How long do we have to listen to the ramblings of a psychotic old billionaire before somebody finally gives him his night night pills and tells him to shut the fuck up.

Who are we talking about? Because Trump may be psychotic and old, but he is dirt poor

You do know that the lifetime salary for a former president is something like $400,000 a year right? That alone prevents him from being classified as dirt poor, not only that but all of the under the table deals he pulled off as president I'm sure are ensuring that he retains what any normal American would consider to be a substantial amount of wealth.

Although, I do agree with your contention that he is very likely not a billionaire anywhere except on a sheet of paper somewhere, and chances are either he or somebody he employs wrote that sheet of paper specifically to ensure that it said he was a billionaire, so my bad.

The night night pills, for that deep deep sleep.

What's with the sensationalist headline? Trump is angry but there's no reason to think he's "panicking".

Probably because conservatives hate it when their brand of sensationalism is used against them. Turn up the heat and watch them make increasingly hilarious gaffs, which makes for even more headlines.

Not to defend TNR at all, but as I’ve explained many times, MBFC is a joke.

The red on his face is going to end up being from a burst, expired Heinz ketchup packet he keeps on him to have with his well done steaks
