"tactical empathy" sounds like "manipulation" to me.

It sounds like narcissistic abuse, to be honest.

Yup, this isn’t empathy. Empathy isn’t a strategy. This on the other hand is how a sociopath thinks.

men are so pathetic oh my god

The same logic as dude wipes. My god, were run by idiots.

See, he doesn't know what empathy means. It's not soft & squishy. Empathy is the ability to understand and share the feelings of another. It's not sympathy or pity.

And, I find it sad that the supposedly popular Trump thinks soft & squishy is a bad thing when this guy pretty much said the opposite & probably would have won if he was able to run. He'd probably win today if they would let him run, even at his advanced age. What is wrong with people?

Dems choosing this over a philosophy of militant empathy says everything there is to say about them.

And it’s still wrong. Trump doesn’t understand others’ feelings, he’s just itch-scratch animal. His bizarre animal rage is instinctive behavior that has difficulty noticing other people.
