23. There are some things someone with that much power should never "joke" about.

Especially considering how unstable they are and, more especially, how unstable their mindless followers are.

But since Trump is unstable, he wouldn't grasp that, nor would his supporters.

And it seems no one within the GOP circle-jerk is willing to help them either. They count on that instability.

I find Trump to be a sad, tragic figure. Truly pathetic man - and I could feel a modicum of pity for him if he wasn't holding so much power over other people.

As it stands, feeling pity for Trump is just another weapon he'd use against people. He has to be removed for the good of the country.
