The Senate trial: Are we going to fail to address a major reason why we have reached this point?

Should the Democrats also put Trumps mental health on trial? Trump should be put on trial for his crimes and removed from office. However, We have also reached this moment because Trump is seriously mentally ill. Trump is a textbook narcissist who possesses deadly obsessions.

He is a narcissistic liar. That is very dangerous. His obsessions include breaking rules, breaking laws, committing crimes. Trump has no control over his obsessions. A narcissist does not control their obsessions, their obsessions control them. A narcissist who is a serial killer cannot stop killing. Only the law can stop him. A narcissist who commit crimes will never stop until they are stopped by the law. Trump gets unimaginable pleasure from his obsessions. They drive and energize him. They control every second of his life.

Could the Democrats call the best mental heath experts in the country to testify? They could explain to every one watching what a narcissist is. They could explain how dangerous they can be. They could explain the traits of a narcissist, which the American people would recognize because Trump suffers from all of them. They could be asked, What would happen if a narcissist with deadly obsessions is unbound from the rule of law? Will their obsessions decrease or increase?

Shouldn't one of the goals of the Democrats during the trial be this. Scare the living shit out of the American people.

The Republicans believe the impeachment and acquittal of Trump is good for them politically. The truth is it will not be good for anybody.

The truth is, if they acquit Trump they will be freeing a narcissist with deadly obsessions from the rule of law and the constitution. We will lose control of our fate. Our fate will be in the hands of Trump, a man who is extremely mentally ill. A man who's obsessions will be unbound by the rule of law.
