Did anyone watch his speech at his rally last night?
He was more disjointed and angrier than ever. He attacked everyone. Debbie Stabenow, Maxine Waters, Nancy Pelosi, Senator Tester, all the Democrats, James Comey, the FBI, and even, Putin!
Like Mussolini, with his jaw jutting into the air, he was his best dictator self.
The pressure has gotten to him. He is about to blow. And when he does, he will do something spectacularly stupid. We can only imagine what that might be?
He accused the Democrats of colluding with the Russians and the FBI. He bragged about how the House Intelligence Committee had cleared him of all the charges that have been made. He bragged about how he had "everything" to do with the Korean leaders getting together and finally signing a peace treaty to end the Korean War. Clearly, he expects to win the Nobel Peace Prize.
He even talked about the Russian lady that attended the meeting in the Trump Tower and whose emails have shown that she was working with the Russian government all along. That is when he blamed Putin. He said Putin was only trying to create more chaos in our country, indicating that he was conscious of the chaos he has already created.
If the country was not already divided enough, he divided it even more. He was very fearful of impeachment but said a lot of people would be "unhappy" if he were impeached, as if he was ready to bring it all down if something like that happened. It sounded like blackmail. He believes he is holding our country hostage and there is nothing we can do about it.

(17,276 posts)whenever his face appears on TV. But even with the sound off, or maybe especially because of that, he looked like a raving maniac. Truly raving. Truly manic.
I know he's his worst at these rallies. But something's fueling it, for sure.

I do realize this Guy is self created in the mode of Joe McCarthy and PT Barnum. But,under close exposure,Trump can not function in a rational way when challenged. Forty years of Bullshit is coming to a end.

(52,231 posts)imagine hillary claiming credit for the collapse of a nuclear test site in north korea.
the media killed al gore's career for truthfully noting that he had a lot to do with making the internet a big thing.
the media would have laughed her off the stage over claiming credit for that.
imagine hillary claiming that some democratic report "cleared" her of anything.
they've done nothing but investigate and accuse her of one thing or another for 25 years. they'd never let her get away with saying she was "cleared" of anything.
imagine hillary claiming credit for bringing the koreas together to talk about ending hostilities.
they would have said it was an insult to 70 years of military people who died or risked their lives to bring peace to the peninsula.
imagine hillary's campaign talking to a russian agent and then hillary saying that the russian agent was, um, following orders from putin. to try to do harm to america.
seriously, how is this traitor not run out of town on a rail?
how does the media not hold him accountable for anything??

(53,061 posts)I know that a lot of newspapers headlined it as "shutting down the government" but this megalomaniac has gone beyond that

"We have to have borders and we have to have them fast and we need the wall," he said, then referred to the fall spending bill: "We come up again on Sept. 28, and if we don't get border security, we have no choice; we'll close down the country because we need border security."
I don't think he misspoke. I think he thinks that he has the power to shut down border crossings and everything else.

(6,096 posts)can all rest assured that he cannot blow anything up. BY HIMSELF, I don't think he has
the brains.
If he's so damn pissed off he should have been at the WONDERFUL dinner and stood up for himself....
Yeah, right!!
