I have this vision of Trump running around the White House and his aides trying to catch him...

and restrain him from doing anything CRAZY.

I knew he would be bad but now I think he's dangerous and I'm more than a bit scared myself.

I want to believe that there is a doctor in attendance who will medicate him, forcefully if necessary.:.

This is scaring me more than a little bit...

1. His aides are complicit and cheering him on.

[CTyankee]

4. Add that to my anxiety....

[spanone]

6. Mine too.

2. Presidential Day Care

on speed dial ....

3. Unfortunately, he is being egged on by miller, hegseth

bibi, putin, bonesaws, and uae.

[CTyankee]

7. I worry about Hegseth too. This has that Dr. Strangelove feel to it...

but of course, that would never happen, would it?

[Aristus]

5. No. He's waddling around the White House, and no one wants to catch him.

They think Armageddon will bring Jesus back.

We're all in a world of shit...

[CTyankee]

8. Are you just a bit anxious yourself?

[Aristus]

10. Yes.

We're long past the time when we could reassure ourselves that "cooler heads will prevail".

No one has the simple, unspectacular courage it would take to stop a mortal coward in his tracks. People would rather have the world explode than do the simple, decent thing, and remove his hands from the reins of power. They're just not capable of doing the right thing, because they never have been. Courage is a habit.

9. My concern is that Iran will call his bluff and he'll go ballistic.

I envision him in a frenzy, insisting that he personally gets to "push the button" killing thousands.
