Those close to Donald Trump fear the former president “may have legit PTSD” from the assassination attempt at a Pennsylvania rally last month.
That’s according to a Vanity Fair report published Wednesday that claimed those in Trump’s inner circle have noticed that he’s become fixated on a seven-second clip that shows the moment he nearly lost his life.
“He’s been watching that seven-second clip of how close he was to getting shot right in the head—over and over and over again,” said a Republican close to the campaign, reported Vanity Fair.
I don’t know man…I don’t like trump, at all, but getting intentionally targeted by an assasin, and only surviving because you unknowingly turned your head just the right way to make the bullet miss by inches seems like a legit reason to develop actual PTSD.
Theres lots of reasons to hate trump, but if you dehumanize him you run the same risk that 1940s had with hitler. If you think of him as a monster, you stop thinking of him as human. If you stop thinking of him as human, it’s easy to dismiss his behavior and actions as being not something a human would do. And once you do that you open the door for it to happen in the future.
Everything trump and hitler have done are fully able to be done by someone else. As terrible as they are, they’re still human.
You could have a decent thought here if it weren’t for his response to BLM movement, trying to call in the national guard to crowd control with live ammo, the border and war crimes, as well his assault on the court system and attack on reproductive/women’s rights. That among many other things no one remembers. The sheer volume of trauma he’s generated in the world easily negates any sympathy in my mind.
As a human he deserves medical and psychological treatment like anyone else as that’s a human right imo. One which he’s happy to ignore for others. By no means would i ever feel a shred of sympathy for the fleshpile.
Complex PTSD needs to be in the DSM…
That’s not at all how PTSD works. Bad things happen to people all the time and they don’t develop PTSD. It’s insulting to people who really deal with it.
This sounds like you don’t have an understanding of how PTSD works.
