OK I am watching the lunatic right now

[malaise]

He is absolutely fucking crazy - incoherent - he cannot deliver a sentence without finding a way to praise himself - I I I I I I I I IIIIII I I I I I

[dalton99a]

1. The malignancy is constant and pervasive

[Cracklin Charlie]

8. Will only get worse.

Not sure this is something that will clear up.

[Rural_Progressive]

48. I am not a psychiatrist and I have not played one on TV

but my understanding of reading the different descriptions of narcissistic disorder follows. There seems to be two distinct flavors, your plain vanilla version which is amenable to therapy and can improve if the person wants to work on it.

Then there is the "malignant" version described by Dan Shaw, a psychoanalyst and the author of Traumatic Narcissism: Relational Systems of Subjugation, who provides these telltale signs of malignant narcissism:

Someone who is “infinitely entitled and grateful to no one.”

When telling the story of his life, he “leaves out any trace of his own significant misdeeds and failures.”

Someone who “never hesitates to lie for the purpose of self-aggrandizement.”

Someone who “blames others for his own errors and failures.”

Someone who “is erratic, thin-skinned, belligerent, and constantly engaged in attacking and belittling perceived enemies.”

And in the case of malignant narcissistic leaders of cults and political movements, Shaw says, “he persuades followers to see their lives before joining his group as wretched, and he claims exclusive possession of the power to transform followers’ lives in miraculous ways.”

SOUND FAMILIAR??

[Achilleaze]

23. Trump is the Republican family values role model

...so expect forthcoming generations of little Republican rug rats will grow up thinking THIS IS THE WAY TO BEHAVE.

[ebbie15644]

2. Can't watch him. refuse to

[SammyWinstonJack]

13. Same here.

[Dem2]

38. Yep

Not gonna do it

[No Vested Interest]

56. Agree. I love my remote!

[madokie]

3. As I've said so many times

sister sara ain't got shit on tRump. My late Border Collie mix, Roxy, could speak better than tRump can and thats a fact

[get the red out]

16. +1

Looking at my BC mix and BC this morning thinking "God, you guys are smarter than Trump!"

[malaise]

18. I suspect that as Lady BlahBlah was going down in flames ReTHUGS

shouted loudly - we have one way more crazy than her - we have the birther king.

[madokie]

19. I like that

lady BlahBlah

Where is she when we need here anyway?

I'm sure she could decipher tRumps ramblings for us, well maybe not

I've got fence post that are smarter than either one actually

tRump thinks being a dick is a sign of intelligence but I've got news for him, it ain't

I'll be surprised if he makes it two months. If he does I'm sure there will be some Thorazine coursing through his veins, maybe mellaril

[Achilleaze]

27. Comrade Casino named her the IKGOPR* Ambassador to Wasilla

* Illegitimate KGOP Regime, Inc.

[madokie]

28. Now I've got to go bleach my Eyes

and wash that out

[justhanginon]

47. "I'll get you my pretty and your little dog too!"

Wicked Witch of Wasilla and everywhere she goes. What a nasty , nasty person.

[malaise]

59. ROFL

[politicat]

20. It's sad that I'm nostalgic for Snow Snookie. NT

[madokie]

24. I like that one too

snow snookie LOL

[Sherman A1]

4. I won't watch him and delete the photos I find of him

on my Facebook news feed whenever possible. I may miss a couple of stories here and there, but I still get enough of his lunacy.

[sarcasmo]

5. malignant narcissism

[spiderpig]

6. I can't stand to look at or listen to him

I was fixated on the female behind him at the right of the screen (wearing boots with her skirt hitched way up) who kept tweeting/texting while Twitler babbled on.

[randome]

9. Maybe that was the elusive Meredith McIver!

[hr][font color="blue"][center]A 90% chance of rain means the same as a 10% chance:

[spiderpig]

10. Eureka!

(runs off to contact producers of Unsolved Mysteries...)

[HipChick]

7. only watch on delay or DVR - Where are the actual #'s on jobs or just more diversion tactics?

so I can FF through his ramblings

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

11. You are stronger than me. I cannot bear to watch and listen to him. One or the other is hard enough.

But, good grief, this was clearly who he was and yet millions of Americans chose to elevate him to this position of power. That is more disturbing than the fact that he is as astoundingly awful as he is. The RW propaganda machine has done its job very, very well.

Thank goodness for the resistance.

[heaven05]

12. this administration

is something I bet even darth cheney and his poodle rove would never had dreamed could be brought off against american citizens.

[Pachamama]

14. What bile is coming from his mouth now?

I can't watch him or hear him... It makes me ill and angry just to see him...

[NewJeffCT]

15. conservative Charles Krauthammer nailed him on this a while ago

"This is beyond narcissism. I used to think Trump was an 11-year-old, an undeveloped schoolyard bully. I was off by about 10 years. His needs are more primitive, an infantile hunger for approval and praise, a craving that can never be satisfied. He lives in a cocoon of solipsism where the world outside himself has value — indeed exists — only insofar as it sustains and inflates him."

