Donald 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. People
with dyslexia, due to their unstable near-vision image, also
tend to overcompensate when they walk.
As they walk down a hallway their heads will tend to bob from
side-to-side (also known as the "Steve Jobs walk"). That physical overcompensation frequently leads
to emotional overcompensation (the Dunning Kruger Effect) and
assertiveness with a preference for authoritarianism due to their visual
instability (aka, "Steve Jobs style of management"). They frequently have difficulty with
written academics (such as "Steve Jobs, the college dropout"), or a
disposition for drug use such as marijuana or alcohol to reduce the visual
stress from the difficulty focusing on near-images. (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. = = = = = = == = = =
= = = = = = = = = = Ironically, the phrase “with all due 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 the maximum.
If they have an insecure or abusive childhood, they retain those anxieties
into adulthood. The lack of those facets of control tends to help
individuals compensate for that source of insecurity and tends for them to be
hyper-analytical. If they have dyslexia and a secure childhood, they
tend to prefer 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 Near Vision Stress (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 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% indicate that they have Near Vision Stress and a higher ratio of Red. Ask those individuals if they voted for Trump or Biden? Vision Categories Near Vision Stress 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 Near Vision Stress. The near vision stress associated with Near Vision Stress 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 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 Near Vision Stress, 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 stressed or authoritarian childhood (as indicated by their selecting the A Option of ALL four of the questions in variable #1) AND "Near Vision Stress" (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 Near Vision Stress 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 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 Near Vision Stress . 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 stressful/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 Near Vision Stress (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 Near Vision Stress, 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 be possible that the “non-dyslexic” Stable Near Image Trump-preferring individuals have strabismus
dyslexia rather than Near
Vision Stress . Near Vision Stress 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 Stable Near Image 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 Near Vision Stress 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
“Stable Near Image” 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 Near Vision Stress which may correlate to
the preference for pictographic based words which are more stable at a
further distance. About 90% of Native Americans have Near Vision Stress as descents of the
Mongolian gene pool which crossed over the Bering Strait approximately
13,000 years ago. The 90% Near Vision Stress of Native
Americans correlate to only 80% of Hispanic Americans
having Near Vision Stress due to racial intermingling. About 80% of
Native Africans have Near Vision Stress which correlates to
only 60% of
African-Americans having Near Vision Stress due to (frequently forced) racial intermingling Because
21st century technology is letter-based, people with dyslexia have an impediment
to developing competitive literacy skills. Near Vision Stress may also explain why African-American and Hispanic students frequently
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 Near Vision Stress. People
with Near Vision Stress 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 ALL of the Donald Trump supporters likely have symptoms of Near Vision Stress AND a stressful/authoritarian childhood. |

= = = = = Dyslexia and
Information Overload There is also a psychological factor 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. = = = = = = = = = =

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 Near Vision Stress 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 Near Vision Stress 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 Near Vision Stress. 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 information http://www.dyop.info/documents/2015_ARVO_Poster-TEXT.pdf http://www.dyop.info/documents/Chase-Accommodation-v5b.pdf |

= = = = = Observations on
Authoritarianism In 2016 Matthew 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 from the
overcompensation to an unstable near vision image. That
behavior was typified by the head-bobbing motion of “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 Near Vision Stress. 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, 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 Near Vision Stress are NOT Trump supporters and are
terrified of him. It likely 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. 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 = = = = = = = = = =

OBSERVATIONS (Comments
regarding the events of January 6, 2021.) The
following comments (below) regarding the behavior of Trump supporters were
composed in 2018. but may
have “predicted” the events of January 6, 2021 in the Washington DC Capital. - - - - - - - - - -
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - I am NOT very 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. Any
assistance as to additional validation, OR even valid academic disproval,
would be greatly appreciated. Copyright©2023 Dyop® Vision
