I've known people like Trump; he reminds me of my brother.

Narcissism, disagreeableness, grandiosity ... how do you know that Donald Trump's mind is like this?

How do you even know that he even has a mind in the first place?

:lol:

Demonizing the candidate. The Liberal Democrat "progressives" pulled that sh*t on Barry Goldwater in 1963.

I was warned that if I voted for Goldwater the U.S. would be involved in a ten year long land war in Asia. I voted for Goldwater and sure enough......

Demonizing? Hardly when it's basic psychology... and when his highlight on Twitter is favouriting a person talking about his small penis... wtf.

I'm from across the pond and all, but Trump is clearly unfit to be President. He has all the grace and tact and maturity of a 13 year old Youtube commenter going on and on about how hard he is and all the things he's done to your mother just because you said you didn't think Suicide Squad was up to scratch.

Unless, of course, it's all part of the plan...

There is a theory and a purported prescription for amphetamines that he had. In which case he is indeed not classically insane, but induced... dopamine agonists increase the probability of psychotic episodes and paranoia ramps up steadily, so it would fit in with his conspiracies and walls (all schizophrenics wanted a wall between them and society at some point)... not to mention recklessness with money (resulting in bankruptcies), as impulse control is impaired.
