We all know that Trump is a petty sumbitch who hates Obama with every atom in his blubbery body

But I wonder if he even knows WHY he hates Obama so much. I look at this guy and I say to myself that, where we're going, we need to get ready for when we all get there.

Consider the trajectory here: It's quite clear that Trump wouldn't know the truth even if it bit his flabby ass, but he also suffers from an extreme degree of low self-esteem, he retains a mediocre intellect, he skirts all responsibility for his own actions, he has no moral center whatsoever and he's utterly lazy and irresponsible... But is he even capable of the kind of self-reflection which could also allow himself to understand his own motivations?

I doubt it, though, because I've never seen such an unrepentant ignoramus before in my entire life. He's obviously someone who's skirted though life without any effort on his own part and was simply told by sycophants how great he was... And he believed every word of it, because all he values in life are the opinions of others. It's like he has no capacity to reason whatsoever and he's instead, nothing but ALL reaction. I wonder sometimes if he even knows what he's doing or saying at any given time. And yet, he's singularly focused on hating on Obama... Why?

Obama, and Hillary by extension of her position of heir apparent, are always living rent free in Trump's empty head. He inserts both into his language out of context at the drop of a hat. Yes, we all know how racist and sexist he is, but he's so specific about it, in always focusing on Obama and Hillary.

Is he just jealous of their own considerable and well established intellect and accomplishments?

Is Trump so fucking ignorant that he has no idea how ignorant he actually is, and yet, feels that he has to compensate for his own shortcomings by rendering others?

Is just nothing more than a fucking asshole?

I have no idea.

I do understand, however, that he's completely unfit to be President of the United States and presents an existential threat to each and every one of us. He's being protected by a combination of partisan politics and the urge to normalize his behavior as a means to an end. What he is, though, is a failure of our entire political system. Someone this flawed should not only had been elected, he should have never been considered suitable to enter any major political party as a viable candidate.

He's not the cause, he's merely the symptom of an even greater problem that this country has. This country is too fucked up for its own good. And I blame the gawddamn Republicans, the uberwealthly motherfuckers who pay for them AND all the regressive dipshits who vote for them. They've been allowed to get away with murder for far too long, without any consequences for their own actions.

Well, it's about time that the chickens come home to roost for all of them. We can fight them, and we should, be we won't be able to completely beat them. And that's where Trump, and his Tuttle inability to understand why he does the things he does. The one sure thing that we all know about Trump is that he ALWAYS stabs those who support him in the back. One should only trust Trump at their own peril. He's going to be the worst thing to happen to the far right... ever. Although we're all going to feel some pain here, that's inevitable, I figure that we all have to take that fall in order to move beyond it. We can resist and we should, but I'm afraid that we're beyond the tipping point here.

The system is too rigged and the motherfuckers who rigged it can't see beyond their own noses.

When the shit does hit then fan, the left needs to step in and reform and refashion the system. We've had three attempts after winger failures of the past, the most successful one being the New Deal and the latest being Obama's presidency, however the winger backlashes only took us two steps back. In the next recovery, we need to take it even farther. We need to fix the system which was so broken that allowed an unfit assclown like Trump to get his stubby fingers on the nuke codes.

We need a fucking plan and we need to work together. Shit's going down the pike, we need to be prepared.

What do you all say?


FDT.

I only wish I had a small degree of the calm demeanor Barack and Michelle Obama have when they discuss the Orange Blunder.

Time to air out what has gotten us here and take actions to prevent it happening again. Objective study into how and why our society votes against our own interests. It ain’t natural.

although he disliked President Obama, the real turning point was that now famous WH Correspondence Dinner where he eviscerated Trump in front of what he thought were his peers. In the vid (see YouTube) Obama IMO did a fabulous job of hitting Trump on so many hot button areas that he sought revenge. The great part though was the lack of any smile or positive reaction, as those who get roasteddo, made the tape a national joke....the joke being on Trump as one whose frail and oversized ego can't stand anything but good press. At the time, every major TV media and on-line media played the vid numerous times.

Btw, it's still one of the best WHCD roasts of all time! Hilarious!

They are brainwashed and spoon fed lies. I live in a red area and I haven't a clue how to get through to these people that they are always voting against their own interests. They don't believe facts, science, or truth.

Not sure if it could be done today because as you say they have Gerrymandered districts & planted officials galore-then there are no paper voting machines.

But the general idea is you can not eliminate a part of human nature-Greed.

You must legislate it out of existence by making offshore investments heavily taxed & anything that does not promote growth of American jobs is penalized.

FDR was able to do that with a stacked deck & bully pulpit - and a public that was well educated & understood what we were up against.

Probably our biggest problem is the Fox News effect obfuscating truth & making people angry at each other-not the eople actually screwing them repentantly.

Getting rid of trump will be a time of great joy for us all, but it won't solve our problems. We have to go after the entire viper's nest of republican officials and make damn sure every citizen has the right and the opportunity to vote so that the dumbasses can't out vote us ever again. Imo there is nothing more important than regaining and enforcing voting rights. Then GOTV for Democrats.

He really wishes he could be like Obama, respected like Obama, loved like Obama, maybe even have Michelle like Obama. He envy Obama's looks and intellect.

He hasn't spent a good night sleeping since Obama announced his first run for the Presidency.

Trump is a racist for sure but magnify his racism by envy of the object of his racism and that's Trump.

Let one of them complain about the slightest thing and I will remind them that they voted for it in spite of all the warning signs.

They. Will. Own. It.
