The man who co-authored Donald Trump’s signature book issued a stern warning about the president’s mental health.
Tony Schwartz, who co-wrote 1987′s The Art of the Deal with the future president, called Trump “delusional” in an interview with CNN’s Anderson Cooper.
He also asked if Trump is “crazy like a fox or just crazy,” then answered his own question:
“I think the overwhelming weight of evidence suggests that he’s just crazy. And not crazy, causal crazy. I’m talking about crazy ― I’m not a psychiatrist, so I actually can get away with saying this ― but crazy as a personality disorder.”
“Simple answer is, he says whatever he thinks serves him,” Schwartz said. “And while he’s saying it, he does believe it.”
With few legislative accomplishments under his belt, President Donald Trump has repeatedly turned to executive orders ― a tool once maligned by Republicans ― to undo much of former President Barack Obama’s regulatory legacy. While some have been consequential ― like approving the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline ― many of Trump’s orders have been symbolic, like one minimizing the “burden” of Obamacare regulations.
Trump appears to enjoy the act of signing executive orders and bills more than any of his recent predecessors. While other presidents have also ceremoniously signed documents, Trump regularly holds up his work for photo opportunities.
