question everything

As I am hearing the pundits talking about Trump

they are using reasonable descriptions and analogies.

The real issue is that he is not normal. (Not sure about the definition of a psychopath). He does not understand the difference between a lie and a truth. He does not understand what it means to formulate a plan and stick with it. All the analyses do not relate to him. Cannot describe him.

So we can count all his lies, we can just shake our heads watching all the clips where he says one thing and then the other. Or all the clips that he is the one who knows - on any subject. If it were not serious it would be funny. We saw things like that from third world countries, or bad movies but from ours?

Of course he does not understand what reading from a plan means. All he does is saying the first think that comes to that empty space between his ears. Oh, he is capable or repeating what he hears on Fox where they talk at a sixth grade level.

This is why, I think, even the turtle prefer not to vote at all. Even if Trump will say yes, he will immediately change his mind.

Still, how long can the Republicans go along with it? They realize that the damage that he causes, they have to. They got their judges, their "tax reform" with the increasing deficit, how long?

One has to wonder at what point even Putin will realize that he cannot get much from him. That he is a Russian ass....et

you are right. That is what most republicans want too. Single party government. No opposition. Government by decree. No voting.

So that he can travel, eat, take medicine knowing that they are safe? Why, then, does he use the secret service for himself and for his spawns?

He, and his deplorables want to destroy the government not realizing what is at stake.

This is the point of my post - we cannot assign any reasons for his actions and for what comes out of his mouth. He is not normal.

The vote to open government exists.

And therefore, the whole scenario of a stalemate is false.

It's all a charade.

The onus is on McConnell to bring the vote to the floor.

The press is being suckered.

It's a safety issue. National Security. He can't be around processed Intel that are top secret eyes only. Neither can his family. He hates 2/3rds of us as well. They can talk about it all they want, but, hes a russian operative and he has NO business gaining from a cheated election.
When do they start talking about how the country is going to make it right w Hillary Clinton? Suns a bitches.
