The Fake News gets crazier and more dishonest every single day. Amazing to watch as certain people covering me, and the tremendous success of this administration, have truly gone MAD! Their Fake reporting creates anger and disunity. Take two weeks off and come back rested. Chill!

(4,341 posts)Unfortunately, 31% of people love him and refuse to hear or accept the guy is nothing but an incompetent buffoon. Even when the proof comes that he is working with Russia against their own country, they will still love him. Remember the two guys with t-shirts that said "I rather be a Russian than a Democrat" or something like that?

(10,850 posts)said pretty much the same thing. A lot of these True Believers are saying it's better to be Pro-Russian than a libtard Democrat. Falls right into Trumpski claiming that China has more integrity than Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer.
Trumpski and his followers are deluded and dangerous. Treason weasels.

(32,908 posts)The TrumpHumpers you've described here were all Limbaugh/hate radio fans for the last 30 years.
All prime stupid, then Trump came along and grabbed the low-hanging fruit.

(10,850 posts)My own mother in her later years was a Limbaugh fan. She didn't have a lot to keep her busy, so listening to Limbaugh's trash talk was a favorite past time. And she believed him. We had several heated conversations about her positions/opinions, but then I gave it up. The surprising thing is she was from a very Democratic, union-supporting family; my aunt was a union contract negotiator in Atlantic City, my grandfather a union/Democratic activist. I think the 'fear quotient' spoke to her in her later years, that and blaming others for her own unhappiness.
But Limbaugh and his hard-right colleagues definitely primed the pump for a Trumpster debacle.

(32,908 posts)... And yet my Dad always voted straight-ticket GOP. I think my Mom was a Dem but she didn't discuss politics very much. I grew up in the 50's and 60's, and I remember thinking Eisenhower was a pretty good President. But there was never a good Republican after him, he was the last one. I can't understand how anyone would vote for a GOP candidate, especially not after this.

(11,746 posts)They are bad people and I do not wish to associate with them. But it will be interesting to see how many stay on a sinking ship. I suspect that when it gets bad enough we will see some surprises. Not good surprises, mind you. Surprises as in we have not considered possibilities and thus don't expect.

(9,011 posts)But I get what you mean
It's just hard to tsake in, from day to day, just how far off he is.
I see this as a slightly different angle, trying to belittle the press and portray them as being hysterical. Probably been made aware he has been sounding a little scared in past tweets. But he actually is staying on message as he has done for 2 years. Attack, discredit and belittle the press and the Mueller team. Nothing new to see here as far as I can tell.

(12,693 posts)However, if I were Nancy Pelosi, I would already have made it quite publically clear wouldn't invite him to give a public address that will turn into one of his political fundraisers where he can spew his lies and self-aggrandizing statements. After all, a publicized SotU is really just a courtesy. Just let him know it would be easier on him just to have his lackeys type up a report and send it to the house rather than have him come to an event not hosted by supporters or sycophants who want something from him; an event where he's not going to be appreciated or get any applause - and most of the attendees will be fact-checking everything he says. Who knows, they might be driven to say things that might make him look foolish or criminal in real time when all the Networks are there broadcasting to the nation.
The House can receive his required public report and submit it to the public; and he can have another one of his "rallys" to yell about how nasty the Dems are for not being like his criminal buddies or followers. He's going to do it anyway.

(28,270 posts)There is no other reality for Trump and his cultists.
Their total rejection of observable, proven reality is a close enough definition of insanity to me.

(23,367 posts)He acts nuts...he behaves in a shocking manner but I dont think he is crazy or demented. He is a malignant narcissist who has never been accountable to anyone but himself. I believe he feels persecuted because he is now, in fact, going to be held accountable. He is a liar and a grifter and hes always been a liar and a grifter...nothing has changed. He has always been rewarded for his outrageous behaviors by the press and tv executives and he cannot process why this is changing. Hes a stunted, selfish nasty human being and the people who still protect and defend him are either personally lacking, dirty or both. AND, we aint seen nothin yet.

(44 posts)I am getting crazier and more dishonest every single day. Amazing to watch as this madness covers me, and feeds the delusions of grandeur that distort my perceptions related to the success of this administration. I have truly gone MAD! The anger and disunity that results from my words and actions is just a reflection of the internal rage and disorganization that I experience inside my head. I guess the external world that I create can be viewed like a Rorschach Card and used as a tool to gain access to the workings of my inner world.
I need to take two weeks off, leave the White House, where I have been secluded for the past month and spend some time with my wife, Melania, and my son, (whose name escapes me for the moment) and then come back rested.
And I also need a Chill Pill!
