Pelosi calls Trump āunhingedā and reveals exchange with doctors at 2019 memorial for top psychiatrist
In early 2019, at a memorial service for a prominent psychiatrist, a succession of ādoctors and other mental health professionalsā told Nancy Pelosi they were ādeeply concerned that there was something seriously wrongā withĀ Donald Trump, āand that his mental and psychological health was in declineā.
āIām not a doctor,ā the former speaker writes in an eagerly awaited memoir, ābut I did find his behaviors difficult to understand.ā
So, you agree with her statement because of its content, but then try to cast doubt on the same statement because of who said it?
Iām not casting doubt on the statement, Iām saying people who care about hypocrisy wont listen to hypocrites.
And people who donāt care about hypocrisy are voting trump.
Donāt think of it as someone engaged in politics and informed of current events.
Think of it as the ~1/3 of Americans that almost never vote. Theyāre the ones who need to be convinced, and theyāre not going to listen to one 80 year old currently in office say another 80 year old is too old.
If Pelosi believed that. She wouldnāt be in office.
Itās like when Republicans go after each other, they might occasionally say something true. Doesnāt make it untrue, but also no one should be listening to them.
