(THREAD) This is a thread about Donald Trump. If what it says conforms with how you feel, I hope you'll consider sharing it with others.

1/ We need to never again discuss this man with respect to policy—it's become more than clear in 9 months that he holds no policy positions.

2/ So if you support Donald Trump because of any view you claim he holds, I don't ever want to hear from you again. The man holds no views.

3/ There is no position Donald Trump has ever taken that he has not, at some point in the past or present, taken the opposite position to.

4/ We mustn't ever discuss this man as someone "challenging the system" or any similar bromide. His White House is the most corrupt ever.

5/ Not one story of honorable conduct has emerged from this White House. Instead, it's been lies, deception, corruption, graft, propaganda.

6/ But the most important thing is this: this is the first U.S. president to systematically and willfully terrorize his own populace daily.

7/ His changeability is intended to keep us anxious and on guard. In fact, he's admitted publicly, many times, that this is a tactic of his.

8/ His corruption is equally studied: his business model has always been "get away with what you can," and that's exactly how he's governed.

9/ He saw that he had a GOP Congress—and knew that his worst-case scenario was not getting re-elected to a job that he never really wanted.

10/ That's why he hasn't eliminated his conflicts of interest, delivered on his promises, "drained the swamp," acted as any kind of leader.

11/ His presidency is a criminal enterprise designed to enrich his family and give him the attention his father clearly denied him as a kid.

12/ He has no beliefs, no ambitions, no morals, no principles, no guidelines, no plans, no expectations. He simply needs to sow chaos daily.

13/ What Trump knows better than most is that America is a chaos machine—you feed it and it spits out attention, headlines, sometimes money.

14/ I want to be very clear here: Donald Trump is a toxic human with a toxic public presence and—worst of all—he wants to poison his people.

15/ His reign will go down not just in U.S. history but human history as a reign of uncommon cruelty in the democracies of this millennium.

16/ It's *more* than that he'll go down in our history as the worst president we'll ever have—he'll go down as one of our greatest villains.

17/ Benedict Arnold tried to betray America for a prior sovereign—Trump is trying to *torture* a nation that was good to him his whole life.

18/ Have you noticed a change in your mood since January? I mean a change you can't seem to escape? Anxiety, anger, fear, confusion, doubt?

19/ The most ubiquitous man in your nation is trying to poison you daily—because it gives him power—and no one's stopping him from doing it.

20/ I'm not using hyperbole: you're under attack. A deliberate, unprovoked, systematic, and—yes—evil attack. And it's working. We're losing.

21/ When humans are endangered, confused and hopeless, there are certain things we turn to—all of which Trump is deliberately stealing away.

22/ Our fight or flight instinct—which Trump activates—can be quelled if we're given respite, which is why Trump ensures we have no respite.

23/ That's why his tweets—which are intended to terrorize, and *do*—come in a daily barrage of needless conflict, warmongering, and cruelty.

24/ He must never stop tweeting, because his tweets now activate our culture in a way so *inescapable* that we're almost like his prisoners.

25/ You think he's attacking North Korea in his tweets? No—he's trying to terrorize *you*. The NFL? You. Segments of America? No—all of us.

26/ When humans are confused, we seek the stability of truth, trusted institutions, neighbors. He's destroying those anchors systematically.

27/ "Fake news" isn't about getting re-elected—it's about controlling your fight-or-flight instinct by giving you no safe harbor in "truth."

28/ Every institution we like or trust, he's undermined. The media. Government. Unions. Hell—even the NFL. Veterans (when he feels like it).

29/ He's enabled by the GOP—but he's no Republican. He wants to destroy any politics or politician whose world he's not at the center of.

30/ He's a malignant narcissist, and his *only* ambition is to spread his toxicity nationwide in whichever ways feed his perverse pathology.
