Observations from Tony Schwartz, ghostwriter of Art of the Deal
.....what Schwartz regards as one of Trump’s most essential characteristics: “He has no attention span.”
....He asked Trump to describe his childhood in detail. After sitting for only a few minutes in his suit and tie, Trump became impatient and irritable. He looked fidgety, Schwartz recalls, “like a kindergartner who can’t sit still in a classroom.” Even when Schwartz pressed him, Trump seemed to remember almost nothing of his youth, and made it clear that he was bored. Far more quickly than Schwartz had expected, Trump ended the meeting.
....it’s impossible to keep him focussed on any topic, other than his own self-aggrandizement, for more than a few minutes, and even then . . . ” Schwartz trailed off, shaking his head in amazement. He regards Trump’s inability to concentrate as alarming in a Presidential candidate. “If he had to be briefed on a crisis in the Situation Room, it’s impossible to imagine him paying attention over a long period of time,” he said.
....Schwartz believes that Trump’s short attention span has left him with “a stunning level of superficial knowledge and plain ignorance.” He said, “That’s why he so prefers TV as his first news source—information comes in easily digestible sound bites.” He added, “I seriously doubt that Trump has ever read a book straight through in his adult life.” During the eighteen months that he observed Trump, Schwartz said, he never saw a book on Trump’s desk, or elsewhere in his office, or in his apartment.
"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."
The fact is that Trump can do a lot of rallies in a week and for 1-2 hours at a time. Not sure anybody with a short attention span can do that.

If he had a short attention span like Schwartz said it would show in the debates as well. Somebody with ADD would show very quickly in that environment.
White House national security adviser H.R. McMaster reportedly said President Trump had the intelligence of a "kindergartner" and called him an "idiot" and a "dope" during a private dinner over the summer in Washington.
Sources told BuzzFeed that McMaster mocked Trump’s intelligence during a dinner in July with Safra Catz, the CEO of software company Oracle.
A source told BuzzFeed that Catz “said the conversation was so inappropriate that it was jaw-dropping.”
McMaster also reportedly mocked the president’s intelligence to another source in private, saying Trump didn’t have the brainpower needed to grasp the issues the National Security Council addresses. The source was unaware of the national security adviser’s remarks at the July dinner, which took place at a local restaurant.
"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."

A guy who doesn't understand the science asked a question if it was possible to make it work in the body. He didn't push for it. He just asked a question. Dr. Birx said the next day it wasn't a bad question. We do put extremely poisonous disinfectants in the body all the time with shots(safely) but not any type of bleach that I know of.

I can do the same silly nonsense in regards to Obama. Obama's brother said unflattering things about him. WTF cares? Look how Obama pronounced corpsman, said there was an Austrian language and thought Hawaii was part of Asia. I'm not concerned with all of that so much. What does concern me was that he thought ISIS was the JV team and gave billions to one of the top terrorist nations in the world that probably cost lives.
Mattis also rebuked Trump. Trump made a few asinine remarks about Mattis and Mattis went off on him. Their relationship went downhill when Trump wanted to alter trade deals with Europe and Mattis didn't want to.
You have to think too that a lot of these people look at opportunities. If Trump gets rid of someone that person knows he can can go right to the media and say Trump's stupid, unfit, danger to the Constitution, etc.., and the media/liberals will lap it up.

The best way to stop a bad guy with a gun is to make sure he doesn’t get a gun.
