I think Trapper is confusing Legal vs Legitimate.

@geofu54 - I’ve recently had a couple of conversations with Trump supporters who explain away his odd political behavior in business management clichés. Essentially they say, “We’ve all had new CEOs who are ‘disrupters’. They come in wanting to change everything. Trump is nothing new or unexpected. All we have to do is wait for him to settle down when reality kicks in.” So I wonder how long those folks are prepared to wait …

Imagine you’ve spent years being told and buying in to how awful the mainstream media is and someone is so outrageous it prompts the press to react like this. At that point you don’t care what the person said, you probably don’t even want to hear what they said, you just get high off seeing the press go nuts.
Nearly half the country will love this as much as the critically thinking half abhorred it.

I, too, have heard that same sentiment on CNBC by some Wall Street “analysts.” They seem to think this is some kind of transitory stage that’s thought out and planned.
They REALLY have no idea what’s coming…

Since when is 26% almost half?
And why do people persist in this myth that almost half the country supported him? No they did not.
We were more divided over W than we are over this man =- we are in agreement over Trump. He lost by 11 million popular votes.
Half the country is a Trumpish exaggeration.

The more “moderate” of that crowd seem be totally at a loss as to how we became so deeply divided on 10 November 2016. They then immediately pivot to Clinton’s “sins” and how this whole mess is really the Dem’s fault for not fielding a better candidate that could’ve beaten Trump.

The person is not dealing with the world in which we live.
For legal and ethical reasons they don’t want to talk about Trump’s mental illness. Media lawyers will tell you it’s a thing you can’t just up and call someone. But that’s a de facto statement about his mental health all the same.

As far as the NYT is concerned, I was just reading their coverage of the presser. They thought it was great! Glenn Thrush: “There’s a genius to this.”

Meh. Until Fox News anchors begin saying this, little will change. Fox News leads, the GOP follows.

Not legitimate because his campaign colluded with a hostile foreign power to influence the outcome of the election.

Legitimate President?

the guy is i n the early stage of a mental breakdown.
i would give odds NO ONE wanted him to go out and do this…BUT…he ALREADY has reached the point where he doesnt trust anyone enough to speak for him and he has no place to hide…no place to go and get away from it all…that is why they put that florida rally together…it is being done to avert a total psychological breakdown of a tired scared paranoid man…the crowd like a needle full of heroin to the junkie in withdrawal is meant to CALM him down.

Nope, not an EARLY stage. It’s later than you think.

He is king of grievance politics and victim-hood. It’s his brand.

Not only is CNN “fake news,” but John Barron told me that Jake Tapper doesn’t even exist!

Been there. It was the CEO of a large company. I was stunned. That evening I polished my CV and began reactivating my network.
I’m actually surprised his team let him do that. Or Ivanka.

The “winning” just never seems to end. Maybe if he wins enough, he’ll eventually get 3 million more votes, but I doubt it.
I feel as if we are watching this guy fall apart in front of our eyes.

Jake, DT can’t stop whining. He doesn’t even know he is whining. Part n parcel of his illness.
In other equally salient news…
His whining is an example of his well oiled administration
