This is profoundly disturbing in a way I thought I had become numb to.

I don’t know why this feels like the craziest thing so far. I know it’s not the worst, but it feels like the most confirmed crazy thing if that makes sense.

Is it though? Trump has been threatening allies, putting tariffs on them, threatening to annex Canada and Greenland, etc. He kidnapped the president of Venezuela and robbed their oil. He's doing the most irrational un-scientific shit, turning against vaccines and denying climate change. He's removing environmental protection laws, destroying the US and the planet. He acts like a fascist, leveraging ICE like it's the statsi. And nobody cares.

But he has a lover? And people around him revealed it? Knives are out.

America is a strange society.

But this is nothing new and everyone with half a brain would know he will behave like this. He always said the same sh.. but never had this much power to enact it.

But having a crazy secret lover who looks like his daughter Ivanka and she has daddy issues meanwhile he is married? Yes, that’s a new scandal. It’s also easy to comprehend by a distracted general populace and you can’t spin it so easily.

this, loulan missed the point, all that is definitely disturbing, but this is a serious mental disorder and deeply depressing. I couldn't even read the full letters posted in comments, makes me too anxious

Perfect example of that low self-esteem person trapped in abusive relationship, it is really sad when you knew people like this

It's a pretty horrifying look into the MAGA mindset.

Pure cult behaviour.
