Trump's Increasing Mental Instability



This past weekend malignant narcissist and Kremlin asset Donald "Rump" Trump issued a blizzard of tweets, ranging from attacks on the late Sen. John McCain to defending Islamophobe Jeanine Pirro, to calling for an "investigation" by the FCC of "Saturday Night Live." Granted he allows himself abundant "executive time" to indulge in his grievances, but even for Rump it was a tweet-heavy weekend. Some are noting the signs of anger, paranoia and general mental disorder in his tweet show, including conservative attorney George Conway, husband of the White (Supremacist) House's alternate facts generator Kellyanne, who posted on Twitter:



Already this morning, he's manically tweeted about everything from Joe Biden, to General Motors, to his approval in the Rethuglican Party. Not even a half-hearted expression of support for the Muslim community either here or globally after the New Zealand massacre.

Numerous articles have been written about Rump's psychopathologies, including a clear "duty to warn" message from 37 psychiatrists and mental health professionals in the book "The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump."  A petition by psychiatrist Dr. John Gartner gathered over 70,000 signatures from mental health professionals insisting that Rump be removed from office under the 25th Amendment due to his mental illness. Yet, the media for the most part has declined to explore this serious concern with any urgency.

Erratic behavior, reckless impulsiveness, constant self-agrandizement, pathological lying, and much more point to someone who needs to be under the care of a mental health professional, not sitting in the Oval Office. It shouldn't take George Conway to tell us.

In truth, Trump has been like this since the campaign and probably long before. The only difference is that this horrible behavior has become much more consequential since he is the president. I've been saying for sometime that this will be the worst year yet. I deeply hope it won't be but, yes, he really needs to be removed ASAP.

Jimbo -- His upbringing suggests someone who believes they are beyond rules and can prey on anyone they wish with no consequences. He's deeply malignant, and you're right, this isn't new.

Agreed and nothing fake about this. It's bizarre actually as is the media.

I think Most people believe this to be true. Even the ones who won't admit it out loud. There isn't anything anyone can, WILL do. We can't wait till 2020.
If they are medicating him, it's NOT the right stuff or amount. Or, maybe TOO much. ??

One Fly -- It's time to stand up, media included, to call things like they are.

F.M. -- Someone should investigate his alleged use of Adderall, and/or whether this behavior is a sign of dementia. We can't trust the military doctors who depend on him for promotions, favors.
