New York Times Keynesian economics columnist Paul Krugman as has been having a hard time ever since Donald J. Trump was elected President in November 2016.

However, the "conscience of liberalism" told Twitter today that he is "terrified" and suffering from a “state of existential dread.”

Primarily because, as Krugman puts forth in a bizarre theory, Trump "enjoys seeing others hurt."

Krugman believes the 45th President may soon be impeached or removed from office by the 25th amendment. Because of that, the President has nothing left to lose.

"He can't save his presidency. He can, however, still hurt a lot of people. And he surely wants to," Krugman told Twitter

Don’t people SEE this? The measure of the degradation of our Culture as epitomized by Paul Krugman ACTUALLY BELIEVING as this story indicates? This isn’t some 19 yr old in a Berkeley dorm somewhere. This amounts to ABSOLUTE delusion; and there are millions of them...

I would suggest a self-injected 230 grain dose of lead and copper at about 900 fps.

Krugman, and so many others whose stature is defined by leftist politics didn't care at all about the very large number of Americans who woke up every day for the last eight years feeling that the America they love was being transformed into something unrecognizable.

——I haven’t words to describe how happy that makes me! ——

Krugman is a vile dishonest piece of work....

His mental anguish is music to my ears...

——This guy has a Nobel prize?——

Don’t let that fool you, it’s for a small specialized area of international economics.

Nothing to do with actual general economic theory which he is clueless.

The left acts as if a Nobel Prize makes you beyond reproach and above criticism which he believes he is.

Krugman’s tweets might indicate that he is manically depressed or suffering from a mental disorder. A couple weeks ago he hallucinated cholera in Puerto Rico.
__________________________________________________________
Krugman’s worldview is clashing with realilty, and he cannot deal with it rationally.

His solution: Deny reality.

It is what most people do when it is demonstrated that there assumptions about the nature of reality are false.

Talk about delusional. These deranged Leftists think they are entitled to have a Leftist president. They have money and can move to another country. They will not be missed.

Krugman uses twitter to get his message out, but Trump is supposed to rely solely on the MSM in order to be seen as “presidential.”

First, attempts were made to subvert the Electoral college. That did not work. Next it was the Russian collusion hoax. That did not work. Now it is an attempt to build momentum for a 25th Amendment impeachment.

Soon we will wake up one morning to the news that the entire MSM has announced that Trump has been authoritatively declared unfit for office. automatically triggering the 25th Amendment.

I wish that the Republican Congress had ten percent of the fight the Leftists have.

I don't know if Trump enjoys it, but I most certainly enjoy seeing people like Krugman flailing about in misery about the state of our politics. Welcome to my world for the last eight years. Enjoy the payback, you scumbag.

Krugman believes the 45th President may soon be impeached or removed from office by the 25th amendment. Because of that, the President has nothing left to lose.

So he is not only butthurt, he is also delusional. Good!
