I believe he is both a serial liar, fully committed to his lies, and is dangerously delusional.

I absolutely agree that the MSM is absolutely pushing the Republican talking points and ignoring the crazy that is Trump.

Finally someone is tackling this issue in the appropriate light. DJT and Biden are both old individuals, but only one of them has behaved erratically and deranged (hint: it’s not 46). The “Biden’s age” narrative must be countered with the reality of the mentally unstable old person in DJT, who seems to be in a serious cognitive decline as witnessed in all of his public statements, particularly during interviews. To not do so would be irresponsibly silly.

If age is going to be brought front and center, then DJT’s age and mental decline can’t be ignored.

I’ve been reading the newsletter of Dr. Brandy Lee, the psychologist who warned us over 7 years ago about the “dangerous case of Donald Trump.” In this article, she describes how Trump has literally caused a psychotic contagion. We are in very dangerous waters due to this sick man.

Hi Dean, thanks for bringing this topic up, it seems the MSM is not focused on this aspect of Donald, of his mental regression, his fits of rage, his constant lying. All these symptoms point to a severely mentally challenged individual unfit to be a leader of a party much less a president, a president that bases his entire campaign on revenge on folks who he perceives as his enemies. Time for an intervention by his children or his wife due to the fact no one in his family wants to be around him.

What I don’t understand is how Trump (or anyone for that matter) is allowed to participate in any election after having shown the world that he will only accept the results IF HE WINS. If he tells us he won’t trust the process then why allow him to participate?

I think we need to add an oath to the application to be on any ballot. Within it, a candidate must ‘officially’ accept the results of an election after all accusations of misdeeds or fraud have been adjudicated. If they ever again want to be a candidate for that office or any other they cannot be on the ballot without officially accepting the results of all previous elections. Doesn’t that make sense? Can we do it??

And nobody, nobody is challenging his lies: "We are a nation in decline. We are a failing nation. We are a nation that has the highest inflation in 50 years," etc., etc., ad nauseum. This is the same type of trash talk he gave at one of his State of the Union addresses. He speaks from the darkness of his decayed soul.

I I strongly agree with this and many other views expressed by Dean. Recently I've been viewing info on malignant narcissism, how it appears to be a common trait/category among leaders, especially dictators. Leaders afflicted with MN try very hard to get others to follow their example, often under threat of violence. In my opinion not only is pathological narcissism the motivating force behind autocratic rule, but it motivates captains of industry and the very wealthy to use any methods necessary to gain political control, ignoring the constraints of morality fairness or empathy. (Citizens United was a decision just asking for trouble.)

We all have varying degrees of narcissism, apparently its degree is something that is vulnerable to manipulation, by the truly pathologically narcissistic. Here is some interesting info., if 1933-1945 weren't enough warning, the papers below provide at the very least, implicit warning why today's far right movements and human rights violations here at home and abroad are things that warrant strong resistance. Both articles are available online.

Speaking of a face only "Media" could love......

Just now caught you on Stephanie Miller's FSTV program. You sparkle Deano!

Keep up the exposure on any and all MSM outlets. You are one of the best.

Exactly, Dean, but that has ALWAYS been Trump. [Just ask Howard Stern who shudders at what Trump's early childhood was like -- no, not a punchline for peace, a maudlin reality.]

Saw you last night and you belong there -- gives the entire channel a boost.

If he cries about attacks on his !st Ammendment rights, they ignore Hunter Biden's 2nd Ammendent rights! Oh yes, every member of all political families should be well-armed! Give the Communists the means to defend themselves against the Fascists! IT'S THE WOKE THING TO DO! -- Hones Charlie -- Absurd Times.

I've been posting and commenting for months saying that Trump should have a complete mental and psychological test. This should be for anyone who wants to run for any type of government office. The Lincoln Project recently posted a bit on Trump's "senility" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgjS_7eNoOg For Pete's sake he sounds like Porky Pig at times!

It has been crystal clear that trump is a dangerous psychotic and delusional criminal of the highest order. That we allow him on the streets is utterly irresponsible and unforgivable!

Dean, I shared this story on MASTODON and anywhere else I have contacts. I cannot watch the Fascist liar so hearing about these latest incidents is good to know. Thank you for your valuable reports.

Since Biden won by 8mil votes last time and RescumliCons have continued to remove women’s rights, encouraged more racist attacks, bash LGBTQI+, ban books, attempt christian sharia-style law...I don’t buy in to the close-call crap. The right wingers own the airwaves, the large majority of American public would not make this a close call!

Nevertheless, the justice department should remove this multi-criminal from the streets of our country. For our protection!

The APA's Goldwater rule is why most are still in the dark about trump's dangerous psychology. https://samray.substack.com/p/psychiatry-and-psychology-are-failing

I recall Bill Palmer writing years ago, as investigators revealed the depth of Trump’s criminal lifestyle, the Party would start trickling out about Donald’s cognitive decline, use dementia like a ski mask for the cabal and switch Dicks mid-season.

Plus he has literally thousands of partners in shared paranoid disorder.
