Tom Nichols has raised serious concerns about the mental health of the commander-in-chief following President Trump’s recent behavior. Nichols points to Trump’s insomnia-induced, Obama-obsessed posting spree as evidence of paranoia and delusion that should alarm the public.
Adding to the unease are visible physical symptoms, including giant bruises on his hands and a new blotch on his neck, which Nichols suggests are not helping matters.
Speculation has also emerged about a potential $10 billion IRS settlement with Trump, which some believe could be an attempt by the DOJ to ease his emotional distress over his perceived loss in Iran.
In a broader context, Nichols and Tim Miller discuss the administration’s counterterrorism strategy, with Miller referencing a previous interview where Trump asked Comey about the Hillary email investigation.
Recent poll numbers for the president are worse than they were after January 6, further fueling concerns about his stability and leadership.
Nichols joins Miller for a special live podcast episode to delve deeper into these issues. The discussion will also cover:
- Tim Miller’s interview with Comey from last year
- The administration’s counterterrorism strategy
Additionally, Nichols and Miller announce upcoming live events:
