We all know that if anyone needs their head examined, it’s Donald Trump. But right now he’s telling one key section of the American public to get their heads examined if they don’t vote for him. Of course, he’s also told Jewish people, and on Monday he anointed Catholic Democrats with this honor.
He was speaking to supporters in Mint Hill, North Carolina Wednesday, and once again the topic was trade and his intentions to impose tariffs on imports, Mediaite reports. Where he voiced a few concerns about “our seniors.”
“Our seniors have been devastated by inflation,” the ex-president said. “We’re gonna have no tax on Social Security for our seniors. If any senior doesn’t vote for Trump, we’re gonna have to send you to a psychiatrist to have your head examined.”
Of course, Trump has dropped this line on other unsuspecting people in other demographics who aren’t likely to vote for him. He’s regularly chided Jewish voters who don’t support him, suggesting they should have their heads examined. But this went from bad to worse when he preemptively blamed Jewish people if he loses the upcoming election to Vice President Kamala Harris.
“I’m not going to call this as a prediction, but in my opinion, the Jewish people would have a lot to do with a loss,” he told a gathering of conservative Jewish voters last week.

Because why take any responsibility for your malevolently racist and anti-Semitic behavior when you can blame people from any demographic that you choose? I’m sorry but blaming Jewish folks for a loss he could have avoided by acting like a normal human being is anti-Semitic. As reported by The Associated Press, Trump has repeatedly echoed Jewish stereotypes and, most notably, hosted two notoriously anti-Semitic dinner guests at Mar-a-Lago during Thanksgiving 2022.
But Democratic Catholics received special attention from Trump, who said “Any Catholic that votes for Comrade Kamala Harris should have their head examined.”
He lowered himself just enough during his speech Wednesday, to admit he lost the 2020 election. He’s done that before and then backtracked quickly to repeat his baseless position that the election was rigged against him.
In a post to X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday, Republicans Against Trump commented on Trump’s habit of telling people to get their heads examined.
“He started with Jews, then moved to Catholics, and now senior citizens. ‘If any senior doesn’t vote for Trump, we are gonna have to send you to a psychiatrist to have your head examined.'”

Social media users had thoughts, they did.
If anyone votes for Donald Trump you need to go to a psychiatrist to have your head examined.

“You know who else blamed the Jews for their misfortune?” @Jurgen80048425 asked.

History is inexorably heading back in the wrong direction. We have the phrase that “history repeats itself.” I’m going to include this quote by Karl Marx, who provided an addendum to this famous quote: “History repeats itself, first as a tragedy, then as a farce.” Despite whatever folks may think about Marx, he’s correct here.
Another Trump presidency would be a farce.
And I’m a Socialist, not a Communist, and “Comrade Kamala” is not a Communist either. She’s definitely in the Democrat camp. Trump wouldn’t know a Communist if one was standing right in front of him.
