I've heard him talk about that, and it's absolutely true. Trump has lost his filter, which is why he's so much more blatantly rude (like calling reporters names to their faces when they ask a question he doesn't like). He used to be able to fake being a half decent human being at least some of the time, but that is gone now, especially when anyone challenges him in any way.

The only way to avoid diect atracks, either f2f or on Twitter, is to constantly butter him up and kow tow to him. That still seens to be working for now, but I can't hekp wondering if it will lasppt. As his inhibitions continue to erode, will he become such a hateful, vituperative ball of abuse that no one can stand to be around him any longer? Will a time come when catering to him constantly will no longer be enough to stave off his wrath and he starts lashing out viciously even at people who are still crawling on their bellies for him? Will any of them ever get sick of it and turn on him? We can only hope.
