Mary Trump sounds the alarm.

Trump is in an ‘uncontrollable rage’: Mary Trump says ‘somebody has to step in and stop’ her uncle

November 5, 2020
By Bob Brigham

The president’s niece dissected her uncle’s highly controversial press conference during a Thursday evening appearance on MSNBC.

Anchor Lawrence O’Donnell asked Mary Trump what she saw watching Donald Trump’s address to the nation.

“Well, we’re seeing a man who is in a unique position,” she replied. “Donald has never been in this place before where there’s nobody to bail him out, there’s nobody to buy him out. He’s desperate, he’s flailing, and there’s literally nothing he can do legitimately except to watch this play out helplessly.”

“This wasn’t just Donald obfuscating or lying. This was Donald talking about an attempted coup,” she explained. “The leader of a country trying desperately to de-legitimize an election. it is obscene and somebody has to step in and stop him.”

If Trump tries anything that stupid, the secret service will 'detain' him. Handcuffs, a gag and the broom closet.
Extraordinary rendering...why not a broom closet? Seems like a good spot.

Somebody let her crazy uncle out of the attic and made him President. She knows what she's talking about.

Unfortunately, it requires that Pence and the cabinet have some sense of integrity, so we're all at the mercy of this truculent and dangerous narcissist.

I'm glad the networks are finally cutting away from the liar-in-chief. Too bad they didn't adopt this policy four and five years ago.

It would still require the VP, but it would be some improvement.

10. The fact that Republicans kept most of their seats makes Trump feel worse

since it's seen as more of a rejection of him personally rather than a party thing in which case he can just point to someone else in the party as being at fault .
