He has a secret personality, not a hidden one that even he is unaware of like 'Cybil', no split personality in senator craig, only a secret personality.

A double life, yes, a split personality, no.

1. All "good" politicians have a split personality

Personality A: What they want to impersonate in order to be elected.

Personality B: What they really are.


As with all mind tricks, if you live or tell a lie long enough it becomes the truth.
The mind starts to accept it.
I don't doubt that many politicians really believe they are the public person they impersonate.
Most or in fact not or even the oposite in private.

6. It's called "two-faced," not "split personality."
Too bad some of 'em can't face up to it.

8. Not a split personality, but denial leads to some pretty tortured mental states
He seems pretty adamant that he is not gay, and as such it becomes problematic to acknowledge his own conduct, even to himself.

11. I have thought he had split personality due to
his denials since the 80's. It is the way he denies. It appears to me, that the one denying really believes what he is saying.
