This is from the HuffPost article
“We’ve never seen anything like this in history,” Jordan said on “Fox & Friends” on Sunday. “So, President Trump’s statement yesterday, I think is right on target.”
Trump and Jordan were referencing a Feb. 11 filing by Justice Department special counsel John Durham reported by Fox News that claims the Clinton campaign paid a tech company to “infiltrate” Trump Tower servers looking for links between Trump and Russia.
“In a stronger period of time in our country, this crime would have been punishable by death,” Trump said in a statement.
I don’t usually post comments on HuffPost itself but thought it was worth posting this one there:
I am sure others have pointed out Jordan's choice of words is telling when he used the phrase "I think is right on target." I don't think it is a stretch to suggest that he is fantasizing a firing squad considering who (and what) he is.
This fantasizing about violent death reminded me of a diary I posted on Jan. 26, 2017: “Message to Trump — “24” is not real” which I wrote after reading another HuffPost article: “Donald Trump Wants To Make America Waterboard Again — “But do I feel it works? Absolutely, I feel it works.”
This is some of what I wrote in that diary:
We know Trump lives in world where alternate reality and reality gets mixed up on what seems to be a daily basis. We know he doesn’t read and loves to watch TV. We know it seem like he lives in episodes of The Twilight Zone. He also may live inside TV shows which play on his paranoia…. Considering Trump’s emphatic belief that torture works, I think it is vital we remind him that TV shows where the heroic anti-hero saves the world by brutally getting a terrorist to reveal where the nuclear bomb is hidden (within a time span of just one day) — if you were a fan you know how many times Jack Bauer did that from one season to the next.
Men like Trump and Jordan, and some women like Greene and Boebert, exhibit signs of being, if not full blown psychopaths, at least that they have fantasies consistent with what I think some people who wish they could inflict pain or death on their enemies.
Psychiatrist Lance Dodes, a frequent guest on Lawrence O’Donnell , considers Donald Trump to be a delusional psychopath.
Just one prhase may seem like a small thing to dwell on but I was a psychoanalytically oriented therapist for 40 some years. This is how I think about people when I try to understand their underlying motivations and their personalities.
I obviously can’t say with the confidence I have when I write about Trump’s dangerous psychopathogy as I have done many times since there is so much information about Trump, from his own words to a book by his clinical psychologist niece Mary Trump.
Jordan is not on my analytic couch so with me thinking as a therapist I just don’t know enough about how he was raised. All I can do is speculate based on his behavior since he came a major Trump supporter. including watching some of his questioning in his role as the top Republican on the House Judiciary Committee, seeing his facial expression and raised fist in that omnipresent photo (correction: that was Josh Hawley), and knowing about what he did to try to cover up the sexual abuse on the wrestling team where he was an assistant coach at Ohio State. Of course the Ohio State scandal earned him the nickname of Gym Jordan.
South Park and Madtv comedy writer Toby Morton even started a website GymJordan2022.com
Uppate about Toby Morton: See “Lauren Boebert Escalates Feud With South Park Writer, Threatens Parody Website With Legal Action”.
This is what he is being sued for:
He has registered the web name thelaurenboebert.com. It comes up for a search of just her name as number one on a DuckDuckGo (DDG) search. Unfortunately, it isn’t among the websites on the first 10 pages of a Google search.
Gym Jordan even trended on Twitter:
I do think that Jordan’s use of the words “on target” might have been accidental or deliberate. He said something out loud that reveals what I believe he had in his mind.
