1. Trump seems more encouraged whenever

it is explained to him that the damage he can cause is greater than he first realized.

So he takes on an enormous position in S&P put options and make a huge chunk of change by trying to fire Powell.

2. He regularly sees violating laws as a challenge, the more outrageous the better

And so far he's managed to avoid imprisonment that others would have faced for years, 34 felonies, adjudicated rapist, stealing boxes of classified documents and causing an insurrection to overthrow the government in which law enforcement were severely injured and killed. And he still owes millions to E. Jean Carroll and to the State of New York. And now he's working to destroy our 249-year-old democracy. From my perspective, he's way overdue...

3. 312 electoral college votes with only 49.8% of the popular.

What a phony "mandate."

Kooks and crackpots installed as his evil elves.

It's really quite appalling.
