Trump is not stable — and that should be a huge news story

Trump is not stable — and that should be a huge news story: If over the weekend you saw a rambling madman give a frighteningly incoherent, sweaty, two-hour shoutfest of a speech at a right-wing summit, then you viewed a president coming unglued on national television in a way that has probably never been seen before in United States history. 

I don't care if you identify as liberal, conservative, or something in between. Cheeto Stalin is a hateful, immature, raving lunatic who envies the way Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un are able to subjugate the citizens of their countries. He wishes he could do the same. He's an egomaniac who takes to Twitter to publish inane rants, primarily about how persecuted he is. But above and beyond all that, he is an undignified embarrassment of a "leader." How could anybody want that representing their country?

I was no fan of Ronald Reagan, and it came as no surprise when I learned that Reagan was showing signs of dementia during his second term and Bush I was running the show. In spite of not liking Reagan's politics, I give credit where credit is due. He always presented as a gentleman and a mature adult. Lord Dampnut behaves like a petulant adolescent, and nothing is ever his fault. Just imagine the shit show if his Twitter were taken away.
