How Trump Made Being a Psychopath Fashionable
Thom plus logo Trump's tribe of psychopaths are finding each other & coming together in armed groups, plotting revenge against a society they feel has unfairly tried to constrain their selfish impulses & behaviors

My friend and colleague on SiriusXM radio, Dean Obeidallah, reminded me yesterday when we were chatting on his show that he pointed out last week that “air rage” incidents have exploded this year. He wrote a great op-ed about it for CNN here.

The FAA says there have been 2900 reports of air rage since the first of the year, and 2200 of those involved people becoming enraged over mask requirements.

And we're not just seeing it on airplanes. Road rage is up, people challenging (and, yesterday, murdering) retail workers is up, even mass shootings are up right now.
