For those who are unaware, psychiatrists are medical doctors. They prescribe drugs. Psychologists help to evaluate and provide mental therapy.

In their opinion, since they aren’t diagnosing Trump “in a specific way” in their various publications and comments, everything is fair game...I seem to recall reading somewhere that if a prizefighter gets into a street fight with someone and punches him, his conduct is held to be much more serious because of the special training and skills he has developed, and he could be charged with attempted murder under certain circumstances rather than mere assault, for instance - so should it be with psychiatrists making diagnostic and prognostic statements from watching television - their statements could be seen as carrying much more weight and potentially doing more harm than the typical man on the street because of their professional backgrounds - they should be held to much stricter standards....

We psychologically evaluate police, federal agents and certain military to ensure they are “fit for duty”. They have the power to impact many lives and we realized it’s best to make sure in advance that they aren’t crazy. Before an incident happens in the field.

So, why is the same thing not done for all politicians prior to getting on the ballot? These people have the power to change laws that affect millions, start wars and launch nukes.

I’m not saying President Trump has to go. I just think this should be part of a medical screening for anyone wanting to be President.

I believe it is unprofessional to diagnose a person without a thorough examination. However, there are cases where it is obvious that the individual has psychiatric problems. This was the case with the former Harvard lecturer Billy Boggs. Ivy League psychiatrist Dr. Bandy X. Lee is showing definite signs that she is a coprocephalic.

Is Madam Secretary's President Dalton Unfit to Serve? Keith Carradine, EP Preview Sunday's Oddly Prescient Hour


If you’re not very familiar with the 25th Amendment to the United States Constitution, you might want to review this bit from Section 4 — it’ll become very relevant during this week’s Madam Secretary:

Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.

[...]

 

The Madam Secretary episode, titled “Sound and Fury,” was pitched in October and filmed in November — long before Michael Wolff’s recently published book Fire and Fury kicked up discussion that President Donald Trump might be suffering mental difficulties, something Trump has vehemently denied in a tweet. The CBS series’ prescience when it comes to anticipating national and international incidents has become something of an inside joke among its cast and crew; star Tim Daly once joked to TVLine that “Sometimes people will say to me we’re ripped from the headlines, which is actually not true. The headlines are ripped from our show.”

“I stand in awe, repeatedly, as to how brilliantly they anticipated the human condition,” Carradine says, pointing out that the series is “aspirational” and therefore unconnected to anything actually taking place at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. “So here we have a chance to show, yet again on our little show, how a situation might be dealt with if there was a question about the health of our Commander in Chief.”


IIRC, the Dems have been pitching 25th Amendment scenarios since mid-2017, if not before.

So Hollywood, don't urinate on my back and tell me that it's raining.

Yet they said nothing about Pelosi? She probably is operating at less than 10% mental capacity. And what about John McShame? The guy has a brain tumor and nobody is questioning his cognitive function?

I’m still betting that if somebody dug deep enough they would find this “Bandy X Lee” is on the payroll of Chinese or North Korean intelligence as an Agitprop agent, paid to spread dissent in the US.

Psychiatrists and psychologists are akin to Witch Doctors and hacks.

They approach the human mind, heart, and soul without any Biblical reference to the reality of our condition. They make up "syndromes" at the drop of a hat, and treat every "condition" with a cocktail of drugs that often leave their patients in a worse condition than when they started "treatment."

They discount the influence and actions of demons. Not every human being is a victim of demonic possession or oppression, but many are - and the APA would never, ever acknowledge this Biblical truth.

Psychiatrists and psychologists might as well wave chicken bones at their patients - it would probably have the same effect as their current "treatments."


I don't discount the healing value of talking about problems and facing them. Heck, Alcoholics Anonymous does that and has a pretty good track records helping those who commit to it.

But most of what these charlatans in the "mental health industry" practice is fraud, smoke, and mirrors - to the tune of Billions of dollars per year.

Yes you are.
The simple fact that you failed to include Senators and Representatives speaks volumes.

And therein you will find too many mentally challenged and truly stupid individuals. The mental state of the president is irrelevant if the people supporting him or attempting to destroy him are pervert fruit loops; e.g. Pelosis...

I specifically said all “politicians” which includes everyone from city council to Senators.

But especially the President due to his power to initiate military actions
