He's unraveling & is a danger to others.
He is #unfit to be POTUS.
But make no mistake. He knows EXACTLY what he is doing.
Listen to his words. His psychopathy is on full display as he coaxes masses into more violent blowouts. May also provide cover if he's a #FlightRisk.

With one foot in reality, his #psychopathic survival instincts are likely still in charge.
