I’m not sure how mental institutions pour into a county. Do they come on flatbed trucks with a WIDE LOAD sign attached? Regardless of logistics I truly wish they WERE pouring in, because almost half of all Americans are bat-shit crazy. And as far as all of the terms Trump has, the only ones I give a shit about are the back-to-back prison terms that he’s going to serve. He needs to fuck all the way off.

Don’t forget the prisons that are pouring in right alongside the mental institutions! God forbid. He really is losing it BIGLY.

This dude is easily the world's most useful idiot. There's absolutely no reason anyone this stupid and insane should have any power, any sway, any love from the court of public opinion. Somehow though he's got this hypnotic effect on idiots that make them jump on any sword to save him.

But for a cookie and two compliments, you too can talk Red Light Special Rapunzel into doing your bidding as long as it's evil or racist. Preferably both though.

And once he forgets Ivanka is his daughter he'll do anything for her number.

It does beg the question why UNAVISION gave him such unfiltered billing, and blocked Biden. That is a move that I hope the head of Unavision lives to regret. Then, Anchor Jorge Ramos of Unavision Speaks Truth to Power!

Jorge’s daughter, Paolo, is as incredible as he is. The pronunciation of Univision in Spanish is U-nah-viz-eon. I was not aware of that until Paolo said it in an interview on MSNBC.

I don't know much about him or his family except that he is a hero. It is not surprising to hear that he has raised a great person. I have watched world cup soccer on Unavision, so I knew how it was pronounced. Not having cable, I can only watch soccer for free on Spanish language stations. Even though I don't know that much Spanish, everyone can understand Go-o-o-o-o-l, and Ariba, ariba. Oley too! So, I am set. I don't need the commentary because I can see the action, and read the score. Still, not liking to support it for that.

I remember after Trump was elected there were psychiatrists positing that Trump was unstable and that's when the buzz started about Trump being a malignant narcissist. When these same psychiatrists were questioned as to how they could make a diagnosis without ever sitting down and talking to Trump, they responded that psychiatrists go by how a patient like Trump ACTS, not by his words, because they don't tell their doctors the truth.

Those psychologists were correct in their assessment. My ex has NPD. Once you've experienced someone like that, you can pick them out upon first meeting, or in the case of tfg, seeing and listening to them on TV among other outlets.

I hear ya', Koko. After watching a couple of Trump rallies in 2015 I immediately saw that Trump was a sociopathic narcissist because my father was one. My skin CRAWLED.

Whether I survived intact without permanent damage is still debatable. I have a tendency to ventilate my anger on rightwing forums like USMessageBoard.com, the largest assembly of Trump ass-kissers on the 'net. If you know of one more rabid or larger, please do tell. I'm on "not-Twitter", too and love to use extremely foul language when addressing any post from Marjorie Trailer Queen, The Beetlejuice Groper and company.

A lot of this was obvious to anyone who has studied psychology, but very importantly, he is surrounded by people just like him. In fact, this personality disorder is so rampant in the Republican Party that it is almost like a job requirement. If it is normal behavior, is it a disfunction? If it does not interfere in them keeping a job, and having friends, is it a pathology? They seem to think not. In fact, a lot of the American voting public seems to think not. Why is that? Because they suffer from it too, or they are unable to recognize pathology because they are so surrounded by people like that, that it is normal to them?

Yale is the university where the Frat boys say, "No means yes, and yes means anal!" This has been documented in several sources. Yale also graduated the not very bright Bushes, known as Legacies. So yes, Yale should be ashamed of themselves for so much, but Yale remains shameless.

That's why he is a Republican....because Texas is all about Big Oil. He's following the money.

The money that is destroying the planet for our species to live on as well as most others. So, killing off your lifeline is not bright! Counting on others to undo what you are doing is not bright. What if that does not happen. Just because he might suffer less in a near the tropical zone state, does not mean he will not suffer at all. Let us hope his air conditioning goes out since he makes laws like no outdoor workers should be able to take drink breaks during over an over 114 degree F heat wave. The man deserves to suffer from his own laws. And, hopefully, Big Oil is not going to be big elsewhere.

David Graham in "The Atlantic" writes that at rallies Trump is continually mixing up the Biden and Obama administrations and said he beat Obama "in an election everyone said couldn't be won." ?!?!?!?! He also said he beat "Bush", the leader "who got us into the Middle East." when he was actually referring to Jeb Bush. And also said that Kim Jong Un "leads 1.4 billion people" confusing him with Xi Jinping. Trump needs to be dragged off the stage and put in a rubber room.

steve robertshaw's avatar

Yes, this is exactly why our major media's freaking out about daily 'polls' being conducted on a mostly tuned-out and apathetic public long before there are even two official nominees is so pointless. In America, 90% of the voters start paying attention to the presidential election when they start seeing the endless TV ads around Sept. or Oct., when the two parties have their two candidates. That's when it might be useful to check in with the polls. As you can tell, I don't have a lot of confidence in America possessing a "well informed electorate"!

I think a lot of people repeat what they heard on a podcast. I know someone who even acts like a certain famous podcaster while repeating it and doesn’t even acknowledge that he’s just repeating it almost word for word. It would be funny if it wasn’t really happening. It also reminds me of watching SNL in the late seventies after smoking a dobie, then looking over at the person next to you after a skit and asking: What, wait a minute, what did they say?

I truly think the reason all republican "leaders" are so scared of trump that they say the stupidest things is that when putin handed him the presidency, he had a party for all r. "leaders" in which he provided drugs, alcohol and hookers, along with rooms that had cameras. If they don't say the right thing, or if they turn on him, he reminds them of the party and what he's got on them.
