Trump Has a Dangerous Disability

Great essay by a principled conservative - George Will. Thanks for linking to it.

I love this conclusion

So, it is up to the public to quarantine this presidency by insistently communicating to its elected representatives a steady, rational fear of this man whose combination of impulsivity and credulity render him uniquely unfit to take the nation into a military conflict.

Will refers to Trump as having a disability. Very very true. In addition I would observe that his disability is there as a result of mental illness brought on by his combination of extreme narcissism and living in an alternate reality of his own making other than the actual USA that the rest of us live in. The result is a horribly disturbed man who represents the greatest single threat to the American people and the world we have seen in many many decades.
 
Welcome to the best in Real World Drama! It took politically Perfect Storm conditions for Trump to become POTUS. Now the question becomes "can most of us weather the Storm?"

The Surreal has dovetailed with the Twilight Zone to create an Alternate Universe known as TrumpWorld... reliant on Grand Delusions and Alternative Facts.

An Opposition Group known as The Resistance continues to build momentum in a valiant quest to derail this Tyrant, pop the Delusions, save the United States and Planet Earth from unimaginable Chaos, Drama and Insanity!

Stay tuned for further Episodes! Prepare for the next Trump Twitter Tweet and to weather the next Trump Temper Tantrum... also known as a TripleTstorm!
 
Combine the Will column with this from another conservative and it looks very bad for Trumps over all mental health

Admittedly, this is a low bar. And this is not to deny the insanity, incoherence and sheer weirdness emanating daily from the White House, with which we’ve all come up with our own coping technique. Here’s mine: I simply view President Trump as the Wizard of Oz.

Loud and bombastic. A charlatan. Nothing behind the screen — other than the institutional chaos that defines his White House and the psychic chaos that governs his ever-changing mind. What to do? Ignore what’s behind the curtain.

Sooner or later even the GOP which runs Congress is going have to face up to the reality that the President of the USA is our version of The Madness of King George.
 
The real question is if he completely "wigs" out with North Korea or some other rogue nation, how many young Americans will needlessly die? Trump isn't comical anymore, he is mentally unstable and dangerous.

It has become painfully obvious that the Republican controlled Congress will NOT exercise its constitutional responsibilities of checks and balances and is willing to play ostrich on this matter. I suspect it will take something of the terrible nature that you described for even some of them to wake up. And even then many on the right will still cling to him like a life preserver in the cold waters of the Atlantic ocean from the TITANIC.
