    “Why can’t a narcissist who is also an extremely racist person with basically zero impulse control stop himself from alienating black voters?”

    I mean, I don’t know, seems confusing to me. /s

    This is literally who Trump has always been and now that he’s spinning into dementia just like his father, his impulse control has worsened.

    In 1989, this guy took out a full page ad to attack the Central Park Five and demand the death penalty for them. He still refuses to apologize, despite their long-proven innocence.

    “You have people on both sides of that,” he said at the White House. “They admitted their guilt.”

    “If you look at Linda Fairstein and if you look at some of the prosecutors, they think that the city never should have settled that case — so we’ll leave it at that,” he added, referring to the former prosecutor who was running the Manhattan district attorney’s sex crimes unit at the time.

    This is who he has always been. At this point, he literally cannot stop himself, because of total lack of impulse control.

    EDIT: Don’t let it be lost on you that a convicted rapist wanted the death penalty for a rape crime. It’s always projection.
