In a functioning democracy, Trump would have had to go to Congress and make a case for war.
In a dictatorship, Trump kills whomever he wants to.

The dysfunctional narcissistic psychopath is intrinsically dichotomous and hypocritical. Their narcissism is always at odds with their psychopathy. They seek adoration, idolization, and reverence (peace prize), but their behavior is only ever immoral and criminal (war starter).

The political, religious, cultural, and financial implications of what malignant narcissists do are secondary to their quest for omnipotent power over people. Their psychic survival depends on the dominant drive of protecting their aggrandized self at any cost to us or the world.

The Dark Triad: narcissism, psychopathy, sadism.

Narcissistic psychopaths are pathological liars.

Trump’s been doing it in the open for 10 years.

The question is what’s wrong with Republicans?

We should be worried about the “eight wars resolved” hyperbole given his rhetoric about:
Iran
Venezuela
Cuba
Colombia
Greenland
Mexico
Canada
Panama
Iraq
Syria
Nigeria
Somalia

I promise you that the government that murdered Alex Pretti and Renee Good does not give a flying fuck about the protests in Iran.

Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu are two lawless criminals who will kill civilians to distract from their own corruption.

After a decade of narcissistic projection, if Americans didn't know that Trump was going to do everything he accused Kamala of — from being incompetent to starting wars to destroying the country — then they’re ignorant, stupid, coercively controlled or some combination thereof.

Minnesota effectively fought back against ICE so now we have to pay for their narcissistic injury. They catastrophize a fraud case that's already been prosecuted. Trump, the king of fraud, fabricates a smear campaign with narcissistic projection, the truth about him.
Wash, rinse, repeat.

We will not be sanctioning Russia for dropping bombs on schools and hospitals. We will be sanctioning Minnesota for allowing its wine moms to blow whistles at ICE officers.

America’s Character and the Rule of Law with George Conway III YouTube video by UW Office of Public Lectures

This speech by George Conway on “the spirit of liberty” contends with this moment in the destiny of our precious democracy. This is a generational address delivered with the intellect, character and integrity we desperately need.
It begins around 30:00.

“Psychologically, [Trump's] deteriorating. He’s getting worse. He’s dangerous. He’s a nut job. He’s a criminal. He’s a malicious human being who has no conscience, no morals, no remorse, no empathy. And he controls 5,000 nuclear weapons.”

There’s little worse for caring, decent people than the violative betrayal of having someone or something you love defiled by a narcissistic psychopath and his cabal, and then the narcissistic colluding minions celebrating it. This societal debasement of character is excruciating.

Donald Trump will HATE this ad when he sees it during the Olympic hockey final.

Let’s win gold. And then win back our country. LFG USA 🏅🔥🇺🇲

As said by @narceducator.bsky.social :

Here are the results of one arrest requiring medical emergency services in St. Paul.

Oh yes, thinking a high Dow is compensatory for letting the predators involved in a child trafficking ring go with impunity

is like

being ok with a serial killer as long as he has the power to make you rich.

Oh, wait…

Trump needs to experience a Gordie Howe hat trick.

“When you’re a star, they let you do it.”

The Winter Olympics start today, and we will feel pride and honor for our country.

But when we see our criminal, delusional President, we feel none of those things.

I’ve faced off with him before, and now I’m ready to take him on in Congress.

The narcissistic psychopath is involved in subversive activities far worse than our conscience-filled minds can conjure up. Trump tells us what he’s done and what he will do by projection and by telegraphing. The released Epstein files were for appeasement because the unreleased will end him.

🎯

A tad worse than that…

His whole pathology is based on repressing this truth — he is incapable of love, kindness, compassion, and empathy. Any positive human traits are feigned.

I would have left along ago but our children were embedded here — two still in college and not financially independent (how can you be when med school is $81,000 per yr not including living expenses).

Never choose a country based on jobs and proximity to home!

A democratic society organized around the assumption that everyone has some degree of morality committed to truth, honor and integrity is no match for a cabal of conscienceless malignant narcissists without a single characteristic of humanity — pure evil masquerading as human.

I didn’t see anything like this on my trips to Communist east bloc countries in the late 70s and early 80s as a Canadian gymnast, but then again, all this authoritarianism had already happened there.
The citizens were noticeably fearful, reserved, compliant and joyless by then.

Trump and the exploitative personality disorders running this adm and our federal government cause much more damage and harm to our society than ever could the “danger of immigrants,” their fabricated fear mongering and justification for power and control.
Inescapable self-sabotaging pathology.
