Is anyone else worried about Trump's sanity?

[Fast Walker 52]

I seriously am at this point. This is not hyperbole.

What he's doing is not normal.

I wonder if he's in the early stages of a nervous breakdown.

Fuck his enablers. Fuck Mike Pence. Trump is not fit for public office.

[rjsquirrel]

1. Worried?

The HRC strategy team clearly intends to let him self-destruct in public. It may be our best hope of beating him.

[Fast Walker 52]

6. yeah-- well, it seems he really can't take any criticism... so let's keep it up!

[YvonneCa]

37. And to modify a quote from my favorite President...

... "Don't worry... VOTE!!!"

[unblock]

2. yes, i'm worried that he becomes temporarily sane.

[Fast Walker 52]

7. true...

[Kablooie]

26. If that happened...

All his followers would drop him like a hat rack. -- o

[vi5]

3. No, I'm worried about the sanity of the large amount of people planning on voting for him...

One insane man with no power is meaningless in the big scheme of things. One insane man upon whom millions of Americans want to bestow the highest power and authority in the world is what is truly dangerous.

[Fast Walker 52]

8. True... but at some point, isn't it obvious to most people that he's disturbed?

[vi5]

19. Look at the polls....

Obviously not.

[RKP5637]

55. To us, yes, but to millions no. They are easily lead and lack insight IMO. n/t

[SeattleVet]

56. It doesn't matter to them that he's lost his marbles...

as long as he's either not Hillary, or doesn't have a (D) after his name.

He was right about one thing, though - he probably COULD stand in the middle of Times Square and shoot someone, and not lose some people's votes. Yes, they *are* that delusional and unhinged.

[Fast Walker 52]

61. yes, he got that one right

disgusting how so many Republicans have walled themselves off from any sense of balance and decency

[tawadi]

12. Yes

This is what should concern us.

[True Dough]

59. Seems harsh, but this would address the problem you cite...

[MoonRiver]

4. I've said before that I think he has early stage Alzheimer's.

I don't think he is clinically insane, but his behavior is aggressive, erratic and self-defeating. These are all signs of dementia. I bet the family is keeping the true degree of his disease a secret.

[greymattermom]

9. Well no real physician would have written the medical report he released

It was obviously written by him.

[MoonRiver]

17. He, or his handlers.

These people lie and fabricate "reality" constantly. And unless the family raises alarm bells, doctors don't routinely check for dementia. Obviously their goal is to get him in the White House and then take over. And I don't trust Ivanka one little bit. I think she is the real puppet master over her father. Maybe this is her revenge for childhood abuse. After seeing him put his hands all over her, I do believe abuse happened. But she knows where the money is.

[mopinko]

25. i think so too.

so different from the drumph of years ago, who was a liberal liberal. turning conservative is a common first sign.

[MoonRiver]

33. Not really, but cognitive confusion definitely is.

Rump babbles and rambles like a lunatic, or, somebody with impending Alzheimer's.

[mopinko]

39. like half the audience at faux news

at least half.

srsly, as dementia set in on my mom, she started saying somewhat bigoted things, tho she was never like that before. i used to say about her- she wouldnt say shit if she had a mouthful. that's why i grew up to be a good liberal.

i have heard others say the same thing. the paranoia gets to some.

[MoonRiver]

42. Yes, this is part of the syndrome.

My dad had dementia before he died, but not the behavior problems that frequently come with Alzheimer's.

[SheriffBob]

64. yes, what you said

nt

[Motley13]

5. absolutely

[OhZone]

13. Oh Wow!

I love this song! What a kewl twist on a comedy song. And an interesting group! Thanks for the link.

[Brother Buzz]

22. Trump is channeling side 'B'

[SeattleVet]

57. Good grief! That sounds pretty much like...

a typical Sarah Palin word salad.

[SheriffBob]

65. lol

you got that right.

[lonestarnot]

10. So this morning, no campaign, pence and he on trail in different places, cahootzing with russians,

stealing from veteran's charities, bad mouthing a gold star family and stuck in a fucking elevator oh and the debates are rigged. I'd say he's already shat his golden drawers.

[Fast Walker 52]

21. Indeed

I wonder if it actually finally dawned on him just exactly what he has gotten into.

[Agnosticsherbet]

11. I think It's too late to worry. He is in the midst of a breakdown.

[nruthie]

14. Yes, of course.

[mountain grammy]

15. Absolutely!

[Brother Buzz]

16. Early stages of a nervous breakdown or late stages of syphilis.

Maybe he did actually award himself a Purple Heart during his 'personal Vietnam'.

[Fast Walker 52]

20. Haha-- good thought!

[AgadorSparticus]

18. He really needs to be on some meds or have his dose adjusted.

The word salad has gotten worse. He is really bad right now.

[wiggs]

23. Why the hell aren't comments by his book

Ghost writer getting more play? Phrases like 'sociopath' and 'end of civilization' seem somewhat important imo

[Fast Walker 52]

24. I know!!! There are two reasons I can think of--

1) the media is overwhelmed by Trump's idiocy and can't cover everything

2) the media tries to normalize Trump to make it a close race

[awake]

27. My worry is that Trump will melt down soon giving the GOP time to replace him

I just hope he slowly cracks up so by the time he leaves the race the GOP will be up sh*t out of luck.

