So you intended to display your limited vocabulary??? If so, job well done!!! In any event, whether inadvertent or otherwise, it is a FACT that you did display your limited vocabulary in an attempt at being clever . . . too clever by half, it appears. If you are not embarrassed, you should be.
BTW, I see you need help with your spelling too, the word is spelled: H-O-N-E-S-T-Y

If only your judgement was as good as your proof reading. Your comments are in the realm of trumpery.

The preferred spelling is "judgment" without the "e"

1. To choose or be in the habit of choosing as more desirable or as having more value: prefers coffee to tea.
It does not exclude the alternative.
Why are there two spellings?
Many think that the difference between judgement and judgment is that the longer version is the British spelling, whereas the shorter one is the US convention. While some claim that Noah Webster first recorded the spelling of judgment in his 1828 American Dictionary of the English Language, both sides of the pond have actually used the spelling judgment since the late 1600s.
Though judgement (with an e) has risen and fallen in popularity in British English, judgment remains the preferred spelling in British legal proceedings and appears more frequently in written work. Today, judgement is an accepted spelling in British English. But, if you stick to judgment, you won’t be judged in the UK or the US

OMG Who cares. You misspelled big deal. Why not just admit it. You have spent all day trying to convince others that you are right. It has been great entertainment. Amazing though. If you can't admit you are wrong, you are a very weak man.

I'm not trying to convince others about anything. Just presenting facts. Interpret them as you will.

curious about your spelling "thred"
one internet comment; "'thred' is no one's favorite word....its not a valid Scrabble word.
However "judgement" is worth 20 stand-alone scrabble points.

Fits perfectly, then, with the trumpery theme.
A lot of bluster and hot air - little to no content.

trumpians ignoring the truth.
if trump paid attention to the truth, facts and scientist he would have saved countless lives and curtail this troubling deficit.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The federal budget deficit hit an all-time high of $3.1 trillion in the 2020 budget year, more than double the previous record, as the coronavirus pandemic shrank revenues and sent spending soaring.
The Trump administration reported Friday that the deficit for the budget year that ended on Sept. 30 was three times the size of last year's deficit of $984 billion. It was also $2 trillion higher than the administration had estimated in February, before the pandemic hit.
you do realize judgement is a word, right, even though you and yours would have it otherwise. stuff like this pulls us all down. wake up!!!
