3. One of the most uncomfortable scenes in filmdom

Brilliantly acted, wonderful. Yet Queeg does something that Trump will never do: he realizes that he's sick, and that his problems were caused by himself most of all. Of course, if I recall, Queeg was also the survivor of combat and e cracked because of it; his mental instability was the result of watching men die, and from the terrible burden of command in such situations.

Would Trump crack because he'd given orders that resulted in the deaths of people? Or would he blame Obama and Pelosi and Schumer and invaders from the 3 Mexicos? (That's a rhetorical question.)

Can you imagine Trump on a psychiatrist's couch? How could anyone treat this guy's mental illness?

Totally incapable of seeing himself. It’s got to be narcissism or something close. I wish someone who understands various types of true craziness would analyze (as best as they could) what is really happening in the brain of this “ genius”.
