The mind of Donald Trump is a shambolic, disordered mess, where the only running thread of unity is to lash out at perceived enemies first and foremost, the Democrats and their alleged compatriots, the fake news media. Today, he did another presser on the lawn, and he was more peeved than usual, which makes sense since he was booed last week at the World Series and then again Saturday night at the UFC championship in Madison Square Garden. Trump is becoming progressively more unglued as the days go by and his commentary Sunday only serves to underscore how much.
Today he went off on Alexander Vindman, whom he calls a Never Trumper and accused the media of withholding the name of the Ukraine whistle blower whom Trump depicts as a liar.
It goes without saying that Trump has no concept of whistle blower protections, why they are necessary, or what a whistle blower risks by coming forward. He just wants to get a name so he can denounce the person as a loser and have Rocco break his legs. So far, vintage Trump. And its equally vintage that he is blameless, its this unnamed person telling lies that is the problem, and the media hiding him. Pure conspiracy theory, although you would never be able to explain that to Trump. His thought processes are too simplistic to permit him the discernment of why a whistle blower would come forward in the first place, to protect something larger than his own interests, and how the mechanism of a whistle blower going to Congress might be an integral part of democracy. If its not black and white, centered on him, Trump cant grok it. Then he goes on to Adam Schiff and his purported false report. Take four minutes and listen to this, because this is one for the history books. The witness intimidation, of which Trump is oblivious, is where he declares that Alexander Vindman is a Never Trumper and that evidence of that will come out real soon.

(497 posts)2. He is also paying out millions to Republican senators who are up for re-election in 2020
Seeing the senators are the jury when the impeachment reaches the senate, wouldn't that be jury tampering?
Lock him up.
(6,925 posts)3. He fantasizes jailing all the 'Never Trumpers'
Because he's just a man baby who thinks he's the king of the country everybody must bow to his every whim.
The Constitution? He never read it beyond the first line of the 2nd amendment.
