I frequently think that Trump's narcissistic personality disorder is a trigger for everyone else who has narcissistic personality disorder. It explains so much.

Good point. Also probably accurate. I think the Prez would make insecure people feel very uncomfortable. Other narcissists would probably feel threatened. The well adjusted person would just want to smack him with a brick. Fortunately for him, probably not a lot of those in people with whom he deals regularly. Of course I've never mentioned the bloke, so my perception may be unfair and wrong.
Rule of thumb: if you want to understand a manger/person in charge, have a look at those with whom he /she surrounds himself. Trump is a classic example of a a kind of manger one wishes to avoid at all costs. I formed that opinion after seeing him (once) in action on that dreadful TV show. As prez, he seems to have gotten worse. Do you think he's doing a Ronald Reagan?

That reminds me of a joke.
Two lunatics sat together in an asylum. One said, "God spoke to me!"
The other answered, "I did no such thing!"

I like the other version better. The chairman of the board of trustees visits an asylum that his organization funds. The psychiatrist gives him a tour and takes him to see their patients with the most severe psychosis. He takes him to one padded cell where there is a man who thinks that he is Moses. He takes him to another where their is a man who thinks that he is god. He takes him to a third where there is the guy whom the psychiatrist describes as the worst case of them all; it is a guy who thinks that he is moshiach. The chairman is confused, and wants to know what makes this guy the worst case of all.
The psychiatrist looks at the chairman like he thinks that the chairman is crazy, and exclaims, "How can he be moshiach? I'm moshiach!"

So the report did not find enough evidence of collusion with Russia to indict . BUT seems to say that Trump did obstruct the investigation.
If he was innocent why obstruct?
Is he really stupid enough to go down for obstructing an investigation into something he didn't do?

People with money think that they can tell most other people what to do, and they will do it. In the chump's case, I think he just didn't and probably still doesn't realize that he works for the people, not the other way around. Given his obvious cluelessness about government, he probably figured he could just fire the investigators (Comey, for example) and the entire mess would go away. My take on the Russian thing is that the entire bunch is hapless and has very little in the way of a clue on how the gov works. Further, there is likely more stuff that could be (and it looks like probably was) uncovered in the process, which the chump didn't want to have see the light of day.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Yeah, that's getting to be a real tired song. Defund something till it breaks, then point at it's brokenness for a reason to slash funding. I don't think they'll be happy until we're sending our kids to sweatshops to learn math. One boot..two boot..three boot...

I hear we're gonna need a new round to cover what the last round didn't. Crack logic.
