T-Rump Still ‘A Dangerous Personality’ — Forensic Psychiatrist

May 1, 2021

The T-Rump’s 100 days out of office is a reflection of really being pathetic, and would be sad if he wasn’t such a horrendous, psychotic monster incapable of even slightly-acting like a normal human being. Instead of any kind of legitimate post-presidential action, the T-Rump working out of a converted bridal suite at Mar-A-Lago is apparently spending most of his time whining about being a loser.

Just this past week, he dropped into a gathering at his trumped-up resort and publicly blathered about the recount now being performed in Arizona, conducted by a lopsided outfit called the Cyber Ninjas, and he wouldn’t surprised if they’d find “thousands and thousands and thousands of votes” — a display of a way-mentally-disturbed asshole:

A view towards the psychotic Twitter response (via UPROXX this morning):

In that regard of the T-Rump as psycho, a good interview at Raw Story today with Dr. Bandy X. Lee, a forensic psychiatrist, also author of “Profile of a Nation, Trump’s Mind, America’s Soul.”
The safety of our nation depends on politics and psychiatry being intertwined — some snips:

“We associate Nazism or Stalinism with certain countries, while portraying Adolf Hitler, Idi Amin, or Pol Pot as such exceptional “monsters” that they would never be replicated on our soil, when the psychological characteristics they display are quite common — and it was handing them power that was exceptional.
If we fail to understand the personality types that relentlessly seek but cannot handle power, which transforms them into grotesque megalomaniacs who run their countries to the ground, we will forever be vulnerable to them.
We need to engage those who are best poised to detect these signs early, before they entrench themselves in the political structure, and that would be mental health experts.

“When present, we need to point out elements of pathology in the culture that push individuals into violence, even when they may not have initially been inclined. George W. Bush might be another example of someone who was not a dangerous personality, but he was used for dangerous purposes.
When I was asked to comment on the Iraq War at the World Economic Forum, I focused not on him but on our nation as suffering from a “narcissistic personality disorder” writ large.
I called out Donald Trump because he is a dangerous personality, but he was simultaneously also the personification and instrument of a dangerous culture.
People have asked me to comment on Joe Biden, but I have not, since he exhibits no concerning signs of relevance to doing his job, although whether he can refrain from the pressures of our violent military-industrial complex remains to be seen.

“One of the reasons why the American Psychiatric Association’s silencing of mental health experts under the Trump administration was so alarming was because it stripped the public of its one defense against victimization — and this was after it looked the other way throughout Barack Obama’s presidency when psychiatrists were constantly diagnosing him incorrectly with “narcissistic personality disorder” on Fox News.
It also said nothing about those who incorrectly diagnosed Trump — as long as the diagnosis was favorable. It only aggressively shut down conscientious mental health professionals who were not unethically diagnosing but responsibly alerting about the dangers, since we were inconvenient to a dangerous government.

“There is an epidemic of narcissistic and sociopathic personalities in our culture, even more disproportionately in leadership positions. This is a ubiquitous problem that is compromising organizational goals, hurting associates, and harming society.
While psychological issues are understandably a difficult topic in the social movement world, where we often believe we ought to focus on social and economic problems and not make “ad hominem attacks,” we must recognize this is a real problem. We need to be informed, recognize red flags, and set boundaries for our daily protection.”

Hopefully, America dodged a bullet with the most-graphic horrors of the T-Rump (though, his corrupt, shitty work within government will linger a goodly while) with no nuclear war — he is a mass murderer, however, in his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.
He therefore did leave behind a dead zone:

If we let them, maybe psychiatrists are our fall-back Johnny Smiths…

This is my favorite of the T-Rump mugs, though, ‘favorite‘ does not mean in any form or fashion, as in, ‘my favorite movie,’ or ‘my favorite song.’
It’s more of an anti-appreciation/like.

And aptly titled, ‘Basic Shapes,‘ by caricaturist/illustrator Chong Jit Leong (and found here), and displays the elemental form of a purloined sociopath — a bloated profile of flatulent bile and arrogant ignorance.
