Bryan, if I take you literally, then you know/interact with Forensic Psychiatrists? Please ask them why the American Psychiatric Assoc. (or whatever that collective's name is) came up with "The Goldwater Effect" and years ago forbade Psychiatrists from commenting on candidate's mental/emotional fitness for running for POTUS? Had the nation had a model, a repeating tutorial on narcissistic personality disorder, definition of a sociopath, and possibly most of all, defining gaslighting... would the democracy be in the peril it is in? The "basketful of deplorables" include Stephen Miller, Steve Bannon and on and on. Would there still be so many followers of that ilk? Would otherwise formerly sane Republicans have allowed themselves to kiss the ring? What if? What if? What if Psychiatrists had gathered and educated the populace long ago? Why not? Why not?
They didn't try hard enough, or long enough. Thanks for the link. I will read it. If they tried, it wasn't a broad, repeated "try" where enough of us could tune in. Many of us do pay attention and I've not seen enough "trying."
Civil commitment. So far, Trump has demonstrated that at a minimum he should have had to address competency to stand trial. IMHO at least three judges so far should have asked whether he was doing himself any favors by his contemptuous conduct.
If I were a candidate running against Trump, I'd have my panoply of physicians come forward to address mental and physical capacity to govern the country.
Biden had been travelling.... I'm susceptible to stuff like jet lag. I have "good insurance disease," thus see about 15 different specialists. A president has to have a similar medical record. Checked every time he travels.
Understand, Dr Lee & Professional friends have a program set up through Jthe uly 11 sentencing of Trump. Turbulence is expected Fasten All Seat Belts have been fastened.
Meanwhile, Dr. Lee dropped Chapter 11 of her new book at 7:31 am today, Sunday : "The Psychology of Trump Contagion:An Existential Threat to American Democracy & All Humankind"
Dr Lee new book is being sent to PAID Substack Subscriber like me. We are on Chapter 11 this morning.
They wrote a book. They could not get an audience in the media. They had a conference. Not sure why you would sit in judgement when you donтАЩt know how hard they tried
Christy, I do not sit in judgement of those who tried. I wrote about this initially just based on what I knew about the APA and obviously, I had low information until people here today informed me. Casting aspersions on those of us who don't know it all doesn't help. So many get their "news " from just one silo. I do not know it all. I appreciate all that I learned today on this board about Dr. Lee. I read further about her, and it is appalling that she has been treated this way. We subscribe to several Substack newsletters and try as much as possible to obtain facts. I'll be writing postcards this week and doing what I can.
ThatтАЩs awesome Carla! Just for clarification, in my language, this is very much a judgement: тАЬThey didn't try hard enough, or long enoughтАЭ. Great that you didnтАЩt intend it to be.
I do interact with active group of Forensic Psychiatrists.
The APA is the institutional enemy of this Team Led by Dr. Bandy Lee the ex-Yale Professor & worldwide expert known for her lectures on Violence. Dr. Lee is joined by nationally Forensic Psychiatrists as well.
This group of Psychiatrists take risks both personal physical & Professional risks but, their public political activity leading to the July 11 DJT Sentencing is now starting to appear. I just watched DON LEMONS' interview of Dr Lee: "Is Trump Mental ly Fit -- Dr. Bandy Lee on The Don Lemon Show".
FYI, Dr. Lee's professional attacker has been removed as President of the APA on other grounds. The APA has a long despicable record.
No worries Everybody; with others I had to help to calm a community of Forensic Psychiatrists on Saturday & those Docs are headed to the front lines.
Trump's sentencing is on 7/11.

They tried. There were MAGA psychiatrists trying to shut them up.
Dr. Bandy Lee even lost her job because of Dershowitz. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-shared-psychosis-of-donald-trump-and-his-loyalists/

For just 1 example see., "Investigation Concludes APA Colluded with Government to Enable Torture" at www.humanrightsclinic.law.harvard.edu.
Note the split screen interview of Dr. Lee as this group of Docs is Tech savy. Digital security protocols are in place.
More leading up to July 11.
Thank you. I am committed to trying my best to learn what I can to in some way attempt to preserve the democracy.
Many, millions of citizens are taking action as well.
