The President of the United States is Insane

 On the Saturday before Easter Day, televangelist, Paula White-Cain told the President, "And Mr. President, no one has paid the price like you have paid the price, it almost cost you your life. You were betrayed and arrested and falsely accused. It's a familiar pattern that our Lord and Savior showed us."

The next day, Easter Sunday, Donald Trump showed us a pattern which wasn't so Christ-like. On the day the Christian faith celebrates the Savior's resurrection--arguably the most important and holiest day of the year--the President of the United States posted on social media, "Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin' Strait, you crazy bastards, or you'll be living in Hell--JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP. " 

Now that's a man who understands when to be completely crude and inappropriate.  I mean let's face it, while no one on earth can truly know, what Jesus would do, it's safe to assume the Good Lord would never say something like that. 

The message from Trump moved former Congresswoman, Marjorie Taylor Greene to write in part, "Everyone in this administration that claims to be a Christian needs to fall to their knees and beg for forgiveness from God and stop worshipping the President and intervene in Trump's madness. I know all of you and him and he has gone insane, and all of you are complicit." Ms. Greene finished the lengthy social media message by writing, "This is not making America great again, this is evil."

That's right. A former U.S. Congresswoman and, a person who actively supported Donald Trump during his three runs for the Oval Office, just called the guy insane and said what he is doing is evil. Not only that, but she also, not too subtlety, told his cabinet they need to invoke the 25th amendment and remove him from office. 

Unfortunately for us all that won't happen. As MSNOW's Lawrence O'Donnell pointed out last night, Donald Trump appointed a cabinet designed explicitly not to pull that particular trigger. This time around he made sure there wasn't anyone there who would ever disagree with him no matter the circumstances. He could say the world is flat and the moon made of Swiss cheese and those sycophants and cowards in his cabinet along with many republicans in Congress, would praise him for his scientific brilliance and insight. his spiritual advisor, White-Cain would say his knowledge is divinely inspired. 

For those who think Greene went over the top in her assessment of Trump's mental state, this morning he posted another message on social media. The opening lines read, "A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don't want that to happen, but it probably will."

It doesn't matter if it is a grotesque bluff, or Trumpian bluster taken to its ludicrous extreme. No head of state who says something like that during a time of war can be considered in their right mind. Adolf Hitler might have tried to do it, but for God's sake not even he ever came out and publicly said it. Certainly, no American President has ever said it, or anything remotely like it, even during the heat of our fiercest wars.

Who knows? Maybe the President will go all TACO at the last minute. It wouldn't be the first time. Even if he does though, by writing those words he proved Marjorie Taylor Greene was right on Sunday.

Ladies and gentlemen, it can now be said in all seriousness, without any hyperbole. The President of the United States of America is both clinically and dangerously insane.
