It is indeed a lose-lose for Trump. Either way he looks bad.

I don't plan on reading the book but look forward to political talking heads picking it apart and mentioning the funniest parts.

Consider the source!


I doubt that her story is true, it is obviously from her bias, and she is a tough cookie, not sure if that is always good.


she has the personality of a spider, the kind that eats its mate, except she is mean at her core.


Will say anything to sell a book.

Howard Stearn, long time friend of Trump, said “the presidency was not going to be good for Trump’s emotional well-being”.

The daily tweet storms are evidence that Stern was correct.

If Trump ceased tweeting and controlled his rhetoric, his popularity would soar.

Most of us have watched 45 on TV for decades. This is not news.

I agree, it absolutely would.

That's what makes the situation so funny. All of Trump's aides, most republican congressmen and women, and many Americans wish he would simply stop tweeting. 90% of Trump's tweets are used against him by the media.

Unfortunately, Trump's ego won't allow him to stop. For one, telling Donald to stop doing something probably only makes him want to do it more. "Nbody tells me what I can or can't do!"

Secondly, his ego can't be silenced. He just HAS to have his opinion known about everything.

Can't we just dust off the thread on Trump being mentally ill as diagnosed by people that have never met him and add it to that?

Why?

Omarosa has met him.

Bit of difference, no?

She was on Celebrity Big Brother and she told the other houseguests that Trump loved her from the beginning (The Apprentice) because she was a sh*t stirrer. She said he loved it when the other contestants were vendictive with each other and would throw each other under the bus when in the boardroom. Her next words "He Loves Chaos." Hmm. Sounds familiar.

The excerpt from the book as it relates to the interview with Lester Holt:

“ Donald rambled. He spoke gibberish. He contradicted himself from one sentence to the next”

Hard pressed to deny her observation.

There are good reasons why Trump’s lawyers are very concerned about Trump being interviewed by Mueller.

Naiveness? Disorganized thinking? Dementia? Something else ?
