Would a bit of LSD do Trump some good?

[KingOrfeo]

A neuroscientist writes:

Since it distorts his reality, clouds his judgment, and gets in the way of his work as President, Donald Trump’s biggest enemy is his ego.

But what if we could temporarily dismantle that ego, allowing Donald to see the world more closely to how it really is? To see that it doesn’t revolve around him?

<snip>

“Ego dissolution,” a term used by psychologists and neuroscientists, occurs when the sense of a boundary between oneself and the outside world fades, creating the feeling of a profound interconnectedness and unity with reality. When LSD causes the ego to dissolve, one undergoes a complete loss of subjective self-identity, which rejiggers how you relate to reality.

This often leads to spiritual or metaphysical experiences that help reframe life priorities, beliefs, and worldviews. And if there’s anything that Donald Trump needs, it’s a reframing of priorities. A microdose of LSD may be all that’s required for him to see that constantly monitoring TV and media for mentions of himself is not more important than attending national security briefings. It may allow him to see reality from other viewpoints, like those held by the Muslim refugees and Mexican immigrants he’s working so hard to keep out, who only want a chance at a better life.

If the Eggo dissolves, who eats it?

He makes the rest of us feel like we're on LSD.

Everyone can benefit from trying LSD once. It changes you. For the better. All though the extent may be quite relative.

Couldn't hurt.

The Trump White House is a well organized machine.

Keep having your circle jerk with yourself and your imaginary friends, Rory.

His approval is up to 55% and rising. You folks are talking to yourselves.

No he doesn't. Only the 24% minority of liberal morons who have convinced themselves they are the majority.

A bit? How about an overdose? For America.

Don't know if there's even such thing.

40%. 21 points below average at the one-month mark.

From your last two posts, I'm convinced you've had a double shot of LSD.
