This nation is currently living through a state of civil unrest, the likes of which we have never, seen as countless pro-Trump protesters stormed, and continue to storm, this nation’s Capitol as Congress was trying to count and certify the Electoral College votes for the 2020 presidential election. These predominantly white individuals quite literally broke the doors of the country’s most important structure and forced their way into the Capitol building, breaking and entering the House Speakers office, and even resulting in one participant who was shot and killed.
Frankly, it’s an act of tyranny and domestic terrorism that I’ve never before witnessed in my life — And don’t you dare come at me saying “But BLM and ANTIFA!” because being mad that your candidate lost his ass in an election and being soul-sick of watching your fellow human beings murdered in the streets for little more than the color of their skin is not the same thing. Period. Full stop.
But here we are, hours into this violence and destruction, and all Donald Trump has managed to do is earn himself a 12-hour ban on Twitter after they had to remove 3 of his tweets. Even when D.C. National Guard was finally deployed, it was done so by Vice President Mike Pence, NOT Donald Trump.
And we may know why.

CNN’s White House correspondent Jim Acosta reported this evening on something a source inside the White House, with close ties to Donald Trump, told him, and frankly, it makes perfect sense.
“I will tell you, Jake, I talked to a source, a GOP source close to the president who speaks with him regularly, and I take no pleasure in reporting this” Acosta told Jake Tapper and the world, “but this source tells me that he believes the president is out of his mind.”

According to Acosta’s source, Trump is so “traumatized” by his loss in the election that he literally cannot focus on anything else. He’s gone crazy.
I have been saying for weeks and weeks now — this loss, this election debacle, is all that Donald Trump gives a single damn about. Do you believe me now?
