Sources close to the ex-president’s campaign have said he’s particularly fixated on a single seven-second clip.
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.
That's not PTSD. He's a narcissist and that was the last moment where he was the center of national attention and it looked like there was no way he could lose. Then Biden stepped down.
Look, Donnie, PTSD sucks. Unlike your cult, those of us working against you do want you to seek treatment. Like legitimately. We want you to get better.
That's not PTSD. That's a fixation, maybe an epiphany on his mortality. There's a whole range of symptoms he'd need to be displaying at least some of. Calling that PTSD is problematic on so many levels.
We all know what else in this vid. The cinematographic rise of Trump from under security agents with a fist. He is nutting over how great he is at that moment.
In his shoes, I'd be traumatized by the huge percentage of people that are disappointed by the poor aim. I'm one of those people. Only good Nazi is a dead one.
As a person he presents as such a terrible person.
But as a human being, I feel for him and don't think anyone - even the worst of us - deserves PTSD.
Mr Trump deserves a long life in a very thick-walled cell, and needs to think on the terrible things he's done and how it affects others. This isn't possible if he's dead.
Yeah I still can't get over how a couple of days later his right ear didn't have a mark on it. At his age, even with the best of plastic surgery, he wouldn't have clean skin on an ear for at least a week if he'd actually had a bullet pass through any part of it. I don't believe things he has to say about his health- he has a pretty solid track record when it comes to not telling the truth about his height, weight, bone spurs, being a stable genius, etc
Don't worry, he's too much of a dumbass to go see a therapist about it. Instead he'll just bottle it up so fester into a new mental illness to add to the pile.
Maybe he'll get access to a therapist once he's in prison. Group therapy once a month, individual sessions once a year or so, that's about how it goes for incarcerated folks I hear. It won't be a lot of help, but then again, he doesn't deserve any.
"a lot of people say I got a good ear. the best ear. they're smart people. this ear fooled that bullet from hitting this youthful head. let's see that stable genius moment again"
