Separately, I read about Michele Reiner & learned Jewish phrase - “Tikkun Olam,” that calls for repairing the world. I think that’s what we need to do. Repairing the world means stopping Trump.

My professional opinion-Trump has a Malignant Narcissistic Personality Disorder-all can see in his easy cruelty toward anyone he disrespects.My guess-he lies2himself as hisweak ego can’t take truth.

Remember when we were not losing jobs in droves, or at odds with all our allies, or attacking other nations for their resources, or deploying masked thugs to terrorize our citizens, or pardoning drug traffickers and violent criminals in exchange for bribes?

I hope people understand that if Trump gets his way America will soon be part of the global axis of evil if we aren't already. You see it in the Caribbean, you see it in Ukraine, and you see it with Trump trying to buddy up to Xi. We are a malevolent force.

Trump is such a psychological weakling, he must need to lie to himself as much as to everyone about everything.

From now on, political scientists will need to study psychology as well as history,current events, global migration,etc.

Trump is a malignant, narcissistic personality disordered person.

My take -Putin must have something on Trump,as in 2013 video taken of Trump & prostitutes in his hotel room when he was there for Miss Universe contest. Sounds like DT since all have heard Trump say - ‘I can grab women by the …-they let me cause I’m a star.’

Trump’s acquiescence to Putin - during his 1st admin, also - saying he believed Putin over US intelligence- leads me to think there is something to the Christopher Steele dossier that said Putin/Russia had compromising video of DT in his hotel room w/prostitutes during 2013 Miss Universe contest.

The wholesale murder of people in international waters, without due process, is a crime.

If left unchecked, it will lead to more such crimes.

This is how things work.

Letting them get away with it is the same as giving them permission to keep doing it.
