(14,145 posts)Mucci called tr-dump an intelligent wizard of communication to the common people. Tr-dump's art and style can never be equaled or surpassed.
Tr-dump now thinks he will take over the mantle of the "Great Communicator" and put Reagan to shame.
Expect this tr-dump tweet bull shit to be amplified in both quantity and volume.
Tr-dump is the media ~ tr-dump is the message ~ tr-dump's is the only truthful opinion, and the only one that counts. Everything else is fake and false news.
With the exception of Hannity & Faux and Fiends.

SMS Cohen
(18 posts)There is a known and accepted condition of addiction to web forums, social media, etc.
The addict gets a rush from seeing his/her own post read and responded to by others.
Trump began his addictive behavior many years ago when he had few followers. Then as the number of followers grew, as more people would answer his tweets, as he got into more debates online, he got more and more excited. And the rush of endorphins was exhilarating.
It is also not surprising that he tweets late at night. During the day there has often been many people telling him how important he is. (Long before he was a candidate or the pres.)
But at night he is all alone with nobody talking to him. He needs the stimulation of posting a tweet. And enjoys the rush when he thinks of how people will respond.
And he is totally high when "Morning Joe" or any of the other cable nets mention his tweets.
This addictive behavior is why aides and family have been unable to get him to stop tweeting.
Also, I would not be surprised to find out that he has a secret, other-named Twitter account that he posts quite outrageous comments just to see what reactions he can stir up.
Of course I'll be watching this thread to see if anyone responds to me

(90,648 posts)...of psychiatrists busy.
A lot of us here have been going with Malignant Narcissism and Sociopathy, with others noting signs of Dementia. I've always said there's no reason why someone who's a narcissist and sociopath can't develop age-related dementia as well, especially since his father (by all accounts a real piece of work himself) developed Alzheimer's.
Now we can add Addiction to our armchair diagnoses. In my experience, it's never just one thing -- that's why they call it "a complex."
All are just trying to make some sense of the unfolding horror-show that we are unable to stop.
Welcome to DU. See you around.

God, this guy is delusional. The Obamacare repeal/replace bullshit hasn't gone anywhere because the Senators are catching hell from their constituents. And, suprisingly, some have actual principles.
Honestly, DT thinks *we* don't exist... he refuses to believe there are more of us than there are of them. He is such a delusional moron.
Keep calling, keep up the pressure.

(32,822 posts)As far as armchair diagnosis, I'd like to throw bipolar in the mix. If he can't sleep and he's binge tweeting he could be on a manic swing.

(7,527 posts)--A new INTELLIGENCE LEAK from the Amazon Washington Post,this time against A.G. Jeff Sessions.These illegal leaks, like Comey's, must stop!
Leaks are bad, right?
--While all agree the U. S. President has the complete power to pardon, why think of that when only crime so far is LEAKS against us.FAKE NEWS
Yes, why think of that, Don? Who brought up that whole pardon thing? They should be FIRED!
--So many people are asking why isn't the A.G. or Special Council looking at the many Hillary Clinton or Comey crimes. 33,000 e-mails deleted?
Leaks are good, right? Especially when they come from our friend, Russia!
...What about all of the Clinton ties to Russia, including Podesta Company, Uranium deal, Russian Reset, big dollar speeches etc.
Collaborating with Russia is bad, right? We shouldn't be doing deals with them, right!
--My son Donald openly gave his e-mails to the media & authorities whereas Crooked Hillary Clinton deleted (& acid washed) her 33,000 e-mails!
Email leaks are g... Um.
--The Republican Senators must step up to the plate and, after 7 years, vote to Repeal and Replace. Next, Tax Reform and Infrastructure. WIN!
Yeah, whoever thought healthcare would be easy...that loser really has it coming.
--ObamaCare is dead and the Democrats are obstructionists, no ideas or votes, only obstruction. It is solely up to the 52 Republican Senators!
Obstruction is bad! Like obstructing a SC nominee for a year to steal it. Obamacare at least got passed! If it's "solely up to 52 Republicans, that really doesn't sound like the Democrats can vote. We had ideas on healthcare and took less than eight years to do it!

You know the treatment with flashing lights that they caught on video a month or so ago.
He has the treatment at night, and it gets what is left of mind stimulated. He goes to bed and has all sorts of fabulous ideas that wake him up early. All his synapses are firing; he's on fire. When no one is watching, he grabs his phone and heads to central office (aka the bathroom), where he can tweet away all his brilliant ideas.
Folks, if he didn't have his treatment, he would be a vegetable. He'd sleep from 8pm till 10am and dream of riding around in a golf cart. Someone needs to break into the WH and steal that light machine.

(2,034 posts)Interesting theory though...we know they're trying to hide something yet again. Spicer said at the time that it was an ambulance across the street - which is grade A BS
ProudLib72
(17,984 posts)I think this theory goes a long way to explaining the short bursts of tweeting and the time they usually happen.
KY_EnviroGuy
(14,490 posts)Does anyone else here suspect like I do that DJT does not create these Tweets?
I refuse to believe that he can remember and write all this stuff at 8a.m. without gross spelling and syntax errors, or at any time of the day for that matter!
I'm guessing he has staff (perhaps external) that works up this garbage during the night and posts it early in the morning to make him look good, and he may not even see it. Most likely, he's sipping his breakfast Coke and watching TV.
Alice11111
(5,730 posts)That it is fake, but HE USES IT for the big stuff. Yet, he wants to scare his base away from it. All they need is his tweets and Fox.
He has them trained to brainwash themselves, though they were already pretty good at it.
