(25,479 posts)"Crooked Hillary" was classic projection. It's what he does best, he's very transparent about it, and it's kind of amazing how so many can't see right through it even though it couldn't be more obvious.

Gosh, if I hadn't slept through Psych 101 in my freshman year, I might have some idea about what's going on here.

(3,630 posts)He has always been a boorish twat, but he seems to be losing his grip on proportion. This may be partly because the feedback he is getting is that everything seems to be working no matter how outrageous it is, and/or partly because he is entirely losing the ability to tell when something is truly outrageous. The more he gets like this the greater the chances he will finally encounter a "have you no decency" moment when a critical mass of those who support him simply can't do the doublethink any more.
