It’s Time to Talk About Donald Trump’s Logorrhea

Susan B. Glasser writes about Donald Trump’s appearance at the World Economic Forum, in Davos, and the fact that he’s been talking even more than he used to.

A quotation from Bill Watterson

CALVIN: I used to hate writing assignments, but now I enjoy them. I realized that the purpose of writing is to inflate weak ideas, obscure poor reasoning, and inhibit clarity. With a little practice, writing can be an intimidating and impenetrable fog!

Bill Watterson (b. 1958) American cartoonist
Calvin and Hobbes (1993-02-11)

A quotation from Moliere:

«
CÉLIMÈNE: Yes, he’s a wonderful talker, who has the art of telling you nothing in a great harangue. There’s never any point to what he says; ‘t is only noise to which we listen.

#showerthought #fep #ap -- make "character count" enforceable by the endpoints' preference, as a convention or "formally".

i.e. if you, as a reader, have your #MTU (minimum talking unit, j/k lol) set to 1500 characters, longer messages than that will be invisible to you.

A _sender_ (like me, right now) can set (advertise) their MTU:

I write long posts -> 9000
haiku and terser -> 500
bin_puzls -> 64

@RoLarenRED57 Trump taking a dump in a prison cell? #TIL #Logorrhea and #Diarrhea mouth have much in common.

Today I learned a new word. #Logorrhea - and an MSNBC commentator thinks Trump has it or does it, and is incapable of staying quiet even at the risk of jail.
