Lawmakers briefed by Yale psychiatrist on Trump's mental health: report
By Brett Samuels - 01/03/18 09:23 PM EST

More than a dozen lawmakers last month met with a Yale University psychiatry professor for two days to discuss President Trumpâ€™s fitness for office, Politico reported Wednesday.

Dr. Bandy X. Lee reportedly met with the group of lawmakers on Dec. 5 and Dec. 6 and warned them the president is â€œgoing to unravel.â€ All of the lawmakers in attendance were Democrats, except for one Republican senator.

â€œWe feel that the rush of tweeting is an indication of his falling apart under stress. Trump is going to get worse and will become uncontainable with the pressures of the presidency,â€ Lee told Politico.

The Hill is pulling out all the stops. Next they'll dig up Ann Landers and ask her for advice on Trumps past humps.

@mystery-ak

You know I said this about his mental state many months ago and still believe it. His medical exam will be physical, not mental. Trump will never let anything medical be known that isn't "super great", the "best", the "very best".

What sad, pathetic comedy. This reminds me when Conyers held 'hearings' the last time they were in the minority in the basement of the capitol. These people are in full projectionist delusion mode.

Trump gives them ammunition daily when he acts like a lunatic.

Yes, the tweets can be childish and he often rambles when speaking off prompter, but this professional is being anything but that, making a diagnosis without a firsthand evaluation.

Trump sends the Leftist filth like these "Academics" off the rails when he does his act. It is a thing of beauty and majesty.

I also enjoy that he makes people cry in despair into their Cheerios every morning.....just like you do.

Everyone knew Trump was Psycho since day 1.

But the choice was between an insane delusional person and a treasonous ultra crooked bitch.

The American People Chose. And neither was not an option.

Stop your blinding me with Trumps bald head. The purple is reflecting off the bald spots. Glaring.

Psychiatrist Who Diagnosed Reagan As An Idiot Bilked For $3 Million In Nigerian Email Scam.

"I heard the same stuff about George W. 'ChimpyBushHitler' 10 years ago"

[snip]

Louis Gottschalk, a neuroscientist, is the founding chairman of the Department of Psychiatry and Human Behavior at UCI College of Medicine. He gained national prominence by announcing in 1987 that President Reagan had been suffering from diminished mental ability as early as 1980.

He came to this conclusion by using the Gottschalk-Gleser scales, an internationally used diagnostic tool he helped develop for charting impairments in brain function, to measure speech patterns in Reagan's 1980 and 1984 presidential debates

I am not exactly clear what you are fishing for here. Donald Trump makes a fool out of himself on twitter and lawmakers use it. He should stop tweeting. He has given them the ammunition they want. I have stated when Trump does good things like supporting Israel. My purpose isn't in politics that is for sure. Beyond that I am not going to entertain you.

Had a real quick peek at The Dangerous Case Of Donald Trump, edited by the Doc in question Dr Bandy X Lee, at Amazon.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dangerous_Case_of_Donald_Trump

The Forward by Robert J. Lifton is Titled:

"Our Witness To Malignant Normality"

And he's Off the Rails by paragraph 3, which opens with:

"I came to the idea of Malignant Normality in my study of Nazi Doctors."

3 paragraphs in and Trump is suffering from a mutated strain of Nazism.

Paragraph 4 jumps to the CIA using Psychiatrists and Psychologists to torture people.

Paragraph 5, comes the weasel-speak, But I'm not calling Trump a Nazi.

Paragraph 6, he's bloviating about political and ethical normal, IE:, This Is NOT what we're used to.

Paragraph 7 opens with, "But that does not mean we are helpless." Another flip flop.

Paragraph 10 concludes with:

"There have also been parallel examples in recent history who have promoted equally dangerous forms of normality in rejecting climate change."

And wait till you get to the Introduction by Dr Bandy X Lee herself, solid, zircon encrusted 24 karat, self aggrandizing tinsel.

"Possibly the oddest experience in my career as a Psychiatrist has been that the only people not allowed to speak the truth about an issue are those who know the most about it."

How? HOW do you as a Professional "Know The Most About It?"

Is it because of the deep and rich, rigorously scientistic heritage your entire field's knowledge base has been manured in?

https://psychroaches.blogspot.com/search/label/Theosophy

I'm sure the rest of Dr Bandy X Lee's book would provide similarly entertaining Buster Keaton and Laurel and Hardy comedic relief, but since having my head explode isn't covered by my insurance I'll leave this IDEATE's rubbish to braver souls than myself to explore.

Unless a medical expert has examined Trump and reviewed his medical records, anything opinion he or she gives is worthless.

Trump is supposed to undergo a physical. Maybe a mental exam at the same time would be in order.

Best response to an employer ordered Mental Exam I've ever seen.

The employee was a mental health professional herself. So, she knew the game inside and out.

She walked in, sat down, opened a cookbook and started reading the shrink recipes from it.

Shrink complained about her blocking him with this stunt.

She told him, "Look, I know who you are and what you do, and if you think I'm going to tell you Anything about myself, You're the one who is nuts."
