Theres not a lot 1 can do abt this either. There are SOME divisions but not as many as one might like to think & there are an infinite number of fuzzy boundaries ie., as in vaccinations. This is a highly fluid & often volatile life stage to navigate married or single & 2/

things are muddy as hell (this is an area I've researched tracked, and personally experienced as part of that natural child birth community). Women are isolated by society and thats a problem on both the right and the left. Women are vilified & looked down on when they do 3/

THREAD: TRUMP IS A CRIMINAL PSYCHOPATH
I think we've had this exchange B4 yes? Ive said from t/start (despite all who vociferously insisted over& over hes a malignant narcissitic) TRUMP IS A CRIMINAL PSYCHOPATH (whos dementing but that's a diff thread) & have written extensive 1/


threads (see @threadreaderapp) explaining what criminal psychopathy is and why Trump is a criminal psychopath, AKA more formally as Anti-Social Personality Disorder w/Psychopathy (ASPDp).

1) Trump is NOT a Narcissist. He does NOT have NPD and IS NOT a nalignant narcissist 2/

(which BTW isn't even a valid DX, is not in any iteration of the DSM and more importantly IS NOT backed by research)

Lastly (but very importantly) narcissists ARE NOT DRIVEN BY SADISM

2) Trump is NOT a sociopath (someone who due to poverty & social oppression with few if
3/

any other options, is driven to crime to survive; who does not particularly enjoy it but as the only way to survive, become a way of life...eventually you become numb as that's just a fact of life)

4/

3) Trump IS/HAS Anti-Social Personality disorder w/PSYCHOPATHY
which is driven by sadism

i.e. Trump is a PSYCHOPATHIC criminal

Trump IS NOT a sociopath. He does not now nor did he ever need to commit crimes to survuve. TRUMP IS DRIVEN TO CRIME BECAUSE HE ENJOYS 5/

Trump is gonna let the Mueller investigation end all on it's own. It's obvious. All the hysteria of the past 2 weeks about his supposed impending firing of Mueller was a distraction. He was never going to fire Mueller and he's not going to


Mueller's officially end his investigation all on his own and he's gonna say he found no evidence of Trump campaign/Russian collusion during the 2016 election.

Democrats & DNC Media are going to LITERALLY have nothing coherent to say in response to that.

Mueller's team was 100% partisan.

That's why it's brilliant. NOBODY will be able to claim this team of partisan Democrats didn't go the EXTRA 20 MILES looking for ANY evidence they could find of Trump campaign/Russian collusion during the 2016 election

They looked high.

They looked low.

They looked underneath every rock, behind every tree, into every bush.

And they found...NOTHING.

Those saying Mueller will file obstruction charges against Trump: laughable.

What documents did Trump tell the Mueller team it couldn't have? What witnesses were withheld and never interviewed?

THERE WEREN'T ANY.

Mueller got full 100% cooperation as the record will show.
