I wish someone would do that, I have tried to get people here at DU and Daily Kos to help me do it. Nobody wants to do it.

He is not unhinged or any kind of mentally ill. He knows exactly what he is doing. We should keep in mind that he has been stage managed, and most likely has had some semblance of theatrical training for the past several yrs.

Trump just does this stuff because that's all he is.

But the Republicans are happy to use his insanity as a distraction just as you suggested.
They'll keep him in power as long as he continues to draw the public's attention away from their massive dismantling of the US Government.
That's why there's no talk among the GOP about impeachment.
He is a useful stooge for them.
