Trump is weak
Weak people don't like to acknowledge their weaknesses because they are not strong enough to withstand the truth. But if they don't acknowledge where they are weak, they can't improve. Their self-worth needs to be reinforced by other people.
We are seeing these character flaws play out catastrophically with Donald Trump. He is vain, shallow, uninformed and endlessly preoccupied with how he appears: not how most people actually see him, but how he thinks they see him. Whenever he is criticized it is "fake news".
This weekend, July 4th, he again risked the lives of his followers who attended his events with no social distancing. His need for adoration leads him to appeal to the most fringe elements which are still with him. The idea of putting his face next to the great American presidents at Mt. Rushmore is beyond deluded.
Trump will continue to inflame his base because they make him feel powerful. He totally depends on their love and adoration. It is a need of a weak man who needs propping up. He will continue to be destructive to the country. Chances are that he will only escalate, as he looks more and more as a total failure.
Astrologically we have entered a period when transiting Mars is in Aries. Mars is at its most impetuous and direct in Aries. The transiting Mars will conjunct Trump's Eris, the planet of discord and strife, around July 9th. We could see an extra explosion of destructive behavior on his part.
Why is Trump so weak? Is there an Astrological explanation?
His Natal Chart with transiting planets for July 9 is shown below.
The weak point in Trump's natal chart is Venus conjunction Saturn. Saturn indicates the area of life where we feel most limited. Saturn in 11th House indicates that for Trump this has to do with friends and groups of people. This need for support from people to prop him up certainly shows in his behavior. The quincunx of these planets to the Moon (unconscious feelings) also show that he feels this need in regard to family too (4th House). In Trump we have a weak and needy president who needs a lot of propping up.

Excerpts from Mary L. Trump's book are appearing in the media. Her words strongly parallel ideas presented in this blog. Mary writes:"...Donald is not simply weak, his ego is a fragile thing that must be bolstered every moment because he knows deep down that he is nothing of what he claims to be. He knows he has never been loved."
The emotional deprivations from Donald Trump's childhood, which Mary l. Trump describes, are exacerbated by his emotional make-up, astrologically described as Venus- Saturn and Mars-Saturn challenging aspects. He feels these wounds more deeply than most people would feel. Mary warns us: "He has suffered mightily and if you aren't doing all you can to alleviate that suffering, you should suffer too."

Today Trump's Eris, the source of his most outrageous behavior, was disciplined by transiting Mars in the form of action taken by the Supreme Court. Trump's taxes, which are likely full of illegalities can become public. Trump's been raging on Tweeter that this was "not fair", that it was "political persecution" and "prosecutorial misconduct". Astrologically, this momentous decision coincided with the exact conjunction.
