Is Trump delusional?

https://news.yahoo.com/trump-telling-people-thinks-hell-135336887.html

Trump thinks he will be reinstated as POTUS is August
Why can't he just accept that he lost the election?
He’s definitely delusional, but what’s scary is that he has followers who still somehow believe he’s president.
@bijouxbroussard Yet if something they don't like happens they blame Biden.
But I thought tr*mp was still president?
Also if tr*mp is still president he can't run again.

Cognitive dissonance.
@bijouxbroussard Sad isn't it, that so many people can't accept reality?
All the money in the world can’t buy sanity. He is living proof.
@CereBellum Well, he doesn't pay his bills, so who knows?

Trump has been severely mentally ill for a long time, with malignant narcissism, but his Cult believes this is a feature rather than a flaw. Trump will work tirelessly on his upcoming Adoration/Grievance Tour to incite his Cult to violence on his behalf. Just as he was gleeful at the violence in his name at the January 6 insurrection, he is counting on his Cult killing for him and installing him as Emperor/King, which will please Trump endlessly.

@windinhishair if that's true his followers are going to come smack into reality and may end up very badly for them ,but what does He care? He can claim innocence and the loonies will back him up.
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@SW-User That's just it. Trump doesn't care about anyone other than himself. If thousands of his followers are killed in another insurrection, he would only feel bad that it didn't work, not that they died.

Trump IS delusional but sadly his party by and large shares the delusion or chooses sto go along with it.
MrBrownstone · 46-50, M
Why couldn’t liberals accept they lost 2016 election?
@MrBrownstone He was impeached twice for breaking the law, and should have been impeached a couple other times also.
PrincessAwesome · 22-25, F
@MrBrownstone This is projection. There was no effort to overturn the 2016 election.
@PrincessAwesome 😂 Ah revisionist history strikes again.

Even worse, pro-Trump electors have faced heretofore unseen intimidation by Clinton’s supporters, some of whom placed those electors’ personal details online. The lucky ones have coped only with hostile e-mails, letters, and phone calls — often in the thousands.

‐It is total harassment,” said Robert Graham, an Arizona elector and state GOP chairman. As the Arizona Republic reported on November 18, Graham added: “It started about a week ago. Now? ‘Bam!’ It’s hardcore.”

An elector told the Arizona Republic that he has received hundreds of phone calls in ‘an outright political maneuver.’

Arizona’s Sharon Geise said that she has received some 50,000 e-mails since the election, pushing her to ditch Trump. “They just keep coming and coming,” she told the New York Post. “They’re overpowering my iPad.”

‐Others have endured far uglier bullying.

Bruce Ash, an elector and one of Arizona’s three Republican National Committee members, told the Republic that he has received hundreds of phone calls in “an outright political maneuver.” Ash said, “They demonize me, they call me a homophobic, an isolationist, a bigot, a misogynist, and an anti-Semite, which is interesting because I’m Jewish.”

Texas elector Rex Teter received a letter that read, “May your tombstone and life be a laughing fallacy if you let this evil in the gate.”

“I have been inundated with death threats, death wishes, generally angry messages trying to get me to change my vote to Hillary Clinton or another person,” Michigan GOP elector Michael Banerian told CNN. “I’ve had people talk about putting a bullet in the back of my mouth. I’ve had death wishes or people just saying, ‘I hope you die.’ Or, ‘Do society a favor, throw yourself in front of a bus.’ . . . These people not only called for the burning of myself, but my family.’”

“In Pennsylvania,” according to today’s edition of the Telegraph, “the situation has become so serious that some 20 electors have reportedly been assigned plainclothes state police troopers for protection.” One of them, Ash Khare, is an Indian immigrant and longtime Republican. He confirms being guarded by state law enforcement and said that he has received “nasty” phone calls as late as 1:00 a.m.

Radical cineaste Michael Moore wants enraged Democrats and other election deniers to flood Washington next January 20 and “disrupt the Inauguration.” This suggests that the last six weeks of leftist fury were just the beginning.

American liberals never will accept that Donald J. Trump won the November 8 election fair and square. All they are saying is they won’t give Trump a chance.
He was born delusional!
@TryingtoLava And has gotten worse over time. How you doing this morning Lava?
@independentone sleepy :) sun burned!

Losers never can accept the truth about their failings.

Peapod · 61-69, F
The man is a malignant narcissist that truly lives a delusional world. It doesn't help that he has a following that is just as delusional.
Peapod · 61-69, F
@sunsporter1649 I sure did and glad I voted for him, along with a majority in this country.
sunsporter1649 · 70-79, M
@Peapod P.T.Barnum would be so proud of you
Spotpot · 41-45, M
@sunsporter1649 He is far better than the infantile bully Trump.
I doubt Trump is actually delusional.

My take is that he is capable of seeing reality but doesnt think he needs to acknowledge it when he speaks.
EuphoricTurtle · 41-45, M
Oh no!
Will he have time to finish his new Healthcare plan by then? 😆
@EuphoricTurtle Yes, he is just putting the finishing touches on it now, It will be fantastic, the best health care bill ever written. Should be released in 2 weeks.
AbbySvenz · F
And infrastructure. Don’t forget about that, too
luckranger71 · 51-55, M
@AbbySvenz it’s always infrastructure week. He built half a wall!
OggggO · 36-40, M
I don't think he actually believes that, he just wants to keep the grift going as long as he can.
Mr. Pillow said he'd be reinstated in Aug. so Trump says he believes but Trump knows if his gullible base believes they will give him more money. He got them to give him around 1/4 billion dollars after he [b]lost[/b] the election, using conspiracies about being reinstated. The great thing for Trump is there doesn't have to be any proof at all. Just some nutjob like Mr. Pillow spewing verbal diarrhea. Mr. Pillow is getting sued 1.3 billion for his lies.
ididntknow · 51-55, M
@Pitchblue They probably couldn’t take the heat, the democrats have nasty people, in high places
@ididntknow Great excuse, it's Fake News even when the Rightwing News Outlets report on it. The Democrats were just way to strong for them.
ididntknow · 51-55, M
@Pitchblue Do you like the democrats and what they stand for ?
SW-User
People bring up that Democrats couldn't accept election results in 2016, but compared to this, this is so much worse. There's a difference between some people not accepting an election result and the serious belief that a former president will be reinstated in a months time.
SW-User
@ididntknow There’s no voter fraud. There’s your answer. Sulk all you want, audits or predictions aren’t going to change anything.
ididntknow · 51-55, M
@SW-User lefties sulk

@ididntknow Well then I guess you’re a lefty now.
Medically yes he suffers from delusions.

{@indepentone] why are we talking about this has been . he now is a non entertee in the american political arena . only person he is fooling his himself and his core obdience base who dote on his every word

@sunsporter1649 a few thousand here, a few thousand there, who cares, attempt an insurrection, rt?

@sunsporter1649 waste of time interacting with you - as usual

He is proof that crazies are all around me. I appreciate the epiphany of knowing that..
ididntknow · 51-55, M
If Biden won fairly and honestly, then why are the democrats and rinos, working so hard to stop the audits? Or will you just deny that, court case after court case, it’s as if the democrats are desperate, also, why did Hillary Clinton take over 70 lawyers to Arizona to fight to stop the audits, if I’d won something fairly and squarely, I’d welcome any audits or investigations, knowing that I’d won fairly, but the behaviour of the left, isn’t pointing to that, they are behaving like there is something to hide, I wonder what ?
ididntknow · 51-55, M
@independentone I can’t wait for Biden and pelosi to be impeached
@ididntknow He wasn't removed from office, but he was impeached TWICE.
I know you don't like it, but that is a fact, DEAL WITH IT
QuixoticSoul · 41-45, M
@ididntknow [quote] how much did the Russian collusion bullshit cost[/quote]
We made a hefty profit on that investigation - via seizing Manafort’s ill gotten loot. Fantastic ROI, actually.
Rolexeo · 26-30, M
You guys keep mocking Trump but more than a few times he ended up being proven right months later and y'all just ignore it
Rolexeo · 26-30, M
@tindrummer Nah, scientists are saying now it was likely from a lab. It's not deflection, he asked

@Rolexeo Thanks so much for this perfect example of "delusional!!!"
ravenhill · M
no not at all, he is a legend.
tindrummer · M
@ravenhill history will judge him as a legendary disaster of a president
Spotpot · 41-45, M
Trump has been a deluded infantile bully a long time now Biden has far better approval ratings there is a clear diffrence.
@ididntknow I do know Biden isn't popular with people like you and the other Q nuts, but among the general population, he has much higher numbers that Trump ever achieved.
Sorry if the actual facts don't agree with whatever your agenda is, but Biden is President of the United States - deal with it
ididntknow · 51-55, M
@Spotpot No he hasn’t
ididntknow · 51-55, M
@independentone I don’t know where you get this bull shit, it’s simply not true
Freeranger · M
There's a difference between [i]that[/i] and the rest of the liberal world who engineered the whole travesty at the voting box. No lucid American was unaware and, they will be coming in spades as the mid-terms approach.

