Is that a clinical diagnosis?

It's an observation. He lies even when it would have benefited him to tell the truth. Totally stupid lies. Like saying his uncle taught the Unibomber. Like saying he ended wars when even the participants say that he did not. He lies constantly. He can't help himself.

I'll grant you it sounds very medicalized.

Close. There is a clinical symptom called pathological lying. But even that isn't a standalone diagnosis. So far as I know, it's not in the DSM. Don't have a copy, but maybe it's online (Barbarian checks) Apparently not. But here:

But then I suspect that diagnosis is from some of the same people that are calling him 'Hitler'.

I think Mussolini would be a better fit, myself.

I'd say there is derangement going on but that isn't allowed in CF.

It's hard to say how much of it is a mental health problem (if any) and how much of it is just progressive cognitive decline. His people are not releasing his medical records, so we don't really know.

I think I can say that Trump lives rent free in too many heads.

From his behavior, it seems that Obama and Biden are currently sharing his head. He seems devastated that he lost the election to Biden, and for some reason, he's obsessed with Obama. As Howard Stern predicted, being president has been very bad for his mental health.

Bottom line, most people in a "he said/she said" situation, would believe whoever was disagreeing with Trump. By August of last year, about 36% of Americans considered Trump to be honest.

The mental health problem I was referring to is not something Trump is suffering from, but that so many other people are suffering from, being so worried about Trump that they are missing out on a considerable amount of normal life trying to convince the rest of the world that Trump is Mussolini or Hitler or has some sort of mental disorder. Take a breath.

He's falling asleep in meetings,forgetting where he is, convinced that he cut drug prices 1000%, and thinks windmills cause cancer. And he's got the launch codes.

Your cortisol levels must be through the roof because of Trump living rent free in your head. You may not survive until Trump's retirement. If, by chance you do survive, what are you going to do if, again by chance, some Republican gets elected to be the next president? Transfer all of your negative feelings to that new guy? Then it's cortisol overload for four more years.
