Throughout the 2016 race for the White House, Donald Trump’s sanity (or lack thereof) has been questioned, examined, and debated. Some say he has all the behavioral characteristics of a narcissist. Others have gone further, speculating that Trump is a sociopath. But nearly everyone seems to agree the guy is a few cans short of a six-pack....

Asked about how he thinks Trump will fare in a general election contest with Hillary Clinton, Salter said he expects Trump will lose badly, and that could just push him over the edge psychologically:

“He’s going to lose, and I think he’s got kind of an unstable personality to begin with.

“I think he could come apart, you know, in some kind of visible way. I think that’s quite possible. I’m not a psychiatrist, but there is something wrong with (the) guy.”

1. That will be a short trip.

[Katashi_itto]

2. And if he doesnt?

[onehandle]

3. Go? nt

[cwydro]

4. I believe it.

To lose to a woman?

He'll go crazy.

[chknltl]

5. 2 things wrong: 1st: Trump already insane...

...2nd: no guarantees who Trump will lose to or if he will even lose at all.

6. How would we notice?

I ask that seriously? I'm not sure he has any sane behavior patterns right now.

7. Trump is as sane as his supporters

[LiberalArkie]

12. Correct and scary also.

[immoderate]

8. Already deluded. The bigger the loss, the better the rationalization.

9. All Americans will be tweet-bombed for weeks by Trump if he loses! Months!

10. It'll be YUGE!

[Johonny]

11. Too late

13. I wonder who would feel sorry for him.

It's got to be a short list.

[TeamPooka]

19. not so short if you add all the ex-wives and mistresses.

14. How would we be able to tell? Will he start acting like a normal human being?

[tavernier]

15. Not a bit.

He will lay the blame all over and truly feel that he was screwed and it was all stolen from him. He will never admit a loss.

[malaise]

16. Both Trump and McCain are already

insane

[lagomorph777]

17. How would we tell?

[TeamPooka]

18. He's literally ranting on stage right now so I think he'll be curled up in a fetal position

in Trump Tower mumbling to himself that 'the blacks love me' over and over again by September

[sorefeet]

20. I already said that when he loses

the thin skinned prick will never show his face again and his wife will divorce him. He will be a broken nut ball, because right now he thinks he is invincible.

21. Clearly never met someone like Trump.

For him to go insane would require that he be able to acknowledge, on some level that he cannot refute, that he was legitimately defeated.

That is something he will never do. Should he lose the election he will find something or someone to point at as a scapegoat. The voting machines were rigged, for example. Or he will claim he never wanted to win in the first place. Why would he want to win? He can earn hundreds of times more money as a private individual than as the POTUS. All he really wanted to do was to bring to light some issues facing the nation, and he succeeded at that, just as he has always succeeded at everything he has ever set his mind to.

And more of that sort of thing. He'll get over not being President within days, of not hours. And we'll soon hear about his next project, which he will promise us will be huuuuuge.

22. "go insane"????????

geeez.....

23. "It's the way of the future ... The way of the future ... The way of the future ... "

"I'm Donald Trump, The Aviator Presidential Candidate."

[Jim Lane]

24. If he loses, he'll take it as proof that "Those losers (the voters) didn't deserve me."

There also may be some scapegoating, as others have mentioned. An obvious possibility will be to charge that the GOP regulars stabbed him in the back. That will almost certainly be true, even to an objective observer.
