Why The Emperor Has No Clothes

Henry Abraham via Henry David Abraham’s Stuff for Public Consumption:

‘ The world should be indebted to TIME Magazine’s Senior Political Correspondent Eric Cortellessa and Editor-in-Chief Sam Jacobs for their interview of President Donald Trump on September 28, 2026.

This interview should be required reading for anyone who still believes that the President is in command of his faculties and capable of leading the country in a time of peril. It’s also an excellent interview for any student of the psychological sciences at every level of training and experience. For many years as a psychiatric supervisor I often said, only half in jest, that when a patient appeared with the signs and symptoms like Mr. Trump’s it was time to call the medical students. They were great at digging into data and parsing a complex patient’s many diagnostic possibilities. The surfeit of Mr. Trump’s misrepresentations, grandiosity, illogic, and impulsivity suggest a similar degree of complexity beyond the now low-hanging fruit of “narcissistic and antisocial personality” disorders. To that end the TIME interview is a gift to those who would understand this man.’…’
