It is called anal stage and is considered normal for his mental age. > **[Anal stage](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anal_stage)** > > Influential figures applying psychoanalysis > Influential works applying psychoanalysis > The anal stage is the second stage in Sigmund Freud's theory of psychosexual development, taking place approximately between the ages of 18 months and three years. In this stage, the anal erogenous zone becomes the primary focus of the child's libidinal energy. The main social context for the experience is the process of toilet training, where anal pleasure becomes associated with the control of bowel movement... Some people say it gets worse with dementia. ---

I was reminded of another prominent psychologist: > **[Carl Jung And The Enormous Turd](https://www.patheos.com/blogs/thedesertsanctuary/2021/03/carl-jung-and-the-enormous-turd/)** > > Carl Jung, was a Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst who founded analytical psychology.  His influence has existed for a little over 100 years and I > When he allowed his thoughts to return to the golden throne, high above the world, he observed an enormous turd that fell from heaven and shattered the roof and broke the walls of the magnificent cathedral. Although he felt some relief from the troubled feelings he had, he considered the visual and how it might be connected to God’s will. ---

I think this sums up his entire administration. This AI video should be shown on a loop in the future presidential library/coloring book room. ---

> [@Euphonious\_Polemic](#): > > I think this sums up his entire administration. But the thing is, this is not someone else saying that Trump is doing it. It is Trump himself, or his tech lackey, bragging that **he** is the guy who is doing this. This is beyond all conceiving of any president or political leader we’ve had in the past, isn’t it? Was there ever a president who would have done this sort of thing publicly? I could see LBJ saying something like this privately because he was a pretty crude guy. But for the president of the United States to have this posted over his name… It’s unthinkable. If a video was posted over Trump’s name of him flying over Arlington National Cemetery and pouring shit on it, would that get the attention of the generals who sat and listened in silence to his speech? ---

Posting a video of him wearing a crown and dumping shit on Broadway and other dem cities The Gaza/Hamas ceasefire has ceased. Fuck Israel. Buying a fairly/very shity currency to prop them up from having to print billion pesos paper currency. That $40 billion will not only harm the us dollar yet will be worth far less yet during his presidency will never be closed out for $10B or $1B, Can’t the Treasury just print up some more money so the US can buy more?

The Israeli’s have said repeatedly Gaza will not be settled by non-Jews. Maybe they’ve said the same about the West Bank. Mostlly what they’ve said is the Palestinians are welcome and urged to leave. Both areas are absolutely demolished and basically condemned. It will need a total rebuild: equipment and funds; and the Palestinians don’t have it. ---

Besides the hostage trade, what did Israel give in terms of a one or two state “solution”. On the plane, Trump to the press said “Some talk about one-state and others two-state solution” Besides Russia, China, Hungary and Israel of course, who is talking about “one state” and that only means one thing: Only Jews. Trump announced to the government entity of Israel that Hamas will be be neutralised or something like that to a standing ovation. Why would Hamas give up their guns and then get bulldozed into the Sea? What is the “good” endgame of a cease-fire with Hamas the only ones giving up their weapons. ---
