  Donald Trump is a "stable genius" of sorts. He is a genius at lying and disinformation. Until he is caught on tape, of course. His facility with lying is impressive. He is all about "winning" and "winning" is about getting what he wants, be it power, admiration, money, or indulging himself with sex or food.

Now the Trump base adopted the same attitude, which seriously threatens democracy and the rule of law. The US Constitution has not been this threatened since the Civil War. And again the fault lines...
