Trump is having a psychotic episode.

[madaboutharry]

Suddenly pulling the plug on a stimulus bill is, in my opinion, evidence of a manic episode.

The man is mentally unstable and is exhibiting reckless behavior.

He needs to be removed from the levers of power. He is dangerous.

[Rice4VP]

1. I agree

Good riddance

[C_U_L8R]

2. Must have gulped down the entire steroid supply.

Thinks he can be super-duper-trump. What a boob.

[wnylib]

31. But if he does not quarantine, and

walks the halls and rooms of the WH, where the air is contaminated, he might be taking in more virus, increasing his viral load and defeating the virus reducing meds he has been taking.

I suspect that his confidence about his own recovery and invincibility right now is based on a belief that he can just get more of the experimental miracle drug if he needs it.

[SergeStorms]

32. He'll get better a lot sooner that way.

Then he can go out on the campaign trail and drop dead.

[Binkie The Clown]

3. With the White House cleared out he has nobody there to yell at,

so he's yelling at the American people.

[JaneQPublic]

4. It's the 'roids.

Or the 'rona.

Probably the 'rona and the 'roids.

[moonscape]

10. And his DNA. n/t

[SergeStorms]

33. And his silver spoon life.

Born halfway between third base and home plate, and thinks he hit a home run. If I'd inherited $400 million I imagine I might be a little different now too, but still nothing like that asshole!

[unblock]

5. How is this different from any of the other psychotic crap we've come to expect from him?

His whole presidency has been one long psychotic episode.

[ananda]

23. Exactly.

I don't know how anyone can tell the difference between
before and after Covid.

[Skittles]

45. I agree

the the man is a piece of shit, he doesn't care

[Ferrets are Cool]

48. This x 1000

[GusBob]

6. As bad as that sounds, I think its much worse

he stated he would sign one *if he wins*

the implication being, when he loses he is going to burn down the country

[regnaD kciN]

16. I thought it was "when I win"...

[GusBob]

21. correct

" after I win" are the words

[MoonRiver]

7. I completely agree, but who is going to remove him?

[AllyCat]

69. I don't think he has made too many friends in the USSS

January 20, 2021 they have completed their work with this a$$hole and walk him out.

[Eliot Rosewater]

8. ANd the GOP will do NOTHING...TERRORISTS

[Bernardo de La Paz]

13. They are his hostages. He is burning his hostages. . . . . nt

[movingviolation]

42. We're all his hostages.

It's been that way for a while now, something that some are just now realizing.

[JHB]

50. They're not hostages. They CAN do something. They are CHOOSING not to.

That's the difference between hostages and henchmen.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

9. He may think he is using hard-knuckles negotiating tactics, but won't work & will cost him dearly.nt

[Nevilledog]

19. +10000

[wnylib]

34. We can only hope. Going to be d@#&ed disappointing

if he pulls through this medical crisis that he refuses to acknowledge.

[JHB]

52. That's possible. A 'roid-induced fantasy that the Dems will come crawling to him...

...which has as much basis in fact as those paintings of him all buff and muscular and brandishing a gatling gun while surfing on a monster truck.

[ihas2stinkyfeet]

11. that was to cover for manuchin.

pelosi told him she didnt want him on the hill.
rather than be a grown up, he went crying to daddy.

[GusBob]

15. But,but but

rather than blame Pelosi, he actually took credit for it and held the bill hostage because of his election

very stupid move

[Mr.Bill]

44. Give him a few hours.

He'll blame Pelosi.

[Captain Zero]

56. Please explain 'cover for Manuchin'

??

[ihas2stinkyfeet]

59. he couldnt get the job done

cuz of captain covid. so he made it sound like it was his idea to pull the plug.

[duforsure]

12. I agree 100%

And it's worsen from the drugs he's on now. He isn't well enough to be making any decisions now. He's a national security risk to the country. Republicans will have consequences for allowing this to continue.

[BComplex]

14. But it's up to the republicans to pull the plug, and none of them know the difference between a

psychotic episode and Tuesday as usual. They're all psychotic. That's why they're republicans.

[Grins]

17. A by-product of dexamethasone?

That’s one of the drug’s downsides.

[LisaL]

18. No, it's similar to extortion.

NT

[BeyondGeography]

20. He has seen the numbers and declared war on the unappreciative United States

[we can do it]

22. About a four year long one.

[Mariana]

24. Three days ago:

OUR GREAT USA WANTS & NEEDS STIMULUS. WORK TOGETHER AND GET IT DONE. Thank you!

