Is Trump Losing His Mind?

These are Trump's words verbatim from a rally in Michigan last Thursday. It's not an isolated incident. I'm wondering if the stress he's been under for the last 8 years has rendered him near psychotic.

"She destroyed the city of San Francisco, it’s — and I own a big building there — it’s no — I shouldn’t talk about this but that’s OK I don’t give a damn because this is what I’m doing. I should say it’s the finest city in the world — sell and get the hell out of there, right? But I can’t do that. I don’t care, you know? I lost billions of dollars, billions of dollars. You know, somebody said, ‘What do you think you lost?’ I said, ‘Probably two, three billion. That’s OK, I don’t care.’ They say, ‘You think you’d do it again?’ And that’s the least of it. Nobody. They always say, I don’t know if you know. Lincoln was horribly treated. Uh, Jefferson was pretty horribly. Andrew Jackson they say was the worst of all, that he was treated worse than any other president. I said, ‘Do that study again, because I think there’s nobody close to Trump.’ I even got shot! And who the hell knows where that came from, right?"

You know, she was a district attorney, and she was the attorney general of the state. I heard the other day -- and this isn't anything -- I'm just saying. They'll say, "He was rambling." I don't ramble. I'm really smart guy, you know, really smart. I don't ramble. But the other day, anytime I hit too hard, they say, "He was rambling, rambling." You know, I get up and I make a speech.

I go for sometimes two hours, two and a half hours because, you know, people are waiting outside for three days, four days. You guys were waiting out there for a long time. Front-Row Joes are waiting out. I don't know how you guys do it. And I feel I have an obligation to speak and speak in a certain way and speak a little bit longer. You know, how would you like it? A guy's waiting with his family for three and a half, four days? They have a tent and the tent is set up, they have hundreds of them, and they wait. And then I walk in, speak for 15 minutes and leave. I don't know. Would that be OK, North Carolina, I don't think so, right?

They want me to speak all day. You know, when I leave, I did one two hours and 15 minutes, and I'm leaving and they're screaming. "No, sir. More. We want to hear more." I said, "I can't." I said, "I can't speak more. What the hell else am I going to say?" Our country is going to hell. That's all I can say. We're a nation in decline. You know, we were talking about that before. My phrases are copied so much, right? I use the term oftentimes in closing. We are a nation in decline. We are a failed nation. And I think it's a beautiful phrase, although I don't like the topic very much. I don't like what it represents, but there's a certain beauty.
