Trump\u2019s rallies are now exposing more and more of his unstable thinking. Those observing his behavior and speech content are now speaking out boldly, questioning his mental capabilities of running this country. One speech after another, not even including the countless Twitter remarks, have the news media and his own political staff wondering if he might be losing a sense of reality. It is a frightening when you cannot follow a sensible train of thought from someone who has the power to say for instance, start a nuclear war with just one push of a button. It has been made very clear by the Defense department that there are actually no safeguards in place in line of command to stop Trump from doing just that. Members of a CNN panel on Tuesday openly questioned whether President Trump is mentally fit for office after this last rally in Phoenix.<\/p>\n
The rally was completely out of control, even by Trump\u2019s standards. He accused the media of \u201ctrying to take away our history, our heritage,\u201d and threatened to shut down the federal government in order to get funding for a wall between the United States and Mexico. CNN commentators said it was difficult to watch Trump speak and not question whether he was fit for office. They discussed the 25th Amendment, which allows for the vice president to initiate a process by which the president can be removed from office if his Cabinet deems him to be unfit. \u201cThere was no sanity there. He was like a child blaming a sibling on something else,\u201d CNN\u2019s Don Lemon said immediately after the rally. \u201cA man clearly wounded by the rational people who are abandoning him in droves, meaning those business people and the people in Washington now who are questioning his fitness for office and whether he is stable.\u201d David Chalian, CNN\u2019s political director, said Trump was \u201ctotally unhinged\u201d during the speech.

\nRick Wilson, a conservative pundit, went even further. \u201cIt was an astounding chain of lies tied together by lunatic asides by a man who obviously is mentally unstable. I mean, I\u2019m not joking about it or being a smartass; this is a man who is not well,\u201d Wilson said. \u201cThis is a man who is not qualified or mentally or morally fit to be the president of the United States and tonight was one more proof of it.\u201d \u201cHe alternated between being a whiny 6-year-old who\u2019s had his Nintendo taken away and between being the cranky old man who\u2019s being out there condemning everyone who doesn\u2019t worship him adequately,\u201d he added. \u201cI know the 25th Amendment is a remote possibility, but if people around him don\u2019t think this guy is absolutely batcrap crazy, they are mistaken.\u201d

\nEven among Washington\u2019s heated rhetoric, it\u2019s unusual for pundits and journalists to comment on someone\u2019s mental state. But Trump\u2019s erratic behavior has pushed boundaries, leading many to speculate on his fitness for office. \u201cThe president has not yet been able to demonstrate the stability nor some of the competence that he needs to demonstrate in order to be successful. And we need for him to be successful, our nation needs for him to be successful,\u201d Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) told reporters last week.\n\t\t<\/p>\n
