Etiquette



DP Etiquette

First rule: Don't be a jackass. Most people are good.

Other rules: Do not attack or insult people you disagree with. Engage with facts, logic and beliefs. Out of respect for others, please provide some sources for the facts and truths you rely on if you are asked for that. If emotion is getting out of hand, get it back in hand. To limit dehumanizing people, don't call people or whole groups of people disrespectful names, e.g., stupid, dumb or liar. Insulting people is counterproductive to rational discussion. Insult makes people angry and defensive. All points of view are welcome, right, center, left and elsewhere. Just disagree, but don't be belligerent or reject inconvenient facts, truths or defensible reasoning.

Donald Trump has a fan, well, sort of.................

 

Woody Allen praises President Trump as actor, wants to direct 'Celebrity' star again

 
 President Donald Trump might be a polarizing leader with a day job, but Woody Allen would love to direct "the very good actor" in a movie again.

When just a famous New York City real-estate developer, Trump appeared in Allen's 1998 film "Celebrity," starring Charlize Theron and Leonardo DiCaprio.

"He was a pleasure to work with, and a very good actor, and very polite," Allen said, speaking on Bill Maher's Club Random podcast, in a new episode out Sept. 1. "He did everything correctly and had a real flair for show business. If he would let me direct him now that he's president, I think I could do wonders."

Allen, 89, stressed he was not praising Trump politically.

"I’m a Democrat. I voted for Kamala Harris. I take issue with (Trump) on 95% of the things, maybe 99%," he said. "But as an actor, he was very good. He was convincing and had a charismatic quality."


I think the jokes will write themselves, wouldn't you agree?
