Donald Trump’s recent ‘erratic behavior’ has medical professionals questioning his mental health

“Donald Trump is not of sound mind.”

Trump “appears haunted by multiple personality disorders.”

“Donald Trump is not a well man.”

These are the comments of dismayed conservative political analysts who have watched the unorthodox campaign of 2016 GOP nominee Donald Trump lurch from one crisis to another due to the New York businessman’s erratic behavior.

According to the Toronto Star, what started out as whispers about Trump have worked their way up to a scream as it begins to dawn on steadfast Republicans that a man whose mouth they can’t control might be a danger to the country should he ascend to the highest office in the land.

Snip......

Conservative political experts have begun to take notice and are raising red flags now.

According to Stuart Stevens, chief strategist to Mitt Romney’s 2012 campaign, “We can gloss over it, laugh about it, analyze it, but Donald Trump is not a well man,” before adding that he is not a doctor or a psychologist.

“There is something definitely off about him.” Stevens said. “At best, this is a very damaged person. And there’s probably something more serious going on.”

Some of us noticed it over a year ago. Something is 'definitely off' indeed.

personality disorder as a possibility, but mostly they've settled on speaking of "temperament," while they completely fail to get the message out that a mentally disordered man is one election away from the White House.

Btw, this is an excellent example of why to replace for-profit TV news with genuine journalism. Even here on DU many have no idea that this man is mentally disordered. He literally cannot feel, reason, or react the way "normal" people do.

"I'm the head of the pack of Cluster T, I got 'em all, I'm that amazing, I'm yuuuge in the abnormal psychology community and I know they love me, I've got some real fans there and they're also always offering me experimental pills, telling me they're trying to help people, well maybe instead of pills we should build a wall and keep everyone else out with Cluster T personalities out and make them pay for it."
