“Television is actually closer to reality than anything in books. The madness of TV is the madness of human life” ~~~ Camille Paglia

The World is witnessing History like no one ever has before. At one time, you could just pick up a book or newspaper and read all about it …or if you were a victim of oppression, you would’ve experienced that episode in History, first hand!
Today, we’re living in the age of Technology and Mass Media, a marriage between Social Journalism and traditional Journalism …it’s the age of Communication; Cables & Satellites. The whole world is watching it, all in real time…all in Living Color on Live TV, through Social Media in the Internet, and even right out of your Smartphone.

It’s virtually impossible to hide political transparency when the world is seeing all your actions and hearing all your words…you can remain in denial forever, but you can’t change the fact of what you see and what you hear imprinted in your mind.

We, the People…and the rest of the World…are watching a Paranoid/Schizophrenic Narcissistic Psychopath rapidly slipping into Madness.
The more the Real World closes in, the more he retreats into his false bravado …thus making him more dangerous. His daily meltdowns …whether with Americans of every race, color; and creed, or his meltdowns with World Leaders and with other Countries is not conducive for peaceful resolutions…it just causes more unnecessary tension!
His Surrealistic World is crumbling away right in front of him, while the Real World is about to catch him with his little hands in the cookie jar …and all he does is just sit there Tweeting away, attacking everyone for attacking his vanity?!?!

Donald Trump has always been a few cans short of a 6 pack. Long ago, he escaped into his own little world of Illusions & Delusions. A world of Dictators, Cops & Robbers, Gangsters & Villains, Good Guys & Bad Guys. A world where he’s “The Man”! The Toughest & Strongest Guy in the world, the most Intelligent Man on the Planet, and the most Handsome Lady’s Man on the face of this Earth!
His Racism & Bigotry comes straight out of Fred Trump’s KKK Hood. He’s lived an entire life based on lies, deceits, and denials…he’s never known the difference between his own little world and the world of reality!

The problem, America has never gone through this type of “episode” in its History …not everyone has lived through times like this, no way to really understand.
Instead of attacking immigrants, people should expand the mind that God gave them and take heed from those Americans who once immigrated themselves, to avoid the exact tyranny that’s brewing up in America!
No one ever believed what’s happening today will ever happen here in the good old Red, White, & Blue USA, We’re #1! And so many still believe and say; Everything will get back to normal once he’s gone?!?!
How many times do you have to say; “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”? America! better wake-up and smell the coffee!

He’s the “King of Israel”? Doesn’t take much to inspire this King. The latest to target Trump’s gullibility is Right-Wing radio host Wayne Allyn Root who called him the “Chosen one” & the King of Israel. Then, to really schmear it on thick he called the Trumpster; “The 2nd Coming of God”! …and yes! St. Donald sucked it all up!
You would think someone with Jewish In-Laws …Jared sees him almost everyday and with Ivanka who converted to Judaism, he would at least ask a few questions? But King Donald is a stable genius…he knows everything!
Hey King! Someone is pulling your awesome leg! Sorry to say, but you can’t ever be the 2nd Coming of God cause the Jews are still waiting for his 1st Coming!

Every Narcissist King, Emperor, or Dictator crashed & burned …King Donald is the biggest Narcissist in the History of the World since Narcissus!
The Achilles Heel of a Narcissist is his gullibility, and no one in the world is more gullible in World Politics than Donald Trump. Which explains how simple and easy every crook and despot around the world uses the Trumpster for all their own personal gains…especially Vlad!
It’s no secret he has a few loose screws, all anyone really has to do is make Trump feel like a God! Compliment him and lay it on thick, and he’ll follow you anywhere…plus kiss your ass 2x a day!

As the days pass, the antics of this man has moved into the bizarre…the stable genius has become a very unstable mental case! It’s become an obsession that people believe his lies, and his regular obsession of taking credit for other people’s achievements has become an even bigger obsession, now …even if the entire world knows it’s total bullshit.
It’s his dire need to be #1, to be “The Man”!

And the saddest thing of all; absolutely no one out there…neither his family, his friends, nor the GOP give a damn to go out and help him with his sickness! Pity!

Though there are more, here’s 6 Basic Signs & Symptoms of “Narcissistic Personality Disorder”:
1) Grandiose sense of self-importance.
2) Needs constant praise and admiration.
3) Lives in a Fantasy World that supports their delusions of grandeur.
4) Frequently demeans, intimidates, bullies, or belittles others.
5) Exploits others without guilt or shame.
6) Sense of Entitlement
Yes! Donald Trump is definitely the Poster Boy for NPD!

How Narcissistic is The Donald? or is he just plain “Loco en el Coco”? or Both?
Let’s take a look at some of his exploits:
1) Claimed he was awarded Michigan’s “Man of the Year Award” …though no one in Michigan ever heard about it.
2) Made a phony “Time Man of the Year” Cover and had it hanged in all Trump properties.
3) His nominations for the “Nobel Peace Prize” were forged …twice.
4) Said he got an “Award” by the Log Cabin Republicans, the LGBT group of the GOP …nope, never happened.
5) He truly believes that he deserves both the Purple Heart & the Medal of Honor…this, from a 5x Draft Dodger.
6) Tweeted that he’s very Handsome and a very Stable Genius.
7) Believes his face should be placed on Mt. Rushmore.
8) Believes a National Holiday should be named after him.
9) The King of Israel BS was not a “Joke” as he tried to say, afterward. It was real…he really in his heart believes he’s the “Chosen One”.
10) Once said; “The beauty of me is that I’m very rich”.
11) Once said; “My fingers are long and beautiful, as, it has been well documented, are various other parts of my body”.
12) Once said; “I know more about ISIS than the generals do. Believe me.”
13) Once said; “My IQ is one of the highest…and you all know it! Please don’t feel so stupid or insecure; it’s not your fault”.

One thing The Donald does excel very well is make fabulous Poster Boys. He’s the Poster Boy for White Nationalism and the Poster Boy for Narcissistic Personality Disorder …though to be fair, you must add Liars & Misogynists Anonymous, as well.

We are witnessing the physical and mental deterioration of a human being right before our eyes. Looking through this Emperor’s New Clothes reveals his insecurity, his insanity and his Narcissistic need for more and more and more attention.
A man who wanted power at all cost ends up mentally deranged cause the stress of the job he wanted at all cost. King George III ruled over England & America at one time …and he ended up Mad!
Now, they’ll be writing stories about the Madness of King Donald!

The 4 year Reality Show is sliding away into Madness!
Will we see him taken away by men in white coats or maybe in handcuffs on Jan. 20th, 2021? …forget the Elections, it’s about the only way the Mad King Donald will ever leave office!
