Elected a demented president, get demented statements.

Here's a handful in a single message. The war will end, the Palestinians will magically disappear without use of force, Gaza will look like a resort, and the Palestinians (a word he also used a pejorative in the same sentence) will be safe and happy.
The White House must be a madhouse at this point.
DJT likely has frontotemporal dementia (combined with malignant narcissism an extremely combustible condition) and is letting a drug addled sociopath set fire to the administrative state without DJT having a clue what to do about it.
DJT´s aggressive behavior is increasingly out of control - this is when patients are at risk to be shown the door of their care facilities.
It won't take much longer for Musk's activities to become so unpopular that it will impact DJT's popularity; and with it the realization by many that Musk´s unfettered assault on critical government services is actually exposing DJT's weakness.
Let's just hope that it is just DJT who is going to explode and not the rest of us as well.
There are millions that are or will be directly or indirectly impacted by the destruction wreaked by this government and the layoffs have already begun.
The funny thing is that preventing the administrative state from performing its functions is actually what´s usually the goal of a general strike - which is what brings governments down.
So we have the interesting situation that the government is taking actions that will result in widespread anger - it's like watching a government engineering a general strike against itself. That's definitely a historically unique situation that´s developing here.
Breakdown of law and order and government function from the top down, that´s what we are looking at.
Fascinating really, and if there weren't so many that are about to get hurt by this madness, it would be entertaining, to be honest.
Behavioural-variant frontotemporal dementia: an update
Olivier Piguet, John R Hodges
Abstract
Behavioural-variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) is characterised by insidious changes in personality and interpersonal conduct that reflect progressive disintegration of the neural circuits involved in social cognition, emotion regulation, motivation and decision making. The underlying pathology is heterogeneous and classified according to the presence of intraneuronal inclusions of tau, TDP-43 or occasionally FUS. Biomarkers to detect these histopathological changes in life are increasingly important with the development of disease-modifying drugs. Gene mutations have been found which collectively account for around 10-20% of cases including a novel hexanucleotide repeat on chromosome 9 (C9orf72). The recently reviewed International Consensus Criteria for bvFTD propose three levels of diagnostic certainly: possible, probable and definite. Detailed history taking from family members to elicit behavioural features underpins the diagnostic process with support from neuropsychological testing designed to detect impairment in decision-making, emotion processing and social cognition. Brain imaging is important for increasing the level of diagnosis certainty. Carer education and support remain of paramount importance.https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5619539/
