of the
Trump supporters could also only explain the dominance in that group of the
non-college graduates (who were less motivated to go to college due to
reading difficulties), as well as their gullibility as to Trump's
dementia and lies. Very few of the Letter-Based Green Focused Vision people were Trump supporters. You will want to run
your own evaluation. Give/Take
the test yourself and with your friends. http://www.dyop.info/documents/Web_Swiffy_00FF00/index_00FF00.html =

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = There also seems to be a genetic factor as to behavior,
culture, and the ratio of red/green photoreceptors. Dyslexia is so
rampant (90%) among Native Americans that the term “dyslexia” is
viewed as a racial epithet. The term Red-Focused-Vision
(RFV)
is also a more explanatory description of the visual mechanisms of color
perception than the term ”dyslexic vision” and allows inclusion
of a broader range of symptoms such as migraines and/or epilepsy. About 80% of the
European gene pool has predominantly “Green-Focused-Vision” which could
correlate to the European use
of letter-based words from a better near image visual STABILITY. About 80%
of the Chinese gene pool has chromatic dyslexia which may correlate
to the preference for pictographic based words which are more stable at a
further distance. About 90% of
Native Americans have chromatic dyslexia as descents of the
Mongolian gene pool which crossed over the Bering Straight some 13,000 years ago. The 90% chromatic dyslexia of Native Americans correlates
to
only 80% of Hispanic Americans having chromatic dyslexia due to racial intermingling. About 80% of Native Africans have chromatic dyslexia which likely
correlates to only 60% of
African-Americans having chromatic dyslexia due to (frequently forced) racial
intermingling Because
21st century technology is letter-based, people with dyslexia have an
impediment as to developing those competitive literacy skills. chromatic dyslexia may also explain
why some African-American and Hispanic students struggle with
"letter-based" education. Learning to read (reading
“White”) frequently requires learning to read words as
pictographs, such as in the Orton-Gillingham technique. Chromatically
modulated (tinted) lenses could potentially eliminate those dyslexia,
migraine, and epilepsy symptoms. However, there are psychological and
physiological factors associated with chromatic dyslexia. People with chromatic dyslexia (Red-Focused-Vision) tend to
overcompensate due to that unstable near-vision image. As they walk
down a hallway corridor their heads tend to bob from side-to-side (known as
the "Steve Jobs walk"). That overcompensation leads to a preference
for authoritarianism due to their visual instability (known as the
"Steve Jobs style of management"). They also tend to have
difficulty with written academics (such as "Steve Jobs, the college
dropout"), and a propensity for drug such as marijuana or alcohol to
reduce the visual stress from the difficulty focusing on near-images (which
partly is why Jobs went to India where weed is legal and widely
available). What is stunning is
that almost ALL of the Donald Trump supporters likely have symptoms of chromatic dyslexia AND a fear-filled/authoritarian
childhood. |

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = Dyslexia and Information Overload There is also a psychological factor as to
dyslexia. Much like Steve Jobs
was able to do, a successful person with dyslexia learns to compensate for
the unstable image by being excessively confident. That confidence is
also reflected in the response to the photoreceptor depletion from static
stimulation as illustrated by the The Lilac Chaser Illusion. When
you fixate on the Plus (+) in the
center of the ring of Pink circles
(below), you likely see the Pink circles seeming
to rotate around that Plus. But
it is also likely that you will see a single moving Green circle which
appears to also spin around the plus. There is NO Green circle. The illusion of the Green circle is
because of the depletion and insufficient refresh of the Red photoreceptors creating
the illusion (delusion) that the depleted photoreceptor area
is a Green circle.
The metaphor of
the Lilac Chaser Illusion is that when people have too much negative stimulus
(such as from watching too much Fox News or Q-Anon drivel) they fill in the
gaps with illusions and delusions. The Lilac Chaser is a physiological
metaphor to describe the Gullibles. =

