Can u tell me what is Donald Trump's biggest weakness right now ?

I believe that Donald Trumps biggest weakness is his pride. I think he thinks that he is invincible, and this is about to come to a deep hard fall. A manipulator can only manipulate his victim until the pain starts to set in. Then during the awakening period is when the victim says to themselves, hey. We are being duped. Trumps influence had no real affect on the Pennsylvania
election this week which is why Lamb won anyway. So as a result, Western Pennsylvania picked a Democrat instead of a Republican.
Enough said. What do you think is Trump's biggest weakness right now. ☺
Pride, or lack of humility would be right up there in my book, but I think lack of self reflection probably is a bigger problem.

The Donald, as a bragging, lying pussy grabber, who tells it like it is, seems to be a pretty sellable commodity, but it seems like he starts believing his own bullshit too much sometimes, and doesn't modify his product enough for different markets.

Lying, bullying and joking in a rally with a room full of red hat wearing people saluting him got him elected, and he seems moderately capable of giving a decent scripted speech at times and toning down his rhetoric a bit, but it seems like he's still struggling with modifying his persona to carry it into different arenas.

He's much more suited to being a dictator, and I think he knows it, but he's going to continue to struggle with foreign leaders, the press, and other branches of government until he can step back and realize that some customers not only need different approaches, and that they'll remember being swindled in the past.

@MistyCee I might've chosen yours, but I think self-reflection is too much to ask of him.

@MistyCee LACK OF HUMILITY. You have perhaps the best answer so far here. ☺
@Graylight yeah, I know, maybe just a bit more self awareness would have been a better way to put it.
I would say his biggest weakness is his penchant for 'entertaining' his base. He needs to tone down the 'performing' a bit, and be a little more serious. I support Trump and think he is astronomically better than Obama, but I'm not deaf and blind. His biggest problem is a couple of generations of people who tried to be so open minded their brains have fallen out, and the end result is unprecedented intolerance and close mindedness. Trumpophobia or Trump derangement syndrome has driven people insane in huge numbers, and it isn't 'just' or fair. The anti Trump madness is a serious miscarriage of justice, and malfeasance prevails among the more active haters in media, politics, academia, and entertainment.
As I have said many times, the Trump Derangement victims are like the passengers of an airliner who decide to kill the pilots and flight crew at 35,000 feet because they didn't like the in flight movie.

@Zonuss That's how you read that? 😂
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@eli1601 Well he did get the part wrong about Trump being better than Obama.
Trump just deregulated the system and nothing more.

I get your point, but I wouldn't characterize his weakness as pride, because someone who is proud understands the impacts of his actions and believes that his actions are good, giving him a source of pride. This man's actions stem from his severe mental illness of malignant narcissism that causes him to truly believe that he is the center of the universe and invincible. And it will be his downfall, because he cares for no one and nothing but himself. All trump, all the time.

@windinhishair I dont know if the man is mentally illed. But he definitely has an issue with his sense of self and he seems to be very self centered. ☺

@Zonuss To the lasting detriment of both himself and the nation.

His transparency and his inability to keep his mouth shut. Both will prove to be his undoing.

I think it secretly hurts his pride to be considered a failure. thats why he gives HIMSELF credit like a delusional attention seeking child. but when he walks away from all this, i dont think he'll take too kindly as being the WORST president EVER on record.
VioletDreams · 36-40, F
@MistyCee i'm sorry but no human being can handle the weight of the nation's hate towards them. He can try to eliminate people from office for control, but he still needs to contend with an angry nation.
@VioletDreams He's better than most at handling negative attention, and he's riding his horde of followers and Fox junkies for all they're worth in terms of satisfying his need for positive attention to balance all the hate.

Its scary, though, to watch him run through cabinet members and see him assert himself internationally. His domestic "enemies" like the NFL, the media, Blue States, the LBGTQ community, higher education and minorities will likely endure the chaos he thrives on and hope for better times under a different President, but damaged relations with allies, broken treaties, and the like are harder to recover from, not to mention the problem that he's still sitting on a nuclear football.

Sad to say, but in some ways, letting him play at creating culture wars, building walls, and fighting against the courts and the Blue States might be better than sending him off to Korea and having to rely on Putin for advice and assistance. Abusing Canada and Mexico's not good, either, but its not as likely to cause as many long term problems as he can overseas.
VioletDreams · 36-40, F
@MistyCee yea its not like he ever had the best reputation, this negative attention could just be second nature for him. I just dont understand how its working out for him. We all thought this behaviour wouldnt fly and someone or SOMETHING would have forced him to tone it down. But its been more disheartening for me to see him running around like a wild child. We're all past his megalomaniac persona. Now we just sit and watch and just die a little. Yea its gonna be hard for the next person to correct everything hes changed, but i think its gonna be harder for me to forget how America let this happen. How will i trust America ever again?!
RedFlower · F
he is resistant to advice from people who know better
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@RedFlower Yes. He shuns common sense and logic quite often. It seems to not matter to him.
Graylight · 51-55, F
@RedFlower Wow, that's a diplomatic way to put it.
Graylight · 51-55, F
Pride, good. I'd say his mouth. He sends unable to grasp the fact that you can't just let epithets, less, exaggerations and deals fail out of your mouth like it's a shut-door board meeting.

The amount of money spent on an election for a seat that will vanish in a few months due to redistrciting is insane.

An incompetent adulterer whose staff turns over every few months and hasn't filed 120 key posts? No idea!
eli1601 · 70-79, M
Can't think of one
Graylight · 51-55, F
@eli1601 His supporters?
RodionRomanovitch · 56-60, M
@Graylight Especially clowns like this one.

@MarineBob Great answer. He is very much a self conscious man who is obsessed with what people think of him. Hmmmmm. ☺

@tenente His weakness is women. I would totally agree with that idea because it is very true. ☺
