Brilliant...The entire terrifying situation in a nutshell...I do not know if you are aware of Dr Bandy Lee's open letter released just yesterday to the 4 living former Presidents, begging them to get together and make public announcements? Maybe you and she could get together to amplify your urgently needed messages??? God help us...And thank you...

Thanks for another trump breakdown essay Jim. I mean "breakdown" literally btw. I wonder, that now he's told his immediate team that he will pardon them for following his illegal orders how much they'll still follow him. Aren't we disregarding the fact that though they want to keep making money by proximity to him that there might be at least one moral bone in their body that makes them realise that they may retain their freedom but they will be ostracised from society? btw The Kinks certainly knew this character even before he came into power lol. I know people believe he might nuke Iran but as his family are heavily investing in drone warfare. That would be pointless as they couldn't sell their product if he killed off the enemy outright?

Yeah, the Kink's lyrics say it all. Nice touch.

Reading this, I felt I was trying to digest one of Dr. Bandy X. Lee's publications. Your writing here mirrors hers, but is more approachable and nuanced. Every day is an opportunity for new and more dangerous horrors.

Powerful and disturbing. Nothing stands between us and tRump firing off nukes as his narcissistic collapse accelerates. I find it interesting that his personal collapse may be accelerating the collapse not just of the American Empire but higher civilization itself.

Nothing good can come out of a Dark Triad personality. If only someone could have seen this coming! (snark) Thanks Jim.

You've nailed it once again, Jim. trump is his own worst enemy. We are witnessing the ugly end to a man that was flawed at birth in real time. Excellent piece this evening ✨ Thank you, Jim, for making us look at What he Does, Not what he Says, and will reStack ASAP 🙏
