I’m not a psychiatrist but I can take a look.
From what I know of some people around me, I think Trump really is mentally ill. Those people usually can’t see what is reality to other people and they live in a reality what others can’t understand. We can make a jokes about his behavior and comments, but we have to understand that what he says and does is not a joke to him, it’s reality where he lives.
I agree that he is dumb and senile and all that, but he definitely is a mentally unstable and ill too. And this makes him and his cult very dangerous to not only the people of US, but also to all the world.
His actions are more directed than he immediately appears. He receives political support for his seemingly inane actions, monetary support for his atrocities, stacks politics in his favor through debasement. He’s not politically savvy or crazy, he’s just willing to use the tools afforded to him in ways that most people would reasonably consider to be major violations by every conceivable definition.
He incarcerates and deports statistically oppositional citizens to prevent them from voting against him. He steals money because he’s certain no one will stop him. He sells the US to donors to maintain his base of support.
He’s not all there in the head, but is clear headed enough to seem somewhere between “he really shouldn’t be driving anymore” and “it’s good that he can still do his hobbies.”
TLDR: he’s just old, coddled, dumb, awful, and maneuvering politically in ways that benefit only him and like 60 other people. Still sane, for now
