The debate over the mental state of the American president returns...
The post comparing himself to Jesus, the threat against Iran, and the attacks on the Pope have reopened an old debate in the US: are we dealing with an out-of-control leader, or a politician who uses excess as a weapon of power?
A sensitive and politically explosive debate has returned forcefully in the United States: is Donald Trump truly unstable, or is he consciously playing the role of an extreme leader to impose fear, obedience and public domination? According to an article in Corriere della Sera, the discussion has been reignited after a series of outbursts that have shocked even parts of the conservative camp itself.
The final spark was a post on Truth Social, since deleted, in which Trump compared himself to the healing Jesus. Then came even more serious statements: the threat that “an entire civilization will die tonight,” in reference to Iran, as well as attacks on the Pope, whom he called weak against crime and incompetent in foreign policy. For many critics, these are no longer simply electoral provocations, but signals of increasingly unpredictable behavior.
The White House has denied the allegations, while Trump himself continues to portray himself as a “genius” and claims to have passed every cognitive test. But the debate is no longer limited to Democrats, TV satirists or mental health experts commenting from afar. According to the article, former Trump allies, right-wing figures, retired military personnel, diplomats and former American and foreign officials are also expressing doubts.
A Reuters/Ipsos poll cited by Corriere showed that in February, about 61% of respondents considered Trump "increasingly unpredictable with age," while the perception of his mental capacity and ability to deal with complex challenges had declined significantly compared to 2023. This shows that the problem is not just moral or stylistic, but is turning into a matter of state credibility.
Even more significant is the fact that the criticism does not come only from the left. Marjorie Taylor Greene, once one of Trump’s most aggressive supporters, has supported the use of the 25th Amendment, arguing that threats to destroy Iranian civilization were not “harsh rhetoric” but nonsense. Other voices on the far right have also spoken in the same vein, describing Trump as deranged and no longer fully functional.
Yet within the Republican Party and the US Congress, loyalty to Trump remains almost total. This reinforces the other thesis of the debate: that Trump may not necessarily be “crazy,” but is extraordinarily skilled at using exaggeration, insults, personal myth, and verbal intimidation as instruments of power. On this reading, he is not an accident of the system, but its most brutal product.
More broadly, this story is not just about one man's temperament. It raises a fundamental question for American democracy: how far can a president's behavior be tolerated when the line between political spectacle, narcissism, and institutional danger begins to blur? Corriere recalls that doubts about the mental state of American presidents are not new, but in Trump's case they are combined with a style of governance that fuels conflict, transforms crisis into method, and turns provocation into strategy. /Pamphlet
Ai eshte nje I krisur Jo thjesht I cmendur! Vetem dhelper e zgjuar nuk eshte trampi,SE Po te ishte nuk do Kishte arritur gjendja Deri ketu!
Donald Tramp është një politikan gjenial, sikurse hiqet. Kur koha i kërkon, ata(gjenitë) shfaqen.
Lum si ne qe kemi nje "inteligjent" qe vlereson nje "gjeni", sa u "emocionova".
Me kujtohen ata zinxhiret qe ishin ne mode, i perdornin djemte e rinj e i rrotullonin ne gisht dekeda te shkuara. Pra brezi yne e perdorte shpesh shprehjen, dridhe zinxhirin.
Tony! Ju të punësuarët në Angli, mbani për gjeni Toni Blerin (këshilltari i qeverisë shqiptare). Ku e shikon mungesën e koherencës time? Nëse më konsideron Trumpist, më bën nder. Unë sikurse edhe Ti, e kemi Kombin Shqiptar të Parin. Unë Kombin Amerikan e kam të Dytin. Ti e ke kombin Anglez të Dytin. Dhe ndoshta SHBA të Tretin.
Me duket se Anglisht flitej shume e shume shekuj ne Angli para se te vinin Englezet atje. Vete Amerika ka 40% Gjermane popullate ta dish mire. Kam pare neper intervista o krenaria e Amerikes kur pyesin rinine, cfare gjuhe flasin Amerikanet, pergjigja eshte American language. Ti je turpi i Amerikes e gjeja me e mire eshte shko mbrapsht ku je lindur e ha noj bauke maisri me zhaize or tai. Komb do te thote nyje ne Shqip, i lidhur fort, i bere nje. Une kam vetem nje komb ate qe me fali jeten gjuhen edukaten moralin e do vdes me nje. Kombesia eshte tjeter e shtetesia eshte tjeter. Me duket se me ate idhullin tend po tallet bota. Te te them shko hap syte e merru me libra nuk ta them dot se gdheja nuk gdhendet.
