He does it because he loves it.

It gets him off.

Every day, Every minute. Every hour. For months on end.

He isn't fulfilled unless he can hear about himself on TV continuously.

That is why he doesn't care what he does or says, as long as it gets him in the news.

To him, no one else exists except him.

This is his sickness. It's something worse than narcissism. Narcissists at least can fake empathy for others. He can't even fake it.

He is among the worst people in power who have ever lived. His "policies" will kill and harm many over time.

The fact that he got elected has taught me that nothing is impossible, no matter how unlikely.

3. The propaganda machine built by GOP billionaires got him elected

Since the 70s, GOP billionaires have been building a propaganda machine designed to get votes for tax cuts for billionaires.
Fox, NY Post, Limbaugh, Hewitt, Levin, Drudge, Sinclair, Heritage, SPN, Cato/Koch, Bradley, Wash Examiner, Wash Times, WSJ, Boston Herald, Breitbart, IJR, Daily Caller, Newsmax, etc etc.

The goal of all those outlets, over the past 40 years: incite fear against minorities and immigrants and gays and liberals, to get the working class to hate anyone else besides the billionaire CEO and corporations that are screwing them.

But until two years ago, all those propaganda outlets pretended they weren't racist or hateful, because they needed to appeal to independents. But Trump just threw all that away and directly appealed to racists and xenophobes. And the GOP base loved it.

That's the reason he got elected. It's the fault of GOP billionaires that built a propaganda machine. It's not by chance, and it's not a big surprise.

But the good news is that if we stop the propaganda we can take our country back.
