Well... it's Trump... again. #47, here we go.

Message on U.S. Forest Service websites blamed ‘Radical Left Democrats’ amid government shutdown

Politicized messages appeared beside beautiful landscape photos on federal websites.

“The Radical Left Democrats shutdown the government. This government website will be updated periodically during the funding lapse for mission critical functions. President Trump has made it clear he wants to keep the government open and support those who feed, fuel, and clothe the American people,”

Feed, fuel and clothe? Not only is that not true in any sense of the words, "fuel and clothe"? They pull that from a North Korean Government website?

Given Trump's frequent inability to utter a comprehensible sentence, my guess is that grammar isn't high on their priority list, but unabashed partisan propaganda through every medium possible is despite its blatant violation of the Hatch Act.

Observing that Trump is not beholden to any law either civil nor criminal is nothing new. This latest violation of laws and norms simply adds to the long list of the same. However, this one takes it up a notch. The festering boil just got a little bigger.

The Republicans keep lying about the Dems wanting to give free health care to undocumented immigrants when nothing could be further from the truth. The Dems just want to extend the subsidies that Biden gave to those who get their healthcare via the so called affordable health care act, aka Obama care. The monthly charge for this will double or almost double in most cases, making it unaffordable for most of those insured, leaving them without insurance.

These liars are the so called Christians who obviously don't give s shit about what their Jesus actually said about helping the poor and healing the sick etc. Regardless if Jesus was a real person or a myth, the conservative Christians have become the most. hateful bunch of assholes in the US, with few exceptions. I've read so many articles bout how they want to establish a White Christian country that it's sickening. Jesus wasn't even white for that matter. How did these people become so racist?

Born and raised that way, mostly.

That Trump has lost his mind and other things...

Sorry, I forgot about the rule against posting vids and links without anything else.

I can't watch video. That's why I asked.

You can't?? You've told us that you WILL not watch videos, but I thought this was some sort of religious objection. Even a Jew will drive to the E.R. on Saturday if it's the only way to save a life. Your disability goes beyond religion? Can you listen to a video with your eyes closed? Have you tried betahistine maleate? I take 15mg every day.

Anyway, I came here to recommend listening (no need to "watch") to the first 39 seconds of this video and it was only by coincidence that yours was the previous sentence in the thread.

Our Fuhrer in a single word.

No new information, but it's pleasant to have our understanding confirmed by two of the people (Sam Nunberg and Michael Wolff) that understand Trump best.

Just watch the first 39 seconds. After that we descend into Fergie's flaws, etc.

He is in Australia, so maybe not able to stream the video.

He is in a location where making any noise is contraindicated (it is 2:25am here, people are sleeping).

He also doesn't owe anyone an explanation as to why he would prefer them to comply with the rules of the forum.

When you are better able, it's worth the 15 minutes.
I rarely bother with such videos, but I watched this one. It's an extremely good call out of the current mess, solidly explaining why Trump appears to be insane to reasonable people.

Seems right but … Occam sez it’s because he’s insane.

Not insane. He is dumb, he is a sociopath, and he has generally gotten away with whatever bullshit he has put forth. He has OJ SImpson disease, in that he feels untouchable. Thanks to SCOTUS and the GOP, he is.

Many psychiatrists have been saying since his first term that Trump has symptoms of serious mental illnesses and based on caring for people with serious mental illnesses for year, I think he's seriously mentally ill. He has symptoms os malignant narcissism, psychopathy and dementia. He can't help being a horrible, destructive person but that's what he is. He'd be harmless if he was in an assisted living facility or confined to his home with a sign on his desk that said President Trump, and the people caring for him could humor him, but somehow too many voters ended up voting for a very sick, incompetent person to lead what was once called the greatest nation on earth. There may never have been a greatest nation, but we are heading toward being the worst nation thanks to MAGA.

The fact that the MAGAs in SCOTUS and Congress bow to him is even more sickening their orange master. It's one thing to be deranged but quite another to comply with the wishes of a deranged leader who is destroying a country. That's just how I see it.

China's GDP is like $18.5 trillion.
Maybe he meant $17 billion.
But, no he has repeated it many times.

Mr Salazar ruled Portugal from 1932 until 1968 when he suffered a series of health problems and was replaced as head of state by Marcelo Caetano.

Until his death in 1970, aides gave Mr Salazar a fake version of the newspaper Diario do Noticias each day which carried fictional stories to make it seem like he was still in charge.

Each night, the editor would create a special edition of the newspaper - just for Mr Salazar - to remove any reference to Mr Caetano and his government.

I hope a court finds that to be the case some day.
ETA: isn’t sociopathy a subset of insanity?
Or is sociopathy among the mental health “issues” exempt from that description?
If so … WHY?
You can bet that if that becomes Trump’s last line of defense, it will be.

Gotta love this guy:

I'm impressed that Lawrence can still do this after all this time. Night after night of screaming into the void. Like there is some sliver of hope he sees that I don't.
Or it's a paycheck.

Being a sociopath isn't the end of the world. It is the addition of the malignant narcissism that creates a concoction of dangerous proportions.
