I’ve been saying the NYC Real Estate and TV Entertainment guy REALY isn’t in the same world as the most of the rest of us….
What’s worst is ?
Millions of American’s who think that the evolving America, that less white and younger is scaring the shit out of them….
This is so scary that these people have voted for a supposedly rich guy from New York City that grew up in Queens and lies like a rug to be their savior….
He is really out there….
But the outlandishness of the guy, as President, is a bright shiny object the media cannot get enough of….
Most of his hi-jinx’s are tired…
But he IS the President of the United States….
That’s the problem….
In the year and half that he has worked his new job he hired and fired 50 of his staff….
The office and its constrains have forced him to jettison the crazies…..
But he still stays in touch with them and he is still the guy that watches Fox News and more that ever will make his public position on something what he heard from the last person he spoke to…
Unlike ALL of the modern day President’s?
Donald Trump is about HIMSELF….
He makes no pretense that he is about America the whole….
He isn’t……
He is making money off the American Government by having it pay him for where he stay and what he uses….
And he has made it plain that he expects his staff to work to cover his ass at all costs…..Not do what would be legal or the best thing for country…..
Here’s Vox on the guy’s problem with reality….
In his own telling, Trump has instincts so superior that they defy conventional comprehension. So we should quail at the assessment recently tendered to conservative columnist Erick Erickson by an anonymous Republican congressman who, though he defends Trump on Fox News, blurted out his truth in the sanctuary of a grocery store:
“It’s like Forrest Gump won the presidency, but an evil, really [expletive] stupid Forrest Gump. He can’t help himself. He’s just a [expletive] idiot who thinks he’s winning when people are bitching about him. He really does see the world as ratings and attention.
“I say a lot of [expletive] on TV defending him. . . . But honestly, I wish the mother [expletive] would just go away. . . . He wakes up in the morning, [expletive] all over us, [expletive] all over his staff, then hits golf balls. [Expletive] him. Of course, I can’t say that in public or I’d get run out of town.”
In this all-too-expert, if profane, opinion, our president is not the intuitive “genius” he proclaims himself to be, but a vile and abusive version of a fictitious simpleton who kept wandering into American history by accident. Except that this real-world ignoramus wields unmatched power to transform history for the worst. That he is supplanting sober advisers — Gary Cohn, Rex Tillerson, and H.R. McMaster — with sycophants and enablers should terrify us all.
For a time, the now-departed ameliorated his worst instincts, protecting special counsel Robert Mueller and preserving the Iran nuclear deal. No more. Trump careens unconstrained from one self-created flashpoint to the next with no sense of consequence or objective grasp of external reality — compelling attention out of sheer fright at what he may do next.
The most appalling thing about his unpredictability is its infinity….
More…
Note….
I’ve lost count of how many pieces that are come out saying the same thing about Trump every week….
But it’s good to post them every once in while to remind poeple of how messed up this guy is, and the people who actually support the guy…

My Name Is Jack says
What is “reality” any more?
Apparently a goodly number of Americans live in this “alternate reality.”
The truth no longer matters to them.Trump tells them what they want to hear even when it’s demonstrably untrue.They “want” it to be true so that becomes their “reality”
I find this to be a horrible time in the history of the country.
