Donald Trump looks and talks like a person who is mentally ill, says CNBC correspondent John Harwood, and others at the network are also questioning the presidents sanity, Mediaite is reporting.
Trumps behavior at the G7 summit, during which hes railed against unfair trade practices with Americas closest allies, suggested allowing Russia back into the fold, threatening retaliatory tariffs, and criticized presidents going back to the Eisenhower administration, has been described as harsh even by Fox News. But for Harwood and his CNBC colleagues, its more concerning than that.
Speaking to MSNBCs AM Joy on Saturday, Harwood brought up Trumps behavior at the summit.
He did not look well to me in that press conference. He was not speaking logically or rationally. There was something about his affect which was oddly kind of languid from him. I dont know what it means, but he did not look well to me.
Harwoods concerns were echoed by his colleagues. MSNBC contributor Malcolm Nance compared him to a monarch whos lost touch with reality.
He came off like Mad King Donald.
If you were talking to me this morning the way we just heard Donald Trump talk, I would ask you if youd taken any medication, advise you not to operate any heavy machinery.
Disregarding Trumps mental health, theres little doubt that the president has been, at the very least, inconsistent at the G7 summit. After complaining at length about trade imbalances and threatening to cut off trade with even the U.S. closest allies, Trump then made what Business Insider describes as a stunning reversal, stating that there should be no tariffs and no barriers to trade at all. This comes a week after Trump imposed harsh tariffs against U.S. allies, including Canada, Mexico, and the European Union.
This is not the first time Trumps mental health has come up in conversation. Back in April, as Vanity Fair reported at the time, Trump advisers, speaking on condition of anonymity, said that they were concerned with the presidents mental health.
In particular, they were worried about what Trump might say or do during a five-day vacation at Mar-a-Lago with nothing on his schedule, in advance of a summit with Japanese prime minister Shinzo Abe.
Similarly, as Fox News reports, Trumps personal physician, Dr. Ronny Jackson, endured a barrage of questions about the presidents mental health. Jackson tried to ease concerns by pointing out that the president had scored perfectly on a cognitive test that included being told to draw a clock.
They must be working on alienting the remainder.
What a bunch of DUMBA$$ES!
This is the “new narrative”.
It is all over the media today.
Apparently the next move will be to try and remove Trump as being incapacitated.
LAL.
I believe they were trying to get that dog to hunt right after the election. FWIW, he may be nuts, but he comes across as significantly more sane than the woman he beat in 2016.
This from the people who wont hesitate to put Maxine Waters and Nancy Pelosi in front of microphones.
I often said this about ObamaIdiot, but yeah, I did not have a big microphone to publicly assert such.................../s
And these networks give financial investment advice?
Mr Harwood should sit down and analyze how he feels about each point and whether his view is consistent with reality and politics today. But he won’t of course - because he is as crazy as the target of his hatred.
The life story of John Harwood is a fascinating one about growing up with power and privilege in the DC swamp. He is the archetype of the kind of creature that is being disempowered by the draining.
Hopefully Trump’s “insanity” is contagious, and will spread to all Repub RINOs and globalists !
My kind of ‘crazy’.
Keep it up, Trump!
Next up: trying to remove President Trump for being unfit.
Is it time now for a parade of psychologists from Academia to be displayed on CNN and MSNBC those appearances to be then “reported on” by ABCNBCBS?
He was languid and mad at the same time!
That 25th Amendment ploy is so last year.
But he’s my kind of crazy. :0)
See, those #neverTrump FReaks TRIED to warn us! /s
LMFAO @ Big Media, and even more at their True Believers!
I think it’s time we all mail boxes of bull sh*t to all the mainstream media corporate offices - just in case they don’t yet know what we think of their urinal-ism.
Now, there's real news!
John Harwood is out of drug rehab???
