No agenda here.
No sir-ee,
Just a sober analysis, right?
One has to ask, then. If the President is not capable of functioning rationally, what does that say about the Democrat's complete inability to defeat him politically? How do you explain success in trade negotiations, or preventing war?
I think there is a lot of empirical evidence that Trump makes the left crazy.
But I didn't go to Yale, so what do I know.

I'm going to start calling myself Senor "Don" Quixote...because for some reason, I keep jousting at these windmills expecting a different result. Any-whooo:
What did the Mueller Report actually "prove"? Without spending too much time re-capping, let it be suffice to say that all it really demonstrated was that (a) the Russians engaged in illegal activity to insert propaganda into circulation towards influencing voter opinion during the election. It conveniently does not speak to how much of this "propaganda" exploited actual facts or pre-existing ideas regarding any particular candidate. (B), it cites numerous business and personal interests the then candidate Trump had with Russian entities...without going into great detail regarding whether or not any of these interests were in and of themselves, illegal, or had anything to do with the aforementioned actions of Russian intelligence operatives. (C), the report states that the Trump campaign, including those of his "inner circle", reached out to Russians who claimed to have negative information on his political rival, Mrs. Clinton. Here again, it does little to spell out what particular "crimes" were committed in this action...let alone, whether or not this "negative" information was in fact, accurate. (D), it suggests the President, and key individuals working with him, sought to "obstruct justice", or "lied"...without (to my mind, at least) adequately explaining how the "tail was leading the dog" in regards to many, if not all of these inquiries, how well-established precedent regarding Presidential privilege played a role, or how the entire basis of this charge was contained in the President and his administration refusing to participate in proceedings which were in and of themselves, clearly partisan.
In terms of Trump's "psychology", all I see is a man who refused to allow the "law" to be twisted to obtain a desired political result. I'm not 100% on-board with everything he says or does, but I've consistently heard that he would lead us into "WWIII"...which has not happened; that his policies are biased against minorities...which would seem to be at best, a subjective claim; and that his Presidency marks a "dictatorial" turn in our government and society...something that if true, I only seem to be able to identify among selected members of the opposing political party.
I cannot, and will not insult anyone's principles or personal integrity regarding their opposition to Trump...we all have our points of view. However, I find it difficult to understand, quantitatively, what many Democrats are hoping for in the next Chief Executive. Given the recent primaries, it would seem the Democratic Party is finding that to be challenging as well.
My humble suggestion...if we really want to have a positive, meaningful debate, is to cease seeking ways to assault the current CIC's mental state, morality, or fitness for office...and for those opposed to detail, in specifics, what it is exactly they desire from the Office.
