President Donald Trump’s Twitter page can be an alarming and confusing place at the best of times. His latest instance of indecision over war or world peace has sparked questions about his mental health, however.
The president began his morning on Wednesday by warning Russia to “get ready” for “nice and new and ‘smart’” missiles that would soon be fired at Syria. Just a week ago, he talked about withdrawing US troops from the country, but that’s neither here nor there.

Less than an hour later, Trump followed up his threatening tweet by saying that he wants to improve US-Russia relations, asking for all nations to “work together” and calling for stopping the “arms race.”

The bizarre, lightning-quick turnaround on major foreign policy sparked a frenzy on Twitter, with many people questioning the president’s mental health. Some went as far as to suggest that he may be suffering from bipolar disorder.

President Trump, once a vocal critic of US military involvement in Syria, has taken to Twitter to warn Damascus and Moscow about incoming “smart” missiles. Is Trump’s slumping popularity a factor in his stunning policy reversal?
With approval ratings that struggle to stay above 40 percent, President Donald Trump may see military strikes in Syria as an opportunity to take advantage of a phenomenon known as the “Rally ‘round the flag” effect, a concept that there is increased popular support of the president during war, which is usually accompanied by reduced criticisms of governmental policies.

This 'effect' has benefitted numerous US administrations, dating back to former President John F. Kennedy’s popularity boost during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Former President George W. Bush was one of the last major American benefactors of the phenomenon. Before invading Iraq, Bush’s approval rating was around 55 percent. One month after the invasion, his popularity had jumped by 15 points.

Trump himself received an approval rating boost after launching dozens of Tomahawk missiles at Syria last April. The attack was even hailed by his critics on Capitol Hill and in the media as “presidential.”
