Donald In Dunderland
The White House tea party swamp gone mad:  Red Queen Melania, contemplates nothing;  sleepy Dour-mouse Sean Spicer, harangues the press;  White Power Rabbit and shithead, Steven Bannon, anxiously pines for the Apocalypse;  Puppet Master Vladimir Putin finds new ways to torture us through Donald Trump;  Mad Don Trump continues to compulsively point out how “tremendously popular” he is;  blather-mouth Sophist Kellyammer CONway has lied herself into a stupor;  CONspiracy Cat Alex Jones yaks up another hissy fit, while daughter in Dunder*land, Ivanka, practices smiling.  In the center of it all sits the nuclear football, surrounded by a host of sundry D.C. swamp creatures.

John D. Gartner, a practicing psychotherapist who taught psychiatric residents at Johns Hopkins University Medical School, weighs in with his professional assessment of Donald Trump.

Donald Trump is dangerously mentally ill and temperamentally incapable of being president. Trump has “malignant narcissism“— which is different from narcissistic personality disorder, and which is incurable.”

 

 Eliot A. Cohen, The Atlantic
 Precisely because the problem is one of temperament and character, it will not get better.  It will get worse, as power intoxicates Trump and those around him.  It will probably end in calamity—substantial domestic protest and violence, a breakdown of international economic relationships, the collapse of major alliances, or perhaps one or more new wars (even with China) on top of the ones we already have.  It will not be surprising in the slightest if his term ends not in four or in eight years, but sooner, with impeachment or removal under the 25th Amendment.  The sooner Americans get used to these likelihoods, the better.

 

Jesus did not look with approval upon the refusal to employ force to protect the majority of any given human group against the unfair and enslaving practices of unjust minorities who may be able to entrench themselves behind political, financial, or ecclesiastical power.
