Psychiatrists: Trump A Danger And Unfit For Office

 

In an alarming and urgent open letter, thirty-six mental health experts stated that the unhinged Malignant Fascist is "mentally unstable" and an existential threat to U.S. security.  The letter, entitled "Medical Concerns about President Donald J. Trump and His Fitness for Office," lists several clear signs of dangerous mental decline and delusion, including disorganized and tangential speech, grandiose and delusional beliefs (including assertions of infallibility), severely impaired judgement and impulse control, significant loss of self control, and escalating violence.  The letter states:

"Prior to the presidential election in the Fall of 2024, a statement assessing Donald J. Trump’s mental fitness for the presidency was issued. At that time, serious signs of cognitive decline were identified, and in our expert opinion, these signs warranted disqualification from office. It is our professional opinion, based on previous and ongoing assessments, that Donald Trump’s mental state since our 2024 statement has deteriorated even further. [snip]

It is our professional opinion that the behaviors of Donald Trump, tragically, are neither momentary lapses nor political theater. It is our professional opinion that they reflect a rapidly worsening, reality-untethered, increasingly dangerous decline. If we were called upon under the 25th Amendment to judge the President’s present ability to discharge the duties of his office, we would have to conclude that he lacks the capacity to do so.

For the reasons cited above, emphasizing that he presents a clear and present danger to our country and to the world, it is our expert opinion that Donald J. Trump is mentally unfit to be the President of the United States, and that steps to remove him from office must be undertaken with the greatest urgency, with vital responsibilities on the shoulders of those in positions of leadership."

Rhode Island Senators Sheldon Whitehouse and Jack Reed entered the letter into the Congressional Record last week, with a press release following on May 5.  Corporate media has an obligation to cover this matter, given the MF's constant bragging about "acing" his dementia screenings and the signs listed above by the mental health experts, but it's unlikely that they will.
