Yes, I'm aware there are psychologists who didn't want Trump to win decided to almost-but-not-quite "diagnose" him for the media in the hopes that it would thwart his election. C'mon Risky. You know exactly how elections and politics work. They throw anything and everything at the opposing side so the voters will be swayed to their side.
That's what they've been hoping for for over 2 years now. Don't you remember the press conference with the White House doctor when reporters were beside themselves that Trump wasn't dying or in poor health?
Look, Risky -- I don't like Trump either. I think he's rude, crude and WAY too into himself. But I'm also not going to jump on the "he must be deteriorating mentally" train just because I don't like his personality or the way he speaks to people or if he misses a few events. Maybe he's sick, maybe he's just being an asshole, maybe there were threats against him, maybe, maybe, maybe. Missing a few events or getting angry at an asshole reporter isn't a sign that he's deteriorating mentally. People have been HOPING he's mentally or physically deteriorating because they hate him and want him to not be President anymore. That's what I see happening in your little article you posted.
Who woulda thought the day would come when the President being an asshole was not remarkable enough to remark on?
