Excellent analysis of Trump's Malignant Narcissism, and significant cognitive decline, how the two together make each other worse, and the risk of a society at large that normalizes personality disorders and dementia.

Truth hurts.
Reminder of who the real threat was, and who the threat has never been.
Maybe today should be a day of atonement.

Really fucking solid piece of analysis right here:
New piece.
A long deep dive piece into the reasons beyond the punditry and headlines as to why Harris and Democrats as a whole failed in 2024.
I firmly believe this is about far more existential, psychological, and structural reasons than it has been depicted as. Here’s why.

The Deeper Reasons Democrats Lost
It wasn't just that Trump got more votes. It wasn't just that Harris had lower turnout. A deep dive into the psychological, existential, and systemic reasons Harris and Democrats didn't win in 2024.

I’m convinced that whatever passes as the “Republican Party” requires a level of pathology most of us are unwilling to tolerate.
They’ve cornered the market on DARVO, and every other possible toxic trait known to humanity.

When Trump admin officials get asked why a certain sector of the economy is so bad, 90% of the time their answers begin with “we inherited.” Did everyone forget what Biden inherited in Jan 2021? Or what Obama inherited in Jan 2009? When are Republicans ever responsible?

Bill Clinton never went to Epstein’s island. Flight logs from Epstein criminal cases (which have been public for years) show no flights by Clinton.
Fact-checkers have revisited this claim &. The answer has not changed - no evidence Clinton set foot on that island & records show he didn’t.
