Has he ever been to the Tomb of the Unknown? The stars on the wall are sacred. Once again, he needs to be impeached.

He will not care if someone dies protecting him in some way.

I was so disgusted -- It obviously meant a lot to the veteran and Trump -- not refusing it, as a five deferment.draft dodger should have -- showed very
little appreciation.

whether he's mentally ill or just a really awful person...I guess it's not an either/or situation. There is DEFINITELY something wrong with him, and I don't think it's just a shallow, self-centered jerk. Other people, Keith Olbermann, for one, have expressed this opinion as well, and it scares me...A crazy person as the most powerful person in the world?

Personality disorder, narcissism, and most definitely a sociopath.

make one feel exactly safe, doesn't they?
My husband is getting ready to retire and we are making plans to get out of the country for at least a year, in which time we're hoping he'll have either resigned, o been removed from office. My nerves can NOT take four years of him.

My boyfriend has duel citizenship in Germany and it could be possible we will move to Frankfurt. We do want to live in this country but if we have to we will go.

Germany would probably be one of the better places in Europe to go....They've weathered the 'crash" better than most of the surrounding countries, so it's great if your boyfriend's dual citizenship status could help you both get in, if necessary. I don't want to leave the country either..I've traveled a lot and I like Canada and Europe, but really...No place truly feels like 'home' to me but America...I just don't trust my personal safety to the nitwit in office...As I told someone else on the thread, I haven't been so scared of a national/politicl situation since living through the Cuban Millile Crisis at 11 years old...I remember thinking nuclear war was at hand and worrying that I'd never live past the sixth grade. America has such power in the world, I KNOW that physically leaving the country isn't a complete answer, but I'll be damned if I can stand the though of surviving 40 years of the Cold War to have to worry about this crazy nitwit getting us all killed.

He's insufferable and SO blatantly unsuited for office it scares me...I haven't been this scared since the the Cuban Missile Crisis which occurred when I was in the 6th grade.
