House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said President Trump doesn't understand just how much weight his words carry amid growing concern over heightened tension between the U.S. and several countries, including North Korea.

"I'm not sure the President has understood that a president's words weigh a ton and you can't say things casually," Pelosi told David Axelrod on the podcast "The Axe Files."

She said his hard-hitting rhetoric and fiery remarks go much further than "raising eyebrows" as they make U.S. allies nervous about the possibility of a military conflict.

4. Sorry Ms.Pelosi,

Donald Trump knows exactly how his use of certain words and Phrases,are received and used by the Media and in that,that is all he cares about. Trump has zero empathy for know one but Donnie and then he plays the victim card.

Trump is incapable of human feelings.

5. Trump simply does not care.

Trump lives in the moment. He lies every time he opens his mouth. He means what he says until he says something different. Those who excuse his ignorance are empowering him and his chaos. Given the opportunity there are not any females he would be willing to assault.

6. Trumpy doesn't understand more than his words. He's got Alzheimer's.

Trumpy can't deal with complex ideas or issues. He commonly views issues in terms of black and white. He's got an absolutist's perspective on moral, economic, and political issues. He IS NOT ABLE to think any other way, because his brain is damaged. His belligerence and temper outbursts are also emblematic of Alzheimer's. As contrasted with other forms of dementia, folks in the earlier stages of Alzheimers retain a remarkable ability to SOUND capable. They retain a manageable vocabulary and can be quick to respond to stimuli. How they respond, however, shows their disease. And Trumpy shows his disease every day.

And yes, he doesn't CARE about people. His symptoms of sociopathy is now being eclipsed by Alzheimer's. Both conditions are not conducive to empathic experiences.

7. I think Pelosi hit the nail on the head. For all his bluster, Trump is actually a little

insecure individual who doesn't really believe anybody can take him seriously unless he takes a sledge hammer to their lives.
