Yesterday, President Trump posted an, oh so funny, skit based on the tragic death of a mentally ill young man in a tiger compound. He clearly thought the whole event was hilarious. He did not waste a nanosecond on thinking about the distress his 'humour' would cause the family and others who loved and cared about this young man.

Today, he cancels the live screening of the execution of an Islamic terrorist embedded with in the army because so many people told him that they do not like the idea.

Is the man even sane? I do not mean suffering from dementia, but actually sane? To be able to do these two utterly opposite things within 24 hours and not be aware of it.

I don’t know what he is, have given up trying to figure it out, sadly those around him are just as bad.
Is like a spoof that isn’t funny.

It's not up to us to say whether he is sane or not. We are not qualified psychiatrists. What I would say is that he seems to think he is either God or King of the World and can do whatever he likes. He can change the names of countries or seas for instance. He thinks he can control what other countries do. So the two things you mention are small by comparison to ruling the world or changing the world.

He clearly doesn't have an ounce of decency or humanity Monica. And is a serious threat globally.Usually someone close...a family member reins, a leader of his influence in, or the mechanisms within the Whitehouse would usually kick in and avert damage limitation. Gill Biden protected her husband, once it became clear he had cognitive decline.
I don't know how much longer his debased ego can continue. He has to go and I suspect many around him must know this.

There must be people in his own government who constantly worry about what he might do or say next but, sadly, no-one ever seems to stand up to him as he seems to have the power to ruin people’s lives if they do. We need a James Bond!
