(24,440 posts)He has no self or any other kind of discipline. The last time he had an ounce of discippline wsa when he was a teenager and got sent away to military school.
As President, he didn't have the discipline to read national security reports, he made them make them 1 page with pictures and a few key words. This is a man who was born rich, never had to apply himself, had his daddy buy his way into college, and then inherited what would be $12 Billion in real estate from his father when he died. He doesn't read at all. And so his entire adult life has been spent partying and then surrounding hyimself with yes men to help him scam. About the only discipline he's shown as an adult is the discipline to become a master at cheating and stealing from his business partners.
And so he ran for office and became addicted to the adoring fans. He cheated his way into office aeven though he didn't really want the job. But once he was president, he was addicted to the power. Since then he's just crewated this coccoon around himself. All e hears all day long is how great he is. He made it a requirement for people to stand and applaud whenever he enters a room.
For him to be sitting there hearing the worst of his deeds and how most of the world views him is worse than water boarding him. For him to not have any authority in that room is killing him, every minute seems like an hour, every hour an eternity. Trying to fall asleep is an attempt to escape. Now I don't know if he will get convicted, but I do know that sitting in the court day after day for weeks is a little bit of justice for the country as I know he's suffering from it immensly.
