Hundreds of psychiatrists diagnosed Trump as having Malignant NPD. If the Administration got sick of him, who enacts the 25th? When? How?

People who have had parents go thru dementia know that dementia involves a total lack of care of oneself & inability to put together cognitive thoughts.

That is when it has fully taken over. There are little signs here and there that these psychiatrists point to in his speech.

What I think is going on is on the bipolar spectrum & Trump oscillates between the petulant child & a very high dopamine level. This is mania. He gets by on little sleep, works tirelessly, runs very quick & unorganized speech, & is very impulsive. He never preps for an audience-no emotional intel.

I have not heard this suggested before. The experts seem to be saying petulance and aggression are vastly more consistent with NPD.

Now what he does do well is play 4D chess to constantly keep the enemies guessing.

I don't know that he has a long term strategy in any of this. It's whatever brain-blurt he has on a given day, and then backs down and says something completely the opposite the next day..

EG: One minute the Epstein files are boring, and asks why people would be bothered with them?

The next minute they're a conspiracy by the Democrats - which would actually be one of the most comprehensive and successful conspiracies of all time, and involve QANON, and who knows what else? That story would NOT be boring once it came out!

He would not be able to venture into some many policy areas & juggle them if he had no brain cells. I'd have to agree with O'Reilly. What Trump wants is to be feared, not so much liked.

Trump LOVES to be adored - and seems to consider America's relationship with another nation-state through the lens of whether the leader has said anything nice about him! I remember after Autralia's last election he said something like "I think we're going to have a great relationship with Australia. I know Anthony Albanese has said very nice things about me."

That is some weapons-grade level narcissism right there!

But you are also absolutely correct that being feared and even HATED are better than being mocked or ignored. Being feared and hated both prop up his fragile ego - confirming he's the most important person in the room.
But to be ignored?
To be mocked?

That's worth opening the "Football" and considering attack options!
