IMO the country has failed. Wee seeing what we historically see in Africa and the mid east and now eastern Europe. Judges and politicians fear for their lies. Arrned rebellion in the capitol. There was a plot to kidnap the Wisconsin governor. Armed militia zealots.

Militias gave been around for a long time.

Don't call them militias. They are cos-playing children who didn't get their way and are now having a tantrum.

From what I can tell they are serious people with a purpose. It is not kids playing roles.
 
From testimony today I still can't tell if Trump is just crazy or crazy kike a fox.
 
That is the real issue, he had support in the WH and in congress for a coup. Republicans are in denial and not speaking out.

Throwing insults is part of the overall problem.

Nope. Not even remotely. And if I wanted to say something insulting with regards to Trump I'd say something like "Grown Up Joffrey" or "Incest Porn Star Wannabee". Trump being given sycophantic praise and being treated with respect he never ever earned is the sole problem. Me calling him a cunt doesn't change the landscape one single bit.

Part and parcel of the overall degradation of a civil society.

Name a president who was never obscenely described by some of the citizenry.

After that can you please explain how people saying please and thank you is a higher priority or even related to systemic corruption, fascism and fucking nepotism?

Thank you.

I think that someone can only be as successful and consistently dumb-seeming and effectively evasive as that with a compartment being active. I think something in Cheeto knows, but and the reason he seems so dumb is because he is, and all the "smart" is happening where not even "he" can see it.

Oh for sure he is comparmentalizing. But he is totally aware that he's doing that, and in fact reveling in the fact that nobody can force him to stop. He can go on falsely claiming a stolen election for as long as he's not arrested for doing that (which he knows he won't be), and if he can corrupt enough politicians and voters in the next 28 months, he can again ascend to the throne, pardon everyone kissing The Ring and live happily ever after, sucking Putin's dick to his heart's content.

I'm not so sure to assume awareness. Either way, it's a problem and needs to be put on felony charges.

Nobody can inhabit Dolt45’s brain, and lucky for all, we don’t have to in order to get where we need to go on this.

I’ve been right about Trump’s actions, predicted he’d never concede defeat regardless of margin, wouldn’t allow a peaceful transfer of power and a lot more at which our RW friends scoffed and mocked. Accurate enough to convince myself that my read is basically correct: Trump knows what he’s doing including the benefits of having a lot of people think he is crazy.

Well, my point is that the easiest explanation is that it's a little of both: insane and evil.

It's a certain kind of perfect storm.

I don't think it's possible to get that close to sticking the landing on "antichrist" and actually be aware.

The fuck cleared out a church, to do a photoshoot with an upside down Bible stolen from those helping people previously.

It takes a shocking lack of awareness, is what I'm saying.. a stunning blindness that can only exist in the presence of a controlling agency to that blindness.

I'm not a "believer" but it doesn't take belief to understand when someone is being fucking evil, and to the point where something is seriously broken in them.

The problem is that such people should be put in secure psychiatric care; But instead the American people, culture, and political system put this one in the Oval Office.

The Loudermilk video.


I was informed the first guy in the video with the "flag pole" is acrually carrying a bang stick. It's used on sharks or alligators before you pull them into the boat, basically a shotgun shell that goes off when poked into the animal.

Frankly I see little difference between these guys and the guy that wanted to kill SCJ Kavenaugh.

Really? The guy who was arrested for threats against Kavanaugh called police to tell them that he wanted to Jill himself and to kill Kavanaugh. He’s clearly mentally I’ll but not so far gone as to not realize what he was doing was wrong—he called the police. I hope he gets the help he needs.

The capitol krew, on the other hand, are disaffected, dissatisfied and easily duped idiots who belong to a cult and were willing to assassinate the VP and possibly several members of Congress to ingratiate themselves to their dear leader, who regarded them as less than dirt beneath their feet. Certainly a degree of mental illness is surely involved but they did try to overturn an election and the nation.

Even if I liked or respected Kavanaugh, there’s a huge difference in intent and scale and scope.

I don't believe that Trump is crazy. He's evil and would be just like Putin if he could acquire the power.

Yeah, I’m not sure if narcissism and psychopathy are the same thing as needs treatment in a mental health facility. In this case, I think it’s more needs confinement in an institution for the criminally insane. What Trump has/is is not curable or fixable. He’s had a taste of power and now he’s too dangerous to be allowed around other people.
