The word is Trump is having rage fits. White House staffers are avoiding him as he prowls the halls. He sulks for hours at a time, mumbling to himself. It is well known that he resorts to repeating conspiracy theories, each one more deranged than the last. Now he questions why the Department of Justice isn't going after his political rivals!
The man is unhinged, he lives in a world of make believe, he can't face reality, and he might be a danger to himself.

Sounds like many of his supporters fit that description. And that was before he lost the election!
This is what is most troubling to me about Trump being able to become president. Anybody who paid attention to the guy through the years knew that he was a sleazy business man, a hedonist and was a megalomaniac. Anybody who paid attention knew that his "business empire" was rife with fraud and underhanded dealings. And the beauty pageant stuff, pro football teams and all that stuff was just for show.
Electing Trump in 2016 would be essentially the same as if we had electing Hugh Hefner as president in say about 1992. Except Hugh came by his fortune more honestly than Trump did. And Heff was a more palatable human being than Trump by a mile.
It makes you wonder what we have in store in the future. I fully expect to see Kim Kardashian and Kanye in the White House in about two decades the way we are going.
I wonder about his "supporters" and what they see/saw in him to vote for him other than the fact that men like him (narcissistic, megalomaniac, egotistical, etc.) is what attracted them to him. It's like they look up to a person like that which is a shame. 73 million people voted for someone who only has his personal ambitions in mind, not the greater good for the country.....smh
In reading responses on this thread and listening to Barack Obama, one really realizes that Biden pleas for unity is like finding a Pink Unicorn at the end of a rainbow!

Right you keep reading cnn you will lose your brain...why do you repeat the nonsense? I heard Biden has a pimple they are concerned he will need a cat scan today. He uses the toilet like a regular person...but forgot the toilet paper lmao

So what exactly is wrong with "pleading for unity"? I take it "unity" is a big joke to you and you prefer separation of the U.S. citizens.

I hear he even frequently starts rambling ranting conspiracy and rumor-laced topics on message boards.
This (below) should be bookmarked & locked at the top of the Politics & Controversies page & you'd have people arguing a lot less knowing the guy they're arguing about is mentally ill. It's a well documented fact at this point.
At this point I'm not sure if we should feel sorry for him & his followers, or what.

Donald Trump’s declaration of victory on election night when he lacked even an Electoral College lead reveals his plans for destruction of norms and potential for violence. Like an emotional seismograph, he has calibrated his words and actions to what he senses he can get away with, and he clearly understands he has a chance if he can disdain, maltreat and even sicken and kill his followers “without losing any votes.”
His post-election gambit confirms once again that he is more dangerous than the typically dangerous leaders of the past because of two factors: his irrational followership and the enormous powers of the U.S. presidency.
This is what mental health professionals have understood and warned for nearly four years
Is Trump mentally ill, corrupt, incompetent, racist, or all four?
In addition to evidence of Donald Trump’s narcissism, Dr. Trump also discusses “antisocial personality disorder” (chronic criminality, arrogance, disregard for others) and “dependent personality disorder” (inability to make decisions or take responsibility, discomfort with being alone). She even suggests that Trump suffers a “long undiagnosed learning disability” that hinders his processing of information”
President Trump has defiantly flipped the presidential script, making chaos and deliberate combativeness the new normal of White House operations, manifest in hostile briefings, high rates of staff turnover, and cultural exchanges that appear aimed at dividing the nation.....
Trump’s manifest grandiosity and disregard for facts, beginning with failure to accept clear evidence about the size of the crowd attending his inauguration, has put mental health professionals in the spotlight from Day One of his presidency.
Psychologists and commentators from all ideological camps early converged on a label of narcissistic personality disorder as the condition that “explains” Trump’s behavior. Among those making this assertion are more than 70,000 mental health professionals who signed a petition warning of Trump's potential dangerousness, despite longstanding professional injunctions against "diagnosing" public figures whom experts have not personally examined.
... nearly 60,000 mental health professionals have diagnosed President Donald Trump with a type of insanity that is often compared to an alcoholic’s lack of honesty and impulse control. Sparked by Change.org petitions by a top former Johns Hopkins professor and a California congresswoman, the psychiatric community has declared that Trump suffers from “Malignant Narcissism.”....
This is the first time in history that so many mental health professionals have collectively diagnosed a living individual. Their conclusion, based on the hundreds of hours of Trump’s on-camera dialogue and off-the-cuff public speaking, is alarming because it says that our current president is too mentally disturbed to fulfill his office. https://medium.com/@shanesnow/donald...y-82ab6db008c4
To any first-year psychiatric resident, Trump’s sleepless nights filled with ranting tweets suggest irrational exuberance and lack of control, possibly a sign of a mood disorder called hypomania. His life-long history of disregard for others and deceit, if correct as reported, are characteristic of a personality disorder on the narcissistic and even sociopathic spectrum.
"What makes Donald Trump so dangerous is the brittleness of his sense of worth. Any slight or criticism is experienced as a humiliation and degradation. To cope with the resultant hollow and empty feeling, he reacts with what is referred to as narcissistic rage.
"He is unable to take responsibility for any error, mistake, or failing. His default in that situation is to blame others and to attack the perceived source of his humiliation. These attacks of narcissistic rage can be brutal and destructive."
....
A recent book by an anonymous Trump administration official claimed that White House staff members were concerned about the president's mental acuity and said he "stumbles, slurs, gets confused, is easily irritated, and has trouble synthesizing information, not occasionally but with regularity."
Lee told The Independent that she expected that Republicans would dismiss the petition as colored by partisan bias, but she insisted it was based on observations and accounts of Trump's behavior.
She told The Independent that Trump appeared to be "doubling and tripling down on his delusions," based on his "ramping up his conspiracy theories" and "showing a great deal of cruelty and vindictiveness" in his "accelerated, repetitive tweets."
This is what is most troubling to me about Trump being able to become president. Anybody who paid attention to the guy through the years knew that he was a sleazy business man, a hedonist and was a megalomaniac.

I think the attraction Trump has for those millions of misfits, is similar to the way many people regard a Mafia boss as though he was an important and successful member of the community.
Can’t wait for all the tell all books, and there’s going to be several of them.
Are staffed bound to any NDA?
He hasn’t the money to pay for competent legal counsel to enforce any NDAs. I wonder if independent/private NDAs are enforceable for federal employees.....?
