Trump is gradually losing what he has left of his impulse control.

And his impulses are destructive, vengeful and hate-filled.

Whether the cause is mental degradation or a combination of megalomania and arrogance the results are the same.

And there is no-one in his orbit or party who will refuse his demands be they petty or heinous.

Sad state of affairs we have.

He’s really scared that he’s losing so he’s throwing everything out there in desperation trying to control the narrative by changing the subject.

His attack on Cummings is because Elijah Cummings has said he can go after Ivanka and Jared. Trump doesn’t give a shit about Baltimore. He just wants to jerk everyone’s chain to change the subject. He’s so afraid he’s desperate and he’s making mistakes. His Achilles heel is probably Ivanka, if he even has one. Being a narcissist there is no guarantee he would never throw her under the bus.

volatile with each passing day. True nature of a Narcissistic Psychopath me thinks. Spend a childhood living with one,and then one day they attempt to end it all and take others with them.

Use to say,that the fuse was always lit,and you never knew when the Powder Keg would let go.

working his way into the center of Fifth Avenue and the gun is loaded.

"Go ahead - prove me wrong................."

He truly believes it - for sure.

Psychiatrists and behavior analysts to see what they can say to set him off in front of the cameras.

Maybe some questions about Ivanka's patents and tariff exemptions? She's fair game since she's conducting grifting inside the WH.

That's the only thing I would change.

He always demanded that he be addressed as "Mr. Trump" at his properties, his business, his fake TV show, etc., before he was seated in the presidency.

he has not kept any of his absurd 2016 campaign promises. He has a record of doing nothing as president and doesn't want anyone talking about that.
