Trump and his allies filed more than 40 lawsuits challenging the 2020 election results. All of them failed. Donald Trump was literally crying like a baby when it became clear Pence would not listen to him regarding the plot to stay in power. Trump has the emotional intelligence of a 4 year old. That's why his base resonates with him.
Poor senile cry baby still throwing temper tantrumās when faced with the truthā¦ In Alzheimerās, language skills deteriorate. Trumpās speech patterns appear even more disordered when you go beyond the sound bite and look at a whole speech. He careens from one thought to the next in a parade of non sequiturs, frequently interrupting himself in the middle of a sentence to veer into another free association. When commentators described his two-hour speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference last month as āunhinged,ā they were referring in large part to this quality.
However
No one needs to have a brain disease or a psychiatric disorder to be a sexual predator; a virulent racist; a pathological liar; an illiterate, ignorant fool who fancies himself a stable genius; a deeply insecure narcissist; or a spectacularly failed businessman (He lost his miserable fatherās fortune AND drove casinos into the ground; places WHERE THEY GIVE YOU MONEY.) You donāt need to be mentally challenged to be a coward on multiple occasions and within a range of different contexts.
You donāt need to be mentally infirm to be someone who doesnāt give a shit about anything but himself and his personal interests; a hateful, destructive force who is driven by pettiness, spite, and vengeance; a misogynist bent on dismantling protections for women and children; someone who assaults, attacks, and abuses both people of honor (another thing he knows nothing about), such as those whoāve served proudly and/or made the ultimate sacrifice during military service, and those who cannot defend or protect themselves; someone who screws the people who work both with him and for him; someone who places himself above the law; or who instead of hiring āthe best peopleā for critically important positions brings onboard people skilled in corruption and double-dealing; people who are also self-serving, incompetent, and dishonest in the extreme to the extent that they enthusiastically (and habitually) rip-off taxpayers with impunity. All in the name of some putrid sense of false patriotism that other false patriots lap up with unlimited glee along with unwarranted pride made of tin foil.
You also donāt need a medical or psychiatric diagnosis to be a disturbingly hateful, destructive, and incompetent president.
This poor excuse for a human being is, without a doubt, an intractable, unrelenting, and irredeemable psychopath. Psychopathy is considered to be a predominant and potentially lethal element of being a psychopath, a deadly character disorder that attracts angry, uneducated mobs.

If the world contains things that. . . even the dark is afraid of, then you can bet that thereāll be a secret government agency covering them up.
This. . . is just slightly less dangerous than allowing nerds with laptops to wave a magic wand and turn them into hydrogen bombs at will. Because, you see, everything you know about the way this universe works is correctāexcept for the little problem that this isnāt the only universe we have to worry about. Information can leak between one universe and another. And in a vanishingly small number of the other universes there are things that listen, and talk backāsee. The many-angled ones, as they say, live at the bottom of the Mandelbrot set, except when a suitable incantation in the platonic realm of mathematicsācomputerised or otherwiseādraws them forth. (And you thought running that fractal screen-saver was good for your computer?)

Oh, and did I mention that the inhabitants of those other universes donāt play by our rule book?

Who are they? They are the old ones.
The Old Ones were, the Old Ones are, and the Old Ones shall be.
Not in the spaces we know, but *between* them,
They walk serene and primal, undimensioned and to us unseen.
