I'm sorry. But the interview with psychiatrist Dr. Bandy Lee is really good. Normally these interviews can't keep my attention. But I followed this one to the end. It's an hour and five minutes. Grab a drink, settle in, and listen to a psychiatrist who knew tRUMP was nuts from the beginning. A very dangerous kind of crazy.

I think his supporters (within and outside government) are also crazy. And also dangerous.
It's too late in the day for me to listen to something that long. It's after 5pm, the news begins at 6pm and I still have several blogs to read through.
I'll listen to the whole thing later, but I'm afraid it'll just confirm the obvious.
Not only is Trump nuts, but all his enablers and cult members are too.
I agree with Debra ... they're ALL nuts. What I found interesting in this broadcast was how the gag order, the Goldwater thing, came to be when No. 45 got elected.
Being deemed mentally unbalanced without personal examination by a qualified professional, is just the uneducated perception of an outside viewer. This person may be educated in the field, but she herself said a personal examination is a whole different thing. I have no doubt Trump would be considered nuts, but then I'm just a bartender. There is plenty of evidence that he is a criminal.
The exact definition of normal depends on who's running the asylum.
As I just read in your sidebar :-)
River - I hate to put out stuff this long.
Bill - I think you'll like this.
Deb - Totally agree.
Shirley - Lots of stuff in this that I didn't realize.
Jerry - I'm pretty sure she is educated in forensic psychology which makes her the perfect person to analyze tRUMP without meeting him. I think she said there is more than enough video of him to do exactly that.
Stu - Ha. It's surprising how many people don't read the sidebars and profiles. I do all the time. Not that I remember much.
Sue - I forgot to check spam jail first. ... I agree on both counts.
This is like saying Trump's son has a mental problem because he was seen fidgeting at public events.
Again, she was the first one to say observing is not the same as in depth interviewing.
Jerry - But she also said that there is enough tRUMP video footage out there that it's better than a face to face interview.
While Jerry has a point regarding being given a formal diagnosis, my 35+ years in the mental health field (preferably called Behavioral Health these days) make it clear to me that tRUMP is mentally ill. My coworkers (psychiatrists, doctors, advanced practice nurses, social workers, and counselors of all types) have said it for years. It's been common knowledge to many in New Jersey and New York for decades. And there is such a wealth of video and interview material out there that a comprehensive interview by a psychiatrist, while important, would be a formality.
That, of course, is separate from his criminality. That's been common knowledge too.
Allen - So then what's wrong with all the crazies that back tRUMP?! Should we open enough mental institutions to house them all?
I actually watched this when it was first uploaded. It was really interesting.
Martha - I thought so too. Like I said above, it actually held my attention.
And evil. You forgot evil
Evil. Dangerous.
Cloudia - Your comments "And evil. You forgot evil " and "Evil. Dangerous." didn't show up on this post. I got emails on both of them but they are not... wait, let me check something else...
Cloudia - They were in comments waiting for moderation but were not in the awaiting moderation folder. First time I've seen that screwup.
