Last night I was confident that it's finally over for him, theres no way he could survive this

[Iwasthere]

Today, after watching the lies and gaslighting tactics I have far less confidence I am baffled, IT WAS NOT A SARCASTIC QUESTION TO THE REPORTERS! IT. WAS. NOT!

[underpants]

1. No one is believing him

Even his staff knows he’s toast.

[lagomorph777]

2. Heard from a friend in the UK today - the whole world is laughing at him

[redstatebluegirl]

9. He is truly the teflon don. I will believe he has jumped the shark when he is gone.

[Eugene]

16. Too many people still insist he's doing a good job, even if they don't believe

anything he says. The latest AP poll says 80% of Repugs support him while most don't trust him as a source of facts. Cognitive dissonance? Stockholm Syndrome?

[underpants]

17. Do you know how long it takes people to admit they got duped?

If they ever do admit it. Hell I guarantee you Jim Bakker is duping a lot of the same people he scammed what 30 years ago.

The Trumphumpers are fed a daily diet of victimization and victory. Both. At the same time.

[Newest Reality]

3. Collective madness?

Perhaps the country has pretty much gone insane? Too much stress and distraction? To much pillaging and inequality?

[JackSabbath]

4. Everyone knows

The whole world is laughing at him today

[Turbineguy]

5. I think there's method behind his Doctor Insane act.

The best way for him to stay out of jail is to get pulled out under the 25th Amendment.

[Miguelito Loveless]

6. If I had a nickel

for every time people on this board and elsewhere told me "x event" was the end of Trump, I could afford buy one of his kids.

[lame54]

7. McConnell's got his back

[smirkymonkey]

23. Which is why we need to take down McConnell.

And win back the Senate. And get rid of Barr. That is the only thing that will save us if he does manage to pull off a win in November.

I am really feeling sick to my stomach right now. I just cannot believe what is happening in this country. It's beyond depressing. Evil is winning everywhere you turn.

[Dawgman49]

8. Classic sociopath

[Goodheart]

10. What he really means to say is that he was being "facetious", not "sarcastic"

He's a fucking ignoramus.

[maxsolomon]

12. He was being neither.

Today, he's just Gaslighting. There is no way to hold his feet to the fire over this; he'll just lie more. Eventually he'll exhaust the press, or the RW press will rescue him.

We'll move on to the next outrage shortly.

[PSPS]

11. The press props him up because his feak show still attracts viewers for some reason.

[Yonnie3]

13. He is the GOP's useful fool

I was going to say tool, but he's not sharp enough.

They manipulate him to get what they want and will hopefully get burned bad in the end.

I'm not even sure he is sentient enough to be considered evil. The evil men, to name just a few, are McConnell, Miller, Barr, Pompeo, and Hannity who use him towards their ends.

[Buns_of_Fire]

15. It wasn't sarcasm. And even if it WAS, that's just as bad.

So he's either dumb as a box of rocks; or
He an unfeeling, callous sack of excrement cracking "jokes" while people are dying.

Pick one, Dotard. Either one fits you like a surgical glove (size XX-Small).

[meadowlander]

18. Top of the list of things to fix...

the President should not be in charge of appointing the cabinet that determines whether or not he is fit for office and can be removed under the 25th Amendment.

It needs to be an independent panel of medical and psychological experts, as many as you like to control for political bias, but this is not a decision that should be made by the lick-spittles who owe their job to him.

[llmart]

24. +1

There are some serious flaws in our Constitution that no longer work in the 21st century including the electoral college nonsense. Our forefathers could never have envisioned that an entire party would look the other way and have no moral compass.

[Whiskeytide]

19. Kenan says ...

[Voltaire2]

20. NYT: 'some experts disagree'.

It started right there. And now they will report his bullshit explanation using the standard both-sides 'objectivity'.

[Chainfire]

21. Trump wears his emotions like a hairpiece

He was as serious as a heart attack yesterday, and everybody knows it. He wants to be a hero so bad he is grasping at straws; try this, try this, try this. He has no respect for science, not respect for scientist, he knows more about the military that the generals, he know more about medicine than doctors...He is a badly flawed man who has no business in his current job.

Trump doesn't realize that he is a fool and a laughing stock. The ass-kissers he surrounds himself with, and who run interference for him, do know, and they are co-conspirators in a criminal enterprise and are guiltier than Trump is. Trump needs to be in a padded cell cutting out paper dolls. The people that handle him should be in prisons. And Mitch, needs to be on a scaffold.

[StarryNite]

22. His cult followers believe him.

They believe him because they are stupid and they are brainwashed.

[USALiberal]

25. Some advice.....only the election can remove him. Nt

[stillcool]

26. It will be over for Trump...

when the GOP says it's over. Nothing he has said or done, has bothered them one bit. Risk/Reward is working in their favor.
