you could write affluenza into the DSM if it makes you feel better but I really gotta question your motives beyond dumping every bad thing you don't like at the feet of people with brain disorders to help save the image of spoiled dipshits

Oh I hate the spoiled dipshits too, I'm just saying a lot of Americans view being a spoiled dipshit as a goal because they're monsters. Personal anecdote and all but I've had a lot of success undermining support among the conservatives I haven't cut out of my life by regularly attacking him as mentally ill and mocking him for it. Portraying him as mentally ill (and therefore weak) cuts into the 'masculine' cult of personality that his base tries to cultivate.

His brain is especially apt at stopping or slowing the spread of fire through the use of chemical reactions that reduce the flammability of fuel or impede their combustion?

I can't remember if it was the Splinter piece about the right wing grift machine creating Trump and loving us over or a David Roth piece but it talked about how the only reason Trump used to sound more coherent is he wasn't spending every waking second watching reactionary drivel so the stuff he was regurgitating had some connection to objective reality.

It's true. His base sees him as a big smart self made business man who doesn't take any poo poo, tells it like it is and is outside the system when he is 100% a product of the system who laughs at all of them. He hates them all beyond the adoration they give him and would NEVER be friends with 90% of them. Also, a disturbingly large percentage of people consider wealth to be a validation of ones character, including a genuinely creepy percentage of folks who consider themselves followers of Christ's teachings (Prosperity Gospel and all that). That is, unless you're an artist, an athlete, a musician or an actor because that's not real work.

They watch movies like Wall Street and Glen Gary Glen Ross and think that Michael Douglas and Alec Baldwin are the heroes. Or that Starship Troopers and Robocop are endorsements of fascism, hard police presence and celebrating the military.

"Real Work" is being born rich, loving people over and treating everyone lesser than like assholes because "winners and losers" are "how we keep score, Bubby"

Except in this case, Trump would be Kevin Spacey/Williamson and Pacino would be a competent Republican willing to gently caress with him and take him down.

Note that Trump has been calling ANTIFA "terrorists" now

In other words, the Police shoved a 75-year old man to the ground, lied about it and said he "tripped", then video came out exposing the coverup

Trump's response is to literally call the old man a terrorist

If trump had an ounce of brains I'd say calling antifa "terrorists" is a deliberate attempt to open the door to apprehending leftists as terrorists without requiring habeas corpus, ie the classic "muslim terrorist" routine.

Having said that, what I described will be the net effect, but trump is too god drat stupid to understand how it came to be

idk what would lead you to believe Trump doesn't understand the gross exercise of raw power. If the President calls someone a terrorist and directs his staff to treat them accordingly, they're a terrorist and functionally outlawed. He isn't gonna get, like, the legal convolutions that engineered that situation or read all the way through whatever secret FISA forms need to be filled out to make it all seem very civilized and proper and he also thinks anything else the President says is automatically immediately law but in this regard how the Presidency works really is as simple and thuggish as Trump's first instinct.

Yeah that's fair, I was more talking about the nuance in what he's going to accomplish but you're right, he does understand the brute force approach even if he can't think 5 minutes into the future
