"President Trump Craves Loyalty, but Offers None” which should be title How to say Trump is too mentally ill to be president"…………… CAPS ARE MINE:
Mr. Trump’s actions and the disclosures by those close to him revealed this president to be an INSECURE, FEARFUL MAN who can’t eat or place a phone call without a backdrop of fawning aides. Rather than cultivate experienced, strong-minded advisers who might challenge his views, Mr. Trump prefers to GOVERN BY IMPULSE and edict, DEMANDING ABSURD PLEDGES of “loyalty.”
Americans learned that Mr. Trump gave his bodyguard’s opinion on the Comey matter as much weight as any adviser’s, if not more. They saw that he was COMFORTABLE HUMILATING AIDES by flatly contradicting their accounts of his decision-making.
Americans were also presented with a president OBSESSIVE WATCHING CABLE TELEVISION NEWS AND ATTACKING IMAGINED ENEMIES.
Mr. TRUMP GLOATED THAT THEY WERE CHOKING ‘LIKE DOGS’” Later, over a dinner in which he got two scoops of ice cream to everyone else’s one, HE MARVELED WITHOUT IRONY AT HIS CRITICS’ “MEANNESS.”
Americans read about Mr. Trump RANTING AT HIS BIG SCREEN TV demanding that reporters stop focusing on Russia and that the F.B.I. focus not on foreign meddling but on leaks to the media. On NBC, they watched Mr. Trump belittle Mr. Comey as a “showboat.” They witnessed his BIZARRE EFFORT TO SILENCE MR. COMEY \ by threatening to release “tapes” of their White House dinner — this from a man who has railed about imagined efforts by the Obama administration to “tapp” him.
And Americans were treated to yet ANOTHER PORTRAIT OF INEPTITUDE SO SURREAL AS TO QUALIFY AS A KIND OF PERFORMANCE ART, OR MAYBE SLAPSTICK.
Of course these are all euphemisms for symptoms of the Trump diagnosis most psychotherapists who weren’t constrained the the Goldwater rule have been explaining in numerous articles and several TV appearances.
The most recent article in the NY Daily News comes from the founder of the Duty to Warn movement (over a year ago), my friend Dr. Howard Gartner. It’s short and well worth reading:
