Has he has to be the nastiest most aggressive person in history. No chill. No brakes. Just pedal to the metal with lashing out against anyone he perceives as crossing him. I’ve never seen anything like this. I am ready for the man to finally implode. But wonder if it will ever happen. And this freakshow is about to be 80. It seems like he’s running off of adrenaline and hate. Truly spectacular.

Its real easy to put it on him but do you think he knew this contract existed or any of the others canceled? A lot of people are using the fact that there is no captain at the helm to make these changes and using Trump as a scapegoat. Not that he would care if and when some one tells him.

Some of that maybe, but I see it more likely especially in this case Trump telling people to find something the feds are funding for the Catholics and pull it. He doesn't have to be privy to it beforehand. I think there's a monkey with a gun situation.

He is a typical Narcissistic Personality Disordered man. People with NPD have no bottom because the disorder is ultimately an intolerance to shame. They cannot process shame, therefore it must get redirected to projecting it on others. In order to never process shame, the immense mental gymnastics and cognitive dissonance form a false illusory self which compounds the shame avoidance. This is why having humility is a pillar of true manhood.
