Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

He's certainly old enough to be significantly impacted by mental decline. Some have it happen much earlier than others.
He has been insane his entire life. He just is at a point now where it gets to unfold much more freely than it ever has, because he has been crowned de facto king of everything.
He's also a traitor.
Welcome to 10 years ago...
No shit
Insane? Or just an idiot?
Both and more. He's an insane, idiotic, egotistical, megalomaniacal, bitter, bigotted, petulant narcissist. All of that
They aren’t mutually exclusive.
By insane I think you meant to say perfectly stable genius
Might be? LOL.
Im going with "Public face, figurehead, and attention grabber of the actual Cabal that controls the country"
Might? Might??
Malignant narcissist with strong sociopathic tendencies. This has literally been known for years.
Might?? Might?? I believe a number of healthcare professionals have chimed in on his mental state.
It only took them a decade, minimum, to figure it out, huh? Truly, the greatest minds amongst men.
He's not insane. He's an idiot.
He can be both
Headlines like this, man. On one hand, good, I always like to see people thinking clearly and basing their thoughts on, you know, observations of the world.
On the other hand, WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE? It took until April 2025 for them to fear that he’s not acting rationally but rather on ideology? And these are people who see themselves as fit to manage other people’s money!
if there's one thing that keeps getting proven again and again, it's that business majors are generally quite dumb. They can't understand anything unless you can put it in terms of money, so this really is the first time they're realizing there's a problem.

At my university, they were by far the dumbest, even worse than the undergrad sociology students (the grad-level sociologists were much less of a joke).
Even if you put it in terms of money, they'll often remain willfully ignorant if the truth hurts their egos. Somewhere deep down, there's a terrifying suspicion that they're frauds who produce nothing of value.
A certain group of people care about literally nothing other than Line Go Up.
Line did not go up, therefore they want blood.
Yeah, that’s the unfortunate truth. He can destroy lives, destroy our standing in the world, destroy our natural resources and climate, and betray to his heart’s content. But once he starts messing with the slope of rich people’s lines, that’s when I can see his own side get ready to remove him from office.
Based on the recently circulated video of him bragging about how much money his inner circle made by buying the dip before he announced the tarrif pause, it seems not all rich people were left in the dark.
I'm not informed enough on the finer points of market manipulation law, but it certainly quacks like a duck.
Well, considering I’ve read complaints for years about how it’s legal for Congress to insider trade, and how we’ve all seen Trump get away with dozens of existing financial felony convictions plus having nuclear secrets laying around in the shitter, in very much doubt anything will happen regardless of how criminal it was.
But if it ends with more sycophants in his orbit behind bars, then I guess that’s still a positive.
It's not legal for congress to insider trade any more than it's legal for you to speed.
Just because a lot of people do it and it's not enforced enough doesn't make it legal.
Since 2015 people have been saying it. The best people like psychologists and his cousin like Mary and anyone else who actually spent time with him and survivors of abuse by similar personas and the survivors of his actual rapes and sexual violence. Many people, the best people, everyone was talking about it.
The worst is yet to come case however low it gets, this little fuck will dig to go lower. Like a home invasion where he fucks your wife, head fucks your daughter, sodomizes your son, kills your dog, eats your cat, shits in fridge, etc. Things will keep getting worse cause he has zero self awareness.
Might be ? He is.
Fund managers worry Trump "might" be insane
Fixed the title
Depends on your perspective, I guess. If his objective was to manipulate the market more than at any other time in history while simultaneously destroying three decades of progress between two of the largest countries, and one of the largest federation of countries in the entire world then I would say he's been outrageously successful.
If you mean anything else, then no. He hasn't been. But I can't wait for the MAGA crew to get in here to tell me how tariffs are actually good and how they strengthen an industry which no longer exists in the country.
He was born insane. That's why he is a psychopathic con man criminal fascist.
Other financial experts, including JP Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Diamond, have similarly assessed that Trump’s plan has pushed the U.S. to the brink of a recession.
They got his surname wrong. It's Dimon.
It's not so much that he's insane as it is that he knows so very, very little that he's incapable of telling good advice from bad advice. He sees all advice as being of equal value, so he bases his decisions on how much the other person likes him.
Example: All the tariff bullshit seems to have come from a single source, Peter Navarro. Whose main source for tariff effectiveness is a guy named "Ron Vara", an anagram of "Navarro".
If Trump knew the first thing about, well, anything, he'd reject Navarro out of hand. He doesn't.
Unfortunately Trump isn't alone in that regard - quite a lot of people reach adulthood lacking critical thinking and the ability to actually discern what is or isn't a reliable and useful source of information. Add to that the propaganda machine of media empires like Murdoch's and it's no wonder people buy Trump's inane ramblings.
