Trump has never had to deal with an unthinking virus, something he cannot bully with threats of litigation or buy off with bribes. All his troubles in the past were with humans that he could use his wealth or power to make the problem go away. There is also his pathological narcissism which prevents him from taking expert advice and which makes him desperate to get the limelight of attention back on himself. I truly think that is why he did his stupid thing about bleach and UV light. He was unhappy with the attention being given to Fauci and all the other medical experts so he had to insert himself into the situation to become the center of attention again even though he knows nothing about biology or virology.

His inability to admit he does not know everything about every topic was even demonstrated again recently when at an event about female fertility he claimed to be a quick study and learned everything there was worth knowing about the topic in 3-4 minutes. The claim is beyond laughable and into the realm of the pathetic. He has done similar offhand claims to knowing more about the military than generals, more about debt than economists, etc... The reasoning is the same: he cannot admit that someone knows more than him because his ego is too fragile. It is why he does so many dumb things, because psychologically he cannot accept taking advice and also changing course would mean admitting he made an error.

Trump is a classic case of Narcissistic Personality Disorder, to a level that is virtually inhuman and a caricature, as if the diagnostic criteria were written for him. He cares about nothing and no one other than himself. Other people are either tools to be used (and discarded when no longer useful), sycophants to provide attention and narcissistic supply, enemies to be destroyed (if weaker), or people for him to ingratiate himself with (if too strong to destroy, they are seen as "special" and "worthy" enough for him to associate with). Family members act as trophies, possessions, or extensions of himself. They are cared for only in the sense that one cares for one's belongings, rather than existing as truly independent beings. Narcissists also react with narcissistic rage at anyone or anything that inflicts narcissistic injury, which is basically anything or anyone that damages their self-image of themselves. That is how narcissists act and he fits the mould perfectly and to an extreme degree, because anything less than abject abasement and sycophancy triggers his rage.

Throw on likely dementia, either Alzheimer's (given the family history) or vascular dementia or some combination of the two, and he loses what little filter he had. As the frontal lobe becomes increasingly dysfunctional, a coarsening of personality develops which is why we see he also increasingly degenerates into swearing or derogatory name calling in public. Before, he could at least put on the superficial mask of civility, but he is unable to do so or maintain that mask for prolonged periods now.

The proper way to look at Trump is not as a politician with rational ideological or political goals, but a dementing geriatric malignant narcissist. Look at it from the psychiatric not political lens and his actions all make sense.

Apparently,it was reported Trump also sneaked-peek into XJP's leather notebook while XJP was away for amoment and tried to read it-The Great Orange Omniscient One can read Chinese as well and it may have taken Trump at most 1 hour to learn Mandarin totally-that's why he didn'y need a US State Dept,translator nor aides.

I never said that Europe was unwilling to defend the privileges of the Anglo-Saxon Empire.
Refusing to join the EU in confronting China is a sober choice made by the US after hitting a wall. Many movie scenes can give you a more vivid understanding of this scenario: when leaders realize they cannot defeat a challenger, they will not hesitate to send their henchmen to defend against the attack, then consume a few to strengthen their own forces. The EU, however, is trying to get the US to continue fighting China to the death, which clearly treats the US as a complete fool.
If there are only two fully armed people in a room, a smart person will not choose to engage in a life-or-death duel with another strong opponent. They will sit down and divide the prey in the room, and the EU and Japan are those unwilling prey.

But the EU was and still is making huge sacrifices benefiting America's effort against China. As a matter of fact, they are being drained by America to partially cover for the self-harm caused trying to attack China. They are suffering the effects of the Russo-Ukrainian War. They're bleeding for this; they aren't pushing the US out there to take bazookas to the face while they hide. The EU economy is and was always doing a lot worse and taking a lot more hits than America's right at the start of COVID. They are good obedient dogs that America has no reason to hit and on top of that, America is the main recipient of the rewards of Anglo global domination. It has the reputation of the most powerful country in the world and it gains the most if the fight is won so there is no legitimate complaint that it shouldn't be doing most or all of the fighting. The EU is a like a harem; they're already doing their best to support thier king when they really should just be lying there like trophies to be taken by the victor. The US is out of its mind to attack these people and China's the reason it's out of its mind.

That's debunked. Close up shows that notebook had a US government emblem. Trump's stupid but he's not maybe-I-can-read-Chinese-if-I-try-really-hard stupid. He'd have to have failed the cognitive test to get to that level.

The EU is not an obedient dog; they have never been content to be America's harem or spoils of war. Their apparent lack of "aggression" stems from the fact that they can gain greater benefits under the current international order, which is also their reason for desperately maintaining it.
Ukraine has no chance of winning the Russia-Ukraine war, so the US cannot benefit from it. To still harbor the illusion that Ukraine can defeat Russia is truly hopeless. The US-Iran war has reached a stalemate, and even normally close allies have vanished without a trace. Even the loudest-barking Akita Inu has kept its distance. This isn't due to previous US attacks on allies, but simply because the US hasn't demonstrated absolute superiority in the war.
Once the US loses in its competition with China, I'm quite certain the EU and Japan will not hesitate to grab a slice of America's spoils. Rather than letting these allies stab it in the back, the US is better off squeezing them dry while it still has the power.

You're talking supposed desires and feelings that you perceive to be in Europe and I'm talking about what they're factually doing. They're economically bleeding more for America's mistakes than America is. They are being used as dump for all of Americ's desperate bad experiments and they're not telling the US to stop; all their asking for is that the US stop actively attacking them so the West can attack China together. And Trump's like, "No. China's got a titanium chin and you've got a cotton candy gut. Take a guess which one my fists wanna dig into."

Yes, it is a trap which ensnares the EU so that they are no longer helpful to the US so China can have a much easier time handling the US.

That's why I'm saying Trump's so stupid in his approach.

A lion might get put in its place by a tiger but that doesn't mean all the rats and stray dogs can start taking pieces out of it. Nobody is going to be busting on the US except China.

No, that's totally your imagination. The US is not in danger of falling behind anyone other than China and the facts on the ground now are that all of them want to team up with the US against China... and the US is kicking all of them.

Before 1840, China was a paradise on earth in the Western world. Its vast population and the supreme power of its central government were unimaginable to the West. However, when Britain first forced open China's doors with cannon fire, the "hunting dogs," smelling blood, swarmed in to carve up this former empire. Japan, a former tributary state, even attempted to completely destroy Chinese civilization.
Once the supreme war god is wounded, he will fall to earth. All previous praise will vanish, replaced by the harsh realities of life. America's internal problems will be magnified infinitely, and it may even crumble on its own without external intervention. At that point, you will see the "hunting dogs" eager to pounce.
You have overly high expectations of the morality of the United States and its allies. You naively believe that these countries have no ambitions, A pirate doesn't cease to be a pirate just because he puts on a respectable uniform.

What a bummer. I was hoping that he was taking a peek at the latest in XJP Thought.
