Trump said, "it will be a smooth transition this time."

Pfft.

I thought it was also interesting how he said "politics is not a very nice world". Like, I could envision him blowing off his decision to annihilate a population center with equal reflection of his actions. "Oh well, this is what happens when you…"

OMG! He actually said that. I can't believe I picked it up, spot on:

"These are the things and events that happen when a sacred landslide election victory is so unceremoniously & viciously stripped away from great patriots who have been badly & unfairly treated for so long. Go home with love & in peace. Remember this day forever!"

He assigns his behavior to something else, doesn't take responsibility for himself.
It's very dangerous, because his behavior is his own making. He throws a fit, makes a mess, but it's simply "what happens". Like, oh well, it's the nature of the beast, not me.

He's a very dangerous man.
