    Trump supporter Nick Adams posted the picture—taken at Mar-a-Lago—with the caption, "President Trump is looking better than ever before!! He's getting in shape for 2024 and the liberals are freaking out!!"

    But Trump "looking better" wasn't what casual observers saw.


    As one commenter wrote, "Holy crap. Is he ill? How did he not age at all during his presidency but looks 15 years older in the 2 months since he left office?"

    Two things:

    1) Rawstory.com is kind of the enquirer of the internet. Sensationalized to get the most clicks.
    2) That is a just picture of Trump without makeup. You're not used to seeing him without all of the orange cake makeup plastered all over his ugly mug.

    Trump is a sociopath

    A sociopath is a term used to describe someone who has antisocial personality disorder (ASPD). People with ASPD can’t understand others’ feelings. They’ll often break rules or make impulsive decisions without feeling guilty for the harm they cause.

    People with ASPD may also use “mind games” to control friends, family members, co-workers, and even strangers. They may also be perceived as charismatic or charming.

    Trump is a sad lonely child with a huge hole in his heart he'll never get filled.

    No, just a clinical sociopath perceived as charismatic and charming by people too damn dense to know the difference.

    Trump’s children already are chips off the old block, without compassion or scruples. Ivanka tries to sound compassionate but fails miserably. A softer version of her father, she pushes her way into conversations where she’s not wanted, just like her father forcing himself into New York’s elite circles. Videos of her trying to interact with foreign leaders are painful to watch, especially one when she tries to get between French Prime Minister Emmanuel Macron and IMF Chair Christine Lagarde. Her father never got over being an outsider, while Ivanka seems surprised by her new outsider status.

    Coming next: What’s ahead? Experts tell us how Trump can be expected to act in the coming critical months of the presidential election and beyond, based on Mary Trump’s ‘Too Much and Never Enough’.

    Read Part 1 and Part 2 of our series.





    Mary Trump lets us see the embattled Trump family attitude. They think only of winning or losing. That kind of thinking made Trump’s presidency such a disaster for us all. All presidents make decisions, but when thinking rejects subtlety and complexity, it’s not thinking at all; it’s reacting. And options are limited. Trump can yell at a reporter, walk out of a meeting, or accuse an interviewer of lying. And he only understands force, never negotiation. It was not America First that led Trump to abandon all our treaties—it was that he fears complexity, having never learned to think properly.

    I thought your description in your book about how a neurological learning disorder in Donald Trump developed into a psychological problem was insightful. Dr. Trump goes into this as well. How do you think the shame of not being confident enough to take his own SAT’s has affected his sense of self and his development?

    I had no knowledge that Trump asked a friend to take his SAT’s. But it fits. Shame is involved, prompting his need to cover up for his inadequacies. I didn’t use the term “compensatory grandiosity” in my book, but clearly that’s what he displays regularly. He has the “best words,” the “best knowledge,” and he appoints the “best people.” Again, binary thinking—winning or losing—allows him only two options. Just witness the vicissitudes of his interactions with Dr. Anthony Fauci. Your question about his sense of self is extremely important—because even as he’s arguably the most powerful man in the world, he remains thin-skinned, easily wounded, and needs to puff himself up.

    I'd like to say the entire dysfunctional lot is sidelined and irrelevant but the truth is they own the entire GOP now. What people with their lack of morals and decency do with that kind of power is hard to say. They may fade into the past but then again, they may use the power to tear this country to pieces. They should be watched very carefully.
