I think that we need to start treating Trump as if he has narcissistic personality disorder

The man clearly has issues and the last thing that we need, as a country, is to allow him any control over us. http://www.wikihow.com/Deal-with-a-Narcissist

Frankly, if this country could stage an intervention, that would be the best thing ever...

At this point, we can only do that in a collective way at the polls in November. But I'm sure that beforehand, plenty of folks are going to take to the streets.

Cleveland portends to be crazy.

Well, I am.. I usually do not even read posts about the guy.

I don't watch TV, don't read the papers, CNN is on at the "Y", so there is that face up there on the wall.

But you are right, the dumbing down of American citizens is, I think, beyond redemption.

His thin-skinned inability to broach ANY criticism makes him look like a big baby.

As we've just seen with the proposed debate with Bernie, his MO is to bloviate and call attention to himself (It will get great ratings. I'll make them pay $10Million for charity.) but when someone calls his bluff, he makes an excuse and retreats. Frankly, the media should have been doing this months ago.

He needs to be SHAMED. It won't be easy but a constant assault will eventually (hopefully) crack his narcicistic armor.He needs to see what a buffoon he is and he needs to see just how STUPID his supporters are.
