Trump didn’t make anything up. He reacted to some things in Ben Carson’s book that perhaps shouldn’t have been written that way. Dr Carson is a physician, when he says pathologic temper it means something specific and frankly dangerous. That is what Trump was getting at. To use that word about yourself is strange because its a serious accusation. What other things get called pathological? Trump gave examples. He discussed why he thought the violent stabbings and attack on Mom didn’t happen the way they were described. The whole topic is distasteful but Carson is the one that brought it to the table.

Trump never hesitates to call things as he sees them even though sometimes it means he gets muddied as he did here. I am impressed with Dr Carson in many ways but like all of us he is a mixed bag and some of his positions are odd.

I didn’t say Trump made it up. I was referring to poster Fantasy Writer making up (i.e. embellishing) what Carson wrote in his book.
