Smollett obviously has mental problems. The very fact that he came up with such a nutty idea as blaming Trump supporters for assaulting him wearing red MAGA hats indicates that he's not all there, mentally.

Finally, his denial that he committed the crime when it is obvious to everyone on Earth that he did it shows that he is not driving a V-8.
