"Trump’s aggressive response to the Supreme Court vacancy, as compared to his dereliction regarding COVID, reveals three fundamental qualities: his callousness and lack of care for others; his strong drive to dominate others; and his inability to deal... (1/7)
"... with complex problems that require a sustained focus. These traits are hallmarks of Psychopathic Personality Disorder, a severe and dangerous condition for which the president meets the diagnostic criteria... (2/7)
"... A humane and comprehensive response to COVID would have required empathy and a capacity to work diligently on complex issues. The absence of these qualities is deeply ingrained in his personality structure... (3/7)
"... he literally does not care how many people die... He simply does not possess the emotional infrastructure to care. Psychopaths do not experience guilt or shame and do not feel responsible for their neglectful or destructive behavior... (4/7)
"... Lacking that essential humanizing function of conscience, psychopaths can behave callously toward others without a sliver of guilt or shame.... Trump’s choice to politicize the pandemic has added grievously to the death toll." (5/7)
What can we expect next?
"Psychopaths are frantic over the threat of losing status and would be remorseless in their attempts to prevent that from happening. I don’t think he will accept the results, even in the case of a clear-cut Biden victory..." (6/7)

Maybe it's finally time for the media to listen to @tedlieu and the millions who are concerned about the Trump's joined-at-the-hip relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.
In this🧵, I'll detail 31 things about Trump and Epstein that should concern everyone
1. We know for sure that Trump was a frequent guest at Epstein's homes in New York and Florida over a multi-year period in which young girls were being groomed and raped.
🤔Imagine how different public perceptions of Trump would be if the US media had taken the Jeffrey Epstein-related allegations against him half as seriously as the UK media took the allegations against Prince Andrew.
Why have the US media shown only a passing interest in Trump's multi-year, joined-at-the-hip relationship with notorious sex trafficker and child rapist Jeffrey Epstein and his partner-in-crime Ghislaine Maxwell, even as the UK press devoted massive coverage to Prince Andrew?
As the New York Times wrote in 2022, Prince Andrew drew "global infamy and revulsion over accusations that he raped a teenager in 2001."
Meanwhile, the crimes Trump allegedly committed are worse than Prince Andrew's—over a longer time period and involving more & younger victims.

If you only saw Trump's interview with Fox & Friends on TV, you wouldn't have seen the "awkwardness" of Trump's answer about #Epstein, reports @pbump in WaPo.
"This is the same guy who said Obama was born in Kenya and Ted Cruz’s dad killed JFK. Now all of a sudden he’s like, 'Look, if you put inaccurate information out there, it can really destroy someone’s reputation.'"
2nd camera angle shows Biden interacting with parachuters not visible in deceptive viral video pushed by @nypost & @RNCResearch.
Please share so everyone sees how @GOP scumbags use lies & disinformation to smear Biden, even as they hide DJT's dementia.
🧐Why is @RNCResearch attacking the only competent candidate in the race?
"The 45th president is deeply unwell. It is long past time for Americans, including those in public life, to recognize his inability to serve as the 47th," writes @RadioFreeTom
While @RNCResearch attacks Biden's age with fake videos, Trump's slide into dementia becomes more and more obvious every time he opens his mouth. unprecedented.ghost.io/archive/trumps…
He's turned it into the far-right, incel-friendly, hate-speech-filled, fact-averse echo chamber that Parler and Gab always dreamed of being. His own tweets are relentlessly promoted, no matter how offensive.
@KellyScaletta sums it up:
@KellyScaletta Despite claiming he wants to restore X's reputation as a news destination, Musk is ramping up his attacks on #journalism in general and @Reuters in particular.
