I wonder if Trump's own Dark Side will bring him down.

[leftyladyfrommo]

He's a mess. His whole personality is sliding right down into the sewer.

His Truth Social messages just get sicker and sicker. Hatred and bile are all that are left of him.

1. It's a matter of time.

Luck always runs out.

2. He has more than a "Dark Side"

It is his whole being.

3. He is really mentally ill. I mean that seriously. And he's

becoming more and more dangerous.

4. He lives in his own twilight zone

Nothing is real, everything's borrowed, black is white, up is down, evil is good, etc. etc. etc.

5. There used to be White House staffers that were in charge of his tweets

Chump's tweets for the most part were written by other people while he was President. You could tell when everything was correctly spelled and punctuated, and they were mostly composed in complete sentences. Nowadays he writes his own stuff and there's nobody to check or edit the garbage. There's nobody to say, "Wait a minute, this might not be such a great idea."

6. It is his strength.

We will find out if there is enough good in the country to bring him down.

7. He's current figurehead of a cult. Cults never end well.

Ask this guy.


Cults are self-destructive. I thought about this, and I concluded that the attraction is that cults (and addictions, and co-dependences, and mafia membership and so on ) "sanction" evil and harmful things. For a while, anyway.
And you can count those hate-mongering "Devangelical Churches" among the cults.

The price?
All wiseguys fully expect to either go to jail or get whacked. They have absolutely no delusions that they are going to live long lives

8. Yes 👍

He has brought out the worst in people and spread so much hate. I do believe it will catch up to him sooner rather than never!

He reminds me so much of Jim Jones in a way!

9. My neighbor bought into the whole evangelical thing.

She couldn't read or write but she wasn't dumb. Just dyslexic.

She told me that she wants to go to heaven and she's willing to believe anything to get there.

The evangelicals and pentecostals I have worked with weren't terrible people. But they weren't great thinkers. There is something in those religions that teaches that a bible believing Baptist that believes ridiculous things just proves that they are true believers. It makes no sense.

10. I'd say that most spiritual writings are metaphorical

and people who take them literally are doing themselves a disservice.
Hits close to home for too many of us.
