Has anyone else noticed that any time Trump accuses others of doing something illegal,

he is really doing it himself?

He keeps claiming voter fraud for the upcoming election. Well, the Republicans did just that with absentee ballots here in NC back in 2016.

He keeps coming up with "Obamagate" conspiracy theories, and calling Obama treasonous, and giving no examples or evidence as to why he is doing it. Yet, everything Trump has done has been a "gate" or treasonous.

Every time he calls Democrats or Obama did something, it turns out it was Trump and the Republican Party who actually have done those things, not the people he is accusing.

He reminds me of the person in a relationship who is always obsessively claiming the other person either is cheating or will. Usually, those are the ones who are actually doing the cheating, then projecting the accusation onto the other person.

Any time Trump accuses someone else of something, we can skip, "Go," and just go find out what kind of crap he just did, because he's really the one who is doing it and trying to point elsewhere to get the attention off of him.

Any time a Cluster B personality-disordered person makes an accusation, you can be 90% sure that he or she is doing (or has done) exactly what they are accusing you of doing. They assume that everyone else is as emotionally immature and morally depraved as they are.

It is an infallible tell. The cheap thug imagines he is the world, so anything he does to others is what others must be doing to him.

Some people are just figuring that out now 3 1/2 years into his so-called presidency. It's been his pattern all his life.

So you can bet that when he says that the 2020 election is going to be the crookedest one ever - its because he and the Repugs are going to pull all kinds of crap to make it so.

The Dems need to be vigilant of the Repugs dirty tricks and call them out and expose them as they suppress, cheat and steal votes.

We need to have poll watchers and an army of lawyers. We need to have the biggest turnout in Nov to counteract their criminality.

And think when he accused Obama of wiretapping him, he had others like putins intel , or Israel intel trying to listen in on Hillary and/or Obama. I think that's who's feeding him intel information.

Of course he said it was Hillary and the Democrats doing the rigging, but he can't help himself by revealing his crimes.

His projection always gives away the game.

When he says "Sleepy Joe" you know that's because that's how HE feels. Exhausted. Tired. Worn out. Used up.
