Can I post a reminder?

[Atticus]

IMHO, the most common mistake we make in considering what Trump does and says---and which generates the most stress---is that we try to MAKE SENSE out of it. We look for some REASON, some PLAN, some GOAL.

Trump is insane. He has no concept of any of the terms I just typed in all caps.

I am torn between just two alternative "policy statements" for the Trump regime: "Whatever!" or "Shit Happens!"

1. I use a simple question

How does any decision benefit him personally? One is hard-pressed to find anything he’s done that doesn’t have some reward for his lardness.

2. Definitely the most openly self-serving President since at least Nixon...

probably longer. Usually, presidents at least pretend to give a shit about the American people. Trump can't even fake it in a way that fools any but his asshole base.

3. His supporters over at FR believe most everything he does is part of a brilliant master plan

They may not understand his actions so they just give him god-like status and say he operates in mysterious ways and soon, the truth will be revealed to all.

4. Haven't taken his statements as literal since birtherism.

Looking forward to no more policy by tweet.

5. Trump's worshipers depict him as a super hero.

Flying across the US flag.
A muscle bound Rambo for Chris sake.
Alfa Male of his adoring rally crowds.
Something has gone terribly wrong here.
