Red flag raised over prospect of 'cornered' Trump after midterm losses

President Donald Trump will continue to cause havoc in the Oval Office even if the Republican Party suffers massive losses at the midterm elections as expected, an expert has warned.

Dr. John Gartner believes that Trump is more like an animal at this point in his presidency, and will lash out at anything and everyone. He told The Daily Beast, "A cornered, wounded animal is the most vicious and dangerous kind of animal there is, and that’s where he is right now.

"So what I’m worried about is, even if we win both houses of Congress, he’s still the commander in chief, and he’s still getting off on the omnipotent destructiveness and power of blowing things up."

Gartner went on to suggest that any thought Trump now has is what he believes, even if it is completely false. He said, "It’s kind of the most primitive type of thinking, where if you imagine it, it must be true. But this is just magical thinking. Anything that occurs to him—any stray, crazy thought—is true.

"His grandiosity is so extreme that not only does he want to be the Pope and Jesus and the president of Venezuela and the Mullah of Iran—he wants to be all of these things at once. He wants the world to worship him, and he wants to erect massive monuments to praise himself."

Trump posted an AI-generated image depicting himself as Jesus Christ to Truth Social, triggering immediate backlash from religious leaders and political figures across the spectrum.

The image showed Trump in white robes with celestial light emanating from his hands as he healed a sick man.

Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene called it "an Antichrist spirit," while conservative journalist Megan Basham demanded he "ask for forgiveness from the American people and then from God." After swift criticism, Trump deleted the post and claimed he thought it made him look like a doctor.
