I have described lots of evidence to confirm that Trump has a psychiatric disorder. As of today, I won’t engage in arguments about it because if you don’t believe it now, you won’t ever, unless he goes before an audience and his head spins a 360 or goes full-on Exorcist.
Today I am thinking about something that does not quite neatly fit into a symptom on the list of a DSM category. Let’s just say batshit crazy nos (DSM speak for not otherwise specified).
We all know how often Trump is influenced by Fox News.
Here’s the most recent example. Lawrence O’Donnell had a segment on about this last night.
As those of you who have followed my Trumpology diaries know I view Trump through my clinician eye (the left one). Here, once again, he seems to have shown again that he blurs the real world of what is reasonably possible and the world that is just adolescent fantasy, wishful thinking, and/or utterly preposterous.
Trump is now said to have told multiple advisers on various occasions over the past week that the U.S.-Mexico border is a ‘national security’ issue, and the barrier should come out of the Department of Defense's pockets.”
A few nights ago Trump as your heard by now tweeted this:
Because of the $700 & $716 Billion Dollars gotten to rebuild our Military, many jobs are created and our Military is again rich. Building a great Border Wall, with drugs (poison) and enemy combatants pouring into our Country, is all about National Defense. Build WALL through M!
Trump might be ignorant enough to believe the military (aka M ) will "Build WALL." (note he has dropped the “the” from “Build the Wall!”
I bet he’s practicing how to give the order while in front a huge crowd of hysterically cheering bigots, with giant machines waiting to fire up their diesel engines, to start building his crowning achievement.
Build… WALL! BUILD!….. WALL!!!! BUILD WALL!!!!
The roar of the cacophonous roar of the crowd. The ear-splitting and earth-shaking rumble of a hundred construction machines firing up. It would be more of a turn-on for him than grabbing 20 women’s you-know-whats.
So, perhaps he believes he is so powerful he can command the military to start a nuclear war, why not build a little wall?
Maybe there’s no crazy there.
However, just assessing the next to last sentence in the Tweet one has to wonder if he has taken leave of his senses:
Building a great Border Wall, with drugs (poison) and enemy combatants pouring into our Country, is all about National Defense.
Where did Trump come up with the paranoid lunacy that enemy combatants, perhaps descendants of the great Francisco "Pancho" Villa among them, were pouring into our country?
It turns out that Ann Coulter told Fox News host Jeanine Pirro that border protection is an issue of national security on the show hosted by the Intensely moronic Jeanne Pirro.
I hate to speculate what kind of hold or influence she has over him because she is constantly reaming him out on Fox. We already know it turns him on when a woman spanks him. How’s this for a spanking:
Just yesterday:
Ann Coulter Blasts Trump: The Only People Trump Screws Repeatedly Are His Voters,
Haaretz 16h ago, Ann Coulter attacks immigrants as ugly rapists, prompts walkout in Boulder,
The Mercury News Mar 22, 2018, Ann Coulter slams Trump over spending bill: 'Congratulations, President Schumer!' AOL Mar 24, 2018,
Coulter slams Trump: We thought we were getting a negotiator The Hill Mar 25, 2018
To know why Coulter, the harsh mistress, is still someone who he finds credible would mean going so deep into his perverse thought process you might never get out.
In any case, this man’s mind is a giant shop vacuum unquestioningly sucking up advice that fits his worldview no matter how that it is so far out of left field it's in the bushes across the highway beyond the stadium parking lot. That far.
Addendum:
This is the message that got through to Trump
"[We] engage in a lot of military actions around the world. I think it can be done right on our border as part of the defense, have the Seabees do it. Where does he get the money to build the wall that you say he can build as national defense? Where does he take the money from?" Pirro asked.
"The same place Reagan took the money to invade Granada, the same place [Trump] took the money to bomb Syria. He has money to spend on national defense," Coulter responded.
