This Man Is Mentally Ill. He's Addlebrained. If You Saw Him In A Bar, You'd Assume He's Plastered.

The President is soft in the head. He's mentally ill, and every elected member of Congress knows it. But the Democrats, by and large, are afraid to talk about it. Why I don't know. It should be ALL they talk about. And the Republicans are worse. Not only refusing to talk about it, but ENABLING an addlebrained madman to remain in a position of extreme power and responsibility. Actually fighting AGAINST people who are trying to get him the hell OUT of there.

I used to think Roman History was cute and quaint, the way they allowed themselves to be ruled by crackpots like Caligula and Nero. But they didn't have a true democracy, so I laughed it off. I used to think English History was cute, too. They way they allowed themselves to be ruled by a nutcase (George III), and tried to keep him distracted, so that he wouldn't mess things up too badly. But eventually, even the 18th Century English passed a law, putting the King in the nuthouse, and letting the Prince Reagent rule.

But what's up with THIS??? The fact is that Trump would have gone the same way (to the nuthouse) LONG AGO if the elected Republicans weren't scared of their VOTING base, who LOVE Trump. Nearly 50% of the American Electorate think this psychopath is a great President. And nearly half of them actually think he's a better President than LINCOLN. And that's a TERRIBLE comment on American Democracy, and the idea of Democracy in general.

Let's not sugar coat this. We've got to DO something about this situation, or the IDEA of DEMOCRACY is FINISHED. If political TRIBALISM can TRUMP (so to speak) RATIONAL, LONG SIGHTED, SELF INTEREST, it proves that democracy doesn't work, and other 'alternatives' become more attractive.

We're in sad shape as a nation that let's this conman liar continue in office.

From the far end I can hear this asshat preaching the virtues of dump.

I told the barmaid (bar tender), and she said, "you can hear that?" I am here to watch football and escape the idiot!

I left after that beer.

I am half deaf and have loud tinnitus in both ears. Jet engines and gunshots.

Yet that crap came through loud and clear, even over ten tvs.

Recently I saw a video of him from 2016. He spoke in full sentences, seemed to make sense until you thought about what he was saying, and sounded nothing like the DT we have grown used to hearing. If he keeps going in this direction someone will have to do something soon.

Time to start talking about removing him under authority of the 25th amendment?

But I don’t think the GOP will do the right thing.
It will be interesting to see if he backs out of delivering the SOTU in Feb.

I'm very much wondering what the GOP will do.

They have shown that they can continue to support him no matter how obviously he puts his own interests above the nation's. I always thought that that's because he protects their interests as well. But if he's just losing it? Then he can protect them no longer. Removal from office following impeachment must be resisted because it would bring shame on them; not so with removal for mental deterioration. And they would get Pence, something I think most of them would like.

Yes, the SOTU will be interesting. How much can make-up, practice, and teleprompters cover up?

I think they'll find an excuse to cancel and/or reschedule the SOTU.
He's simply incapable of presenting a lengthy, cohesive speech without losing his train of thought while swaying, slapping the podium, jerking, and slurring.

the "fumes" are sent into the air once, while coal (which he's very fond of) keeps belching poisonous gases into the air forever.

If brains were dynamite the Moron in Chief wouldn't have enough to blow his nose. One of the most ignorant dispshits on the planet actually thinks he's the most learned man on the planet. That's how deluded he is.
