1. That letter will be placed in a file next to those by King George III

[dewsgirl]

2. LoL

[smirkymonkey]

6. He makes King George III look like the model of mental health by comparison.

He is out of his cotton-candy mind. And he has access to nuclear weapons. Sleep well, everyone.

[dewsgirl]

8. I know..

[paleotn]

11. What!? What?!

[BigmanPigman]

19. He's "not mad, just nervous".

[Laffy Kat]

38. That was satisfying to watch. nt

[paleotn]

47. Really good film.

[The_jackalope]

3. And the guy who wrote it has nukes.

This is some frightening shit.

[samnsara]

4. just wait til after the vote tomarrow!

[Blue_true]

26. Yeah, Trump is going to blow his shit. It's just hope the nuke codes are hidden. nt

[maxsolomon]

5. President Solipsist.

He has no language skills but the subjective and the hyperbolic.

Of course, he doesn't need anything but that with a voting base of gullible marks.

[ResistantAmerican17]

12. Well played Maxsolomon

I can count the times I’ve seen any derivative of the term solipsism on..... who am I kidding? First time I can remember. And a PERFECT word—-his reality is the only reality. He alone creates it, defines it, believes it, and inanely lives in it.

[Claritie Pixie]

17. Well said! He is the perfect example of solipsism.

[leftieNanner]

7. More like

A gaping maw. Remember that pit with teeth in star wars episode 6? Outside of Jabba the Hut's place?

[Volaris]

23. The Sarlaac. Lol that's actually a pretty good descriptor...hes the Sarlaac pit of american politics

[leftieNanner]

40. Isn't DU wonderful

That you know that!

[rzemanfl]

9. Careful keyboarding on both your parts.

Thanks for that.

[Baked Potato]

10. His letter made him look worse

No surprises.

[yardwork]

13. It IS peering into the mouth of madness.

[Shaddox]

14. Damn, dews. I'm kicking this because this is the most appropriate use of the phrase ever.

[dewsgirl]

15. Thank you.

[Shaddox]

16. Back at you 😀. In these times, I appreciate a cogent observation.

[C_U_L8R]

18. Future generations will look at that letter

and gasp... WTF!!

[TheFourthMind]

20. Madness is thinking Trump could put six pages of anything but blank paper together. n/t

[Blue_true]

29. My thoughts also. That letter was written with his approval.

The syntax and spelling was far beyond what Trump seems capable of, as is the number of pages. At best, Trump would have done a few disconnected sentences written in sharpee.

[DENVERPOPS]

30. Amen to that FM

This was the writings of the New Republican Party, which is truly even more frightening.....

Trump couldn't have written that if he had a month to do so, even with ten ghost writers.

WASF

[erronis]

21. Many more posts on the same. Who is his guest/ghost writer?

[dewsgirl]

27. It has to be him, it reads like several tweets strung together.

[Blue_true]

31. I doubt it was him. Even in it's insanity, the letter was far better than what Trump is

capable of.

[dewsgirl]

33. He at least dictated it. God, I hope we aren't dealing with several

mentally deficient wackadoos.

[Blue_true]

35. He is surrounded by unpatriotic enablers, each with his or her own goal in mind. nt

[Kid Berwyn]

22. A Crazy Moron

Who believes he is a Prince

He acts like he has no idea he’s in Putin’s pocket.

It’s an act. Trump knows.

[gibraltar72]

24. !!!!!!!!@######&&&!!!!!?

[Evolve Dammit]

25. Like a caged animal... with nuclear codes. I'm not a prayerful type, but in this case?

[dewsgirl]

28. Me either.🙏🙏🙏

[Aussie105]

32. Haven't read the letter, but tell me,

am I on the right track assuming the following? (Saves time, really.)

1. I didn't do anything wrong.
2. I may have, but it's ok, I'm Donald!
3. You Dems just made stuff up.
4. Nancy is picking on me.
5. I didn't do anything wrong.
6. I may have, but it's ok, I'm Donald!

Let me know if I got that correct. Six pages of Trump's raving lunatic verbal BS is too much for my sanity to cope with, so help me out here.

[dewsgirl]

34. All of that, but it had a new level of unhinged to it.

[Totally Tunsie]

37. It's really so much more than his usual blurb,

and definitely worth taking the time to read for the humor. I suggest a nice glass of
Pinot Grigio to savor as you read.

36. LOL! When I first glanced at your subject line, I read "peering" as "peeing."! nt

[dewsgirl]

43. LOL😆

[tanyev]

39. A tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

[DFW]

42. It's scary that they were willing to send it at all.

That means that they were expecting a positive reaction to it from their supporters, which makes their supporters one extremely scary group of people. Either they don't see that, or it's exactly what they intended. Neither scenario is a very reassuring commentary about the mental state of many of our fellow citizens.

[dewsgirl]

45. Hmmm...it came out yesterday Dimitry Firtash's lawyer, was

the source of the million dollars to Lev Parnas. The dots that connect Trump and the GOP to Putin are more connected every single day. This could have been a distraction, I find it hard to believe those surrounding him didn't realize how utterly unhinged the letter is.

[DFW]

46. That's Washington for you

People there either get out and listen to the world around them, or they enclose themselves in a bubble, and think no one else on the outside hears anything different from what they themselves hear, including when it's just them babbling.

I'm sure no one involved in the composition of the letter gave the slightest thought to how anyone other than themselves would react to it. If the reaction is negative outside of MSNBC, the WaPo and the NYT, their amazement will be quite genuine.

[DeminPennswoods]

44. Reads like the Festivus Airing of Grievances

to me.
