In a typo filled rant, Donald Trump claimed that his mental instability is him changing tones and that Democrats are jealous because they don’t have a crazy leader like him.
Trump tweeted:
The Fake News is now complaining about my different types of back to back speeches. Well, there was Afghanistan (somber), the big Rally…..

Someone at the White House saw Trump’s typo, deleted the original tweet, and replaced it with:
..(enthusiastic, dynamic and fun) and the American Legion – V.A. (respectful and strong). Too bad the Dems have no one who can change tones!

Trump literally believes that changing tones means changing the tone of your voice, because, at the Afghanistan and American Legion speeches, Trump used his serious softer inside teleprompter voice. At his rally, he was the unhinged screamed that the nation has come to know and not love.
Donald Trump has two gears. He can read from a script, or he can rant like a lunatic.
Democrats are happy that they don’t have a crazy person destroying their party with infighting, petty squabbles, incoherency, and paranoia. If Trump had tried to run as a Democrat, he wouldn’t have made it through the door. Only a weak party full of desperate individuals who are caught in the midst of ideological civil war could be hijacked by Trump.
Republicans aren’t lucky to have Trump. He is a bomb throwing anchor that is dragging them down.