However

We have Joseppi Biden.....who continually smiles outta the other side of his wide mouth while shovin' the expenses up our arse.

In finality, which do you choose to consider, a non-politician who owed no favors to ANYONE in Washington and who scared every 'effin career cum suckin' politician because he wanted to put the AMERICAN PEOPLE first,

or

The total epitome of one who never accomplished anything in his 47 years in the Beltway, and got caught selling access while cleaning up after his blow inhalin' loser son.

Holy shit....the odor.
This seems to echo the point I previously tried to make about Trump's "delusions"

[quote]
I don't think Trump believes he'll be reinstated in August. I don't think Trump really believes anything, not in the way that most people hold beliefs at least. He has a purely instrumentalized view of the world: "Beliefs" aren't sincerely held, but just another tool to manipulate others. He never asks himself "is this true?" so much as "what will it get me to say this?" And when it comes to this particular conspiracy theory, the answer may sadly be "quite a lot."

windinhishair · 61-69, M
@MistyCee This resonates as true. It explains his behavioral patterns and lack of empathy and remorse. Trump essentially has no soul.
Viper · M
I think he's sane, but he's surrounded himself with "Yes" men so long that people are making stuff up, so they can go to him and say "Yes there is a way", in an attempt to get something from him, weather that be money, power, attention, fame, or something else.

So he's hearing bad information that he wants to be true, and is mistakenly believing it.


Also, I'd like to point out... the article says he said it, it didn't say he believes it. He likes saying a lot of things just to push people buttons. Not nessarily because he believes them, but to get a reaction, and this is a reaction, so if that was his goal, it was successful.
PhilDeep · 51-55, M
I'm wondering how far he'd be from being sectioned under the mental health act by now in the UK.

@softspokenman
But rudy is a sexy bi*tch!
Haven't you noticed that Trump gets everyone around him in trouble. Look at Rudy and what he's done for Trump. Trump will grab any crazy comment, Like He will be reinstated, then repeat that and hope the people around him will make it happen. BUT no matter what happens he believes he is never to blame. Get people to incite an insurrection but then just go watch it on TV. I wasn't there I didn't do anything. Like Cohen said he suggests things so he can't be charged criminally.
@ididntknow You got nothing right. The fall back position to CNN, MSNBC is so vacant. You don't have any information at all, you don't even have your own opinions.
ididntknow · 51-55, M
@Pitchblue you say Trump admin, most corrupt in history, prove it, sided with Russia, prove it, incited insurrection, prove it,

ronisme1 · 61-69, M
I cant believe this fight continues. If most people will ignore trump, he will go away in the news. In the last month he claimed his new social page was being viewed millions of times a month, more than twitter and just last week he closed it because no one was viewing it. In a matter of 2 weeks it dropped from millions to thousands. Who cares. Biden is not perfect. Hilary is a crook. I'm a Democrat. And who cares that I am, I'm only one person. Let's concentrate on china and climate change please and get on with our lives
Amberrose · 36-40, F
@ronisme1 he deleted any evidence of his blog because next to no one was reading it

@Amberrose Never happened, Fake News. That's the beauty of having an R in front of your name.
Baremine · 70-79, C
Because he didn't. It was a very corrupt election.
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@Baremine No they are not. Provide your "evidence". And the election was not rigged. You really should see someone for your detachment with reality. Trump lost. And it wasn't close. Biden won by more than Trump did in 2016, and Trump called that a landslide.
@windinhishair And Trump lost the popular vote in 2016 by over 3 million votes.
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@independentone That's why Biden's win was even more of a landslide in 2020 than was Trump's Electoral College win in 2016. Americans voted against Trump both times by a solid majority.
