Donald Trump has gone off the deep end for real: He's a danger to humanity
Even by his standards, Trump has gone berserk on social media since the last indictment. Drop this guy, America

(Salon) Donald Trump's insanity is a clear and present danger to the existence of humanity.

Facing 78 felonies in three different jurisdictions, with a grand jury in Fulton County, Georgia, still waiting to weigh in — and perhaps facing additional federal charges or possible state charges in Michigan, Arizona and elsewhere — Donald Trump has spent the last few days spewing forth an extraordinary level of venom, even for him. While our current president is dealing with the economy, an overseas war and increased aggression in the Middle East and Asia, Trump is running for president hoping to avoid prison time, while also seeking revenge for his 2020 defeat. He is unquestionably insane, either temporarily or for good.

Perhaps he's setting himself up to plead diminished mental capacity after a slew of recent posts on his favorite social media platform that sound like a horrible cry for help. Call it the wailing of the banshees or whatever else you want, but Trump now seems the living embodiment of Edvard Munch's famous 1893 painting in oil tempera, pastel and crayon, "The Scream." He is out there with only his Kool-Aid drinkers beside him as he melts down into a puddle of sweat, makeup and a Rodney Dangerfield suit.

On stage in New Hampshire this week, standing behind a bright light that cast harsh shadows and resembled for all the world a prison-yard searchlight focused on an escaped con, Donald Trump erupted against several of his enemies for a variety of fictional slights. His latest target was Fani Willis, the Atlanta prosecutor who is likely to present evidence before a grand jury next week that could lead to an extensive array of racketeering charges related to the last presidential election. Trump has called Willis (who is Black) a "racist" and spread stories that she "ended up having an affair with the head of a gang or a gang member." She wants to prosecute him, Trump said, for another "perfect phone call," one even "more perfect" than the call with Volodymyr Zelenskyy that got him impeached in 2019. (In the more recent call, if you're keeping score, Trump asked the Georgia secretary of state to "find" him thousands of nonexistent votes.)

....(snip)....

That's hardly the only evidence that Trump has lost his tenuous grasp on reality. Other posts have been filled with images of hell, and include outrageous, inflammatory attacks on former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi: "She is a wicked witch whose husbands [sic] journey from hell starts and finishes with her. She is a sick and demented psycho who will someday live in HELL!" .............(more)

1. He is a terrorist...

He has been a classic male abuser/ abusive male since he began to campaign in 2015.....he has evolved into a full fledged terrorist.

Every day since 2015 we have suffered as a society under this puny male.

I do not really feel validated by our leadership but the Jack Smith and Fani Willis prosecutions are helping.

Every fucking day we are held captive by tRumps desires...

5. When she saw how upset I was after the election, a friend told me, "It's just four years."

Too many people underestimated the damage he could do & as someone who didn't, I admit even I was stunned. I don't know how we unite cuz I'm not sitting across the table from a bunch zealots, Nazis, & loons to try to find common ground.

[Joinfortmill]

21. I'm with you. Denounce Trump or f*ck off.

[mopinko]

2. i find it soooo disturbing that at this point in history so few recognize a mad man

for what he is.
pls ja, drop the veil for them.

[viva la]

3. CNN had some inane article about how Trump voters in Iowa still think he's just peachy

It was one of those indulgent articles that profiled a few idiots and presented their idiotic views about how Trump was a great president and things had gone to hell since, and how many he was kind of rough around the edges but he speaks the truth, gag.

Anyway, I do wonder if those credulous Trumpers can actually read this:
"She is a wicked witch whose husbands [sic] journey from hell starts and finishes with her. She is a sick and demented psycho who will someday live in HELL!"


And think that a normal sane adult wrote that.
Those of us who actually know what happened to Paul Pelosi-- that a crazed Trump-addled man almost killed him in his own home with a hammer-- know that that Trump said was even worse than stupid. It was vicious and threatening. He knows the man was one of his, and would have killed both Pelosis if he could have. And knowing that, he's reveling in remembering that and calling for more violence on them.

When is one of those CNN reporters going to say to a nice Iowan Trumper, "Can I read you something Trump said recently? Now that you've heard that, would you ask this man to babysit your children?"

