To some of us, this will come as no surprise at all. There could be a new addition to the next DSM perhaps, called John Barron syndrome (compulsion to imitate oneself while pretending to be someone else).

I don't believe anything Trump claims about his wonderful amazing bigly wonderful attributes "I hire the best people" is perhaps the most comical yet. It wouldn't surprise me if he claimed to be the world champion of spelling and grammar at this stage :O

Like Stormy Daniels changing what she said in a signed statement, the doctor has changed his story about having written the letter himself. And like Stormy claiming to be frightened while going out of his way to make headline accusations. Is doctor strange a copycat?

Nah, if Trump had written it the report would say Trump has an IQ of 590, and the biggest “button” of any patient I have ever examined.

Another new DSM possibility: presidential mendacity syndrome...

That depends on the chain of events. Like if he didn't know at the time it took place and found out later.

But a president lying is nothing new. Might as well call it Tricky Dick or Slick Willie syndrome (wow those both sound pornographic).

What should disappoint some folks is Giuliani saying it was all perfectly legal since no campaign money was involved.

Also what I found amusing was Stormy's lawyer talking at length about how speeches he was. And him saying Americans should be outraged at Trump as if that was a new concept.

Had the doctor actually written the medical report, it doubtlessly would have made mention of Trump's micropenis.

That's why he's called Trump: he trumps everyone. Did anyone seriously expect doctors to get a free pass or something? :lol:

My favorites ....

"I'm speaking with myself [about foreign policy], ‘because I have a very good brain’".

"I know words. I have the best words".

"Is Donald Trump an intellectual? Trust me, I'm like a smart person".

Downfall often comes after hubris.

It would not be unusual if he did. When I was a young person I worked as a medical secretary for 7-8 years. A medical statement “from the doctor” would start by me getting a message, calling the patient back, asking what they wanted it to say, then *I* would write the statement, the doctor would make edits, I would call the patient back and read it to them to make sure it was okay, and then I’d either adjust it again, so on and so forth, or print it off for the doctor to sign.

Sometimes they would request very specific wording for legal purposes. Or the patient would just be high maintenance.

All the doctor does is make sure (s)he is not signing anything untrue according to the evidence on file so that (s)he doesn’t get sued.
