Trump's latest 'particularly creepy' move alarms psychologist: 'Aggrandizing himself'
President Donald Trump's latest "particularly creepy" move alarmed a psychologist over the weekend.
Dr. John Gartner, a psychologist and psychotherapist, discussed the Trump administration's decision to unfurl a massive banner with Trump's face on the Department of Justice building on a new episode of "The Daily Beast Podcast" with Joanna Coles. Gartner argued that the banner is another sign that Trump is slipping further into the grips of dementia and may be experiencing a phenomenon known as "sundowning." He noted Trump's seemingly disinhibited behavior and his inability to control his sleep schedule.
Putting the banners on the Department of Justice is just another notch in that belt of disinhibited behavior, Garnet argued.
"He has very little intellectual curiosity, very little capacity to concentrate, very little interest in anything, and anything having to do with the country," Gartner said. "He's only interested in himself, aggrandizing himself, and putting his name on things, his picture on things."
"But the Justice Department makes it particularly creepy because, of course, he's persecuting his enemies and shielding his friends and taking their name out of the Epstein files," Gartner added. "And so, Big Brother's Justice Department. Justice is what Big Brother says it is."
