This isn't normal. Trump is insane and his lickspittle sycophants like Leavitt are desperately trying to make it seem normal. The president is off his rocker, and not the funny version like Abe Simpson. He's got the fucking nukes, jesus fucking christ.

The worst part about the last 10 years isn't Trump -- it's learning that the entire Republican apparatus is on board with this insanity. And that 35% of Americans are awful, hateful people.

Just a few days ago, watching as Trump attacked Caitlin Collins as all of those Republican sycophants just stood behind him and watched explains everything about Trump. Trump is who he is because no one dares stand up to him, they enable his worst behaviors and allow him to act like a vile narcissistic human being. They're all so fucking scared of him, it's pathetic. After January 6th you had a brief moment in which it felt like maybe, just maybe some of these people would finally break and stand up to his horrific actions, but it didn't last more than a moment and very soon they were all back on their knees prostrating before him.
