1. In his first term, he had minders and fluffers who stopped him from making huge gaffs

Or whenever he said something totally stupid (like this example) somebody was there to fluff it over and change the subject.

But in this term all those people are GONE. There's nobody to filter his insane, ignorant remarks, AND the press is hearing all of it. They aren't printing it, but they are recording it and keeping track. They all know he's crazy and there's no way to deny it.

These reporters and pundits will all write books later about the crazy insanity of Chump's 2nd term. Long story short - he's been like this all along, but we weren't hearing the crazy stories before.
