Because of him?
And what he says and does, and threatens his allies?
That sort of thing.

Vascular dementia could be responsible for the paranoia.
Same with his outlandish claims and demands.
Given the man's extended age, poor diet, and obvious lack of proper sleep.
Combined with the pressure being POTUS.
Happens all the time, and to better men and women than Donald J Trump.

OR ... it could be that he just wants to make a name for himself expanding America and be in the American history books getting 'credit' for it.
Only time will tell.
He definitely doesn't seem too concerned about mid-terms, being so heavy-handed here feels like he has a distinct advantage here, or atleast he thinks he does.

Me to pal.
He's feckin' with our serenity.
Some things should not be broken or pulled apart.
Considering the implications for our very way of life.
Hell of a price to pay so someones name can be remembered.
And im apt to ponder it won't be the way he thinks.

I'd be much less frightened with JD Vance as president. just saying... a lot actually, because he's not much better., but seems WAY more reasonable.
It could be like a MAGA Mandala.
Quote:Amendment XXV
Section 1.
In case of the removal of the President from office or of his death or resignation, the Vice President shall become President.
Section 2.
Whenever there is a vacancy in the office of the Vice President, the President shall nominate a Vice President who shall take office upon confirmation by a majority vote of both Houses of Congress.
Section 3.
Whenever the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that he is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, and until he transmits to them a written declaration to the contrary, such powers and duties shall be discharged by the Vice President as Acting President.
Section 4.
Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.
Thereafter, when the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that no inability exists, he shall resume the powers and duties of his office unless the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive department or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit within four days to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office. Thereupon Congress shall decide the issue, assembling within forty-eight hours for that purpose if not in session. If the Congress, within twenty-one days after receipt of the latter written declaration, or, if Congress is not in session, within twenty-one days after Congress is required to assemble, determines by two-thirds vote of both Houses that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall continue to discharge the same as Acting President; otherwise, the President shall resume the powers and duties of his office.
Maybe, this is all good reason to begin to consider the possibility of having to think about handing it off to JD.
And No, its not insurrection to remind everyone we have an amendment for when the POTUS loses his f*cking mind.

But he is just a junior senator who got promoted to Vice President.
Being Vice President is just being a side kick to the POTUS.
I honestly dont' think he's qualified to be POTUS.
But I'd take him over that plastic hair-gel'd nutbag Newsom.

Severe type of narcissistic personality disorder.
Malignant NarcissismPeople with NPD (Narcissistic Personality Disorder) tend to exhibit grandiose attitudes, feel superior to others, need excessive praise, and react very poorly to even the slightest criticism. Those with ASPD (Antisocial Personality Disorder) lack empathy, disregard the feelings and needs of others, and use or exploit others to meet their needs. Malignant narcissists tend to display a mix of these traits and behaviors, which keep them from forming healthy relationships.
