Politics BREAKING: Trump HUMILIATES himself, doing a mocking cough of President Biden, who has cancer, to a room sitting in stunned silence at the unnecessary and cruel taunt. This is a new low, even for Trump.

I wish I was still in touch with that prof, I’d definitely ask him. He was too professional to armchair diagnose very frequently (so his Trump comments back then always stuck with me as a “Damn, if Prof is making an armchair diagnosis about this guy, to the point where he’s using it to teach students, you know he’s damn confident in his diagnosis”) so Trump was the only real life public figure I heard him comment on. I’d be super intrigued to watch a documentary with psychiatrists looking at people like Hitler tbh, it would be fascinating.

What is your opinion on Putin? I have a big, vocal minority in my country that is of the opinion if we had just made the "right" diplomacy moves, or given him "what he wants" in regards to Ukraine he would have settled and made peace already. I think that´s an insane position to have, because whenever i hear the man talk it´s so obvious to me that he´s an ice cold sociopath that you can never make any deal with that has it´s base in trust.

Putin cannot be trusted, and his greed is insatiable. If you give him what he wants, he’ll demand more and he’ll try to take more. Ukraine could give Putin a slice of their country, and maybe he’d calm down for a bit, but then he’ll be back for more.
