AIBU to think Trump appears increasingly unhinged?

Are you concerned that Trump has totally lost his marbles?

Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP

And yet our government are still supporting him USA bombers from from UK bases) and sending (not my) king to cosy to cosy up to him.

US and UK governments both captured by Epstein - Mandleson/MacSweeney controlling Starmer. Have just read brilliant a book called "The Fraud" about Starmer).

Bet our Government will not withdraw USA support even if he does nuke Iran.

This is what happens when people with no political experience are allowed into top politics jobs. Business and politics simply don't work in the same way, and you can't apply to same ways of working. Trump is dangerously unhinged.

The one thing that makes me think he won’t drop a bomb is because he wants to stay alive. Hopefully the same thing will stop Putin from dropping one - Putin wanting to stay alive.

I think he’s so delusional he won’t think about it impacting him. I bet inchis mind (if he even thinks about it), his wealth will insulate him. Putin, as awful as he is, has all the cunning you’d expect from a former KGB agent. Trump is thick as fuck, and surrounded by men who are equally as dense.

I cannot fathom for the life of me why NOBODY in his administration isn't saying what the fuck is going on?
These are not the ramblings of a sound mind.
Somebody, anybody needs to step in now.

Oh he’s sacked all those. Anyone who might offer an alternative viewpoint.

The fact that a man behind an ongoing war contributing to many lives lost, and economic crisis has time to tweet insults about a musician just blew my mind.

I think it’s the legal logistics of the US bases which means we have to let the US use them. It’s patently daft to say Mandelson controls Starmer. I don’t disagree that KC going to the States is a bad look, but I suspect they’re aiming for soft power/influence given how much Trump loves the royals. We are too connected/infected by the States to simply drop all ties.

Orangebadger · 05/04/2026 15:34

Yep totally agree. I am just baffled why there has not been some kind of official intervention to stop him!

Wallywobbles · 05/04/2026 15:35

Did he ever appear arranged?

pinotnow · 05/04/2026 15:35

Trust someone to come along and make it about Keir Starmer 🙄.

I know Trump has surrounded himself by total numpties but surely there is some sort of mechanism for this? Isn't there anything the Democrats can do or people involved in government who aren't political - whatever equivalent they have to the civil service?

NooNakedJacuzziness · 05/04/2026 15:35

I’m reading these statements in the voice of Grandpa Simpson, makes it about 1% less worrying

Charalam · 05/04/2026 15:36

This speech from a politician in France sums him up perfectly.

“We posted angry threats to other nations, as was the fashion at the time”.

I think KC will have a strategic illness.
I hope so anyway.

Deadringer · 05/04/2026 15:37

Absofuckinglutely! I am re-watching The Handmaid's Tale and it is starting to feel like a lot of it could actually happen in the western world with nuts like Trump in charge.

That's absolutely ridiculous. He sounds like a ten year old. Is he about to add "and he's a smelly bumbum"?

PandoraSocks · 05/04/2026 15:42

Trump has now said he believes he can reach a deal with Iran by Monday.

Winewolfhywls · 05/04/2026 15:42

I actually thought this message was a hoax, but no. Disgraceful.

I don't understand how he hasn't had some form of 'accident' by now, or been forced to resign due to ill health, as it is it will take years for the US economy and international reputation to repair itself.
I really really hope he doesn't have the power to drop a nuke.

wordler · 05/04/2026 15:42

I’m concerned that that is not Trump at all but blood thirsty Miller or Hegseth who will try to claim it wasn’t them at all when this administration fails and the war crimes trials begin.

Nnnnin · 05/04/2026 15:43

Yup. YANBU. Initially I supported him after the Gaza peace plan..this is all wrong..and I realise he's so unhinged and dangerous. I can't believe it. I wholeheartedly admit he's wrong and he's a madman

The 25th amendment could potentially be used but it would be challenging.

It's explained in this short.

I get Ian Dunt's substack. I really recommend it.

Anyway, he pointed out that, yes, Trump is clearly deranged, mental, suffers from cognitive decline, etc. Obviously. But it is his toxicity, rasism and narcissism all combined that makes him so dangerous.

He (or Steven miller) has managed to outmanover the American "checks and balances". What could result from his term is scary.

I live in a country that built bomb shelters as default in new builds during the cold War period. They are now being brought up to modern standards and numbers assessed for the current size of the population.

Bunkins · 05/04/2026 15:46

He's a felon, pedophile, racist, womaniser, con artist. I saw this coming years ago. He's a certified psychopath. Megalomaniac.

Momtotwokids · 05/04/2026 15:47

Worry about your own country. We just had a president with dementia and now this. Hopefully next president will be normal.

He's being driven even more demented by the the fact that he can't control the Iranian response to what's happening.

Sorry, what? How do we not worry about the actions of your president, which have a global impact?
