not having the ego stroking at all, he might do a live remote projected onto a huge screen a la 1984.

He’s desperate to hold onto his MAGATs. He doesn’t dare not hold the rallies.

him protecting himself from a nasty virus. Heck he could live stream his BS online and market it as protcting THEM and they'd eat it up.

Trump feeds on the adoration so I'm sure he'd find a way to get his 'fix' and as someone who really does believe that he could do anything and his cult followers would still worship him, and sadly all too many still would.

It’s a double edged sword for him.

Isn’t it obvious that he craves adulation every moment of his life? That indicates insecurity on steroids. He can’t function unless there are multiple lips glued to his ass.

He’s also not sick so that subject is moot.

I just disagree that he suffers insecurity. I've come to believe he has NPD and is a 'grandiose' type.

I wasn't addressing the subject, I was addressing one of the replies just as you have.

We know his rallies are highly organized. They may look spontaneous but they’re far from it. There’s method in that thar madness!

Check his eyes when the doctor says "diabetes." Does he have that too that we don't know about?
