@DavidCorn: “This is a man incapable of listening to others. His aides have said that for years. He cannot absorb information that challenges anything in his big brain. It’s hyper-narcissism. And the business class ought to worry about this & not just drool over tax cuts.”

Trump is a petulant toddler who will never mature. He will only dangerously regress.

The Republicans are trying desperately to get Trump across the finish line, then they will do their best to sideline him in favour of Vance.

"After Trump’s bizarre performance last night in Oaks, Pennsylvania, when he stopped taking questions and just swayed to his self-curated playlist for 39 minutes, his campaign this morning canceled a scheduled interview with CNBC’s Squawk Box"

@wdlindsy The the last thing we want is a chameleon who has shaped himself into the form of the Younger, Healthier, Second In Command Liar who see women in red.

@wdlindsy I initially read decompensating as decomposing.

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@Huntn00 Indeed. In some ways, he's more dangerous by far than Trump. The media have lifted him up and made him who he is, so he has entrée there. And billions of dollars in the form of Peter Thiel and other techbros lie behind him — and we well know, dollars talk to the corporate media.

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@Greengordon Yes, that seems clearly to be their strategy.

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@Laloofah @DavidCorn Absolutely right.

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@Tharpa Yes, this is what narcissists do, isn't it? Since it's all about them, they spin even their clear failings and stupidities as some brilliant "weaving."

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@MishaVanMollusq For sure.

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@Huntn00 Yes, you're right.

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@dave I think it's technical psychotherapeutic language reflecting Mary Trump's training and education in that field. I couldn't tell you exactly what it means to those trained specialists, either, but I have a pretty good idea it means something akin to "meltdown."

[huntn00@mastodon.world]

@wdlindsy This is why Lil’Donny has the strength he does as head of the Cult. And when he loses we’ll get a four-year reprieve, but the war will be far from over. Young deplorables like Vance will come out of the woodwork and threaten again, along with a SCOTUS that supports this movement.

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@Huntn00 Yes.

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@SDParris I can see where that would be easy to do — and they're really not so far apart.

@wdlindsy
Thanks. It's certainly plausible. I'm convinced he has some kind of neurological condition.

[lindacollins11@mastodon.social]

@wdlindsy This is a frightening reality

[mgd1616@mastodon.social]

@wdlindsy Sad to see that this is what the GOP has come to in their lust for power. Enjoy this parody of DJT

@wdlindsy

a vote for Donald Trump is a vote for the 25th amendment

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@nanowiz Well-noted and well-stated.

[wdlindsy@toad.social]

@MGD1616 Yes, indeed. Will watch with interest. I appreciate the link.
