"You're So Vain ...

[NanceGreggs]

... You Probably Think This War Is About You."

In an interview with FOX's Laura Ingraham last night, Trump said of the invasion of Ukraine:

"I'm angry about it, and I'm saddened by it, and it all happened because of a rigged election."

Put aside every other narcissistic statement TFG has ever made - and there are lots to choose from - and let THAT ONE sink in.

The man is delusional enough to believe that the so-called 'rigged election' that kicked his lard-ass out of the White House is the impetus behind anything and everything that happens in the world, especially if it is something disastrous.

That thought process - if you can call it 'thought' - is beyond egotism, beyond self-serving, beyond the realm of being unhinged. It is a clear sign of insanity.

When you actually believe (and I'm sure Trump does believe it) that every event that occurs anywhere on the planet is a direct result of your own personal grievances, you have completely lost touch with reality.

No doubt this is just the tip of the looney-tune iceberg. I fully expect that in the months to come, volcanic eruptions, floods, landslides, droughts, famine, disease, pestilence and death will all be declared the direct result of a 'rigged election' that only happened in what remains of the mind of a raving lunatic.

1. He sees this as a continuation of the January 6 in surrection. He is so warped and so dumb

[madaboutharry]

2. His poisonous narcissism has caused him to sink into the depths of insanity.

Having been rejected by the American people was more than his fragile ego could bear. He had to create an alternative reality in order to survive and still function.

3. Don't know if it was the same segment,

but I read where Trump told Ingraham about the secret US amphibious invasion of Ukraine and Ingraham had to cut him off and tell him it was a Russian invasion. The guy is in late stage dementia I'm afraid, maybe that's another reason he is losing some support?

[NanceGreggs]

8. Yes, that happened later ...

... in the same segment.

To think that THIS is the man that is worshipped as a politically-savvy genius by the MAGAts is beyond comprehension.

When Ingraham had to explain to him that it wasn't the US launching the amphibious attack, I kept hearing Emily Litella saying, "Oh, well, that's different. Nevermind."

[lagomorph777]

26. Probably Putin told him to say that.

[malaise]

4. You nailed it as usual

[samplegirl]

6. I saw his Lardass a minute longer

than I wanted to see him. He appeared on t.v.
long enough to blurt out the words that this would of never happened on his watch.

Just pandemics fat man that you refused to let Americans know about until he had to!

[PatSeg]

7. He truly is insane!

And he is stuck in repeat mode. He's used that "rigged election" bit so often, that is all that comes out of his mouth.

15. Earlier it was the border wall...

Nothing has changed with One Note Mussolini. He’s been a crazy useful idiot since the ‘80s.

I’m sure they get a daily earful down at Merde Loco about Twitter, also.

[PatSeg]

19. "One Note Mussolini"

That sums him up very well. He doesn't have the imagination or intelligence to entertain more than one idea at any given time. In a sense, he has brainwashed himself.

9. I am encouraged because TDFG's dementia is taking hold

When you reach the stage where you can't articulate the facts, and can't state logically, but rely upon emotional glue to connect the dots between what you hope and want to what you believe, you have entered the final 2-3 years of dementia, in my view and experience.

[ShazzieB]

12. I really hope you're right, and the dementia is taking hold bigly.

When dementia gets to a certain point, it's impossible to hide. I hope it's at that point and will soobecome so obvious that his enablers are forced to recognize that he's in no shape to run for reelection.

10. In the large size....

[NoMoreRepugs]

11. The laws of physics need to be reviewed now that we know the

SlobFather is the center of the known Universe.

[hadEnuf]

13. He's channeling Hitler by projecting that "he alone can fix it".

Nothing can be right unless he is in charge! This is in the same vein of saying that if he did not win the 2020 election it's all rigged. Now anything that goes wrong is because he is not in charge.

Trump may be insane but he knows exactly what he is doing.

[colorado_ufo]

14. Nah.

He is just grabbing onto this to reinforce his propaganda. He knows exactly what he is doing. This is the game he always plays. He is a nut job, but he actually is not delusional. He is shrewd and manipulative and evil.

[NanceGreggs]

16. "He knows exactly what he's doing ..."

I'm really tired of hearing that - when it is so obvious that he doesn't.

It's like watching a man trip over his own feet, fall down two flights of stairs, break both arms and both legs - and then hearing people say "he meant to do that".

[colorado_ufo]

27. That's quite possibly correct!

I am certain that it's true should he fall out a window.

[ShazzieB]

17. "He's a legend in his own mind..."

When you actually believe (and I'm sure Trump does believe it) that every event that occurs anywhere on the planet is a direct result of your own personal grievances, you have completely lost touch with reality.

Oh, he believes it, all right. A hallmark of narcissism is believing one is the center of the universe, and he's a narcissist of the most severe kind.

24. A good artist needs to put Chump's face on that devil

I don't really know how to photoshop, but I've seen some nice work by others posted here on DU.

[I_UndergroundPanther]

28. Thats why I hate them.

Narcissists are a huge danger to humanity.

[Joinfortmill]

18. Yup, and millions of Americans are willing ...

To follow him down the rabbit hole.

[niyad]

20. Spot on, as always.

[dlk]

21. For a malignant narcissist everything is always all about them

He’s a textbook case.

[dalton99a]

22. Sick fuck

23. That rigged election of which he speaks

Does he mean 2016?

[lagomorph777]

25. It did happen because of a rigged election: 2016.

Putin installed Trump to lay the groundwork for his Ukraine invasion.