[Fast Walker 52]

28. true....

although if he has to step down, the GOP is clearly toast for the race.

[wiggs]

34. This HAS to be the GOP hope, if not an outright plan. Trump isn't really running a campaign...

he's not raising money, spending money, staffing up. As another DUer noted, there are practically no republican office holders on sunday shows for trump. Trump doesn't want to be president (wants his VP to run things, if elected). GOP would much rather have Pence.

Remember...it's axiomatic that a republican can't win the primary and then also win the general. Trump quitting is a way around that.

[True Dough]

29. It is useless for the rest of us to worry about Trump's sanity

Because he alone will act as his own therapist. He alone can cure what ails him.

[Different Drummer]

30. What worries me more than his sanity

or lack thereof is the sanity--or lack thereof--of his supporters. The fact that they support him says something about their sanity.

[Maru Kitteh]

31. Reason has begged this question for more than a year, at least.

[KewlKat]

32. I think he has MALIGNANT PERSONALITY

THE MALIGNANT PERSONALITY:

These people are mentally ill and extremely dangerous! The following precautions will help to protect you from the destructive acts of which they are capable. To recognize them, keep the following guidelines in mind:

(1) They are habitual liars. They seem incapable of either knowing or telling the truth about anything.

(2) They are egotistical to the point of narcissism. They really believe they are set apart from the rest of humanity by some special grace.

(3) They scapegoat; they are incapable of either having the insight or willingness to accept responsibility for anything they do. Whatever the problem, it is always someone else’s fault.

(4) They are remorselessly vindictive when thwarted or exposed.

(5) Genuine religious, moral, or other values play no part in their lives. They have no empathy for others and are capable of violence. Under older psychological terminology, they fall into the category of psychopath or sociopath, but unlike the typical psychopath, their behavior is masked by a superficial social facade.


He displays all of these tendancies as well!!!

[Vinca]

35. I'm totally convinced he's clinically nuts.

I used to have a plot in mind for a novel that involved the POTUS going crazy, but this is even worse . . . a crazy person potentially being elected. It kind of means a good chunk of the population of this country is off its rocker.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

36. Very much so. I'm a therapist and see many behaviors that lead me to come up with a lot of theories.

The professional side of me says you can't diagnose someone you have not assessed. The unprofessional side would say that he could have Narcissistic Personality disorder or other personality disorder - and perhaps Bipolar 2 disorder (due to his spending habits).

[Fast Walker 52]

38. indeed-- which reminds me!

did you see this?

Keith Olbermann diagnoses Trump!

[Paladin]

40. If you're not worried about Trump's sanity, you're not paying attention. (nt)

[renie408]

41. NO

Oh, yeah, he is fucknuts crazy. I mean, full on batshit. But I am FAR from worried. I have been worried right up until this weekend. Now I am intrigued and amused, but a whole lot less worried. I imagine shit will get real for us again soon enough. Right now, I am enjoying the show!!

[Fast Walker 52]

43. I vacillate between thinking there's no way he can win and then freaking out that he can

[kerry-is-my-prez]

45. Never underestimate the stupidity of the Republicans. They selected Bush twice.

[clutterbox1830]

44. No, I'm worried of how much free publicity he is getting on a daily basis.

Luckily it;s mostly negative right now, but all major talk shows and website continually broadcast his speeches or his platform.

[backscatter712]

46. He's textbook Narcissistic Personality Disorder and Antisocial Personality Disorder.

Damned straight he is not fit for public office. Especially the Oval Office. He must not be allowed to have his tiny hands on the nuclear button.

He gets bent out of shape when he's criticized by a Gold Star father, or by any of thousands of tweets that poke fun at him.

He's an incredibly thin-skinned manbaby. Which makes him incredibly dangerous if he were to have command of the nation's military, law enforcement, and nuclear arsenal.

[pnwmom]

47. Yes, so it's beyond worrying. He cannot be allowed to become President.

If our media keep this up, they will be complicit in electing a monster.

[yardwork]

48. This.

[NikkiTaMere]

49. Why worry about something that is nonexistant? I'm worried about how far his INSANITY goes

I fear he'll be cannibalizing infants before November.

[Warren DeMontague]

50. I thought it was kind of a given that he was a delusional narcissist

[SeattleVet]

58. They're trying to elect a delusional narcissistic megalomaniac.

What could possibly go wrong?

[RKP5637]

51. Yes!!! n/t

[madamesilverspurs]

52. More worrisome

is the millions of people who support him.

Never mind the Zombies, I'm askeered of the "Trumpster Apocalypse"!


(borderline serious)


.

[WheelWalker]

53. He's clinical. But that's only the beginning.

[DUgosh]

54. His and

Most of my teaparty relatives

[John Poet]

60. Only in proportion to his proximity to 'The Button',

do I worry about Trump's sanity-- or rather 'lack thereof'.

[Fast Walker 52]

62. I was JUST going to make a comment on that

the thought of him having control of our nuclear arsenal keeps me awake at night. I'm not even exaggerating.

[SheriffBob]

63. I'm worried

t hat he will have a nervous breakdown before the election and will not be able to run.

That would probably make Pence the puke the candidate for potus.


no telling which republican ghoul he would pick.

nobody would make as bad a candidate as trump.
