My take on why the Orange Hellbeast is tearing the People's House apart
I think this is his way of throwing a giant toddler tantrum. Think about it; a LOT of things have NOT being going his way lately. For example:
1. His approval ratings are in the toilet
2. He has failed to lower the costs of groceries (or anything else), and many of the people who voted for him are mad about that
3. His tariffs are playing hell with the U.S. economy and damaging our relationships with other countries
4. American soybean farmers are justifiably angry with him because #3 has led to China deciding not to buy their beans, which may drive them into bankruptcy
5. He did not win the Nobel Peace Prize (I know, it was ridiculous for him to think he might, but he DID think so, and I think not winning was a real blow to his ego)
6. He has not made any headway with ending the war between Russia and Ukraine (and I'd bet money Putin has scolded him severely for not persuading Zelensky to cede big chunks of Ukrainian territory to Russia)
7. Residents, governors, mayors, and state legislatures in blue states with large blue cities are irate about his attempts to militarize their nonexistent violent crime "problem"
8. People all over the country are appalled by and irate about the thuggish, inhumane, and illegal behavior of ICE agents
9. People all over the country are upset and angry about health insurance costs going up and SNAP benefits going down
10. People all over the country are upset and angry about not being listened to by lawmakers whose first loyalty is to the Orange Hellbeast rather than to the constituents they are supposed to serve
11. People all over the country, ESPECIALLY women, are upset and angry about the revocation of Roe v Wade by the conservative supermajority in the Supreme Court (half of whom HE appointed), leading to draconian state laws that are causing unnecessary suffering and even some deaths
12. The government is shut down and thousands of public servants (tens or hundreds of thousands? I can't recall the numbers) are not getting paid
13. Millions of people are participating in mass protests of everything on this list and more, and no matter how adamantly he denies it, WE KNOW it's getting under his skin
~and, lest we forget~
14.That @$%! Epstein scandal (which a lot of people are also mad about) just. Will. Not. Go. Away!
Basically, the guy is in the doghouse with a hell of a lot of people, in this country and abroad, many of whom supported him and voted for him in the past. He hasn't been able to do a lot of things he wants to do, and the things he HAS been able to do have not turned out the way he expected and greatly damaged his standing with various groups, including some of his erstwhile supporters. I can't recall a time when this many people were angry at him for this many different reasons,
Now consider this: As a malignant narcissist, Schlump craves approval more than anything. It's his life's blood; he needs it the way the rest of us need air to breathe - and right now, he's getting less of it than ever. I can't remember a time when this many people were this upset with him about this many different things. He would of course deny that ANY of this is bothering him and often does. Don't believe him. I believe he is very unhappy right now, and for him, being unhappy means looking for someone(s) else to blame and lashing out at in rage at his chosen scapegoat(s). This time is no different, except that the amount of DISapproval he's getting is on such a massive scale that he doesn't know which way to turn. I suspect he's being pushed to his limit and losing his already limited marbles as a result.
Pointing fingers at some person or other entity just isn't going to cut it right now. I think he's focusing on his precious ballroom problem as a distraction, and he's taking his narcissistic rage out on the White House itself. I'd bet money that what we are seeing in those horrifying demolition photos is the result of an elderly, overgrown toddler throwing a gigantic toddler tantrum on an epic scale.
I know not everyone will agree. That's the way the ball bounces. I'm just sharing what I believe I'm seeing.

Too bad he had to pick on Our White House to use as a scapegoat.
What he's doing there is beyond horrible.