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = Possible Psychological Explanation One of
the psychological effects of dyslexia is overcompensation
in dealing with that unstable close image. Typical of that
overcompensation is when a person with chromatic
dyslexia walks down a hallway or corridor they will have their head
bobbing from side-to-side due to that visual instability (the "Steve Jobs
walk"). A person without chromatic
dyslexia will walk down the same corridor with their head moving in a
straight line. Dyslexia
overcompensation seems to also lead to a preference for authoritarian and
hierarchical relationships. That could translate into a preference for
someone projecting confidence rather than competence, and a belief in what
they hear rather than what they read. Reading letter-based words is a
collaborative process where the combination of the letters determines the word
meaning, and the combination of words is what determines the concept.
Words and letters by themselves frequently have no meaning. The meaning
comes from the context and the relationship with associated words.
NON-dyslexics have mastered the collaborative letter-to-word-to-concept
process.
Trump
supporters tend to be Fundamentalists and Authoritarian as to their
convictions. It indicates a preference
of Confidence over Competence. Clinton supporters tend to be
collaborative and more concerned with literacy and logic. It indicates
a preference of Competence over Confidence. However, unlike dyslexics who are NOT Trumps supporters, dyslexic Trump
supporter typically have a childhood history of a neglect (such as Steve Jobs) or abuse (such as Donald Trump). See the Follow-up below. Cultures
in Asia, Africa, and the Mid-east tend to be authoritarian, and tend to have 80%
of their populations having chromatic dyslexia. However,
there is also a 2500 year-old historic precedent as to reading and
authoritarian political convictions. Red-haired Socrates despised
reading and writing. What we know about Socrates is only from the
writings of his heretic pupil Plato. Because of his efforts in
attempting to lead a violent revolution to replace Athenian democracy with an
oligarchy, Socrates was sentenced to death. Socrates was also the first
"certified dyslexic" since his despising reading and writing and
hierarchal social attitude was likely due to dyslexia. Background

MacWilliams discovered that Trump supporters
seem to have a high preference for "authoritarianism." http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2016/01/donald-trump-2016-authoritarian-213533
The correlation of authoritarianism to
dyslexia symptoms is possibly from the overcompensation to an unstable
near vision image. That behavior was typified by
the head-bobbing motion of the "Steve Jobs" and
his style of management prior to getting fired by Apple. It also is typified
by Jobs' academic failures at Reed College and his forays into drugs, since
marijuana acts as a muscle relaxant to reduce the near-Dyop visual stress of chromatic dyslexia. The most recent (and stunning)
observation, however, of Trump's dyslexia was watching the
videotape (literally) of Trump's inauguration. Trump and
Pence walked down the corridor towards the inauguration podium with
their heads bobbing from side-to-side typical of someone
with dyslexia. They were followed by Obama and Biden walking down
the corridor with their heads and eyes moving in a straight line. Michelle
Obama's
and Jill Biden's heads also both moved in a straight
line. Melania's head moved in a straight line, probably
indicating her training as a model, or that she does not
have dyslexia. However, Eric and Barron Trump
both demonstrated head bobbing as they walked, while Ivanka
and Donald Junior did not. I am
still trying to understand why about a third of the people who HAVE chromatic dyslexia are NOT Trump supporters,
and are terrified of him. I think it has to do with group ethics (or
"ethics, per se") or parental training (nurturing) to be nice to
others rather than abusive. There
may be an explanation as to the childhood of the Trump supporters. Apparently dyslexics who support Trump seem to
be individuals who were either abused or neglected in
their childhood. https://www.researchgate.net/project/Dynamic-Model-of-Psychopathy http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2016/01/donald-trump-2016-authoritarian-213533 =

optimistic as to the outcome of our society WHEN Trump is removed from
office. There are too many Trump
supporters who continue to be oblivious to the lies, the immorality, the
corruption, and the bullying who will fail to recognize
that they have been conned. What I am expecting is a massive,
Trump supporting, self-appointed militia will riot similar to the riots in
India when a beloved guru was convicted of rape: http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/india-riot-guru-rape-conviction-dead-1.4263977 Fortunately our
“well-regulated militia” (the US Military, Police, and National Guard)
will be able to deal with the self-appointed “people” who think
they have the “right to bear arms” and fail to realize that their
obsession is actually that of a self-appointed terrorist organization. It will not be pleasant. Caveat: I am in the process of trying to have
my correlation academically validated.
