Former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci told Vanity Fair Donald Trump is “worse than racist” and said he believes Trump to be experiencing mental decline.
“I think the guy is losing it, mentally,” Scaramucci told the publication. “He has declining mental faculties; he’s becoming more petulant; he’s becoming more impetuous. Okay, you see just by the way he’s sweating, his body’s not doing well. It’s obviously not a guy that takes care of himself, right?”
Scaramucci continued, “And he doesn’t listen to anybody. And just think about this, okay? There’s no one—there’s no Jim Mattis; there’s no Gary Cohn; there’s no one to check him anymore. Whatever my differences were with General John Kelly, after he left, this thing has completely unspooled.”
According to Newsweek, there has long been speculation that Trump’s mental health was on a decline; however, his supporters say that claim is both inaccurate and inappropriate.
Last year, Yale psychiatrist, Bandy Lee, told Newsweek that a longtime family friend of the Trump family approached her with concerns about his well-being. She said two officials from the administration also did the same.
Lee documented Trump displaying “psychological symptoms reflective of emotional compulsion, impulsivity, poor concentration, narcissism, and recklessness.”
Lee wrote, “My current concern is that we are already witnessing a further unraveling of the president’s mental state, especially as the frequency of his lying increases and the fervor of his rallies intensifies. I am concerned that his mental challenges could cause him to take unpredictable and potentially extreme and dangerous measures to distract from his legal problems.”
