Any chance trump's laying the groundwork for an insanity defense?

[NightWatcher]

He's been acting trumpier IN THE PAST TWO DAYS than he has in three years, and that's saying something.

Any chance he's going to claim that he was an idiot manipulated by the big mean Russians? (I mean it IS what actually happened).

I'm joining the chorus of "what the fuck is causing him to tweet this nonsense" crowd. Something is going on behind the scenes that is bugging him the chicken fried fuck out of his feeble little mind.

I fully expect him to be racing little balls of poop around his desk like racing cars by next week. Vroom vroom.

1. Anything is possible with trump

narcissists will manipulate things in their favor all the time, they will pretend to be sick to get out of something they did, but don't want to take the blame, which they never do. So I put nothing past trump, he will do anything he can to get out of the trouble he knows will come after him if he loses the election next year.

2. Every day for the last three plus years

What else do you call this shit show?

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

3. No, because his ego would never let him admit he's nuts.

[Snarkoleptic]

4. I've been musing about that for a while.

Here's how I see it playing out.
1) Trump declares some sort of medical diagnosis and resigns as POTUS.
2) Pence hands out pardons like after-dinner mints, to everyone in his orbit.
3) Dems sweep both houses and POTUS, have to spend years cleaning up Trump's toxic mess.

5. That's one helluva defense there

[spanone]

6. as long as he leaves I don't care, he is destroying America by the day

[kozar]

7. Wouldn't he need to prove,

that he wasn't insane, AT "time of the offense"? why would him acting insane now matter? I just thought legally he would have to prove himself insane at time of offense, which would be when he was pre president and all. maybe a DU lawyer can help on this

8. Insanity defense for what purpose?

[Fozzledick]

9. Nah, he's too crazy to plan that rationally.

[onenote]

10. Defense to what?

[StarfishSaver]

11. No

12. Early this morning I said exactly that to my hubby, and

lo and behold - just a few hours later, there he was! Crazier than usual, almost too obvious.

[NightWatcher]

14. Tomorrow he outlaws gravity or name's gravy to his Cabinet

13. Bwah HAH!1

15. Vincent "Chin" Gigante

NYC Mobster, he spent decades feigning insanity and STILL he died . . . . in prison.

16. Sane or insane...when he is out of office

Treat him like he’s poor or a minority.
Sanity hearing - can he determine right from wrong; Do not care if he is batshit crazy.
Charge him.
Convict him.
Lock his ass up - and let years of prison time cure his mind.
He won’t be the first and certainly not the last - mentally challenged person to do time.
