That S.O.B has made the whole world miserable. I knew he would be horrible but he has more than exceeded my expectations.

dont have feelings the way you and I do.

This deeply sick, twisted individual displayed all these characteristics and the deplorables voted for him BECAUSE of that.

They aren't called "a cult of personality" for nothing. 45 is a narcissistic sociopath who also uses his "narcissistic defense mechanism" to believe, consciously or not, that he is above the law and is special. No matter what he does is GOOD since it comes from him and he walks on water. If he did do something bad he believes it will never effect him since he is special and this has been confirmed for 71 years. His children, and Jared suffer from this mental illness also.

The man is so mentally deranged and has lived in the ivory tower so long that he thinks the majority of Americans love and adore him. His people shield him from any other thought. We have a Jim Jones personality in the White House, and his administration and Repug Congress is preparing for us the Kool-Aid.

most who advance up the GOP ladder are psychopaths, and they clinically fit the textbook definition! After being raised in the country, the first ones I met after moving away from home totally blew my mind.

It is that they don't feel empathy with other's emotions. The reason they can be so malignant is when they do feel negative emotions they attack - but they do suffer emotional pain.

OTOH, as long as he's lashing out at congressional repigs, maybe he'll make them angry enough to do something about him. They'd have to prefer Pence.

Wait until he sees what Mueller and Schneiderman have in store for him. Then he will really know what miserable is.

The article refers to him as a "free spirit". What a joke! That makes him sound so benign. He isn't a free spirit, he's an immature, selfish, geriatric asshole.

having a KFC induced heart attack in front of me . While he is on the floor I kick him in the nuts and spit on him. I don't think I could be cruel enough to actually do it but I never hated anyone with such a passion until this sub-human came along.

Though yesterday I did find myself wondering why he couldnt just have a heart attack and spare the nation three years of his inanity.

That goes for Cohn and Tillerson too. Who would even want a job in that administration? You'd have to be a glutton for punishment or into the M side of S&M.

Nothing good ever comes of being associated with Trump and that should be abundantly clear by now.

17. What the hell does he want credit FOR?
Fri Sep 1, 2017, 07:28 PM

He hasn't done anything to deserve recognition or credit! Everything he has done is total crap. His only accomplishment has been the undoing of everything President Obama did for the people of the United States. And for that he wants CREDIT?

Besides, he can't get credit in the United States. After filing for bankruptcy so many times, and stiffing everyone that does work for him, his credit worthiness is ZERO! That's why he's had to depend on the "kindness" of the Russians so many times, and why he's being investigated by the House, the Senate, and Mueller.

So take your "credit" and shove it where the sun don't shine, snowflake!

He resents the obligations of the office. He resents having to learn about anything he has no interest in. He resents the scrutiny. He resents being held accountable . He resents having his life scheduled. He resents the pushback, any pushback.

His resentment fuels his anger which in turn fuels his maliciousness (transgender military ban, DACA ...). His instinct is to strike out , to make others feel his pain.That's why he always has a whipping boy handy (Spicer,Sessions, Priebus ...). If he is miserable, than everyone must share in his misery. He takes glee in seeing others suffer (it may well be the only thing that truly makes him happy- Harvey was probably the highlight of his week).

I'm thrilled he's miserable, but it doesn't comfort me.
