Tom Nichols Noticed Something About Trump That Nobody In The Media Will Say Out Loud




May 8, 2026 #TruthMatters #DemocracyDefenders #IndependentMedia

Tom Nichols of The Atlantic joins Jim Acosta with a warning the mainstream media won't touch. He's seen these behavioral patterns before — up close, in someone he loved — and what he's watching from this president has him alarmed. There's a war happening. Decisions are being made. And the person making them may not be who you think they are. If this was someone in your family, you'd already know what to do.

1. I saw the deterioration in my father before he died. He became meaner, volatile, irrational, & his racist self was

unfiltered. He was always mean but he lost most of the ability to control himself. BUT he still appeared normal at times. Another thing he did was to obsess over the "sun-down" town he grew up in. He would look over his old pictures over and over again.

5. I call BS on the media's silence 'because diagnosis'.

Diagnosis is stating a cause. You literally can't do that without a personal face-to-face exam, usually with actual tests involved.

However, you can say all over the place that "This is not normal. This is wrong. I don't know exactly what's going on here or why, but we need to find out and, in the meantime, keep it from having disastrous consequences.

That's too many words. But the media can and should scream from the rooftops daily "Look at this, this is happening, this is wrong, this is not normal.

That's allowed. They're not doing their job and I will never, ever, forgive them.

and point out that repeating these tests mean they’re not dx’ing, they’re monitoring.
they cd also talk about the test. how many questions is it? is it actually hard?

of the U.S, Russia, North Korea, Israel are all malignant narcissists, and extremely sadistic psychopaths. All possessing vast amounts of Nuclear Weapons. What could possibly go wrong????????????

They all, in my opinion possess another disturbing, potential psychological facet threat: IF I GO, ......YOU ALL WILL GO ALONG WITH ME....
an attitude of: I'LL SHOW YOU.............

Hence the old nuclear missile adage: If ONE goes, they ALL go.......
