Trump is a control freak.

[kentuck]

That's why he cannot fill all the vacant positions in the executive branch. He cannot find the people he knows he can control.

He wants to make all the decisions. He doesn't want to delegate any authority to anyone else.

If you can't do it the way Donald wants, he doesn't want you around.

1. The reason he berates people and organizations is that he cannot control them.

If he perceives that he's in control, he praises and gushes. If not, he calls whatever he can't control a "failure", "loser", or similar pejorative. He's completely predictable in this area.

Think about his relationship to Putin and Russia.

Get used to it, blotus

7. A paranoid narcissist that's incompetent ... aka a useless asshole.

[Glimmer of Hope]

6. All of the above and more.

8. His bubble is completely dependent on him

They dance like monkeys for him. He pits them against each other for his amusement.

He doesn't know how to run an organization of more than a few.
