Trump instability crosses all party lines

Here is the Mayo Clinic’s definition of narcissistic personality disorder: Belief that you are special and more important than others. Fantasies about power, success, and attractiveness. Failure to recognize others’ needs and feelings. Exaggeration of achievements or talents. Expectation of constant praise and admiration. Arrogance. Unreasonable expectations of favors and advantages, often taking advantage of others. Envy of others or belief that others envy you.

The current President of the United States, according to his self-proclaimed image, is smarter than any of his appointees and anyone who disagrees with him. He personally takes credit for everything, however challenging, giving himself a “10” for his involvement. He states that the news media is biased against him personally and produces fake news. The man stays up in the middle of the night responding in anger by tweeting responses to people who do not agree with him. And he definitely has a problem with impulse control, something that our country and the world as whole should fear.

We have a president who is clinically mentally ill and unfit to hold office. Can Congress and the majority of Americans hang in there much longer without taking action? This is not about Democrat vs. Republican differences of opinion. It’s about having an unstable, narcissistic man in the White House.

Liberal blame better than TV

I would like to take a moment and thank all the liberals writing in to your paper to complain about the president. It’s better entertainment than any TV. I can’t wait to wake up and read them: adults acting like spoiled little brats in the grocery store who can’t have candy.

Lose the election and start complaining about everything. Now the electoral college is not good anymore. Russians are coming, atom bombs will be dropped and there will be total destruction. Good stuff.

If you liberals really want to put blame on the subject, go to your mirror and point the finger. Your arrogance and cheating has given you “the Antichrist” as you call him, the most powerful position on Earth. You cheated Bernie out of his nomination, then tried cheating everyone else. But you got caught. Somehow that is the Russians’ fault. I still cant figure that one.

The Russians did not write those emails. But, even after all that, you are so arrogant that your nominee was the only person in the history of mankind that could lose to Donald Trump. Heck, the way you put it. Genghis Khan or Hitler would have beat him.

Well, I have at least three more years of entertainment. Thank you, Democrats.
