Clearly, Trump's claim that he was wiretapped is a load. But it's difficult to know how much it is motivated by a desire to distract people from the debacle of his (and many of his cabinet members') ties to Russia and how much is just the ravings of silly lunatic.
Agi Tater -- Thanks for the Intercept link. Given Trump's lack of predictability and forethought, I suspect that he was just raving for attention. Knowing that the leader of a superpower is that volatile is disconcerting.
DeleteNow I can't remember the source but I read an article recently about how his staff struggles with his volatile temperament; and that when something in the news cycle upsets him, he'll fire something crazy off on Twitter. Once that craziness (i.e. Obama wiretapped his unhinged ravings from Trump Tower ... ) becomes the top story in the news cycle he feels much better. Classic narcissism.
DeleteThe president of this country needs mental health treatment ... and adult supervision 24/7. And to think he has the nuclear launch codes ...
Agi Tater -- The fact that such an unstable and self-absorbed man has nuclear launch codes, immense political power, and access to global intelligence will never cease to be horrifying.
