“[I]t does approach that kind of cult behavior — including the MAGA hats and the willingness to expose themselves to a lethal pathogen — because loyalty to the cult leader requires it. And his grandiosity is now . . . to the point where there is a sense that he is immortal or invulnerable or invincible. He could conquer the virus by being this Superman-great leader. Now he’s on dexamethasone, which is a steroid known to produce euphoria and grandiosity and psychosis as a side effect for some patients. If you have a tendency in that direction in the first place, it probably doesn’t help. But, yes, it’s become more florid, certainly. as time has gone by. And then, of course, the incitements to violence and the paranoia have similarly become more explicit — more frequent. And now, he is retrieving wilder and wilder conspiracy theories and obsessing with particular enemies. So I would say that you can’t really know his mental status without a direct examination, but what we see of his mental status looks more floridly disturbed as time has gone by.”—Dr. Judith Herman, co-founder of the Victims of Violence Program and psychiatry professor at Harvard Medical School, warning about Donald Trump’s mental health.
“I’m about the best thing that has ever happened to Puerto Rico. You better vote for me Puerto Rico.”—Donald Trump, announcing the release of $13 billion to rebuild Puerto Rico’s electric grid and repair schools exactly three years after he tossed those rolls of paper towels at Puerto Rican crowds following the second of two major hurricanes devastated the island. [Uh, you do know, don’t you, Mr. Genius, that Puerto Rico does not vote in presidential elections? But you’re right about one thing: it is surrounded by water, lots of water, wet water.]
“So many of Trump’s supporters look like extras from Deliverance!—Tweet by Glyn Sanders. [I thought I heard banjos.]
“Be not afraid of the accusations that you’re a voter suppressor, you’re a racist and so forth.”—J. Christian Adams, president of the Public Interest Legal Foundation, in describing mail-in voting as “the number-one left-wing agenda.” [Oh, I don’t think the Republicans have ever been afraid of such accusations; they’re rather proud of the fact.]
NOT A TRUMP QUOTE, but it should be (with apologies to Cavin & Hobbes):
TRUMP: I’m a genius, but I’m a misunderstood genius.
BARR: What’s misunderstood about you?
TRUMP: Nobody thinks I’m a genius.

Even if the first item had validity, I remain convinced (fully) that he is a psychopath and there really isn’t any way I know of to amplify that. As he would say, “It is what it is.” It might become even more apparent, if that is possible, but there aren’t degrees of psychopathy – you either are, or are not – and he is. To me, that’s all one really needs to know. If you like it you will vote for him. If you don’t, you will vote for Biden. You WILL NOT do as I have heard people being interviewed say, “I’ll just leave that part of the ballot blank.” Doing so is a vote for the incumbent.
Is it true that the Trump campaign is planning to serve KoolAid at the
super spreader events?
“Herd immunity is another word for mass murder,” said Dr. William Haseltine the former head of Harvard Medical School and Harvard School of Public Health on CNN’s’ “New Day.” I’m extremely concerned that the president is being advised by people who speak of herd immunity.
If the virus is allowed to grow, unchecked, in hopes of wearing itself out, “we are looking at two to six million Americans dead, not just this year, but every year,” Haseltine added. “The reason for that is that there is no such thing as herd immunity.”
But the grifter, all pumped up on steroids, keeps pushing it. Maybe he thinks it will kill all the Democrats and only Republicans will be left standing.
They do look like extras from Deliverance don’t they?
This is not a joke….I got a copy of KiethObermann’s Trump is F**king Crazy at The View in NYC in 2017. The Republican Party is advising him. We must vote and the Democracy/republic will stand, although much wounded, I do not miss any of the “F**Kbook friends who have unliked me and I do not have any feelings for the “kool aid” repugnicans who are trying to screw me out of money they owe me, for at least 7 years, well I lied I still have the red ass. ron thompson
You know, Ron… I can always count on you to put a smile on my face. I was going to skip the Town Halls this evening, but now I’m thinking I might want to turn Biden’s on so afterwards when trump looks at the ratings he’ll find my digitus medius manus saluting him.
