Has Trump completely lost what was left of his mind?

I sincerely hope the midterms show that Trump is losing his grip on his voters.
But they voted him in twice.
So I really don’t trust American voters.

When Robert Mueller, former FBI director died a while back, Trump very publicly declared that he was glad he was dead!

They say where there's no sense there's no feeling.........

It is unbelievable that Trump should make a joke out of this tragic incident. I keep thinking he can’t sink any lower and unfortunately he always does. My heart goes out to Williams family at this sad time.

If I start to think that man can’t stoop any lower, he does. What a disgusting individual he is. I think , rather than suffering from dementia, he is just pure, pure evil!

Agree, dementia can’t be an excuse for his diabolical behaviour

People with dementia do not behave like this. Trump may well have some form of mental illness as has been suggested. He often sounds delusional to me.

You'd think that someone, perhaps J D Vance, would apologise for America.

In my view this latest incident is one of the most distasteful thing he has ever said or done.

Can he not see how others will view this ?
I wonder if he thinks that as the tragic death happened here, most Americans won’t realise the significance of the video.

Could this one tasteless stunt be the thing which finally finishes his political career?

It's almost as if he has to go more and more extreme to get peoples attention because everyone is getting used to his erratic behaviour.

No, it won't finish his presidency - the Musks, Zuckerbergs, Bezos and all will defend him to the bitter end - he's made too much money for them. They're not going to let the Golden Goose fall on his sword.

I was going to suggest something similar - that he would do, or say something, that would, finally, be the last-straw for many of his supporters.

But I listened to a conversation recently between a young man questioning Trump's morals and an obviously older man - a MAGA enthusiast - who was demanding to know what was actually "wrong" with a much older man hitting on much younger girls if, as has been alleged, the Epstein files contain information that would implicate Trump in such activities. I think what MAGA-man was attempting to highlight is that it's in a man's nature to desire young women... because I've heard that defence a number of times. Unfortunately, the younger man was so stunned by the question that he couldn't deal with the conversation.

It seems if someone's gone 'full MAGA' then there will be little chance of Trump doing anything that can't be rationalised one way or another. I doubt this will be an exception.

It doesn’t matter what Musk, Zuckerberg and bezos want.
Congress will decide his future.
All the indications are there that he is going to loose the mid terms.
All the bookies are giving odds that he’s dead in the water as far as congress is concerned.

I fear that your confidence in Congress might be misplaced. I suspect that Trump will ignore anything Congress might try to do to curb him and there will be nothing further that Congress can do. I think it will need an army to get Trump out of the White House…

In the light of the Ukraine war, where Musk and Trump seem to be collaborating in reducing Ukraine’s access to the Musk owned technology which it depends on for military communications and for operating its munitions I think it matters very much what, at the very least, Musk wants…

This article gives me hope that Trumps actions could be reversed.

I don't often agree with you about political matters, JenniferEccles, but this time I think you're quite right, and I hope you might be right about about his career being finished. However, I think it's unlikely, seeing that, as you say, the death happened here, not in the US.

The mocked-up video of him wrestling a tiger was tasteless enough under the circumstances but re- posting the actual attack was, well, beyond words in its awfulness.

I’m pretty sure that the majority of Americans who are Republican supporters are perfectly decent folk and many of them could feel that Trump has gone too far here and decide to punish him in the upcoming elections.

Interesting times.

I never thought Trump would get away with half the stunts he has pulled, but he’s still there.
He once boasted he could shoot an innocent man dead in a crowded street in broad daylight and he would people would still support him. I think he is right.
Which is why our country and Europe can never trust the US again no matter who the president is, because our security can never be put in the hands of people who are capable of voting for and continuing to support a maniac like this.
We can only ever turn towards Europe from now on.

Totally agree. Don't excuse his behaviour. He is odious.

Dementia patients do not get better.

You are unfortunately spot on. Trump will only get worse.

What is even more worrying, IMO, is that the US is no longer giving Ukraine any warning of Russian missile attacks. Apparently the US is the only NATO country which has the technology to detect missile launches.

Trump is working as a Putin ally...

Or maybe that when he asked for help it was declined. So really why should he help them.

AmberGran

This is the man who is talking about having public executions. What more can you expect???

He also talks about shooting people who protest at his rallies!

I just find it truly shocking that a man with no moral compass, compassion or interest in anyone but himself is one of the most powerful men in the world. It is really scary that so many Americans were willing to vote him in the first time, let alone for a second term.

Listening today - apparently Trump supports the young thugs at Cornell, who drugged and raped a young 20 year old girl.

He’s named her “The dog”

White wave, your post at 15.02 today seems to have silenced us all. I read it just as I was about to join the condemnation of Trump I was and remain so shocked, horrified etc etc I’m still beyond a coherent response

Not fit to be called a human being let alone the president of the USA. I really fail to see why Americans continue to support him. Just when you think he can't stoop any lower he comes out with something like this.

Can you expand on that?
