(11,612 posts)Sometimes I wonder who these stupid fucking tweets are designed to sway... how many times a day do you need to shore up the ignorant redneck base in rural areas? Surely no-one else believes 85% of this shit?

(1,483 posts)Wow. That's a blast from the past. I remember the days when I was meant to be in fear of ISIS.
Man. That brings back memories.

(1,483 posts)Yeah. ISIS. Next he's going to start rage tweeting about Communists or better yet trying to get us all pissed off at Germany and Japan. Or Barbary Pirates.
Keep current Trump! Our nation's enemy this year is TRUMP!

He just doesn't give a shit about anything or anyone but himself.
I do think he is deathly afraid of Putin. And he should be.

This is a desperate attempt to distract attention from the investigations.

(7,142 posts)Was Hitler mentally ill or just plain evil? Hitler had one of the best smoking cessation programs in our history. Hitler knew of the dangers of asbestos and kept his workers protected.
I haven't seen Trump do anything that benefits anyone other than himself, is that normal? His charitable foundation that was just shut down gave nothing to charity, is that normal?
I don't have a clue if Trump is mentally ill, if he is I agree, he didn't choose to be, but I do agree that Trump chooses to be evil and that choice may be a sign of mental illness, especially coming from the president of the United States.

(23,061 posts)Russia is exulting in their win, PUtin is totally gloating in front of the world about "Donald" doing the right thing. In other words drumpf followed his masters' orders to give the Syrian Kurds up to Turkey in exchange for them not showing the world that drumpf through squeaky voice Kushner, was part and parcel of killing Khashoggi. This is a definite trade IMO. drumpf protecting his own murdering ways instead of protecting America our our allies - sickening.

(1,588 posts)and asked that he please consider removing him from office that I am scared for the safety of our nation due to this behavior and our Defense department not knowing what is going on. I also mentioned the fact that the Russians knew he lied to the American people by the proof of the signed papers for the Moscow tower that has come to light and not knowing what other compromising evidence they may have against him. I asked that he please consider taking action to remove him from office considering he was not even a Republican only a few years ago.

(25,816 posts)He's not mentally ill. He's a toxic narcissist, pure and simple. He has zero understanding of anything, and has the mental age and intellectual capacity of a not very bright three year old, and believes that anything he says is true.

(22,541 posts)Besides, if someone is truly mentally ill do we then mock them and belittle them and call them crazy? Because that really sounds like something Republicans would do.

(17,984 posts)ISIS still exists. We are leaving the area, ostensibly so that fewer people will be able to fight ISIS. When ISIS is allowed to grow into a threat to the US, then we will be able to defeat them.
Mama, remember you were worried about that bear that was prowling around in the woods? Well, I went out there and poked it, gave it some really hard pokes. I couldn't kill it, though. But if that bear ever comes to the house, then I will kill it because I'm tough. Never mind that I couldn't kill it the first time. It will be different if it ever comes onto my home turf.
What the ever living fuckity fuck fuck kind of reasoning is this?
