"He's a race-baiting, xenophobic, religious bigot." -Lindsey Graham
"A narcissist at a level that I don't think this country has ever seen." -Ted Cruz
"The thing about Donald Trump is that he lacks the character and the moral center we desperately need again in the White House." -Mike Johnson
"We're on the verge of having someone take over the conservative movement who is a con artist." - Marco Rubio
"There's no question, none, that President Trump is practically and morally responsible for provoking the events of [January 6, 2021]." -Mitch McConnell

This is just a small sample of critical statements from a few top Republicans about Donald J. Trump. Unbelievably, all would later support him, and three have even been considered to serve in the new Trump administration.
To say the GOP has become so dysfunctional would be an understatement.
I would like to think there's still some human decency left in the world and that most American voters are intelligent and good human beings. But like countless millions of Americans and people around the world, I could not believe Trump won the 2024 primary election.
After all the warning signs, crimes, pathological lying, misinformation, inciting violence, two impeachments, racism, sexual assault, misogyny, and so on, how did this man-child get re-elected!?!
For two days after November 5, 2024, it seemed like I was living in a bad dream. But I had come to accept that stupidity is a pandemic. Just look, for example, at QAnon and all those ridiculous right-wing conspiracy theories.
Now I've seen everything. And I am absolutely appalled and disgusted. Everyone has witnessed Trump's obnoxiously rude, unbelievably unprofessional, and childish behavior.
The documentary #UNFIT: The Psychology of Donald Trump gives interesting insights from psychology experts and people who knew Trump firsthand. But it's also very alarming how Trump is compared to Hitler and Mussolini, and that's not hyperbole.
#UNFIT: The Psychology of Donald Trump tries to end on an optimistic note, but while it's still very relevant today, the documentary film came out in 2020. It may be a bit troubling and depressing to watch now, but it should be a wake-up call for the American people.
