Not ONLY Is Trump Shown To Be Losing He is Also Unfit = each time he speaks he says nothing

Trump UNFIT To Be President
"#Unfit" delivers a Trump diagnosis we all know and warns of dire consequences for ignoring it | Salon.com

Trump's entire presidency is one long stretch of observable behavior available to be interpreted in multiple platforms, and that's before a person digs through his tweets.

Thus by standing on the ground of the Tarasoff Rule, which imposes a duty on a therapist to warn appropriate parties when a patient may present a risk of harm to a specific person or persons, Gartner and his colleagues are emboldened to share their assessment. In this case the party in question is the American public, and the diagnosis, malignant narcissism, encompasses paranoia, antisocial personality disorder (otherwise known as psychopathy) and sadism. To which any Never Trumpers who has endured the past four years can only reply, "Um, duh-doy!"

If I'm coming across as cavalier in this review, it's only because "#Unfit" is a work meant to confirm suspicions many of us have long stopped agonizing over. The film calculates that Trump has busted out at least 19,127 lies and false claims since his inauguration, and one look at our Twitter feeds is enough to observe the ways that he's shattered norms and broken laws.

The Republican Convention itself contains multiple demonstrated violations of The Hatch Act. It also occurred on the heels of released findings of a bipartisan report from the Senate Intelligence Committee that confirms that Trump's 2016 campaign did in fact work closely with the Russian government, including intelligence operatives, to sabotage that election and help him win the presidency.

The public and the media should be making a bigger deal about those developments than it is, and the fact that their import has been muted by collective head shaking over a party convention with no platform other than praising Trump says a great deal about the environment in which this film is debuting. Hopefully we care about these violations. Those who don't aren't going to be moved by this movie.

However, "#Unfit" successfully makes its case concerning why Trump's psychological instability should be of concern to the public – you know, other than the fact that he's channeled his sadism, sexism, racism and general violation of democratic norms into harmful policies.

Once the mental health professionals have had their say, the historians step in to offer their assessment of what it means to have a malignant narcissist in charge of a nuclear arsenal or fueling nationalism and racist violence.

"The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds Biden earning 50% support among Likely U.S. Voters to Trump's 40%. Six percent (6%) remain undecided," Rasmussen Reports writes. "The new survey finds Trump with 74% of the Republican vote. Biden has the support of 79% of Democrats. Among voters not affiliated with either major party, it's Biden 48%, Trump 36%."

Rasmussen's new numbers are right in line with other pollsters, as the current polling average at website FiveThirtyEight gives Biden a lead of 9.7 percentage points.

Biden's lead over Trump has grown significantly over the last month as the novel coronavirus has swept across the country and led to record numbers of daily cases.
 
Trump is a One-Trick-Pony; his forte' is the economy, and little else. A typical business man uses the same tactics as Trump (well duh), with little concern for anything other than the bottom line and their success.

The POTUS is no place for a One-Trickster; statesmanship and being a good leader requires diplomacy, emotional maturity, empathy, integrity, perspective, accountability, open mindedness, and may other positive attributes. A good president and a successful business man have little in common.
 
== Article 1. Donald J. Trump, in violation of his oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution, and to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, has obstructed the administration of justice:

1. He attempted to fire Mueller. The Mueller report found “substantial evidence . . . that the President’s attempts to remove the Special Counsel were linked to the Special Counsel’s oversight of investigations that involved the President’s conduct.”

2. Trump attempted to curtail Mueller’s investigation. Mueller found “that the President’s effort to have [Attorney General Jeff] Sessions limit the scope of the Special Counsel’s investigation to future election interference was intended to prevent further investigative scrutiny of the President’s and his campaign’s conduct.”

3. He ordered White House counsel Donald McGahn to falsify the record to conceal his attempts to fire Mueller. Mueller found that Trump “acted . . . in order to deflect or prevent further scrutiny of the President’s conduct.”

4. He fired FBI Director James B. Comey, Mueller found, because of “Comey’s unwillingness to publicly state that the President was not personally under investigation.”

Moreover, Mueller wrote, by firing Comey “the President wanted to protect himself from an investigation into his campaign,” because he knew “that a thorough FBI investigation would uncover facts about the campaign and the President personally that the President could have understood to be crimes or that would give rise to personal and political concerns.” Trump showed awareness of guilt by advancing “a pretextual reason to the press and the public for Comey’s termination.”

5. He tried to dissuade Michael Flynn, Paul Manafort, Michael Cohen, Roger Stone, and other witnesses from cooperating with the government. The non-cooperation of Manafort and Stone, in particular, made it impossible to establish the exact nature of the relationship between the Trump campaign and the Russian government.

== Article II. Donald J. Trump, in violation of his oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution, and to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, failed to defend America from foreign election interference. As a candidate, he welcomed Russian intervention in the 2016 election and refused to notify the proper authorities of contacts between his campaign and representatives of Russia and WikiLeaks.

As president, he denied that the Russian attack had even occurred, accepted Russian President Vladimir Putin’s false denials of responsibility, and showed no interest in determining the full scale of the attack. He repeatedly called the Russia investigation a “hoax” and a “witch hunt” even though Mueller determined “that there were multiple, systematic efforts to interfere in our election” and that “the matters we investigated were of paramount importance.”

== Article III. Donald J. Trump, in violation of his oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution, and to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, attempted to investigate and prosecute his political opponents. On three occasions, Mueller found, Trump asked the Justice Department to initiate investigations of Hillary Clinton. More recently, Trump and his attorney, Rudolph W. Giuliani, attempted to initiate an investigation of Joe Biden.

== Article IV. Donald J. Trump, in violation of his oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution, and to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, failed to produce papers and testimony as duly directed by Congress. Trump obstructed at least 20 inquiries relating to his taxes, business records, the Mueller investigation and other matters.

== Article V. Donald J. Trump, in violation of federal campaign finance laws, conspired with his attorney Michael Cohen in order to conceal alleged relationships with adult film actress Stormy Daniels and Playboy playmate Karen McDougal before the 2016 election.

== Article VI. Donald J. Trump, in violation of his oath to uphold Article 1, section 9 of the Constitution (“No money shall be drawn from the treasury, but in consequence of appropriations made by law”), attempted to misuse his emergency powers to spend funds on a border wall that Congress did not appropriate.

== Article VII. Donald J. Trump, in violation of his oath to uphold the emoluments clauses (which forbid the president from accepting benefits from foreign and state governments without the permission of Congress) retains ownership of a global business empire which allows him to benefit from dealings with foreign and state governments.

ALEC GOP has committed more criminal and unconstitutional conduct under Trump than any previous president in U.S. history. The entire GOP and Trump administration must resign.
 
Our President is a corrupt idiot.

180,000 Americans should not be dead, millions should not be out of work and thousands of employers should NOT be going out of business.

Trump and the GOP are proving to be stupid ......
 
Trump can speak for a long time and never say anything of substance ------ the RNC being the perfect example.
