total fucking revenge. Well, his day will come soon, when he loses power and may end up in a place he will hate even more... an insane asylum.

That way he knows what it is like for those the worst off in our society and he maybe y'know develops some empathy. I mean I guess insane asylum or a orange jumpsuit is a close second though.

heap, it could be a nuclear wasteland along with the rest of the world. I really hope the military is brave enough to defy his orders if he orders a nuke launch, this man makes Nixon's paranoia look normal and sane.

It was President Obama's comments at the Correspondents Dinner. Try to have some fun by directing some harmless roasting at a sociopath and they won't react well. Trump is willing to destroy America over this. His level of depravity is limitless. I've always hated Trump, but I never could have imagined he was such a wounded man. Scary stuff.

That is most definitely the major reason.



And because the NFL wouldn't let him in.

And because someone teased him in school.

And because he is threatened by strong women.

And, mostly, because Trump is an insecure jerk concerned only with himself and no one else. His paybacks have become so commonplace that it's pretty easy to follow the path for his wrath.

In the pocket of the mercers and the koch.

His aim is to turn America into a third world country ruled over by the barons.

It has very little to do with being laughed at.

When Obama joked about him at that dinner, he knew right then and there, what he wanted to do, run for President and if he won, he would DESTROY Obama's legacy.

The grand plan is to completely divorce the people from the federal government. The 20 wealthiest Americans have more combined wealth than half the populace. The Kochs are among the 20 and they drive policy, as well as strategy.

Fomenting and exploiting bigotry, particularly racism, is key to getting people to elect those who want to destroy the safety net and regulations. Absent racism, the Republican Party would cease to be viable. It's the primary tool in their toolkit.

Racism is part of his mental illness or not. I remember seeing an article about a woman whose dad, a Democrat who ended up watching and believing too much FOX NEWS and not only did he become a Republican but he became a racist one as well.... brain washed, most likely.
