>>As part of her observations, Lee additionally claimed that “Trump’s mental health might lead to the extinction of the human species”

The Global Warmistas (who really are insane) would cheer that as a win for Mutha Erf.

Who is the guilty Senator?

[bigbob]

When he stumbles and needs to be tossed into a van, I’ll be worried.

[Eddie01]

Now let me think...

Hmmm, where have I seen this before?

Oh yeah.

The Goldwater rule is the informal name given to Section 7 in the American Psychiatric Association's (APA) Principles of Medical Ethics[1] that states it is unethical for psychiatrists to give a professional opinion about public figures they have not examined[further explanation needed] in person, and from whom they have not obtained consent to discuss their mental health in public statements.[2] It is named after presidential candidate Barry Goldwater.[3][4]

The issue arose in 1964 when Fact published the article "The Unconscious of a Conservative: A Special Issue on the Mind of Barry Goldwater".[3][5] The magazine polled psychiatrists about U.S. Senator Barry Goldwater and whether he was fit to be president.[6][7] The editor, Ralph Ginzburg, was sued for libel in Goldwater v. Ginzburg where Goldwater won $75,000 (approximately $592,000 today) in damages.[3]

Section 7, which appeared in the first edition of the APA's Principles of Medical Ethics in 1973 and is still in effect as of 2017,[8] says:

On occasion psychiatrists are asked for an opinion about an individual who is in the light of public attention or who has disclosed information about himself/herself through public media. In such circumstances, a psychiatrist may share with the public his or her expertise about psychiatric issues in general. However, it is unethical for a psychiatrist to offer a professional opinion unless he or she has conducted an examination and has been granted proper authorization for such a statement.[1]

The APA Ethics Code of the American Psychological Association, a different organization than the American Psychiatric Association, also supports a similar rule. In 2016, in response to the New York Times article "Should Therapists Analyze Presidential Candidates?", American Psychological Association President Susan H. McDaniel published a letter in The New York Times in which she stated:

Similar to the psychiatrists' Goldwater Rule, our code of ethics exhorts psychologists to "take precautions" that any statements they make to the media "are based on their professional knowledge, training or experience in accord with appropriate psychological literature and practice" and "do not indicate that a professional relationship has been established" with people in the public eye, including political candidates.

When providing opinions of psychological characteristics, psychologists must conduct an examination "adequate to support statements or conclusions." In other words, our ethical code states that psychologists should not offer a diagnosis in the media of a living public figure they have not examined.[9]

The truth of the Kenyanesian Usurpation will never see the light of day because BOTH parties colluded to violate the Constitution.

How about Obama wire tapping the opposition candidate?
I guess it must not be crazy..obviously it’s not a crime?

The only prediction by the left, so far, that has come true is that Bannon is a self serving prick, a raging alcoholic and way to effing full of himself and, and, and he will turn into Brutus.

This is their people magazine moment.

Bannon should just go wherever insane people go for help and never be seen again.

As for Trump’s mental health, they are desperately trying to for the 25th amendment.

Now they are bringing his father into their fantasy and his struggle with dementia years before passing.

Pretty sure dementia at the age in your 90’s is a bit expected and this crap ignores his very advanced age while preaching ageism, which is a hate crime....using their vernacular

Besides, dementia is wayyyyyy better than Alzheimer’s so, not a bad way to go.

[sageburn]

The rants by libtwits about the President’s mental fitness and their frothing-at-the-mouth to use the 25th Amendment is insane and pretty idiotic. I’m no constitutional law expert. But even with a bare-faced reading of the 25th it just isn’t going to happen. The 25th Amendment cannot be invoked unless the Vice President calls for it. Without the approval and support of the VP it simply cannot be invoked. I really don’t see Pence supporting it.

[Vendome]

Oh....amd they are trying to make him to be some crazy mofo who screams at the walls and talks to the mirrors....

Laughable.

Let me count the ways of this crazy bass tud:

Gorsuch

Filled more seats in the fed courts, with the correct thinkers, than any president.

On pace to replace the fed judiciary by more than half before the end of his first term.

Promised to change taxes in three key areas and no matter what the collective Lennie Small group thinks, that promise was and is baked into the performance of the stock market, the effect on employment and future prospects for a robust economy.

Just look at the statements of the chief economist is any investment firm ....anywhere and most of them personally detest Trump.

However, they have to preach outcomes so people will invest in their products.

So, now we have a 3% not because of Obama. That didn’t magically appear on November 11th 2016 because all of a sudden Barack’ s policy finally took hold.

No, the Wall Streeters envisioned a new competitive America because of Trump’s tax and regulatory policies.

They freakin believed him...

You are so welcome.

The wall, which is already mandated by law appears to be about an $18 billion project.

Contrary to the left ridiculing us saying “You have been duped and the taxpayer is paying for the Wall, yuh moron”.

Uhmmmm.....K

Here is how most of us heard it, without all the words:

The wall gets

immigration policy is changed which benefits the people of Mexico and their immigrants here in America.

Mexico is them forced to pay for the Wall through monetary policy.

DACA is fixed.

Everyone wins and others have butt hurt because they wanted their way in absolute terms and no negotian.

Sorry losers. You gotta horse trade to get what you want.

Even a Ferengi knows that.

Gun control...non starter but, use both hands anyway.

Climate change? Seems like winter so, yeah, the climate changed but the United States will not be disadvantaged while other countries take advantage of us over some contrived socialist initiative.

Paris accord dead and was unconstitutional anyway.

The Dems will take back both houses?

Oh k.... math is obviously NOT your friend.

That’s fine but being consciously delusional isn’t sad. It’s actually amazing for its contrivance and fantasy...

Moving on...

[Slyfox]

Just recently I heard some lame streamer make a complaint that Trump has not been forthcoming about his health, (probably meaning that he has not had a press conference announcing all the anti-psychotics medications he is on).

But then I remember back during both the Clinton and Obama regimes, neither one of them EVER let ANYONE know about their health. And Hitlary was NEVER forthcoming about her health.

[Vaduz]

All of Obama’s records are sealed any questions about Obama’s Eligibility.
Ex rubber room makes nod.
