Is Trump delusional?

Post by _aussieguy55 »

Delusions are beliefs that exist despite indisputable factual evidence to the contrary. – Trump economy – added 300 billion to deficit. Debt to GDP 108%
Delusions are held with absolute certainty despite their falsity and impossibility.- Trump
Delusions can have a variety of themes, including grandeur and persecution.- Angry Democrats Peliso James Comey Mitt Romney.
Delusional people tend to be extremely thin-skinned and humourless regarding their delusions. – If Putin says nice things about me I will say nice things about him.
Delusions are central to the persons existence and questioning them elicits a jolting and visceral reaction. Trump's speeches attacking the press. Has he got Kim get rid of nukes? Has he stopped Putin attacking Ukraine? How is the wall going?
Delusions disorder is chronic even lifelong and tends to worsen in adulthood, middle age and beyond. – Trump's weird speech patterns have been noticed “ Objectively I do not see how any informed clinician would not notice a significant difference between the cognitive performance if Trump in videos from fifteen years ago to his current presentation. Objectively I personally do not see how any informed clinician cannot conclude that there is reason for concern and /or a formal evaluation” Cognitive Impairmant Dementia and President (Dr David M Reiss MD The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump 27 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President pp. 129-130.
Words and actions are consistent and logical if the basic premise of the delusion is accepted as reality. “Because I am superior to all , it follows that I would never apologize because I am never wrong. – “Why should I ask for forgiveness when I have done nothing wrong” Maybe ask Melania?

“Why “Crazy like a Fo” versus “Crazy like a Crazy” Really Matters” M Tansey in The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump : 27 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Workers Assess a President pp 110=125

David Packman discusses all the tweets Trump sent over two days. What normal personal does that? At least he gets love letters from Kim.
