Donald Trump's mental state is so 'extreme' that it could drive him to seek nuclear war in order to feel powerful, a US psychologist has claimed in a stark warning that has reignited debate over the President's fitness for office. Speaking on The Daily Beast's podcast, Dr John Gartner, a former assistant professor of psychiatry at Johns Hopkins University Medical School, said Trump was 'the sickest person' he has encountered in his four decades in clinical practice.
concerns and speculation about Trump's mental health have bubbled away for years, often dismissed by his allies as partisan attacks and medical overreach. This latest intervention comes after a fresh round of media appearances by Gartner, who has long argued that Trump displays signs of dementia and severe personality pathology, despite never having examined him. His claims sit directly at odds with official White House medical reports issued during Trump's presidency, which repeatedly described him as being in 'excellent health.'
