Hilarious! MSNBC cut the sound from his ravings and put a talking head on...

[TreasonousBastard]

Without sound, he looks even more insane.

1. I just saw that "I am the Chosen One" remark.

[TreasonousBastard]

6. Scary, isn't it?

[nolabear]

8. Bizarre. I can't figure him out.

Is he serious? Signaling to the minions that he can claim whatever he wants? So dismissive of them that he can use them to tweak us? He’s so chaotic and unraveled it’s impossible to know what’s going on. He’s the human equivalent of one of those automatic weapons they love so. Indiscriminately harmful.

[TreasonousBastard]

9. I'm pretty well convinced he has no idea what he's saying. Words blurt out...

and because he said them, they must be true.

He's a cross between a carnival barker and the blowhard at the end of the bar.

[nolabear]

10. True dat. You can hear him echo turns of phrase and statements by others.

I can’t quote them but he does it constantly. He throws them in at inappropriate times as if he’s heard them and they practically drown out what’s being talked about at the time.

Honestly, I think he’s just barely hanging on and has been for his whole life.

[Fozzledick]

11. "The Chosen One" to defeat China sounds to me like Falun Gong rhetoric.

That's the level of crazy he's dug down to.

[shanti]

12. Rachel went down that

Falun Gong rabbit hole last night.

[Fozzledick]

13. That's what struck me about his statement today.

It's the same phrase they use to explain their support for him.

[shanti]

14. Have you seen the Netflix show "The Family"?

It is part of this issue too.

[Fozzledick]

17. Aware of the cult but haven't watched the show.

They may use the same phrase, but his use of it in the context of confronting China struck me as an obvious connection.

[nolabear]

16. I saw that. They are strange, strange people.

They’re all just beyond. Read about Shen Yun, the “Chinese Traditional Dance Troupe” that seems to be everywhere all the time. It’s Falun Gong and is as crazy cult as it gets.

I can’t even pick sides any more.

2. He's now blasting NBC and CNN.

[TreasonousBastard]

4. OMIGOD! CNN still has him on! It seems to be repeating some of the earlier rant...

and he seems to actually believe his own bullshit.

A proper liar knows he lying and the lies have a purpose, for good or evil.

Insanity is pouring bullshit out and believing it because you said it.

[Fozzledick]

15. I think he's finally crossed the line from sociopath to psychopath.

Until now I agreed with those who said that he's a sociopath, not a psychopath; the difference being that a sociopath is clever and self aware enough to conceal his malice and dishonesty behind a slick veneer of apparent normalcy, while a psychopath is unable to control his irrational behavior enough to maintain the appearance of normalcy.

I think we've now seen him cross the line.

[maxsolomon]

3. Is this Chopper Talk or a more formal presser?

regardless, it's all pointless - he's just aping the actions of a president.

[TreasonousBastard]

5. Chopper talk.

[Blue Owl]

7. Chop & Blow

n/t

[GoCubsGo]

18. They should just play the "Chopper Talk" theme song, instead.