4. What I find disturbing

What I find disturbing is that the ones that follow the madman have almost all the fire power. The sane people don't devote their lives to building arsenals in their homes.

12. And isn't it odd...

Isn’t it odd that these gun fetishists claim to need their beloved guns to defend against tyranny, yet they immediately fell to their knees to worship the orange tyrant when he showed up?

[Aristus]

6. In March of 2020, I predicted a Biden win and that Trump would be indicted on 78 charges.

I was pretty close. (some of my predictions are sadly out of date. RIP RBG)

11. Impressive all the same

However I don't believe Melania will ever be deported. She may choose to leave on her own, but she'd have to leave the anchor-baby behind, and I don't see that happening. Melania could file for divorce, but why bother? She probably believes he'll be dead soon anyway.

17. don't you know she figured he would have kicked the bucket by now when she signed up

7. He wrote this on truth social last night - always projection with him

"OUR COUNTRY IS BEING DESTROYED BY A MAN WITH THE MIND, IDEAS, AND I.Q. OF A FIRST GRADER. THIS INVASION OF OUR COUNTRY MUST STOP IMMEDIATELY. IT CANNOT BE ALLOWED TO CONTINUE!" he added.

That was followed with a second Truth Social post in which he ranted,

"I think that Crooked Joe Biden is not only dumb and incompetent, I believe he has gone MAD, a stark raving Lunatic, with his HORRIBLE AND COUNTRY THREATENING ENVIRONMENTAL, OPEN BORDERS, & DOJ/FBI WEAPONIZATION POLICIES. HE IS A MENTAL CATASTROPHE THAT IS LEADING OUR COUNTRY TO HELL!"

[LudwigPastorius]

9. "...IQ OF A FIRST GRADER."

The Stable Genius doesn’t know how IQ tests work.

Most first graders have the same IQ as the rest of the population of adults tested, 80 - 120.

[RVN VET71]

16. That's worse than even I thought

FATSO sounds very much like a man who has lost his ability to reason or function. If this intellectually barren narcissist ever gets back in the seat of power, the Western World will likely have to put Caligula and Nero into second and third place among its historic cruel and vile rulers.

And should he win reelection, he has the toadies and flying monkeys who will love the opportunity to show their master the depth of their loyalty and carry out his increasingly barbaric wishes.

[tanyev]

18. To be fair,

our country IS being destroyed by a man with the mind, ideas, and IQ of a first grader. But his name isn’t Joe Biden.

[Joinfortmill]

23. Amazing. Look in the mirror, traitor.

[Rhiannon12866]

25. Like Lawrence O'Donnell said tonight:

"Trump's social media outburst offers an accurate diagnosis of himself" He was spot on!

[JohnnyRingo]

8. For goodness sakes, read the entire article!

She lays out quite a case for Trump deserving a mental ward named after him instead of a library.
Very well written

Thanx for posting!

[PatSeg]

14. Yes, it is an excellent article, worth the read

[patphil]

10. Wow! Trump is really afraid of Nancy Peolsi...to the point of being deranged.

[slightlv]

19. He can't stand any women to hold any kind of power

over him... that's why he has to denigrate, demean, and abuse every one of them. He truly does have a huge problem with women... and if you trace it back, he probably has a big "mama" problem that kicked it all off. (Not that I care, it's no excuse).

And a woman of color to the formula, and it trips him over to mental overload. But really... it's ANY woman.

[twodogsbarking]

20. You nailed it. Ten.

[keep_left]

13. Did Trump really use that moronic expression, the "perfect phone call", yet again?!

WTF is a "perfect phone call", let alone one that is "even more perfect"?!

I have never heard anyone else use the idiotic lexicon that Trump does. This "perfect call" nonsense just makes me feel like I'm going insane. Maybe it's a petty thing to critique, but Trump continues to use it seemingly incessantly.

[Escurumbele]

15. One thing the article gets wrong is to think that the buffoon "has lost his grip in reality"

The SOB has never had a grip on reality, he thinks the World rotates around him, he thinks he is a genius, the best looking man in the World, etc. etc. One cannot be more disassociated from reality than that.

Please universe, help the USA, and the World, keep this guy in a place where we don't have to listen, hear, or read about him at all, just let us know when you call him.

[Joinfortmill]

24. Yes, alone would be a good place for him.
