Trump Has Lost It. The Good News Is That Everybody Knows It

Several years ago, I wrote an article that I thought was important at the time, simply because it probed so deeply into Traitor Tot’s psyche. And never has that article been more pertinent and timely than right now.

It might not amaze you to read that I have nine books on His Lowness in my Kindle library. Can’t write if you don’t research. And for my money, there was no other book that was as timely, well researched and founded, and more thought provocative than Dr. Mary Trump’s Too Much And Never Enough, a deep dive family history into the entire sick, twisted Trump clan.

I wrote at the time that what struck me the most is that Mary Trump actually pinpointed the most critical event in his young life that would shape his psyche for all the years that followed. The family was at dinner. Eight year old Donald was happily verbally and emotionally torturing his younger brother. His older brother Fred Jr. told him to cut it out. Young Donald ignored him, and in a fit of anger and frustration, Fred Jr. dumped an entire bowl of mashed potatoes over Donald’s head, while the entire table, his father included, roared with laughter.

According to Mary Trump, this broke something in young Donald. He revered his father, who famously told him on his knee that There are winners, and there are suckers. Which are you going to be? His father, sitting there laughing at young Donnie, mashed potatoes plopping down from his head did it. As the young Trump ran from the table, he swore a mighty oath to himself that he would never be scorned or laughed at again. This is why Trump’s smile always seems forced and phony, he never laughs, and on the rare social occasions, usually political that he tries telling a joke, it comes out somehow sounding like a eulogy. There is no humor in Donald Trump’s mental makeup.

There’s just one problem. Donald Trump is an ass clown. Look, people like Sir Richard Branson, Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, and even Jamie Dimon don’t get where they are without over weaning egos. But they have mastered the craft of at least learning a sense of humor, sometimes even a self deprecating sense of humor to give them that common touch. Donald Trump totally lacks this trait of personality.

And as a result, everybody just keeps laughing at him. And I don’t mean just now, as a doddering old buffoon pretending to be President, I mean from the earliest parts of his career as a real estate developer.

In the early days, Trump, desperate for the adulation and attention of the New York media developed a scheme in which he called tabloid reporters claiming to be John Barron, his own PR flack, and giving them lascivious tidbits on his nocturnal adventures, and how much money he was raising for his next project. Problem is, he didn’t disguise his voice, and became a New York print media laughing stock.

Thomas Edison once imparted his strategy as an inventor and entrepreneur, First sell the idea, and then build the f*cking thing. This became Trump’s business persona. Promise the moon, and then, in two years when the whole thing came crashing down like a house of cards, nobody would notice or remember. Except for the fact that with Trump’s overbearing, arrogant attitude, the media was more than happy to rub his nose in his failures. For which the canned response was, Any media is good media.

Even his vaunted success as a reality show star was a joke in bad taste. And not just to the media, it was a joke in bad taste to the viewers. They didn’t tune in  because Emperor Numbus Nuttus was this larger than life mogul they respected. They tuned in to watch a fat, pompous, arrogant *sshole derisively slam dunk everybody sitting at the table. It was like Hell’s Kitchen, except without the pots and pans. It was humiliating and degrading. And then this moron wonders why he never won an Emmy.

And now he’s back on the world stage again, and it isn’t just the American mainstream media or the American viewing audience that’s laughing their asses off at him, it’s the entire free world. For two reasons. First of all, transactional Trump spits out whatever nonsensical gibberish that comes to mind, without any recognition that it totally contradicts something that he had been preaching as gospel earlier. And second, if you catch him in the zone, he’ll do it in the same f*cking conversation or speech!

In TrumpaPalooza I, El Pendejo Presidente darkly threatened to pull the US out of the NATO treaty of the deadbeat members didn’t start ponying up. I can’t imagine the free world leaders quaking in their boots, since they knew something The Cheeto Prophet apparently didn’t. That it would take a 67 vote Senate threshold to abrogate a treaty. Could he reneg on out contributions to NATO? Possible, but highly unlikely since our NATO contributions are part of the budget process, and unlikely to change.

And now yesterday, His Lowness spoke with great passion, or as much passion as a dead carp can muster, about the solvency and resiliency of NATO, how proud he was that the NATO members were kicking in their fair share, and how now the US was a committed HAPPY Warrior in the NATO bloc.

The poor, stupid, brainless bastard. What he doesn’t realize is that the NATO countries haven’t raised their GDP spending levels on their own defense in response to his nonsensical threats that he blustered out 5-8 years ago. They have increased their national defense spending in order to continue to support Ukraine, whom they see as the final bulwark against Russian aggression with money and weapons to continue the fight! And with his ringing endorsement of NATO, this imbecile just subliminally put the US all in in funding Ukraine against Putin’s aggression.

I wonder how Vlad the Imp feels about this little development. This hasn’t been a good year for Putin. North Korea has stopped sending his cannon fodder for Ukraine, Bashar al Assad’s ouster has placed his fleet base access in peril, and with Assad now safely tucked up in Moscow, he knows how the US felt with Marcos puttering uselessly around. And with Iran now back on their heels, and their proxies, the Houthi in Yemen, Hezbollah in Lebanon, and HAMAS in Gaza now largely neutralized, Supreme Leader in Iran is no longer a soft touch for weapons and drones. And now Emperor Numbus Nuttus is pledging fealty to NATO on behalf of Ukraine.

Make no mistake about it, this is going to be an incredibly perilous 3 1/2 years, not only for the United States, but for the free world. Ever since World War II, and the NATO charter, the United States has been the bulwark of freedom and democracy throughout the world. But now we’re stuck with a clueless dotard that couldn’t find Syria, Ukraine, Iran, and probably even Israel on a globe. The one shining light is that our opponents are at least in as much disrepair and flux as we are, and that the good guys at NATO are starting to figure out how to deal with this delusional character. Don’t touch that dial.

I thank you for the privilege of your time.
