when we analyze this administration, we have to look for the psychological “tells” in a way we didn’t with other president, no matter their politics, weren’t emotional 5-year-olds who lived in an impenetrable image bubble created/maintained by staff and their propagandists with press passes.

“When she [Noem] is talking about how merely showing up and inciting violence based on ideology against the government, when this administration has pardoned hundreds of Jan. 6th rioters who have then gone out into the streets and recommitted crimes of violence over and over again,” she continued.

Trump’s governing regime is a version of patrimonialism, in which the state is treated as the personal property/family business of the leader.his deployment of performative brutality, his ostentatious violation of rights, his creation of a national paramilitary police-more sinister than gangsterism.

No one likes a narcissist. People tolerate them because they're afraid of their wrath. We heard how he “negotiates” it's like a mob boss, not a businessman

What businessman has 6 bankruptcies & whose former CFO served time for lying, cheating, & stealing? Call him what he is..a career criminal.

71 percent of Americans think the United States is “out of control.” Another poll from the New York Times and Siena University finds nearly half of voters think the country is worse off now than when Trump took office a year ago. (Trump said he was adding this poll to his lawsuit against the Times.)

the DOJ has become Trump’s private law firm, devoted to blackmailing, intimidating, and persecuting Trump’s foes while selectively enforcing the law to spare allies who break it. The chairman of the Federal Reserve reveals the DOJ has been blackmailing him into lowering interest rates

No one can stop President Trump “from directing the Justice Department to indict his enemies for non-crimes while ignoring or pardoning the actual crimes of his political allies. He is free to be a tyrant, because the boss is the boss,”

"If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate & House to start to take control of political power in America because with this erratic & mad behaviour, you have to ask the question, is the President capable of running the US?"
