In reply to the discussion: John Harwood, on MSNBC just now, concerned about Trump's state of mind, says he doesn't look well [View all]Grammy23
(6,124 posts)41. I think we need to remember that these reporters have followed tRump
closely for some time. They see him depart from the WH regularly and are familiar with his impromptu moments in front of the cameras. Often what WE see are the clips from an interview whereas, the reporters were there for the entire event. They know very well what is normal behavior for tRump and what is a departure from the norm (for him).
If Harwood is seeing changes (for whatever the reason), I think we can believe him. It is not that he is just noticing. He is PAID to notice things. A person who has been an eye witness to the bizarre person who occupies the WH has a unique opportunity to report to the rest of us what he sees and observes.
Weve had hints and observations of our own that tRump is not well. Now we have a well known journalist tell us he sees it, too. The thing that is critical right now is the big pow wow in Singapore. A lot is riding on this. His departure to go to Canada seemed especially odd to me. His belligerence and anger were evident in every word he said. It was a noticeable change that seemed to exaggerate every negative thing about him. I think we should be very, very worried that he is the man sitting down with Kim. Something is not right. Even more than usual. Harwood just made a point of mentioning what he saw.
