The more I watch that clip from the debate with Trump talking about eating the pets and Kamala’s side by side reaction, I’m wondering if you don’t just make that clip an ad and run it 24/7 in swing states for the next six weeks. Largest ad buy in political history.
 
I'll be honest and say I was not familiar with Linda Ronstadt prior to her being featured in episode 3 of The Last of Us TV series, possibly the greatest TV episode of all time, and this just continues her awesomeness that I'm learning about:

Two thoughts on the opening statements/answers.

1. In St. Donald of Mar-a-Lago's first statement the only thing he said that I believe was not a lie what when he said he had not read the "Project 2025" plan.

2. This was the opening statement that all the talking heads characterized as VP Harris stumbling out of the gate?

No one has prettier eyes than Linda Ronstadt.

Holy shit. Of all of the crazy shit that we see these days, this might be among the craziest. This dude needs to be institutionalized to protect both himself and others. He is deeply unwell.
 
Nobody with the pathological explosive anger issues that people like Trump and Miller have should be anywhere near the levers of government. What an unbelievable embarrassment for the Republican party.

No one approaches my hatred for DonOld Trump, but second place would go to Stephen Miller.

Stephen Miller is sui generis.

I mean, in a way, you've got to give him credit: he has managed to craft his own unique style that lets him stand out from the rest of the braying GOP. Nobody is an asshole quite the way he is.

I can always recognize Stephen Miller. Give me an audio tape with the voice masked and no indication of who is speaking -- no problem. Most psychopaths are able to hide their animosity toward everyone, which is why they can be effective serial killers. Stephen Miller doesn't even try.

Trump and Miller are both what I call "primary psychopaths". While Trumps orbit draws psychopaths like flies, all the others in Trump's orbit are "secondary psychopaths". These are folks whose otherwise natural psychopathic tendencies are more or less kept in check by the social mores and norms surrounding them in everyday civil life. Unlike a primary psychopath the secondary psychopaths lack the courage and the constitution to act on their psychopathic tendencies on their own. As such they most often pass among us unnoticed.

However, in cases where a primary psychopath rises to a position of power, the secondaries miraculously appear out of the woodwork, because they have been granted a permission structure by someone powerful to act on their natural tendencies. I think of the relationship between them like as a giant sun resistant mushroom providing an umbrella of shade which allows all the garden variety mushrooms to sprout under.

True primary psychopaths are, thankfully, vanishingly rare. Secondary psychopaths are a dime a dozen.

Trump and Miller are the only two that spring readily to mind that fit the primary psychopath profile.
