Mad Man

I don't think he's crazy at all. He's a demagogue and a narcissist, but neither makes him mad. No, he's not crazy. Millions have been left behind by the elites and he knows it. Now with Bernie almost out of the way he will try to be the man leading the angry populist lynch mob out here. he'll run to HRC's left and her right trying to get both groups of disaffected voters to rally to his rebellion. Of course, once in power it will both these groups he will crush first. Trump sees himself as a King not a President. Democracy, in all but a thin fig leaf might very well end with him, as it has in Fascist Russia today under Putin.

People won't go down without a real fight. There will be plenty of scuffles in the newspapers, all over. He gets in he has what, a 6 month grace period. We already know that goes nowhere.
