Rep. Elijah E. Cummings (D-Md.) once appealed to Trump directly on “Morning Joe,” addressing the camera to implore the president to call him so the two could chat about prescription drugs. A day or so later, Cummings said, the president himself responded.

“I was a little surprised that he called — I thought his secretary would call, but he actually called,” Cummings said. “But it’s the way he operates. And he does watch television and he’s very critical of television, and I thought we had a good conversation.”

...

House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), a friend of the president’s, said he has been impressed with how Trump will call attention to individual lawmakers in meetings, recalling who said what about him or his policies on TV.

“I’ve watched him in rooms where he goes through person by person. He clearly keeps track,” McCarthy said. “He’s not just watching big shows, either. He has called us up after watching our news conferences here at the Capitol.”

So according to you it's not fair to say that Trump is crazy but you're claiming he's sane because he watches a lot of TV?

I like it!

And is obsessed with what people say about him.

Nothing mentally ill about that.

From the prospective of an American citizen, I am disappointed in my POTUS.4906622c5828a6c0427d8f967c6f44b0.jpg
 
Sorry to hear this.
I have to say, he is doing fine by me. He fire a guy that needed firing badly. That pleases me, I wish you could join in.
Mar: Sorry, I knew about him before the presidency ever crossed his mind. In the East, NY and NJ he is known as an self serving egotist. Personally, I had disdain for Clinton and Trump. I wish Americans had real solid choices for the election.

Well originally, my first choice was Rand Paul. But Trump beat out him and 20 some, other candidates for the job. Yeah I would like to see superstar get the job,
But Trump was top dog on this go around.

Most French disdained Macron and Le Pen. They were still smart enough to vote for the lesser of two evils.

Did we ever have a lesser of two evils? Clinton was given that role but she did not have the support of mid American and Southern men.
 
This is how I picture Trump and the white house staff.

 
On his current trip, Melania slaps his hand away every time. She is probably disgusted with him and his ego. Who better to verify he is all about himself and everyone else is seconds.
 
During his trip through Saudi Arabia and Israel, Melania refuses to hold his hand. She is probably disgusted with his huge ego. Who is a better barometer to see inside Trump then his wife? untitled.png
 
Psychiatrist Bandy Lee: “We have an obligation to speak about Donald Trump’s mental health issues. . . . Our survival as a species may be at stake”

As a clinician, when you watch Trump’s behavior day after day — his lying and obfuscation, his apparent confusion and anger management issues — what are you thinking?

I’ve been thinking from the very beginning that he exhibits many signs of mental impairment. I recently organized a conference on this at Yale. Afterwards, there has been almost an army of people who have shared with me how they have been wanting to speak about this issue. I did not expect to get such a massive response.

What are your peers’ specific concerns and what are they afraid of?

This situation has come to such a critical level. In fact, a state of emergency exists and we could no longer hold back. We have an obligation to speak about Donald Trump’s mental health issues because many lives and our survival as a species may be at stake.

What are two or three things you could cite about Donald Trump’s behavior that causes you the greatest concern, worry or alarm?

There are certainly the symptoms that he displays. He has a great need for adulation. He is angry if reality does not meet his needs. People have been expecting him to settle into his role and become normal or more “presidential,” but that does not ordinarily happen among those with such personality traits. In fact, what we’re seeing is a creation of his own reality, a reality that will meet Trump’s own emotional needs and the need to impose that reality on others. It is his imperviousness to facts and reality that could place us all at great risk.
