10:45 AM: Trump lashes out at Schiff, calls him 'mentally deranged.'

Source: Washington Post.

Trump lashed out at Rep. Adam B. Schiff (D-Calif.), the lead impeachment manager, writing on Twitter on Thursday that his congressional district is "in terrible shape."

"He is a corrupt pol who only dreams of the Impeachment Hoax," Trump said. "In my opinion he is mentally deranged!"

In his tweet, Trump referenced a Fox News interview earlier Thursday with Drew Pinsky, an addiction medicine specialist and media personality who had previously said he was considering running against Schiff because of homelessness in his district.

During Thursday's interview, Pinsky, known as "Dr. Drew," said he is "categorically not running" for Schiff's seat.

By people. Calling the guy I voted for mentally deranged actually attacks the voters who chose him.

It secures Adam Schiff will be around longer than trump.

he probably can't understand a word that Schiff says, so it might sound deranged to him. He thought the constitution sounded like a different language.

Complete projection, as others have pointed out. Trump himself is deranged, and Schiff is eminently sane. It is hard to believe the reality of the unhinged Trump. You couldn't make this stuff up. Trump is a dangerous clown that needs to be removed from office.

The bags under Turd's eyes are pink; they stand out quite starkly on the Oompaloompa Orange background.

But Rep. Schiff has far more important things to do with his time.
