Harry Reid once said that politics had a “feral side” to it. Likewise, John McCain commented, “This isn’t a nice business we’re in.” They were both old warhorses who got into politics young and stayed in the game until death them did part, after having risen very high in Washington power circles. They knew their chosen profession for what it was and saw it with clear eyes, the beneficial and detrimental aspects, both.

But even those two luminaries never saw anything even remotely like Donald Trump and his brand of feral or not nice. Feral particularly applies to Trump, because that’s about the only way his level of incivility descending to the level of inhumanity would make sense, would be if he had been born a feral child in the Australian outback or some such, and not with a silver spoon in his mouth, in a penthouse. Many a psychological treatise has been written on Trump, not just by his niece, Mary Trump, and many more will be written.

Sunday morning Trump reviled Nancy Pelosi, the woman who, in my opinion, scares him a hell of a lot more than Hillary Clinton ever did. Trump is terrified of Pelosi.

That was the warm up. It went downhill quickly. My take? He got off the phone with the lawyers.

And yes, it got worse. This is the formula.

He’s losing it in real time, folks. I think the mental health community calls this “decompensating.” It’s the inability to maintain normal or appropriate psychological defenses. I think Trump is going nuts.

  1. He needs to be held in pre-trial detention. Running for office is irrelevant. Eugene Debs managed to run for president from a jail cell, Cheeto Jesus can as well. Enough deference for an office he once held, he’s just a regular defendent and should be treated as such.

    • I think, “THEY”, the Prosecutors, Judges and even Nancy Pelosi, as a victim/s of Trump’s vile threats, should immediately place the world’s biggest loser in protective custody, behind bars, without any of his pocket items … THAT would quiet his ALL CAPS messaging to those deranged Proud Boys and others with guns … his, personal property would be filed away until his release … (Like any other common Criminal in temporary custody)

      We would NOT want any disappointed Maga nuts to injure or eliminate Trump with one of their AR15’s and mounds of ammo …

      AND Ours!

    • ^^^^^^THIS^^^^^^
      Put Traitor Tot in jail like any other criminal awaiting trial! If it was you or me that committed the crimes Traitor Tot has been indicted for, we would be in jail right now! He needs to be treated like any other criminal!!

    • I prefer the option of taking superglue to his lips AND his fingertips. That would keep him silent, both vocally (although he’d still be able to make truly unintelligible noises as opposed to the word salad he typically spews) and via texting/social media (can’t type when your fingertips are glued together).

      Some might consider this to be “cruel and unusual punishment”; I consider it a case of “the punishment fitting the crime (or criminal as the case may be)”.

      The duck tape would eventually work loose due to all the slobber he’d produce.

  2. Ursula, you think tRump is GOING nuts??? He’s been certifiably mentally ill since childhood, or at least since early adulthood! He should be evaluated by a psychiatrist and treated as a criminally insane defendant or better yet, be too mentally ill to stand trial. I suspect tRump has refused this plan somewhere along the line. When (not if) ALL of tRump’s attorneys grab their brief cases and their coffee cups and flee the courtroom because it’s impossible to defend tRump, perhaps these legal eagle judges will consider the criminally insane idea. That’s the way to put him away and never hear from him again!!!

    • Your point is certainly valid. What I see, though, is a desperation, an unraveling I haven’t seen before. And understandably so. He is in a LOT of legal trouble. Any normal person would be having conniption fits over one indictment, one trial. This is surreal, the level of trouble he’s in.

  3. Feral animals and people need to be able to survive, on their own, in a world in which everything including their own kind is out to basically kill and eat them. Former guy is a cossetted, fat, and ill-tempered chihuahua. One that has been spoiled, over-fed, and who bites any and all hands that feeds it. One which would expire in as little as one week if it ever had to live as a feral.

    Calling former guy a feral anything is an incredible insult to feral animals and humans. Should former guy get what he has earned-a shopping cart with all the possessions he could put in it and an old bathrobe-he’d be lucky to last one week.

      • I well remember two feral cats at a local animal shelter run by a lady I knew. They were soooo beautiful. But they were totally feral, wanting nothing to do with people. They sat on a high shelf, together, and snarled at everybody.

        Their beauty alone would have gotten them far in life had they been socialized as kittens. It was such a shame.

  4. So he’s now the property manager of Hell? Finally he is in the right job at the right place. If I were Satan, I’d keep an eye on the receipts.

  5. Dig, dig, dig! He’s attacking all the right people, the ones who are going to decide his fate. It’s just a matter of time before Judge Chutkan says “Enough!” and puts his butt in jail. There will be a huge throng outside the courthouse on that day cheering her decision.

  6. The decompensating Mango Moron is now showing his true colours, to one and all.
    He’s been flipped onto his back from been soundly and legally been given a good kick up his fat arse. He’s yelping like a trapped, wounded cur, whilst pretending to be still relevant to his adoring pack. In reality he’s demonstrating how spineless, weak and worthless – feckless – he is; reduced to barking hollow threats and name calling, as his collar tightens and his chain shortens, as he gets dragged flailing on his back, to be incarcerated in his mangy kennel. Locked up he’ll be denied his privilege which he’s used to directly threaten and oppress others. Rest assured though he’ll show how much of a feckless cu*t he really is. He’ll reveal his real level of lacking in intestinal fortitude, consideration, sensitivity and strength of character – or has he arrived at that point already, one wonders.

    • I honestly believe he is decompensating and I have no formal education in psychology beyond the 101 class in my freshman year of college. I’m looking around for Mary Trump to appear. I would think she’ll be out soon with an opinion.

  7. Actually his character (to use the term loosely) makes perfect sense. In geberal, people born into wealrth grow up beieveing that everything is theirs. A very few overcome it. Mostly they just learn to grab everything politely. Some don’t learn that. Trump**’s actual behavior is no different from that of any billionaire – he’s just more obviousl about it.

    Never fall for the imyth that those born into wealth (“gentlemen” and women) necessarily have any good qualities.
    It;s all veneer.

  8. Lock him up in Belleview with the option to go to Guantanamo if he improves. But make sure he has a life time of commitment with no access to any media.

  9. The Punisher-in-Chief is off the rails. The man is filled and consumed with so much bile, he is a walking cancer swamp. The angry hatred that spews out of his toxic orifice is a danger to civilized society. His followers are anti-patriots who shame the nation, through their blind allegiance to their traitorous idol.

  10. BEFORE Trump took the office, I said I thought he would rue the day he ever ran for presdient. The dirty, cruel & vicious way he treated people, was/is inhuman. He’s a sociopath X 100 & has the mind of a ruthless, vindictive & evil psycho who doesn’t have the ability to behave in a civilized manner & lives to get revenge on his adversaries. Trump has been a mob boss all his miserable life, & has lied, stolen & cheated his way through life because that’s the only way he knew. His cheerleaders/voters are the dregs of American society, the uneducated rednecks, hicks & hillbillies who have no clue how much harm they are asking for by “supporting” him again. Trump should have been in jail decades ago. Our whole country, our whole “news” media, our whole political discourse has been about Trump, Trump, Trump… for about the last 10 years. If we actually knew the whole degree of harm this lunatic has wrought upon us, the death, destruction & waste of precious years, a “Trump era” that has set our country back in so man, by decades, much of the harm completely permanent & unfixable.

  11. trump is a spoiled brat , he has screwed over so many people . Refused to pay people that had done work for him , that’s why nobody will do work for him anymore , unless they get their money up front . I’m sooo sick of him !
