Any psychologist or psychiatrist (or former abused spouse) will tell you that President Zelensky gave a master class today on how to deal with a malignant narcissist.

He is an amazing man. We can all learn from him.

So now after yesterday we are still supposed to believe that Trump didn’t try to pressure Zelensky to investigate Biden on that 2019 “perfect phone call”? That doesn’t seem like something he would’ve done?

We need to remember what happened in the Oval Office today.

Anyone want to bet that no one looks at the email responses that Musk asked for ?

It requires too much manpower and organization. Even w/AI

He will hold them in the event he has an interaction with someone.

If so, he can look up their response or lack of, and use it as cause for action.

Last night, Trump fired some of our nation's top military leaders. And every day he continues to threaten our democracy and the values we hold dear.

So this morning, I tossed out my prepared speech and talked about the nation and state that I have sworn to serve.
