This is precisely the feeling I got watching that pathetic press conference.
Quote:
Trump’s unchecked antics on multiple fronts are suddenly making him look like a very weak autocrat wannabe.

Indeed, the lashing out is beginning to look less and less fearsome, and more and more impulsively buffoonish and self-defeating.
And there’s a broader pattern developing here, one that undermines a key narrative about the Trump presidency, in which Trump is pursuing strategic disruption and breaking all the old rules and norms to further an unconventional presidency that is designed to render the old way of doing business irrelevant. It’s obvious that all of this is now actively undermining his own designs, on multiple fronts.

It's only the deranged left that believes this stuff.

The WaPo is blowing the dog whistle, and the left becomes more deranged.

He still has to reach his thread quota today. Nobody wants their pay docked.

Desperate times give way to desperate posting.

I'm centrist, and I'm not deranged, but sadly, this is all too believable. Wish that were not the case - but ignoring reality doesn't fix the problem(s).

Wow, how paranoid can one be?? Pay docked? Really? Or might there be a slight hint of projection here?

Trump has been winning through asymmetric methods, he isn't going to stop now, especially since he is winning.

Trump just slayed Obamacare.

He his exposing the bad apples from the Obama administration and their treasonous leaking of classified information.

He is exposing the msm for their fake news.

Trump is winning, and his supporters are supporting him all the more because of it.

That's the reality.

Sorry Sheldon, that was sarcasm based on his proclivity of starting lots of new threads every single day.
