    One of the international news guy at the radio station I listen has been saying since day 1 that Trump has a narcissic personality disorder and needs mental help. I took that with a grain of salt, but everything he does thus far does seem to point towards this: Trump wants to look like he's right all the time, he wants to be liked, even one of his friends said the job of president won't be good for his mental health because he wants to be liked by everyone.

    It's also really hard for me to tell if he's really incompetant and doesn't know how things work, or if he's just faking it. So much for a president that wanted to get rid of the establishment: his cabinet is full of the establishment with oil companies, billionnaires and wall street itself.

    Had similar disussion with a guildie who supports trump, who said and i quote "Trump as president means all terrorists are kept out of the country"
    yeah because when IRA relentlessly attacked the UK we banned all irish people.
    wake up folks, thats not how it works, and the banned countries arent even on the main terror list.

    Take the time, and watch his press conference from yesterday (don't watch clips, or read a summary, watch the whole damn hour+ if you can) and your questions about his mental health should be thoroughly answered (and if that is an act, he deserves an Oscar).

    ...oh, wow. I... I have to come clean, guys. I thought Trump was a psycho, but this article really opened my eyes.

    https://extranewsfeed.com/why-libera...2a7#.ips7of4xm

    On a more serious note, wow, apparently Tillerson and the State Department as a whole are also out of the loop:

    https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...P=share_btn_tw

    Senior state department officials who would normally be called to the White House for their views on key policy issues, are not being asked their opinion. They have resorted to asking foreign diplomats, who now have better access to President Trump’s immediate circle of advisers, what new decisions are imminent.

    Give the reporters an Oscar for hold straight faces. I would've either been laughing or worried. Its like he thinks he is a benevolent god-king trying to understand why people aren't worshiping him. "Bannon, why can't I reach them?!? They want for not but still don't like me. "

    Your username and the content of this comment sync up remarkably well. Keep ignoring current events and lemme know how that turns out for you as this shit wears on. After all, its not like anything else the big bad 'left' has warned you guys about has happened yet...oh wait...All of it has. Get a clue.

    It's not about right or left. It's about trump being trump. I would celebrate all night long if Mike Pence got to be president instead of trump and I disagree with almost everything the republicans stand for.

    Did you know that most dictators around the world were once elected legitimately? This is a pseudo-argument to make, him being elected does not make him a good president. And you also need to educate yourself as to what anti-democracy really is.

Keep up with the fake outrage and identity politics. You're losing.
    Facts, by definition, cannot be skewed. Unless you are trying to parrot Kellyanne Conway and her "alternative facts" bullshit. It isn't fake outrage when even Fox News and Republicans are calling for investigations into his possible treasonous doings with Russia. But keep those partisan blinders on.

    Therefore, following your logic they do exist.
    Just because you call them the "alt-left" doesn't make it true. There are people that self-identify as alt-right though. Steve Bannon and Milo Yiannopolous to name at least 2. Simply because of Breitbart and their bullshit falsehoods.

    Where did they lie? Because everything so far that has been leaked has come out to be confirmed so far. You are the one that needs to grow up and come out of that every decreasing bubble you are stuck in.

    Because making minorities jump through extra hoops compared to white people is actually against the law. That is why he was sued. If you don't know that, then you don't know the racist history of Donald Trump.

    I think with the new news that Russia is trying to influence other elections in Europe, it is safe to say the Trump probably has no ties to Russia. I need hard evidence to believe it. Trump could just do us all a solid though and release his tax returns.

    Donal duck.. Ehm I mean Trumph .. Got some issues. I'm European -so I might not be as much into this as some Americans would/should be, but all I hear from the media is one terrible mistake after another. His behavior also seems way out of line from what would/should be expected from a leader. I'm afraid that his "blackmail" strategy against EU will end up hurting USA in the long run. Same goes for the aggressive approach he have towards Asia.
    He is seriously going to hurt the diplomacy with everyone - except Russia.

    I love this kind of threads. You live your life, meet mostly regular folks, who just want to live their lives and don't really care about the pointless dramas. Then you come here, and, from reading these threads, you get the impression that everybody is being oppressed by some kind of a global cult that calls everyone sexist, racist and homophobic - and that will be defeated by the mighty Trumpet.

    Have you folks ever tried giving up drugs, mushrooms or whatever you are consuming?

    I'm a little alarmed by those who wish to see the US burn via a Trump presidency, as that's kind of the opposite of what you want in the President of your country (assuming you are American). Most people who have actually done something with their lives typically don't want everything crashing down around it. Just a thought.

    And to address a point made earlier, and reinforce another one, the US has no "Left." Just a whole lot of variations of Right, if you're willing to put a label on people. Personally, I don't believe you can sum up someone's political motivations and beliefs with just a single word; there's always more to the story.

    I'm rather disappointed in Trump, though, but not for the usual reasons. I think he had a major opportunity to bring some unity to the American populace, being an outsider. I didn't believe he would, but there was always that chance he'd go more moderate. Alas, all a false hope. Perhaps the Pretzel Assassin will return to amuse us once again.
