besides himself. He is also a sadist so he probably got off on the violence. Actually I think he is a psychopath more than a sociopath.

these terrorists were willing to do for HIM. That riot made his rallies seem like Puppy Love. The violence, murder and destruction done for HIM - now that's deep, true love. That POS narcissist was never happier than when he was watching that devastation.

Like all things Trump, his attempted coup was a total failure ...for him. And likewise, everyone else got hurt. Some killed. And even magat lives ruined. What a fucking disaster this guy is.

evil doesn't know what remorse is. I sure don't miss looking at his ugly face since he's gone. It always made me sick.

To the friends and family of Ashli Babbit.

That woman was encouraged by his words that day, to help storm the Capital and die from a gunshot, while trying to climb through a window.

Ex president Trump has left Washington and is enjoying the life of a wealthy man at Mar-a-lago. Trump doesn’t give thought or a shit about Ashli Babbit!!

What's interesting to me is that without him asserting this, very few others are doing so. After this trial is done, I don't see what leverage Republicans have over Trump.
