Lawrence: Trump was 'on the verge of outright insanity' in deranged speech to military commanders - The Last Word - MSNBC



MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell details how military commanders who listened to Donald Trump’s “deranged” speech have to be wondering “just how much more dangerous their jobs are now that they've seen just how lost and sick their Commander-in-Chief is.” - Aired on 09/30/2025.

it's that Trump's 'speech' may have convinced the brass that ignoring an order from him to launch an unprovoked attack on another country would be their duty.

I'd planned to watch his show tonight but got distracted. I was hoping to see it on DU!

I wish Lawrence would have Nadya (Pussy Riot) on again. He really likes amd respects her, too.

And I post Lawrence O'Donnell every night he's on, he really is the best! Plus, I hate to miss it and I know that many DUers feel the same.

today when I tried to make sense of the gibberish coming out of his orange, spackled blob of a "face?". The thing is is that it DOES NOT MAKE SENSE!!! You could go over his ramblings with a fine toothed comb and you still would come up with nothing.

I never fully appreciated the term "word salad" until today.

When I watched Lawrence I said out loud, "PLEEEEEEEEEASE DIE ON LIVE TV!!!". I think Lawrence would love to see that as well.

He usually delivers his news calmly, no matter what's going on, but tonight he actually raised his voice. And who could blame him?? Yikes!

And he was articulate and clear. That's why I wanted to see his show.
I could NEVER do his job since every sentence I speak that is related to tRump has 4-letter words.
