President Donald Trump forcefully hit back against suggestions that his mental health is slipping in a series of Saturday morning tweets.
Now that Russian collusion, after one year of intense study, has proven to be a total hoax on the American public, the Democrats and their lapdogs, the Fake News Mainstream Media, are taking out the old Ronald Reagan playbook and screaming mental stability and intelligence…..

….Actually, throughout my life, my two greatest assets have been mental stability and being, like, really smart. Crooked Hillary Clinton also played these cards very hard and, as everyone knows, went down in flames. I went from VERY successful businessman, to top T.V. Star…..

….to President of the United States (on my first try). I think that would qualify as not smart, but genius….and a very stable genius at that!

Suggestions of Trump’s supposed mental unfitness for office have been mentioned by several media personalities in recent days. The suggestions were sparked by a Tuesday tweet on the nuclear crisis in North Korea and exacerbated by a new book on the early days of the White House by Michael Wolff.
Wolff’s insider account, which the White House has called “tabloid trash,” portrays Trump harshly. “If we was unfit, he probably wouldn’t be sitting there and wouldn’t have defeated the most qualified group of candidates the Republican Party has ever seen,” White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said of the growing questioning of the president’s mental health.
