Here are the results of our “Trump Desperation or Stupidity?" poll. Politics Plus Polls are not scientific, because those who respond are not balanced according to demographic categories. Therefore, we do not accurately reflect the makeup of the US population. Nevertheless, our polls are usually factually accurate, and more often than not, they reflect thinking of the majority of those who actually do think.
And here are your comments:

Both Stupidly & Desperation. Unfortunately, this was not an answer available. sigh…

Went with mostly desperation because I think he feels the walls closing in and knows he is caught, that it’s a matter of time before all that’s he’s done is public and he ends up in prison. Though he is indeed stupid. He’s more like a cornered rat to me right now.

I voted all stupidity because that is how he handles everything, IN My Opinion.

Mostly stupidity. Because is a stupid old man.

I vote for "All stupidity," thinking of the Dunning-Kreuger Effect," in which one is too dumb to know how dumb he/she is. Add this to his grandiosity, and you have a wonderful recipe for supreme idiocy!

Trump has to be the most idiotic US President of all time.

I am 50/50. Drumpf is so full of BS, he does not know if he is punched, bored or stapled! He thinks he is invincible, just like the narcissist he is. But I believe he is desperate too because he is like a dog with a bone . . . he keeps gnawing on various bones as if that will change things. And some of those bones are totally irrational. He can’t be gone soon enough!!!

50/50, I think he is incredibly stupid!

Oh, I’m in the minority here. I went with total desperation because that’s what I see. I think he knows the walls are closing in on him and it shows in his increasingly unhinged tweets. Still mean as a snake though, no insult intended to snakes.

Like anyone with mental disorders (yes, plural) Drumpf has days of some lucidity and on those days he realizes he’s in deep sh$t and acts in desperation because he hasn’t a clue what to do about it. Can’t call another bankruptcy, close the door and leave others to clean up the mess, right? On other days, his insanity/dementia takes over and he truly believes himself above the law. I have no idea what the ratio between lucid and insane days is, but at the moment it seems about 50/50. But that could swing either way at any moment.

Desperation – at least over 90%.
He’s done this $hit for decades and has gotten away with it.
He knows he’s a cornered animal & the walls are closing in – and he doesn’t have a CLUE on what to do other than what’s worked in the past: LIE his ass off & incite violence & try to change the topic.

This is a difficult question. I picked equally because I think he is running scared but he also thinks he is above the law.

Good question. Settled for equally.
So many negative behaviors emanating from him, and his complete disregard for the office of the President. Shameful behavior, and the more this investigation uncovers, the more desperate he will become.

I say 50/50. He’s too stupid to realize just how much trouble he’s in and to the extent he’s broken laws. All kinds of laws.
Desperation because he can’t threaten to sue his way out of the situation he’s in.

Wow, this is a good one. I actually think it’s probably a little more one than the other, but I have no idea how much or even which way. Or maybe I shouldn’t say I have NO idea – I have plenty of ideas, but I keep changing them around. So I just settled for both equally.
I voted Most desperation. He is incompetent because he is a psychotic sociopath. Nevertheless he is cunning in the most malignant sense of the word.
The new poll is up. Don’t forget to vote in it.
RESIST!!
VOTE BLUE!!
36 DAYS!!

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Well, I see I was not alone. I’m not sure you have a conclusive result, because enough of us who voted 50-50 did so because we weren’t sure, or thought it fluctuates. It’s interesting … but in the end it may not matter.
The new one is interesting too.
The reason doesn’t matter one fig. The Orange Ogre is a disgrace to this country – a paranoid, childish banana brain who couldn’t organize a beer bust in a brewpub. He has made the “great” USA a laughingstock.
I’ve said it many times, and I will keep saying it: Make sure you are registered to vote, make sure all your progressive 18-and-older kith and kin are registered, volunteer to help at registration drives, do your homework on candidates, offer to drive people to the polls, and above all, VOTE!!! Cast an informed ballot, and keep right on raising hell clean to the ionosphere, because that is the only way we can turn this country around.
I put in this reply, “Both Stupidly & Desperation. Unfortunately, this was not an answer available. sigh…”
Looks like the answer was there in place all this time. Guess I read it wrong… Big sigh… The answer should have been “Both equally”. oh well… another sigh… lol.

Most voted “equally”, but only time will tell how that pans out after the midterms. Drumpf can’t get any more stupid than he already is, or at least not much more, but he can get a lot more desperate. The question is at what levels the mixture of both is the most toxic. To him.
i think i voted ‘equally’ too!
Voted in the new poll – ‘Voted down’… wishful thinking from moi!!!
I voted 50/50 but in actuality, the percentages vary from day to day. The narcissist that he is, does not allow him to see just how ignorant and stupid he really is. And as things don’t happen as he wants, he grows more desperate.
After the midterms, assuming there is a big blue wave, it will be interesting to see how he copes with Democrats. Certainly right now, he is calling them crooks and liars. I imagine he’ll rule (he does not govern) by fiat without regard to the Congress . . . or at least he will try. He can’t be gone soon enough!
Thanks all. Hugs. I’m in the minority.
