The intelligent " psychopath" like Elon Musk would be fun to watch. No other CEO in American history lied as much as he but he wasn't born in the US.

a psychopathic, lazy, bumbling grifter with money can become President

Trump showed the power of a popular image "branded" by TV, and massive PR fraud that included the web.

Trump successfully attempted, with his significant base of TRUE BELIEVERS, to become a God figure.

"Psychopathic" labels are somewhat political language to explain killers, and could be said about many leaders from Mao, Pol Pot, Bin Laden to perhaps, Dick Cheney. And recently Trump's support of Saudi Arabian genocide in Yemen as well as double-crossing allies in Syria and Iraq resulting in mass avoidable deaths and loss of any hope for a decent life for the survivors.

JMHO

Yes indeed.

Many CEO's are psychopaths or sociopaths. They are able to climb the ladder of success because they do not have a conscience to struggle with.

I saw a lot of them selling real estate.

And they are the favorite type of politician for the Republicans and a lot of their base-lol..

Sort of a requirement :)>.

What the Chump years demonstrate is that a psychopathic, lazy, bumbling grifter with money can become President and almost become a dictator. There are psychopaths in our future who are brilliant and hard working, so we may not be so lucky next time. They see what may be possible, and will act accordingly. The war has not been won, it is just getting started.