[WyattKansas]

25. Well hopefully it forces Republican Senators to immediately drop all plans to...

Get enough support within themselves to override any veto and beginning begging for their own jobs. Now is the time for the whole country to launch a full scale pressure cooker outrage at the Republican Party for propping up their madman at the expense of the entire country.

[wnylib]

35. Yes!

[Dan]

26. My thinking is that if he loses the election,

Then he will do everything that he can to destroy the nation.

[patphil]

40. I agree, and I think he is beginning to realize that, despite his best efforts, he will lose.

So, no need to cater favor with anyone except his "Proud Boys".

He may go over the edge soon. I hope he gets stopped before he does anything too terrible.

[Mr.Bill]

47. And the republicans will let him do it.

If they don' he might tweet mean things about them.

[smb]

63. Yep

[Cozmo]

27. 25th Amendment!

[bdamomma]

28. he needs

to be just taken away to mental health facility. For his protection and ours.

[japple]

29. And what's going to happen when the doctors start tapering him down off the meds?

I'll bet he wants to keep taking it and tries to override them. We'll know for sure if we see him with a moon face.

[stage left]

55. His face looked swollen last night

So he might well on his way.

[smb]

64. Or If We See Him Keel Over With A Heart Attack

There's a reason doctors don't give those drugs long-term.

[usedtobedemgurl]

30. I Want To Pass A Stimulus Bill...

But I need a favor, though.

[LiberalArkie]

36. His cabinet must be more insane than Trump is to not do anything.

[HipChick]

37. This assumes its different from his normal personality..

It's not...

[justgamma]

38. Elect me and I will give you all $1200.00.

That is what he's saying.

[Mr.Bill]

49. Elect Biden and take the Senate

and we'll get the bill the house passed in may, and then some.

[George II]

39. Suffering from 'roid rage.

[Thrax]

41. Makes one really wonder

how the old guard Republicans are allowing this to continue.

[JHB]

54. Because they don't control things anymore, and if they try, everyone will know it.

They're probably mistaken on that point and could rally a significant faction if they simply tried, but it would draw the undying enmity of the Ahabs and put them on their White Whale list, consigning the Republicans to minority status for a generation.

By doing nothing, they'll be able to blame Democrats, like they have for the last generation.

[Wednesdays]

65. There is a significant rebellion among old guard Republicans

They call themselves "The Lincoln Project."

[JHB]

67. None of those people hold office and have real power.

[blue-wave]

43. Not so sure he's psychotic

The guy, from day one, has been undermining our country. He is hurting the whole country, every state, every municipality and especially the lives of every American. I believe he knows exactly what he’s doing. Such treacherous evil makes me sick.

A tRump tower in Moscow now appears to be imminent.

[bucolic_frolic]

46. I bet those steroids haven't missed a muscle

Throw in some barbells and a bench. He needs to work these off.

[BigOleDummy]

51. Someday

“Someday, a real rain will come and wash all this scum off the streets" . Travis Bickel had it mostly right. "Someday a real rain will come and wash all this scum from our Nation" . there..... I fixed it.

[njhoneybadger]

53. I share your opinion

But who will remove him

[iluvtennis]

57. 'catbyte' posted an article that indicates the psychosis can be caused by the dexamethasone

steroids.

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100214223276#post18

[NoRoadUntravelled]

58. He won't be feeling so well once the roids wear off.

nt

[womanofthehills]

60. Some of the side effects can be aggression and anger

What if he was on some of these drugs during the debate? He’s such as asshole he could not have taken the drug test because he already had some symptoms. Just took some feel good steroids.

[TexasBushwhacker]

61. Considering how big he is on a healthy stock market

He pretty much popped his own balloon.

[Blue Owl]

62. The Marmalade Meltdown

n/t

[wnylib]

66. Trump's egotism is blinding him

to how his party is using him. They are propping him up just to get through the election, as a rallying symbol for their court challenges and attempts to steal the election. If they can pull that off, they don't give a damn what happens to Trump afterward. If they pull off an election theft, they will have Pence and the power of the WH will still be theirs

[L.Pharmstrong]

68. I think he got played by McConnell.

McConnell knows that Trump is a lost cause. He also knows that there are vulnerable Republican Senators in the midst of campaigns who couldn’t vote against any stimulus package if they wish to remain in office. My bet is the McConnell got to Trump and convinced the moron to withdraw support so Trump, and not the Senate Republicans, would take the heat. Trump’s change in course came when someone told him that he got played by McConnell. Too little too late.

[KY_EnviroGuy]

70. One could coin a phrase and say it's his normal behavior on steroids.

Insiders have said he operates in a primal knee-jerk fashion, so he's gone from firing a pistol to a machine gun.
