Trump will soon have an on-camera meltdown so bad even GOP can't ignore it

MSNBC’s Donny Deutsch predicts Trump will soon have an on-camera meltdown so bad even GOP can’t ignore it

“He’s getting the questions from Mueller and freaking out,” said co-host Mika Brzezinski. “... at the time the questions from the Mueller probe are coming into this White House, at the time Democrats have control and the president is finally being educated of the fact that there is nothing he can do when he is compelled to hand over his tax returns and answer questions.

The president finally realizes for the first time in his life he is cornered and there is nowhere to go, and at the time that one might surmise his son is potentially on the list of those that might be indicted that this president is freaking out”.

MSNBC contributor Donny Deutsch predicted the meltdown would reach new depths as the walls continued to close in. “We’re going to see now a caged animal, and I think we’re going to see behavior so much more aberrant than anything we’ve seen,” he said. “I think we’re going to see something happen to Donald Trump on camera, some of the tweets go to a new level that even Republicans are going to start to come out from under the rocks.”

Scarborough pointed to Trump’s admission that he appointed Matthew Whitaker as interim attorney general to interfere with the special counsel probe, and said the president’s attempts to obstruct justice were obvious.

1. Wanna bet...?

Not on whether he has a meltdown, but whether even Republicans won’t be able to ignore it.

2. My gut says they'll ignore it

But I hope they'll finally see an opportunity to break from POTU$ and cut their losses. But that may get us Pence, whom I am not exactly aching to get to know better; I have seen enough that I don't expect he will help American citizens' lot.

[Scruffy1]

8. I actualy hope they don't.

Let them go down with the ship.

[cvoogt]

14. Funny you should say that

My original draft of my post was to say they'll ride that boat into oblivion.

[RockRaven]

3. Republicans: "Challenge accepted."

They are so far gone now, there is no line to be crossed anymore.

4. He was pretty testy at the press conference where he got so pissed off at Jim Acosta.

I even looked up from what I was doing to notice him and normally I’d have never unmuted the TV to hear him. His behavior was outrageous and rude. I think if the reporters had pressed back a bit more forcefully, we’d have seen a full meltdown that day. He was very close. Following that there were leaks and rumors about his rages and screaming at underlings and other defenseless souls. So yep, Just a matter of time before he snaps. I hope I get to see it live ....in real time. My reward for living through the nightmare he has caused for all of us.

7. add to this

"What a stupid question. What a stupid question."

He let reporters know the question got under his skin. What a reward for them. He lost it.

[Grammy23]

18. He has been telegraphing his hot buttons since the beginning of this debacle.

Under normal circumstances our press people generally show a modicum of deference to our Presidents by not going after them viciously — even if they deserve a more thorough questioning. So tRump got the deferential treatment, too. He responded by attacking the media....the very people he actually needed to spread his gospel.

Eventually, they tired of being his target and now...at this late date ....are hitting back. Not exactly in a vicious way but more like tenacious. It is a new day...one that tRumpolini has not considered. A victim, target if you will, that actually fights back. He is used to being the big bully in the room where everyone else shrinks back and cowers. The journalists have taken a pummeling for several years now so their outrage is plentiful.

tRump has revealed his sensitive areas so well that even a kid could know how to “get his goat”. I think with the Acosta episode, journalists might have gotten renewed spirit to not let that bastard off so lightly. At least press conferences will be a lot more interesting. I’m sure when tRump blows a gasket on live TV there will be a loud cheer that rises across the land!

5. We Can Only Hope

It will be very entertaining.

Don't count on rethugs making a fuss. They will ignore whatever agent orange does like always.

[Midnight Writer]

6. They will definitely ignore, if not defend. Mark my word, R's intend to make Trump same as Reagan

20 years from now, you will see conservatives mist up at the mention of Trump. They will have his picture in their living rooms. Some may even have MAGA tats.

[The Liberal Lion]

10. I think you're awfully optimistic about our republic surviving so long should

pubs get a chance to make trump into some kind of American hero like they've done for Ronnie instead of the conman traitor we know him today to be. My view: if pubs got that chance we would not have the country known as "America" but rather something similar to the Republic of Gilead as seen in the Handmaid's Tale. I'm not at all kidding.

11. Under His eye!

See you in Ecotopia, after the Great Day!

[peggysue2]

9. Not only is the Trumpster freaking out but he looks . . .

terrible. He's gained weight. His eye bags are competing with his jowl line. Even his skin looks awful, something the spray tan is no longer disguising. I caught a glimpse of him in one of those unscheduled press gaggles outside the WH. Just the way the light was slanted, you could see something that looked like a raised rash, a very pimply, uneven skin texture. Don't know if he's on medication but he doesn't look healthy at all. It's clear that the job is a complete misfit; you cannot fake this job, even for the Faker-in-Chief.

So, would I be surprised if the Hair That Ate New York blew wide open. No. More surprising if he didn't.

[duforsure]

13. I agree

He's not looking well at all, and he's getting worse fast. Dementia? Rambling incoherently, confused with facts, angry, depressed, unable to deal with reality.

[sweetroxie]

16. He has Rosacea

which makes for red bumps on the skin

[peggysue2]

19. Ahhh. See I didn't realize that.

So that's the reason for the orange tan. He's trying to hide it.

It's getting worse, looked terrible the other day. Wonder if stress plays into that, increasing the rash, making it more intense in nature.

He certainly is not the picture of health.

12. "We're going to see now a caged animal"

caged or not, still an animal and right now a dangerous one.

[peekaloo]

15. I'd settle for a Fred Sanford "I'm coming Elizabeth" moment.

or a boom boom in his Depends

[oasis]

17. Hope so. nt

20. I was thinking of Bluto in the old Popeye cartoons. The ones I loved as a child.

Bluto was a perfect tRump figure. He was a bully, mean spirited and generally the character we most wanted to see get his come uppance. So when Popeye got enough of Bluto, out came the can of spinach (whoop ass) and the revenge began. By the time Popeye got finished with him, you almost felt sorry for Bluto.

Evidently, tRump never saw what happened to Bluto, although he was in the right generation to have seen those cartoons as a child. If he had, he would know that bullies never win in the end AND Popeye prevailed with the love of his life, Olive Oyl.

Maybe somebody will give tRump a hint. But Better yet, I’d like to see the live version of a Popeye come along to teach that big galoop a lesson he won’t forget.

I’m good to the finish since I ate me spinach..
I’m Popeye the Sailor Man!! Toot, toot!

21. Elected after the grabbing video: His base will tolerate anything.

The GOP probably as already has the b.s. excuses all lined up, and it will be Nancy Pelosi's fault.

[Aristus]

22. His rabid supporters will describe any meltdown the way they always do:

"He's tellin' it like it IS!"
