Ronnie Reagan calls Trump 'deeply damaged'

President Reagan's son, Ron Reagan, a devout liberal and atheist, a former ballet dancer and failed talk show host, ripped into President Trump, calling him a "deeply damaged human being" adding that he must be removed from the White House. 

It appears that Ronnie wants Trump's removal not by the vote of the people, but by impeachment in the absence of high crimes and misdemeanors.

Reagan, now leftist radio host, told MSNBC that Trump is a disgrace to the office his father once held.

Host Chris "Tingles" Matthews went after Trump for what he said was self-aggrandizement and complimenting his own intelligence. While I thought that was kind of tacky and not an intelligent thing to do, it was very Trump-ish and not surprising.

Reagan said Trump showed incivility by inserting himself in the situation of the wife of the soldier killed in Niger. 

I think Ronnie's wrong. 

It's highly likely that Myeshia Johnson was never a Trump supporter and I suspect when Rep. Frederica Wilson sat in her car when Trump called to give Ms. Johnson his condolences, that Wilson helped convince her that Trump was being insensitive when he said 'He knew what he was getting into'.

There's no way Trump would have called to insult her. It makes no sense whatsoever, but I can hear Wilson under one of her stupid hats, "Say what? He's saying your husband knew what he was getting into? What nerve."

But Trump most likely meant, "Your husband knew what he was getting into and knew of the danger and he still went. That's what's known as true bravery."

Since when has Trump ever been given honest media coverage?

But back to the Yale dropout, Ron Reagan.

"The central problem is Donald Trump is a deeply damaged human being," Reagan said, calling him a "sociopathic malignant narcissist."

This is the new trend on the left--to have lay people publicly give mental health status diagnoses to people they don't like and generally haven't actually met. It's unfair and unless you're Donald Trump, it can be very stigmatizing.

How does Reagan justify calling Trump a 'sociopathic malignant narcissist'?

Sure, it's likely that U.S. presidents and other world leaders are narcissistic--you almost have to be in order to believe you can run a nation better than the next guy or gal. But malignant narcissism is something else.

"The Electoral College has sort of vomited this thing up and it landed in the Oval Office . . . [like a] big glob on the carpet," Reagan said rather unflatteringly about the President.

Reagan called Trump a "danger to the world" urging the use of the 25th Amendment to impeach him and remove him from office.

Actually, it's Article II, Section 4 that speaks to impeachment:
The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors."
The Twenty-fifth Amendment deals with succession to the Presidency and establishes procedures for filling the vacancy of the Vice President as well as responding to Presidential disabilities, according to Wikipedia.

So the ballet dancing, radio show hosting, liberal atheist, Yale school dropout not only got the psychological stuff wrong, but the legal stuff as well. That isn't to say the 25th Amendment wouldn't be called into play if a President was removed from office, but it's Article II we'd be concerned with, not the 25th Amendment, which was adopted on February 10, 1967.

Reagan also went after Trump for what he considered to be a raunchy speech to the Boy Scouts in West Virginia, this year. He said Trump inappropriately referred to being "on a yacht with women" while making a speech to the organization.

This was Trump, not JFK, Bill Clinton or Harvey Weinstein, so he's fair game to leftist hypocrites--not to say that if Trump was being inappropriate he should be excused from blame because he's Trump. But when the left preaches morality, it's laughable.

"You can't control a president who is pathological in his behavior," the amateur shrink said.

Funny how people on the left, particularly those in the entertainment business, are coming out of the woodwork to try becoming relevant again. 

Sad!
