Trump smacked with list of former associates warning he's mentally unstable in brutal CNN segment

"There is something known as the Goldwater Rule that bars diagnosis of a candidate or president's mental health by professionals or otherwise," said Avlon. "Armchair diagnosis can be dangerous and misleading, because it often reflects the partisan bias of the self-appointed analysts. But that doesn't mean we should ignore the evidence provided by the people closest to the president. Like his former chief of staff who called Trump 'unhinged.' A 'moron' according to his secretary of state. His chief strategist reportedly compared him to an '11-year-old child who lost a step.' A 'madman' according to a former communications director. An 'idiot surrounded by clowns' according to his chief economic adviser. This is a very few examples."
