Salon columist Chauncey DeVega in the introduction to his interview with Kenneth McCallion, a former Justice Department prosecutor who also worked for the New York attorney general’s office as a prosecutor on Trump-related racketeering cases which focused on the trial, wrote the following:
Trump’s criminal trials are almost guaranteed to be a spectacle given his bombastic temperament, egomania and megalomania, mastery of stagecraft and propaganda, and what is in total a disagreeable personality that borders on the sociopathic if not psychopathic.
I think this single masterfull sentence pretty much sums up who Trump is.
I doubt Fred Sanford would be so eurdite in describing Trump. If he ever met him he might say “I could push your face in some dough and make gorilla cookies!” like he did in this famous scene.
DeVega is one of my favorite columnists and has been in the forefront of writing, first about Trump’s psychopatholpogy describing his malignant narcisism, and more recently writing about signs he is in the early stages of dementia. He has interviewed many experts including Duty to Warn founder Dr. John Gartner, PhD, psychoanlyst Lance Dodes, MD, editor of The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump forensic psychiatrist Bandy Lee, MD, and even yours truly.
