That piece of shit is on my TV screen again

I wish I’d kept a tally of the amount of face (and voice) time given to him vs. Obama.

You saw Obama on TV once a week at best and even when his face was shown his words often were narrated/summarized.

OTOH they just point the camera at this 💩 and he spews ludicrousness.

He’s right the unquestioning media is “fake”. Only the fakeness favors him.

He just can't let go. Trying so hard to elevate himself by constantly portraying Obama negatively, even by mischaracterizing.

Trump is scum.

Too much cognitive dissonance in maintaining a false sense of superiority recently, so the defense mechanisms are really going to kick in now.

The G7 was obviously stressful for him and his dogged determination, (nay, requirement) to not know that he doesn't know while he believes he knows better probably takes most of his energy now, in there, in that psychological equivalent of a new ring in Dante's Inferno that is the map of the mind of this "stable genius" who has all the words.

If he really knew that he was what we can obviously see he is, his narcissism, etc., would freak him out and bite him in the face while he crumbled like a bag of cookies dropped from a skyscraper. It would be like some kind of Hitchcock movie. Badly very bad! The product of his obsessive compulsion with himself seems to require the symptoms we see daily in order to maintain it.

Wow, it is wild to see this in office, really. Instead of performing the job well at all, it is about him keeping himself together on the World stage and that's what's really insane.

'If I threw a baseball at your head what would you do?' An acceptable answer would be to move.

If the media is gaslighting you, stop listening.

When we're having a trump day, like the last few, I put on NOVA, or travel shows.
