Trump's squeals will be from the excruciating psychic pain of being metaphorically stripped naked and exposed to the world as a pathetic fraud. That is what malignant narcissists fear the most.

Michael, he's not 'metaphorically' stripped naked. Trump is literally stark naked and as Hugh added, going over Niagara Falls in a barrel. His squeals echo throughout the land.

The Emperor without his clothes. I want to see it ruled that he may NEVER hold any office ever again.

Yes, Sally, IтАЩll settle for only that if I have to. But we must have THAT. The Orange Demon must never again get his hands on such power.

If DOJ pursues him only for mishandling and destroying official documents, he will be barred from holding office ever again. Of course, I'd prefer that he be tried for treason, but we've all learned that where TFG's involved, we must have lower expectations.

Absolutely! If he had been a Democrat, and the Rethuglicans were investigating, they would have buried him under a federal prison. The Democrats are much too willing to be "fair," and I have no idea whether Merrick Garland has a strategy at all.

The Emperor has no clothes. Reminds me of that Danny Kaye song in the Hans Christian Andersen movie from the 50s. тАЬThe king is in the all together, the alltogether, as naked as the day that he was bornтАЭ. He has been parading around basking in delusional flattery for a lifetime. Jig is up

Bullies and psychopaths project their rage onto others They become as vicious as trapped rats lashing out wildly at anyone. DT learned this from his mentor bully Roy Cohen. His niece exposed the pathological relationship with T Sr and his indulged and bullied upbringing. Chickens coming home to roost.

The death to Hillary rants from others in support of Trump are very serious. He is looking for a scape goat for all of his pain and The core of his base would love to take her down. As everyone laughs and jokes about the emperor having no cloths, they will not hear the the very serious transition from chants of "lock her up" to the terrifying shrieks of "death to Hillary". We have seen what his pumped up hoards are capable of.

More than a fraud, what Mr. Trump and most other sociopaths fear the most is to be branded a L-O-S-E-R.

Although you do have to remember that she has a personal bone to pick with him - the inheritance issue.

True, but she has made many I think valid points about his psychological impairments.

Donald tRump will be Al Caponed, and, like that lizard, serve his term in jail (although Al only did 7 years of 15. Think NY should go for 30.)

I don't think he is capable of being humiliated and feeling it. His instant reaction to negative emotions is to slam back and deflect. Once his head "understands" it's not him, he's back to his version of healthy.
