Is SHITLER feigning stupidity like The Oddfather, really smart and calling all the shots?!1

Last edited Sat Feb 3, 2018, 10:39 PM - Edit history (1)

One of Joy REID's guests this morning really summed it up: That all the brazilian suspicious activities involving others in the SHITLER mob all lead back to SHITLER, that he has it ingrained to surround himself with Yes-people who are criminals and mercenaries, none of whom listen to their lawyers.

All SHITLER ever says is just a blanket denial, not a reasoned argument or defense, just "no-collusion/obstruction". Could it all be a bad acting job attempting to portray "stupidity" while actually calling all the shots? Or is that too smart for him to pull off because he's too obvious? Vincent "The Chin" GIGANTE, a.k.a. "The Oddfather" pulled off the act for 30 years before admitting it was an act.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vincent_Gigante
Vincent Louis Gigante March 29, 1928 – December 19, 2005), also known as "Chin", was a New York Italian-American mobster in the American Mafia who was boss of the Genovese crime family from 1981 to 2005. ....
... For the better part of 30 years, Gigante feigned insanity in an effort to throw law enforcement off his trail. Dubbed "The Oddfather" and "The Enigma in the Bathrobe" by the press, Gigante often wandered the streets of Greenwich Village in his bathrobe and slippers, mumbling incoherently to himself, in what Gigante later admitted was an elaborate act to avoid prosecution. He was indicted on federal racketeering charges in 1990, but was determined to be mentally unfit to stand trial. In 1997 he was tried and convicted of racketeering and was given a 12-year sentence. Facing new charges in 2003, he pleaded guilty and admitted that his supposed insanity was an elaborate effort to avoid prosecution.[2] He died while incarcerated in 2005 at the United States Medical Center for Federal Prisoners.

He ain't invincible, peeps: He "almost died" when the Access H'wood tape surfaced


Here's what I don't get: We keep hearing how he fumes, explodes, is FURIOUS, whatever, behind the scenes then out here in public he seems implacable. When he's "interviewed" by a friendly, he's chatty and yearning and like a puppy dog. What mood swings are these?!1 So Billy Shrub took all the life changing hits over the Access Hollywood tape, while SHITLER looked like nothing fazed him. Yet now we hear from one of SHITLER's co-predators that SHITLER was really really affected by the H'wood tape. In the interests of transparency we need to see the behind-the-scenes SHITLER in public!1

Steve Wynn: Donald Trump ‘Almost Died’ Over ‘Access Hollywood’ Tape
In leaked comments of his pleas for support after claims of sexual misconduct, Steve Wynn confided to employees how his buddy in the White House dealt with his own bombshell.


.... According to Wynn, Trump talked about how difficult he found the election campaign—saying he wouldn’t have done it if he’d known how hard it would be — and addressed the Access Hollywood tape that nearly brought down his campaign a month before Election Day. ....

.... Talking about the Access Hollywood leak, Wynn recalled Trump saying: “It was so scary. When those tapes came out, I almost died.” ....

A narcissist personality NEVER feels remorse or shame for anything because in their mirror they see a perfect human.

The rapid mood swings are a common symptom of someone suffering from a degenerative brain condition.

And while Trump can fake a superficial charm when his ass is being kissed by the likes of Piers Morgan or Sean Hannity, his true scowling asshole self shows up quickly when the questions get tough.

There is no method to his madness. Trump is a know-nothing bigot who was voted in by (mostly) other bigots. Take away his "Mexicans are rapists" rant and his campaign doesn't last two weeks.

Every thing he touched, including a casino. Were he not born into money, he'd probably be dead by now because of stupidity.

Melania.

Think about that. He has to put up a front that all is well and good on the home front, meanwhile, she's turning away in public.

He won't be able to handle that and the legal agenda in front of him.

In short, he's bancrupted his personal life.
