He still thinks that being President is just another reality show. And that he can fire anyone at any time. I'm just waiting for him to try to fire a federal judge, or better yet one of the Supreme Court Justices.

It doesn't help that almost everyone around him coddles him, protects him from reality, assures him that he's always right, and yes, he is the smartest man in the room. I've never worked with someone as awful as he is, although I've had the occasional toxic co-worker. I don't understand why anyone would stay in such a situation. What could they possibly be getting from it?

People here like to think that he has Alzheimer's or some other dementia. I'd argue that he absolutely has no dementia. But he's a narcissist of enormous ignorance, which shows every time he opens his mouth. Unfortunately, too many of his supporters are about as ignorant as he is, so they'll continue to support him down to the bitter end. The rest of us? Those with more than a third grade knowledge of the world? We're all hoping desperately that this nightmare will end, and end soon.
