Trump is on a rage-tweet spree -- posting more than 70 times before 9 am this morning 12/12/19

It is not really news that Trump is rage tweeting--but perhaps interesting??
Maybe trump is flushing his toilet as he tweets??

Trump is on a rage-tweet spree — posting more than 70 times before 9 am this morning

Published 1 min ago on December 12, 2019

President Donald Trump went on an early morning Twitter rampage Thursday, with dozens of furious tweets and retweets attacking targets ranging from former law enforcement officials, House Democrats, and 16-year-old climate activist Greta Thunberg.

Vox.com’s Aaron Rupar did a tally of all the president’s tweets and found that he had posted 68 times as of 8:52 a.m. Since then, the president has blasted out four additional retweets, bringing his post total to more than 70 before 9 a.m.

Less common side effects include anxiety, change in libido, grandiosity, irritability, repetitive or obsessive behaviors, and restlessness; these effects depend on the user's personality and current mental state. Amphetamine psychosis (e.g., delusions and paranoia) can occur in heavy users.[15][16][85] Although very rare, this psychosis can also occur at therapeutic doses during long-term therapy. According to the USFDA, "there is no systematic evidence" that stimulants produce aggressive behavior or hostility. From Wiki

BTW during the last years of the war Hitler was getting daily doses of cocaine and amphetamines ...
is Trump going down the same path?

Trump's bizarre behavior patterns of over 40 years, easily recognizable by mental health professionals, are not explained by 40 years of serious drug use. Nor, btw, do any of the many professionals who've now spoken up on this claim drug use as a possible explanation.

It's way past time for people who want to understand their world learn about what personality disorders are. We really should not be electing disordered people to the presidency.

But clearly the first step is to learn that personality disorders even exist, then learn to recognize them. They're as real as drug use and schizophrenia and far from uncommon. We've all known people with them.

Here's a little intro. If this is Trump's problem, he's going to be in cluster B. He is exhibiting some paranoid signs, but those are also seen in the disorders grouped together under the B label. Those with more extreme manifestations can be very dangerous.

And reading through the disorders, Trump appears to have aspects of several different ones.

therefore the impeachment should be dismissed. I don't think he really understands how things work in the real world. Because he doesn't live in the real world and probably never has. The sad part is that he is drawing too many gullible and obsessed followers into his madness and lies as well. There is a sizable number who will take his words at face value.

I have had heartburn since my young adult years in the early 90s over their bullshit.

This did not happen over night, right wing lies, spin and skull fucking has made this country stupid as shit.

Hell, in the 80s they got Reagen and his admin out of the fire for Iran Contra, including being the crack sales business domestically to arm the contras ...

Spent the entirety of the 90s on a relentless mission to take down Clinton.

Spent half the 2000s bullying the country into submission because the guy who let 9-11 happen was keeping us saf.

Spent 8 years pissing away a darn fine POTUS in Obama and blaming him for them being assholes.

The country indulged all of this, they do it ALL the time, indulge right wing lunacy.

except I started screaming about this crap from the first year of Reagans Regime. (Truth be spoken the HWBush/Cheney/Rumsfeld administration. Reagan was just a front man, much like W Bush for the same identical individuals)

All my Reagan Loving Democrat Friends thought I was crazy and Reagan was a God. Now that they are all at retirement age and seeing things around them and looking back at all Reagan and the Republicans have done to our country, I am getting (regretfully) the last and final laugh.....

insatiable drug dependence, one day he'll overdose. If 5 pills make him feel good, 6 or 7 will make him even better. When he gets to 10, his stock market-minded body will "sell" and he'll flatline--probably on his Twitter seat, before the 12th flush.

In that room, a flush definitely beats a full house.
