Trump is an emotional toddler

If you're lucky, you've never had to deal with an adult that is an emotional toddler. You have never had to deal with the insecurities, the irrationality, the hyper-drama, and the temper tantrums. The same behaviors often seen in narcissistic personalities that often mimic kids going through the "terrible twos". Emotional immaturity in an adult is not the type of personality trait that you want to see in your President.

Toddler Rules...

If I like it, it's mine
If it's in my hand, it's mine
If I can take it away from you, it's mine
If it's mine, it must never appear to be yours in any way
If I'm building something, all the pieces are mine
If it looks like mine, it's mine
If I saw it first, it's mine
If you're playing with something and you put it down, it's mine

If it's broken, it's yours...

JDV is an empty vessel, bereft of any principal other than the will to power, and thus perfect fodder for fascism.
