Dr. John Gartner on a tale of two brains: "Biden's brain is aging. Trump's brain is dementing"
Donald Trump has demonstrated, in repeated and dangerous ways, that he appears to be profoundly unwell mentally and emotionally. Some of the countrys and worlds leading mental health professionals have concluded that based on his behavior, Trump is likely a sociopath if not a psychopath.
Whatever one may think about the specifics of his policies, President Joe Biden, on the other hand, is a responsible leader and an institutionalist who believes in America and the democratic experiment. By comparison, Donald Trump hates democracy, attempted a coup on Jan. 6, and is a megalomaniac who believes that he is some type of god or messiah. Whatever a fence sitter, undecided, or disgruntled Democrat or other member of Bidens 2020 electoral coalition who is angry at him over a specific policy may think and feel, there is no issue where Donald Trump will be a real improvement. Moreover, Trump and his MAGA movement will punish those people who they view as being members of the Democratic Party's base of support. Ultimately, a principled vote against President Biden (or deciding to abstain in protest) is a vote for Trump and American neofascism.

Word. Spending eternity with these sanctimonious jerkholes is not the selling point they think it is.

If i did believe in a literal antichrist, I'd definitely think TSF was the fulfillment of that prophecy.

All the stress must be speeding it up too. Hopefully his brain just becomes overloaded and breaks down. nt
