Trump the LOSER

The explanation for Trump’s behaviour this past weekend in France, and today as he refused to attend ceremonies in Arlington, is a simple one. As confirmed by last Tuesday’s midterms, Spanky is a Loser. He knows it – and he realizes that the entire world knows it.

As a result, he can’t face anyone. He thinks the world is pointing at him and laughing, and his ego can’t handle the public humiliation.

He is no longer the omnipotent king he saw himself as, now that his party has lost control of the House.

The vast majority of the candidates he endorsed and/or campaigned for lost their races, proving that the “Trump embrace” is not a sure win, but box-office poison.

The diversity of those elected – in terms of race, religion, ethnicity and sexual orientation – proved that the majority of the citizenry hasn’t bought into his racism and bigotry.

The myth of Trump being able to “read” the populace was shattered forever. He insisted on immigration being the focus leading up to election night, a move which cost many of his own party members their seats. The “caravan” threat was exposed as what it was from the beginning – a scare tactic with no basis in reality – and the fact that he dropped the subject immediately after the voting was over proved the point beyond all doubt.

In addition to all of the above, Spanky-the-Loser has been rendered defenceless against the powers that the Democratic-controlled House can wield. His days of being able to rely on Republicans in congress enabling his every scatter-brained idea are over. The firewall between himself and any-and-all investigations the Democrats wish to pursue is gone. The time of being accountable only to his own self-serving party members is dead and buried.

Trump is now a capital-L “Loser” – and there isn’t anyone on the planet who isn’t aware of that reality. All that’s left to him now is sitting on the sidelines, pouting like a petulant child.

Spanky’s conduct over the past few days is just the beginning. I’m sure we’ll be seeing more of it in the days to come. He’s the kid who doesn’t want to play anymore after being told that he’s no longer in charge of the rules of the game.

It’s one thing to have a failed business venture, something that can be brushed-off with excuses in front of a boardroom full of investors. It is quite another thing to have a failed presidency taking place in front of the entire world.

At this point, I’d venture to say that Spanky is closer to resignation than impeachment. If he can’t have everything his own way, he’d just as soon take his ball and go home. That’s who he is – that’s who he’s always been.

Thanks Nance. I think you are spot on with this. He is playing a game that he did not draw the rules for and he is losing. I am all too happy to watch him fail miserably.

The entire world has now observed this man's lack of competence and pettiness. No matter what he says, he can't hide his failures anymore and I think that is destroying him.

... that not only is his "base" not big enough to re-elect him, it wasn't even big enough to keep the House out of the Democrat's hands. No doubt he's been deluding himself all along that his "base" was massive.

HE knows he'll be exposed as a treasonous traitor , and a fraud all along very soon. Now he is running out of excuses as his base is running from him now, and the last election shows it. It looks also like its taking a serious toll on his health , and looks bad now. It would not surprise me if he disappears for a week or so from being in the hospital. He knows now its over for him and his gang.

And not a hint of anything resembling normal human emotions, like guilt, embarrassment or humility. Which are all missing in his brain.

best guess he bails as soon as the price is right. Watch for him to try and work some deal where he gives up Office in lieu of possible Jail time for RICO charges. He will be stripped of most Properties and his so called Foundation Funds.

Trump might be pardoned on the Federal level, but he won't be able to escape New York State/City justice. Not with the incoming NYAG Letitia (sp?) James breathing down his neck!

Missed your writing lately.

Need to print this one and tape it to every mirror in our White House. Spanky-the-Loser should have to see it every time he tries to admire his degenerate, decomposing self.

He's exhausted and no longer buoyed up by applause after futility of unprecedented number of rallies that failed to achieve his goal of self-protection. Mueller probe is going strong despite his desperate firing of Sessions and installing Whitaker.

He might as well not bother with any more official events and just head off to Mar-a-Lago for endless golfing in the company of sycophants where he can make some deals while he can.

Trump wanted that Parade for this week, during Veteran's Day. He is pouting about that because the military told him no.

rump and his pathetic, childish behavior.

Pathetic and proof that he's the worst modern day president ever.

I would join those that are laughing at rump, but I'm more inclined to just shake my head sadly, and move on to better, more productive things, such as enhancing the ACA, better pay for our citizens, etc. I hope you don't mind, but I captured part of your statement that said it best:

"As a result, he can’t face anyone. He thinks the world is pointing at him and laughing, and his ego can’t handle the public humiliation."

Drumpf isn’t even conservative, he just pretends to be. Pence will have most of us in chains within a year or two.

Whether its because he resigns, is impeached and forced out, or if I have to wait until 2020 and he gets defeated at the ballot box.

I don't have twitter, but I hope that when it happens, he gets an avalanche of "LOSER!" posts. Just because it would bug him more than any other person alive.
