QOTD: The Untethered Malignant Loser




National security expert Tom Nichols writes in The Atlantic about the deranged Malignant Loser's widely remarked-on rally in Las Vegas, when he veered into talk about electric boats and sharks:

"Nor was the Vegas monologue the first time: Trump for years has fallen off one verbal cliff after another, with barely a ripple in the national consciousness. I am not a psychiatrist, and I am not diagnosing Trump with anything. I am, however, a man who has lived on this Earth for more than 60 years, and I know someone who has serious emotional problems when I see them played out in front of me, over and over. The 45th president is a disturbed person. [snip]

Donald Trump is unstable. Some of these problems were evident when he first ran, and we now know from revelations by many of his former staff that his problems processing information and staying tethered to reality are not part of some hammy act." (our emphasis)

It's gotten so bad with the Orange Turd that even his comfort zone, Fux "News", won't run his speeches live any more because they're clear evidence of a disturbed personality (they've also been burned by embracing his Big Lie, having lost a massive judgement to Dominion Voting Systems). 

Having the deranged Malignant Loser free to hold rallies where he spouts both nonsense and dangerous violent threats won't affect his numbers among his equally deranged hard core cult, but should remind voters who are undecided or wavering how unfit this convicted felon is to be the commander-in-chief.
