All of our problems with Donald Trump are at root theological

 

Trump turned 6-years old when his pastor first published this in 1952

President Norman Vincent Peale everybody

Ilhan Omar channeling Norman Vincent Peale just like Trump

The culturally illiterate don't recognize that he's President Norman Vincent Peale

Yesterday showed us that Trump is in fact 25th Amendment material

He didn't remember he let the drug dealers out of prison by just recently signing the criminal justice reform bill when he was riffing on executing them in the Rose Garden yesterday.

That means even if he read what was in the border deal, it didn't penetrate, didn't register, and didn't matter to him. Nothing was going to get in the way of signing the bill.

This denial of reality is religious fanaticism level stuff, courtesy of Norman Vincent Peale but grown especially virulent in this unique DNA combination known as Donald Trump.

What he needs is deprogramming, but the best thing we can do is depend on the sturdiness of our institutions, the separation of powers and the ensuing gridlock to sequester him until the voters do the intervention in 2020.  This is the gift of the founders and we should embrace it and thank them for it.

Unfortunately, expect Democrats to have no mercy, but to press their advantage against crazy King Ludwig. If Republicans know what's good for them, they'll refrain from any more big compromises, but they should work with Democrats to give Trump some nice shiny objects to stroke his vanity in the meantime and keep him distracted.  

Even President Norman Vincent Peale says you can do it, fired journalists!

One term president bans bump stocks, pulls out of Syria, gets ready to empty the prisons, and caves on the wall

I'm soooooooo sick of winning, President Norman Vincent Peale.
