Apartisan Mental UnHealth

Not that I'm such a great fan,
but I was just now taken by surprise
to read the Republican Nominee for U.S. CEO
has somehow raised questions about his mental health.

Really!?

I live in the U.S.
I have questioned the mental health of any candidate
for elected office
hoping to live with resilient mental health
within the partisan walls of public aggressive congression

This question has been on my mind
for about as long as I could spell Washenton and Clumbian.

This question has evolved more recently.
Now I ask if this candidate presents
more bipolar passive-aggressive
or full-out ecocidal psychotic-rabid?

Usually we get systemic RightWing trauma
here in the U.S.,
which could be why we continue with more of an angry red plutocracy of wealth
than a cool green democracy 
of, by, and for, cooperative residents of mental health.
