Both Trumpy's insecurities (fear of failure) AND his apprehension at kneeling before Putin are in plain sight here.

Putin shows that he expects something from Trumpy. "Come on. I led you to this place, now perform for me!"

He's always talking about how everyone thinks he's so great. Just today he was claiming that the government workers (who aren't getting paid) were telling him how much they were standing by him. More bullshit.

The guy has done tremendous damage to this country and his legacy of conservative judges will last for generations. For all the benefits he was given in his upbringing, he never has had a normal outlook on life. In his position a decent person could have done a lot of very good things. He chose otherwise. History will not be kind to him and history does not do NDA's.

But he only realizes that very deep down. He can usually convince himself that all of the praise and adoration that he demands from those around him is true, but he that knows he is hated and not feared, and distrusted and not given the respect the office should command.

it is not his conscience or soul that is broken - only his ego. For that, he deserves no sympathy. And you are right - all the good fortune that life gave him was squandered away by the greedy desire for more. He has a hole that will never be filled because he keeps trying to fill it with all the wrong things. Really sad.

His arrogance was his unraveling. He never should have joined the race or become President - he could be screwing people over at Mar-a-Lago right now. Instead, of he'll be infamous as the worst President in US history.

He's a petulant, thin-skinned, narcissistic little man.

You're next.

Cousins had a pig that grew and grew and grew and loved to swim in their POOL (not pond)! Johnny and Lynn named him Farouk (why, I have no clue). He would heel, sit and stay on command - especially lucky when he got to his max weight! AND he only tore up what mom and dad said was okay. I.E. - I LIKE pigs.

I have never hated any of our politicians. Truly hated some political policies, stances, etc, but NOT the person. I do now.

You have no business, NO business being in politics. You fucked us all up man. Waste of 300 million peoples three years...900 million years combined wasted. Go away now Don.

Trump took on the job of POTUS for personal gain and glory.

Unfortunately, that is not the purpose of that position.

Time for Trump to face reality, and stop trying to twist the POTUS job into a dictatorship.
