Conservative George Conway: Donald Trump is a narcissist and a sociopath. Here's the proof
Hey friends, I’ve been saying it for years: Donald Trump is a sociopath. It’s obvious when you listen to him speak for five minutes, or watch the deranged way he treats the people around him. But let’s take the time to go over, step by step, how Trump fits the established medical criteria, just to [...

I’m putting copy of this comment at the top because it seems not to be obvious to everyone
Trump did his damnest to fire the Attorney General but he had not purged the Justice Department of people with integrity who would overturn the election.
Project 2025 is already recruiting henchmen to fill the departments.
His Schedule F changes are explicitly designed to enable this.
He is not joking when he says that he is going to seek revenge on his enemies.
There will be no democracy if he is elected. This is not a drill.
Now this is a cause I can get behind.
And it doesn't (and shouldn't) stop with Trump. He's the most brazen psychopath in American politics at the moment (and potentially ever), and he's clearly the most significant current threat, but he's far from the only one.
And I would say that our future very obviously depends on not only keeping him, but all of them, out of office.
Is George Conway really a conservative? I thought his wife was the conservative.
He is definitely conservative. But he understands that we will not ever get to vote again if Trump gets reelelected.
Trump is not a conservative.
Edit: it is his ex wife
But he understands that we will not ever get to vote again if Trump gets reelelected.
Are you basing this on that recurring joke Trump keeps making at his Christian rallies about "never having to vote again after this election"? It's pretty obvious he is saying that because he is trying to mobilise as many Christian voters as possible, not because he has some grand plan to become a lifelong dictator. Earlier versions of the joke were less scripted and based off this idiotic misconception Trump has that Christians don't vote (they are actually overrepresented when compared to their percentage of the electorate).
He will try to rig the country as much as possible during his second term to favour his businesses and then disappear completely. He doesn't give a fuck about Republicans, Republican voters, or running the country. This is all just about personal greed and hubris (he needs another win to counteract the 2020 loss). Democrats and Never Trumpers are running a scare campaign about "the end of democracy" because they know it will mobilise their base, but don't mistake all this hysteria for genuine evidence that 2024 could be the final election in US history.