[malaise]

22. He still wants an explanation from Mommy dearest on why he was sent away

to military school - he must have done something horrible.
Everything he does is for Mommy dearest's approval - even the hair

[csziggy]

34. Even his hair emulates Mummy's hair

Have you seen the picture of her at an advanced age? She was like a female DJT!

Apparently, Donald Trump's Hair Is Genetic—and Twitter Is Freaking Out

Genetics play an essential role in a lot of things. Height. Eye color. Health. And a recently unearthed video of Donald Trump's late mother, Mary Trump, proves that genes have a big—or, perhaps, YUUUGE—part when it comes to hair too.

[3catwoman3]

36. TRuly, 2 of the creepiest...

...pictures EVER!!!

[King_Klonopin]

39. That is FRIGHTENING !

Who was her hairstylist, Gumby ?

[SammyWinstonJack]

53. LOL!

[charlyvi]

58. Or Bobs Big Boy.

[Rural_Progressive]

50. Oooops, I can't believe I owe tRump an apology

If that is not some sort of horrible, creepy, psychopathic photoshoped version of his mother's picture than that actually is donny's real, honest to goodness, hair.

And here I always thought it was a hairpiece, styled in an in-comprehensive manner.

Sorry donny, I was wrong.

[get the red out]

17. How do people pretend he's normal?

I couldn't be a reporter for sure, there's no way I could try to couch anything he does or says in terms that make him seem any way normal. It is just instinctive to hear him and KNOW without a doubt that there is something very wrong with this guy!!!!! It has to take a lot of effort to make him seem like anything but bat-shit-crazy.

[Solly Mack]

21. No kidding! Anyone pretending there is anything normal about Trump is

doing a major disservice to the country and the world.

[coco22]

49. And that would be ...

Dana Bash on CNN no matter the subject she seems to try to make excuse for him. They talked about Bannon,the refugees,etc...She fights to interupt so she can make excuses for him and somehow bring it back to the Democrats. Just like Scarborough..

[Solly Mack]

51. She does! Tripping all over herself in defense of him.

[coco22]

54. Also her Husband or Ex-husband..

John King..I gave here some time but every since he won she has been smiling her ass off,giddy as hell. Before the election she was snapping at certain people.

[malaise]

25. +1,000

Bat shit crazy is kind

[smirkymonkey]

33. It's like "The Emperor's New Clothes".

How anyone can pretend he is anything but a ridiculous buffoon is just beyond me.

[3catwoman3]

37. Nor could I be in the Secret Service.

I wouldn't take a punch for this jackass, let alone a bullet.

[RKP5637]

26. And, with an exceptionally limited vocabulary. He always uses the same words over and over again. nt

[dalton99a]

30. Those are the best words.

[RKP5637]

32. I am the Greatest, AND,

I ONLY speak the greatest words!

What a fool he is.

[LonePirate]

29. You will need to be more specific when referencing incoherent lunatics in the new administration.

The OP could be about any of them.

[dalton99a]

31. Very true.

[manicraven]

35. Can you imagine meeting someone in your personal life like tRump?

I'd be looking for the exit sign after the first, "I have the best brain, believe me." or "I'm like really smart." or "Everybody loves me."

Yikes!

[Fast Walker 52]

46. he's a complete freak, just a weird, unreal person

Can't imagine how Melania ever did anything with him

What's sickening is how many people supplicate to him...

where are their fucking spines????

[lunatica]

40. Funny how when we thought he was pretending it wasn't so bad

But realizing this is the real Donald without any pretense, is horrifying!

[Timmygoat]

41. Our lunatic in chief

Agree 100%
I would ask everyone to read the article this morning on Booman Tribune.

[yellowcanine]

42. Which one? Trump? Bannon? Spicer? Conway? Flynn? Sessions?

So many to choose from!

[underpants]

43. From what I've read elsewhere it's ..,,

[kairos12]

44. Obannon is Rasputin pulling the strings.

[Fast Walker 52]

45. haha, remember when conservatives used to count how many times Obama said I?

But no doubt, #TrumpisInsane

[woodchuck mom]

52. omfg

the morons fell for his con and elected Gov. Lepetomaine, while Bannon is a rumpled Headley Lamar. Lordy, lordy, the sheriff done let Redrock before orange le petomaine got sworn in. Of course, that would make Kelly Anne . . . nope, I will not tarnish Madeline Kahn's immortal performance.

[lark]

55. He's all he cares about.

It's either love for himself or hate for anything or any person other than himself. Caveat - if the other person just praised him, Drumpf will praise them back, even if they are murderers. It's always all about him.

[MoonRiver]

57. Demented. I keep coming back to THAT word.
