President Donald Trump slammed reports, questioning his mental stability in a series of tweets on Saturday morning writing that he’s a “very stable genius” after a statement was published regarding him that his first year as President put the White House into damage-control mode.
Trump wrote in his tweet, referring to the questions raised regarding the mental fitness of the former president, who disclosed in 1994 that he had Alzheimer’s disease.
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,” the President continued. “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!.
These tweets of Trump defending his mental stability come after the President and some his top officials spent the last few days defending the claims made by author Michael Wolff in his new book, “Fire and Fury,” which speaks about the President’s mental fitness to serve as a President. The book which went on sale on Friday also portrays the President as a person who neither knows or cares about policy and doesn’t seem to recognize his responsibilities as a President.
Trump’s tweet also comes after, some reports surfaced that a dozen lawmakers from the House and Senate received a concise summary from Yale psychiatrist Dr.Bandy X. Lee on Capitol Hill in December about Trump’s fitness to be President.
Dr.Bandy X. Lee told CNN in a phone interview that on Thursday that:-
“Lawmakers were saying they have been very concerned about this, the President’s dangerousness, the dangers that his mental instability poses on the nation.They know the concern is universal among Democrats, but it really depends on Republicans, they said. Some knew of Republicans that were concerned, maybe equally concerned, but whether they would act on those concerns was their worry.”
The White House has been against the claims that have been made in Wolff’s books. Press secretary Sarah Sanders called it a “complete fantasy” and an attorney for Trump send a “cease and desist” threat to the book’s author and publisher.Trump also issued an extremely critical statement on his former chief strategist, Steve Bannon, saying that he had “lost his mind” after the book quoted Bannon making negative remarks about Trump and his son.
The book quoted Bannon as calling a June 2016 meeting between a Russian lawyer and the President’s eldest son-in-law Jared Kushner and then-campaign chairman Paul Manafort “treasonous” and “unpatriotic”.Bannon also told Wolff that “They’re going to crack Don Junior like an egg on national TV.”
In a tweet, on Friday night he wrote that Bannon cries when he got fired and begged for his job.
Michael Wolff is a total loser who made up stories in order to sell this really boring and untruthful book. He used Sloppy Steve Bannon, who cried when he got fired and begged for his job. Now Sloppy Steve has been dumped like a dog by almost everyone. Too bad! https://t.co/mEeUhk5ZV9

Wolff repeated his belief that it is becoming a widespread view that Trump is unfit for the presidency. He told BBC radio in an interview that it’s a “very clear emperor-has-no-clothes effect.”
“The story that I have told seems to present this presidency in such a way that it says he can’t do his job,” Wolff said in the interview. “Suddenly everywhere people are going, ‘Oh my God, it’s true, he has no clothes.’ That’s the background to the perception and the understanding that will finally end … this presidency.”
