This thread offers 50 examples of unhinged behavior unfit for the presidency.
1. Trump blamed Rob Reiner for his own murder, citing โ€œthe anger he caused othersโ€ by criticizing Trump.
2. He told a rally that dead golfer Arnold Palmer had a large penis.

The vast majority of Republican politicians would rather be officeholders in a dictatorship than citizens in a democracy. They have chosen to be traitors.

The Kristi Noem blanket incident is a bizarre example of how a regime of narcissists is swinging a wrecking ball at Americans' lives in service to their own egos. (There's a gift link to the WSJ article in this thread.)

Call me old fashioned, but giving an angry drunk like Lewandowski a gun may not be such a great idea. DHS is a joke now (it kind of always was TBH). Part of the post 9/11 security theater than forced us into militarized USA. Saw a lot of this up close at major events, clown show.

The House GOP will do literally anything to avoid investigating what looks to be the largest pedo ring on the planet.

Now they want to probe Bad Bunnyโ€™s Super Bowl appearance.

Complicit clowns.

Why Impeaching Trump is a waste of time?

When he was first president, it was a good political move to give him a black eye like that. The idea being to make him look less appealing in the next election.

That clearly didn't work long term. Now it's just wasting time and resources for zero effect.

Stop calling Trump's horrible law "the Big, Beautiful Bill." Call it the "2025 Megabill" or the "Big, Ugly Bill." I don't care if "beautiful" is in the official name. Since when have people been bound by that? Do not echo right-wing sloganeering.
