I knew he was a bad authoritarian president but I thought things might have settled down after November. When I woke up yesterday and saw that letter, it was another level entirely. He’s Commodus, Mad King George insane. Even his language – he’s restrained only by his own mind – is the kind of thing you say when you’re psychotic. This isn’t just Trump being a delusional narcissist; it’s another level of genuine mental incapacity. You know me: I don’t toss around the language of mental illness lightly and have chastised Billdude for making light of OCD. He is decompensating.
