He takes uppers, you can see it when he's all animated, sniffing all the time and making zero sense, just ranting. He took Adderall for a long time and I now believe has moved on to snorting some kind of upper. Don't know if it's Coke or crushed Adderall, but there's some reason he goes from barely walking to a wind up screaming unfocused memie when he's at a rally or has an important meeting. Also the constant sniffing is a dead give-away. I know I've been there and moved 3000 to get away from this and successfully regain my life.

No man of his age, with his lack of sleep, terrible diet and total lack of exercise, can keep up the pace he's on when he's "up". And then there's the crashes, where he won't leave the White House family residence all day. He's on some kind of junk, that's for sure. Congress should mandate a thorough independent physical and mental examination, including blood screening for drugs. Fat chance of that with the GOP still in charge of the Senate, though.

even when all others pictured are apparently drinking white. It's possible he's drinking grape juice for the toast(s) -- and I believe he's been said to toast with Diet Coke.

Doesn't explain the teetotaler owning wine and vodka brands, however.

That court filings are not “news”. CNN isn’t prosecuting Flynn, manafuck and Cohen.

Also hilarious to yell about fake news then follow it up with two quotes in support of him. Makes it look like he is calling them fake lol.

Jerome Corsi: ”This is not justice, this is not America.
This is a political prosecution. The Special Prosecutor
(Counsel), to get this plea deal, demanded I lie and
violate the law. They’re the criminals.” He is not alone.
17 Angry Dems. People forced to lie. Sad! @Trish_Regan

Who is he talking about? Cohen? Flynn? Why would anyone, especially those that have worked with him, and supported him, and his policies, agree to lie, to purger themselves, especially for 17 angry Democrats? If he is innocent, and if they can honestly back that up, wouldn't that be better for themselves and for Trump himself? But I know, this is coming from an unstable imbecile. There is no sufficient explanation.

At the minimum, the fact that president is on social media constantly wagging his cock means he's not paying attention to the job. We've had both R & D Presidents with more responsible work ethics. Even if we don't bother with the details of what he did, he's a BAD PRESIDENT who was a also a BAD EXECUTIVE.

He calls it a conspiracy, but it's a conspiracy of voters, and he can sit and spin on it.

At this point, he has no redeeming qualities. Not one. He doesn't understand government. He doesn't understand the economy. He doesn't have the ability to see the overall big picture to develop a coherent foreign policy. He is a nightmare in social situations.

I could go on and on...

And all of this could be over tomorrow if the house and the Senate got together and said enough is enough.

But that won't happen. Republicans hate our country.

the totally artificial limits on characters does give Dotard's rants a gasping for air cadence. Like he is out of breath and can only yell one sentence at a time, having to pause and gather the strength to shout his next thoughts. Nicely reflects the nature of someone who is so unfit that he needs a stretch limousine and an eight car motorcade to merely cross the street. Quite sad that he is so low energy that he doesn't have the stamina to issue a full statement, having to rest between outbursts of thought...

But I wouldn't say Trump is losing it. He's getting ahead of it, sending messages to his cult followers how they should think about what's coming and how to respond. He is at war. I wouldn't underestimate him. He's very effective doing this, which is why he does it. His followers don't get a chance to read or hear anything and form an independent thought. Trump has already told them what to think about what's coming.
