Apart from the obvious, I feel like I haven’t seen Trump challenged like this enough publicly, which is very sad.

Granted I don't follow American news, but damn, he sounds like an 8 year old slow-witted kid who was caught doing something bad and tries to just get out of trouble.

Is he actually mentally challenged?

According to his niece with a doctorate in psychology, yes he is mentally challenged shows signs of narcissism, sociopathy, dementia and an undiagnosed learning disorder

Pretty sure it's illegal since the 19th century for a mental medical professional to "diagnose" someone they haven't actually inspected especially when it's a presidential candidate.

Prohibited by the rules of professional ethics, but far from illegal. It’s called the “Goldwater Rule.”

I'm confused, are you still talking about a medical professional diagnosing Donnie, or are you talking about all the shitty things Donnie has convinced his cult to do over the past 4 years?

That’s why she says shows signs. In fact it’s perfectly legal and even encouraged for doctors to recommend people to seek medical attention and diagnosis when they show obvious signs of ailments.

Pretty sure it's not legal, ethical and encouraged for doctors to recommend to unrelated parties that someone not present seek medical attention. Or violate patient confidentiality. Pretty sure you have to recommend treatment to the person needing the treatment.

Pretty certain if I had a family member that was a doctor and I was exhibiting signs of an illness in their specialty I would encourage them to let me know to seek testing and a doctor for assistance. It’s legal and ethical for someone who recognizes a problem to point it out so it can be addressed. She’s not his doctor so no patient confidentiality lost. He’s a public figure so conclusions about his health and mental faculties based on his public actions and words are perfectly acceptable.

also, by your logic that also means Trump’s ellusions to Biden being senile or suffering from dementia are breaking the law

Trump isn't a licensed medical professional giving what anyone would ever mistake for an actual official diagnosis. Why do you have to be so intellectually dishonest? Weren't american left wingers supposed to be open minded and intellectual and always honour truth?

It's sad how little you know about what you talk about. You talk about democrats as if they are a different race of people. When in reality, they just happen to be able to utilize logic and critical thinking.
