Speaker Pelosi went there, publicly suggesting that Trump's actions and speech are not normal. He needs an intervention, what a powerful statement that I believe needed to be said because Trump is our president and as such has vast powers which require him to be mentally and physically healthy.
It was a crying shame how the right attacked Hillary, I won't list all of the lies they spread about her mental and physical condition, I will simply say that they reported she had 6 months to live.
We as Democrats would never go there about Trump, spreading lies about him, but it is obvious to me that Trump has issues.
Nicolle Wallace has been pushing this issue on numerous telecasts. She will show a clip of Trump unable to form coherent thoughts or even form a complete sentence before becoming disjointed. She pushes her guests for comment and when they try to explain away Trump's behavior she cuts them off. She is pushing the narrative that Trump is not well, whether it be a mental or physical problem or both.
I understand why we can't and shouldn't diagnose Trump from our living rooms, but I have no problem with what Nicolle has been doing. She shows a clip of Trump and then merely says, "that is not normal."
Speaker Pelosi said it best, Trump needs an intervention, but then again, oh my, wouldn't that set him off?

donald fraud's abnormal mental processes actually had a lot to do with his becoming president. it enabled him to establish a strong core of supporters by doing something politically crazy -- pissing off a majority of americans; it enabled him to not only blithely commit major crimes in pursuit of the election, but it enabled him to convince others around him to go along with it; and it enabled him to lie relentlessly and harang the media for favorable treatment.
moreover, that hardcore support and those well-placed enablers are what keep him in power, e.g., people know the senaturtle probably won't even schedule an impeachment trial, or in any event, the senate would refuse to convict him.
if donald fraud were to somehow have his abnormal mental processes addresses and become more normal, his support would very quickly fall apart. only a few percent out of the 60% that loathe him would give him another chance, but a large swath of the 40% that still support him would lose interest and be far less inclined to vote.
