“Since narcissists deep down feel themselves to be faultless, it is inevitable that when they are in conflict with the world they will invariably perceive the conflict as the world’s fault.”
~ M. Scott Peck
I almost hesitate to post this, not because it does not tell the tale of a maniacal narcissistic dictator, and perverted mind, but because it barely scratches the surface of the ego and absolute danger posed by such an evil character as Trump. What is happening here and now in this country is unprecedented in history. The globalization and technocratic buildup is tremendous, and moving at lightening speed toward horrendous times ahead.
These are but a minute handful of quotes and statements by Trump, exposing extreme contradiction, lies, propaganda, hypocrisy, immorality, and outright madness of this man who was specifically selected to be in this position in order to accomplish the agendas of his controllers. There are literally thousands more quotes that would upset even the most docile of souls.
This is only the minor tip of the iceberg of Trump quotes, boasts, and threats; and remember, this is ‘your’ (those who support this system) president,’ certainly not mine. I claim no authority over me at any level whatsoever.
** Some offensive language.

Because a lot of times, by the time you go to court, it takes so long to go to court, to get the due process procedures. I like taking the guns early. Like in this crazy man’s case that just took place in Florida, he had a lot of firearms – they saw everything – to go to court would have taken a long time, so you could do exactly what you’re saying, but take the guns first, go through due process second.”
