Does he think those 'you did me wrong' posts have any impact?

Sundowning, bed time meds not working.

In the real world, on this forum and others, such a tirade would earn the poster a major posts delete and permanent ban.

Not in American politics, it seems.

The sufferer is prone to bouts of hyperactivity, always in the small hours of the morning, and doses all daylight time to compensate.

(Wife has dementia. Wakes me up at 1 am, 3 am, 7 am to tell me something highly important to her. Then doses most of the day.)

Afraid his many enemies want to do him wrong. (They do.)

But a massive rant on 'social' media won't help.

It just reinforces the idea he has lost the plot and isn't coping.

Whatever he was expecting from the POTUS job, be it global admiration, immortality, untold riches - it isn't happening for him.

I feel sorry for anyone whose ambitions far outstrip their talents, because disaster awaits them.
Not in this case though. No sympathy from me.
