VIDEOAfter years of psychiatrist Bandy X. Lee diagnosing from afar that President Donald Trump is mentally ill, Yale University finally got around to firing here four years too late for her more than obvious violation of the "Goldwater Rule" which prohibits shrinks from diagnosing public figures without a personal diagnosis. Lee has become quite the camera hog over the past few years and has been interviewed many times. Here are just a few of her career lowlights from those self-promoting interviews. I'm not a professional shrink so I won't be violating the Goldwater Rule by suggesting that there is something...

"We at the APA call for an end to psychiatrists providing professional opinions in the media about public figures whom they have not examined, whether it be on cable news appearances, books, or in social media," the organization said in a statement issued this week.

Support mental health or I'll kill you! New Yorker magazine seems to have this deep psychological need for President Donald Trump to be officially called crazy by psychiatrists. That need is so urgent that their August 23 article by Jeannie Suk Gersen on this subject almost exactly echoes their May 22 story by Jane Mayer on the same topic.
