发帖数: 95 | 1 Something is seriously wrong with Donald Trump: Let's stop kidding ourselves
about that
Whether it was genuine madness or all an act, Donald Trump's CPAC creepshow
was evidence of profound crisis
If you’ve only watched the clips and highlights from Donald Trump’s CPAC
speech last Saturday, you’re not getting the full picture of the explosive
horror show that is the worsening status of the president’s mental health.
For reasons that defy comprehension, I decided to watch the whole thing live
. At the outset, I tweeted that given the Michael Cohen testimony in the
immediate rear-view mirror, Trump’s CPAC speech was going to be “next
level crazy.” In hindsight, I feel like I low-balled it.
Before we continue, I’d like to emphasize that I’m not a mental health
professional, nor am I an expert in the pharmacological effects of cognitive
enhancers like Adderall or Provigil to make a judgment call on the
specifics of what’s wrong with the president. However, I can say with
confidence that something’s extraordinarily wrong with him, and it’s only
getting more dangerous for the nation and by extension the world as time
advances.
At CPAC, Trump ricocheted from his prepared teleprompter remarks into what
can only be described as a herky-jerky, stream-of-conscious creepshow -- a
Willy Wonka ride into the dark, twisted world of Trump’s increasingly
haunted and scattered brain. There was sweaty red-faced performance art;
American flag leg-humping; bizarre and often shouty anecdotes leading
nowhere; insults and obscenities directed at his enemies, both real and
imagined; mean-spirited attempts at jokes; unabridged fear-mongering about
infanticide and murderous immigrants; bug-eyed facial contortions more
terrifying than the Momo Challenge; and other kneejerk outbursts that defy
description. |
