The tactic of using mental competence against President Trump by Democrats/leftists is the same tactic used by communists, both use the same playbook.

Amen to that.
Good news, this. The psychiatric profession isn’t known for conservative principles — nor should it be, as medicine should ideally be apolitical. You note I say “ideally” here.
But any signs of good sense from entities we might reasonably assign to the center-left is certainly welcome.
To: jazusamo
Well, better than Arkancide (if it concerned them making comments about another particular public figure).

I would think a case could be made that releasing a diagnosis is a HIPAA violation, whether the “patient” is a public figure or not.

"Using psychiatry for political or self-aggrandizing purposes is stigmatizing for our patients and negatively impacts our profession. But I can use anthropology, geography, political science and gaydar and still say that Barky was a limp-wristed, marxist, Kenyan, right?

The APA should be worried. The more shrinks are put in the limelight the more it becomes apparent that they are incompetent frauds.

Agreed, and for a licensed psychiatrist to make a diagnosis without examining a patient is a gross unethical act, one that in my view should cause their license to be revoked.

Bummer for the media.
Idolatry of Trump’s sure insanity has been bread and butter in the clicks and ratings of the Lefty subversives controlling the media.

Perhaps all these psychiatrists need a once over. . .maybe a twice over. . .maybe an expulsion from the profession. I have found over the years (including college days) that many counselors go into the profession because they themselves have problems. . .not necessarily to help others.

Personally, I think Dr Lee should be formally admonished for unethical behavior and Yale should sever any ties to her

I have a weakness for writers that use the word “whom” correctly. They restore my faith in whomanity.

Amen, I couldn’t agree more.
It’s evident she’s all about herself and not the well being of her patient or anyone else.
