    No mental evaluation however! THAT's the problem here!

  3. I think he's sane but he's trying to throw the midterms to the Dems to repay the Clintons. Or he doesn't want a second term knowing he'll be a lame duck and the oligarchs may press him to push legislation that favors Russia in some way. There is something truly odd with his behavior.

    I'm glad the psychiatrist cleared him with a clean bill of health.

    That's not what the Doc said. But again it's always another unknown we need, and when that doesn't fit the narrative we go on to another unknown.

    The Doctor said he was in good health, both physically and mentally. Those are the facts. Get over it.

  9. Or Ronald Reagan.

    From the linked article above.

    "
    It’s entirely possible that the president does not have predementia or is not progressing toward dementia. But he is definitely behaving as such.


    If an individual with these symptoms was in an average job in an average community surrounded by an average family, he or she would most likely be seen by a doctor. In the clinical evaluation of dementia, the concerns expressed by family members and the patient themselves are essential: They explain the changes observed over recent years, and that history is a prime ingredient in formulating the differential diagnosis.

    The uniqueness of the megalomaniacal media personality that Trump has built himself into, followed by the presidency and its attendant cadre of fawning assistants, have most likely prevented him from getting proper assessment.

    The president’s apparent symptoms are advancing and warrant medical evaluation by relevant specialists. Given the sensitivity of his case, an independent panel would be appropriate. It’s entirely possible that the president does not have predementia or is not progressing toward dementia. But he is definitely behaving as such."

    Yep it was a cursory functional cognitive check for serious disfunction not a psychiatric evaluation.

    But I don't believe that liberals believe the President is mentally unfit. I believe that liberals will do or say just about *anything* to impede Trump from executing on his agenda. I don't think anyone is buying the liberal talking points about mental issues. It just isn't credible. You have remind yourself that this is the same party lead in the House by Nancy Pelosi who has genuine mental difficulties.
