Insightful article from Paul Krugman:

"We’ve also destroyed our moral credibility: Trump may have TACOed at the last minute, but he threatened to commit gigantic war crimes — and for all practical purposes our political and civil institutions gave him permission to do so.”

Krugman is well aware that Trump is a #narcissist and has learned nothing. Brilliant comment on his article, LOL:

"Trump managed to be both Hitler and Chamberlain in the same negotiation."

Yes, this is not good. I found this when I researched my book. (See bio) For example, Hitler believed the German people had failed him and he wanted the nation to be destroyed with him. Trump will try to take the US down, as Jim says, because he's a #narcissist.

"Trump is exhibiting the deepest, most destructive phase of narcissistic collapse—rupture—where the subject desperately tries to repair his self-image by destroying the world around him."

💯 Trump asked repeatedly in his first term about using nukes, and now he's also desperate. There is nothing a #narcissist will not do; there is no bottom.

Eight million people showed up at last weekend’s #NoKings protests.
POTUS Donald Trump’s response? Release footage of a skyscraper bearing his name, a golden statue of himself, and a throne room with paid parking — and call it a “presidential library.”
