Idiot says he's receiving accolades for Florence preparations

[malaise]

That fucker is sick.

[Siwsan]

1. Maybe those accolades are coming from the voices in his head

[bdamomma]

16. Schizophrenia

I wouldn't doubt it.

[TheCowsCameHome]

2. He's high on his glowing Puerto Rico ratings.

He's a sick puppy.

[malaise]

5. My paternal grandma used to say

Self praise is no recommendation - he never learned that. In fact he praises himself when he fails abysmally, which is most of the time. He disgusts me.

[ZZenith]

12. In the history of the world, has any man

failed upward more spectacularly? It’s truly uncanny how someone with so little value as a human being ended up where he is.

The mind boggles.

[malaise]

30. You know it's much worse than I expected

and I knew it was going to be really bad. He knows nothing about anything and thinks he's the most knowledgeable person on the planet. He is a vile cretin - crass, vulgar, disrespectful, uncouth, corrupt, racist, misogynistic, vindictive, petty, jealous, and more. I'm just getting started.

[ZZenith]

42. I am grateful for this little bit of knowledge -

History is generally unkind to such people. His star may have burned bright for awhile, but after the celebrity fades the truth of him will emerge, and he will forever be held up as an example of how NOT to be a human. I imagine his name will become some sort of a profanity, or turned into a verb denoting some manner of vile behavior.

We have to live with him in the present but future generations will spit on his memory, I am now certain of that. “Greatest Loser of All Time,” his headstone will read.

[malaise]

44. He deserves a unmarked grave

Or better yet burial at sea.

[HipChick]

18. What the heck is wrong with him?

I am so sick of him..

[malaise]

41. Everything

[ginnyinWI]

3. Mentally deranged. nt

[Freethinker65]

4. A+ from Jr., Hannity, and Tucker, and those $100,000/plate dinner attendees

[malaise]

37. Between unsung success and accolades before the disaster, I think

He's already surpassed 'heck of a job Brownie' Bush. He was history after that.

[mcar]

6. It's all about him

Even natural disasters bow to the greatness of the emperor king.

[malaise]

7. He has several major character flaws

[mcar]

8. And no positive attributes

[malaise]

10. Not fugging one

Stunning

[mcar]

11. A complete waste of a human

[tblue37]

35. Yep, definitely human waste. (That's what you meant, right?) nt

[mythology]

27. Several in the sense that War and Peace is several pages long?

[malaise]

31. Nicely played

[smirkymonkey]

15. Just what I was going to say.

Can't he EVER think about anyone else? These people are in mortal danger and all he cares about is his "performance" and image.

He is the antithesis of what a leader should be. He instills no confidence. What a hollow shell of a human being.

[struggle4progress]

9. "Holy shizz! What the fugg do they think they're doing?"

[bdamomma]

13. It's confirmed

tRump is fucking delusional. I almost wish Florence would get his ass. Fucking man almost 3,000 people got killed in Puerto Rico, do not count on the government on this one. They steal babies from mothers....need I say more.

[Caliman73]

20. You are probably more correct than you realize.

A delusion is a firmly held belief that is held in contrast to what is generally accepted as reality.

There is obvious nuance because there are more than likely, people who feed Trump the praise he demands and then he can go out and say he is getting praise. However, as Woodward's book shows, Trump holds on to ideas regularly that are wrong and will continue to hold onto them despite any evidence presented. I am not talking about believing in angels or God, or prophets as in religious beliefs which may or may not be provable. I am talking about "Muslims dancing on rooftops in Jersey" or "The WTO is against the United States" when it has ruled in the US's favor more than 85% of the time.

I would argue that he is clinically delusional.

[malaise]

32. And they take FEMA money to do it

[bdamomma]

36. yeah

they're really concerned about Americans and the consequences of a catastrophic hurricane.


malaise

[malaise]

38. Hi there

[Guilded Lilly]

14. Twilight Zone territory. Or Star Wars...The Delusion is Strong with this one.

[lame54]

17. He is going to play it up for all it's worth to try to change minds for the election

[malaise]

39. Poor fool

It won't work

[gratuitous]

19. Gonna hurt his shoulder patting himself on the back like that

Maybe he can hire Leaping Lanny Poffo to do it for him?

[bdamomma]

21. I'm just hoping

junk food kills him, he's really a junk food junkie. Let him clog up his arteries. I read somewhere what crap he eats. And saying how he eats his steaks well done which can cause prostate cancer AND MEMORY LOSS. He's what 72 yrs old that mirror he's looking too isn't showing a young man, unless he sees a different reflection in his mind. He's just dangerous.

[Solly Mack]

22. He's talking to himself in the mirror again.

[SammyWinstonJack]

45. Yup. Fool believes conversations in his head are real. Or thinks we should believe they are.

Makes shit up and presents it as truth.

[Vinca]

23. Don has a perpetual need to have his ego stroked. He doesn't give a damn about

potential hurricane victims. He wants a participation trophy only his has to be engraved "Best Person On the Entire Planet In the History of Time."

[malaise]

33. You nailed it

And when he fails he has already announced that it's the biggest and wettest hurricane in history.

[area51]

24. Maybe the people giving him accolades

are the same parents of the U.S. Korean war victims (who obviously are no longer alive).

[ProudLib72]

25. Did he specify what exactly he has done to prepare?

Besides giving away all the FEMA money to ICE?

He's tremendously big, tremendously wet, and tremendously stupid.

[Maeve]

28. Why, he told people to leave, didn't he?

And what more could anyone have done??? Oh, and stay away from islands--they're too hard to reach.

God, this has gotten depressing!

[ProudLib72]

29. How tremendous of him!

[moondust]

26. And Florence recovery!!!

Crystal ball says: He's giving himself an A+ for the super tremendous job he's done handling the greatest recovery of all time.

Any bets?

[malaise]

34. Of course

[SammyWinstonJack]

46. Safe bet. A+++++++.

[JHB]

40. "Participated at minimal level" is now "accolades" according to the leader of the Republican party

[Grammy23]

43. The best part is that he is the face of the GOP.

He is stuck to them like glue. E-6000. No matter how much they’d prefer to distance themselves from that pile of goo, he is theirs. So every time he utters the nonsense that seems to spew from his pie hole, it just tightens the bond. It almost makes it worth it to think how far they are going to fall by the time he gets done with them or vice versa. Gonna be a most amazing and spectacular fall. Biggest of all time, of course. Thank you, tRump, for letting us know that you always have the biggest of everything.
