A trio of psychiatrists has sent a letter to President Barack Obama advising him to command President-elect Donald Trump to submit to “a full medical and neuropsychiatric evaluation.” The psychiatrists want Obama to make Trump get his head examined because they believe Trump “cannot distinguish between fantasy and reality.”

They don’t really want him to take one, they just want the media to report that they asked him to take one. This is the sort of petty propaganda BS Trump will be dealing with for the next 4 years.

You got it. Another "false news" story.

I wonder how many “mental health professionals” can pass a common sense layperson exam for mental wellbeing?

This is not from the APA, it is from THREE FEMALE psychiatrists. A responsible, ethical psychiatrist would never make such a reckless suggestion based on an election. All three need to have their licenses (if they actually have one) suspended.

They go into the profession hoping to cure themselves.
You bet they’re projecting.

So what would happen if Obama demanded that Trump submit to psychiatric evaluation and Trump told him “Right after you sociopath.”

I am a psychologist who follows the APA code of ethics. We are not allowed to make assertions about someone’s mental health unless we have appropriately examined and tested them. Then, we cannot make that information public due to protected health information laws

These people are poorly trained and at risk for losing their licenses, if they have them. I suspect they are academic yahoos.

Liberalism is the mental state which cannot distinguish between reality and fantasy.

Psychology used to be a respectable near science but since 1973 it has sunk to the level of Voodoo spell casters.

Oh my gosh.....the APA actually are a bunch of effing idiots.


My dad was a post WWII (GI Bill) psychologist. He told me during the 70s what the field was becoming and the fascistic tactics the fringe groups used to enforce groupthink. He advised me not to go into the field, and that was good advice.

The irony has me laughing out loud. What a great morning!

The psychiatry field has the largest number of doctors with mental health problems and suicides.

Yet more lunatic LIBs coming out of the woodwork. These freaks should be fired and shunned in society. What losers. Everyone knows that those who become psychiatrists do so because they couldn’t handle becoming a real doctor. Also, psychiatrists are ranked at the bottom of the doctor “status” scale. Losers.

These same individuals cannot distinguish between normal male and female biology, and they want all of U.S. law to reflect their same intellectual defect. Yet they believe themselves qualified to judge the PEOTUS.

People having trouble distinguishing between fantasy and reality, with the full backing of academia, the liberal courts and the media:
