Former Trump Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci today appeared on MSNBC’s AMJoy show and made the bombshell allegation that “we have a full blown lunatic in the White House.” This was of course in reference to President Trump with whom he is currently feuding and apparently recruiting a primary opponent against for the 2020 elections.
Concerns as to whether Scaramucci’s latest allegations can be taken seriously are valid especially given the fact that he has been for quite a while a very loyal defender of the President against the very kind of allegations he is currently making(mental unfitness). The problem however is that very credible professionals have also raised questions about President Trump’s mental fitness for office.

The question therefore is not whether we should believe Scaramucci but rather, what we are going to do about the very serious and existential threat of president Trump’s mental state? How many medical professionals have to give us flashing red warning signs before Congress starts to address this topic? There’s already talk about impeaching President Trump over a whole host of other reasons. Why not include mental unfitness in that list?
Bottom line folks, politicians have been known to say some of the wackiest things. We all know however that what is going on with President Trump is beyond wacky and deep into the 25th amendment realm–especially after his ridiculous “I am The Chosen One” comment–an out and out blasphemy. This latest outburst was so ridiculous that he has apparently taken it back claiming that he was just being sarcastic. Trump rarely takes his public comments back regardless of how ridiculous they sound meaning he must have realized how insane it appears to the public to have someone in his position refer to himself as “The Chosen One”
Here’s the video of Trump, talking about his trade war with China, looking to the sky and saying, “I am the Chosen One.”

Trump isn’t smiling, as he claims. There doesn’t seem to be any indication that he’s “kidding,” as he claims. pic.twitter.com/RElBxUAQZs
Simply put folks, the next time the topic of impeachment pops up, House Democrats must throw in the fact that Trump is simply mentally unfit to be president. Maybe, just maybe, this would be enough for Speaker Pelosi to finally hop on the impeachment train. Don’t bet the house on it though.
