    Jane Fonda urged Americans to express “radical kinship” for Donald Trump and his supporters. “This is a man who was traumatized as a child by his father, who had a mother that didn’t protect him. And the behavior is the language of the wounded,” she saidhttps://www.politico.com/story/2018/09/26/why-jane-fonda-doesnt-hate-donald-trump-840207 …

        1/2 1) The history re: Trump's childhood is speculation. 2) Even if Trump was victimized/neglected as a child, he is responsible for his adult behavior -he has used whatever repressed pain he has to harm others. 3) He merits empathy if he goes to a therapist, NOT from the public.

        2/2 4) There is no evidence he has the capacity to understand or to accept empathy, or to relinquish his sadistic behavioral pattern of humiliating others, even if empathy is offered 5) One can theoretically empathize, but acting on that basis would be co-dependent reinforcement.

        Properly acting on the basis of his behavioral pattern would involve immediately removing #DonaldTrump from any position of authority over others, and as you correctly point out his aversion to seeking help, ordering his adult family to take legal responsibility for his welfare.

        No. NO. You do not get to justify an abusive, manipulative, narcissistic, greedy fucking pig by pulling the "childhood trauma" card. Millions of us are traumatized. Millions of us do not go on to create more victims. That is a CHOICE that we make. He has the same choices.

        i do not think @Janefonda is offering justification or apologetics for #DonaldTrump's horrid acts in office; she is merely asking people to consider a likely origin point for his disorders. Yes he IS responsible for his acts as an adult and #Trump needs therapy, not authority.

        Regardless, the last thing that this atrocious man needs is sympathy, which is also considered "supply" for the #Narcissist. This is not the time to coddle Trump. Not while he is legitimately destroying and abusing your entire country. He is not "crazy". He knows what he is.

        What #DonaldTrump needs is therapy. What #USA and the world collectively needs is for #Trump to be removed from his position of power — he should not be allowed to continue inflicting his disorders upon others.

        Absolutely agree. The problem with Narcissists, Sociopaths and Psychopaths is, they don't believe for a second that they need help or therapy. They are quite seriously without conscience. Being horrible and lacking empathy benefits them greatly. This is the worst part.

        you can discuss harmful individuals without dehumanizing people whose brains work differently. not all narcissists/psychopaths/sociopaths are the way you have described them. in fact, most are not. being evil is choice, not neurodivergence.

        I agree regarding the Sociopath. I disagree regarding the Narcissist. Not enough characters for this one on Twitter lol. My statement though refers specifically to the #Trump variety #Narcissist or #NPD.

        trump is a spoiled, entitled person who sits at the intersection of SEVERAL kyriarchical systems. classism, racism, queer/transantagonism, sexism, ableism, xenophobia, and war benefit him. he chooses to so harm knowing that he is doing harm.

        To Jane Fonda. Donald Trump is well over 18 years old. He has lived many years and had many opportunities to make life changes. He has had opportunity to determine what gets in his way of true successes and real happiness. He chose to remain as is. An insecure abusive bully.

        Sure, fine! I can have empathy for the "wounded". I understand that the person has issues that maybe some psychotherapist can help. I just don't want that "wounded" person to lead the world, nominate people to life term appointments, change peoples lives.

        Exactly. Who is Jane Fonda's manager and how does she not have someone there with her to tell her how weak of an argument she was about to make in front of video cameras. She really had an interview about an argument that could be deconstructed within one minute...
