Psychiatrist Who Raised Concerns About Trump’s Mental Health Wants To ‘Contain’ Him
dailycaller.com ^ | 1/6/18 | Justin Caruso

Yale psychiatry professor Bandy Lee has been raising concerns about President Trump’s mental health for over a year and suggested in a new interview that Trump should be physically contained for an “urgent evaluation” to determine his mental state.

In a Vox interview published Saturday, reporter Eliza Barclay asks Lee, “Okay, so you’re calling for an evaluation; you’re serious about that. How could he possibly be evaluated, since it seems like he wouldn’t voluntarily do it?”

Lee responded, “We encounter this often in mental health. Those who most require an evaluation are the least likely to submit to one. That is the reason why in all 50 states we have not only the legal authority, but often the legal obligation, to contain someone even against their will when it’s an emergency. So in an emergency, neither consent nor confidentiality requirements hold. Safety comes first. What we do in the case of danger is we contain the person, we remove them from access to weapons, and we do an urgent evaluation.”

Time for a visit from the Secret Service. Threatening the President. If it was Obama, this guy would already be in jail.

The fever swamp that is the dems and their media lapdogs, is the leading cause of global warming.

Yup. Show me a psychiatrist and I’ll show you someone with more issues than every newsstand in Times Square, Grand Central, JFK, O Hare, LAX and Heathrow combined.

Why does this “doctor” (who publicly defames people under the color of Medicine without so much as a single interview) have license?

Maybe she studied at the Kim Jon Il University of Dotard studies for a degree. She certainly comes up with almost as wild and 'crazy' claims and actions as the nork butterball does.

She needs to be visited by a few Federal Marshalls so they can contain her stoopid self.

This type is EXACTLY the type Thomas Szasz warned about, using the pseudo-science of psychiatry to coerce/incarcerate people “for their own good or the good of others”.

I wonder how many could write the licensing board about unprofessional conduct and/or what is it--violation of the Goldwater principle?

Another case of a Super Mouth eating her own brain.

I think you were right the first time.

She's a preson--a pre-person mouthing off before her mouse-brain was connected to anything.

For sure. Another liberal hidiot vainly trying to scratch out their 15 min of fame as a leader in the stupid olympics.

What about Geddy Lee?
What does he have to say about Trump?
Isn’t it now his turn to stamp his feet on camera about our President?

Qx noticed she’s oriental ... and wondered if she’s terminally resentful that she can’t be The Empress Dowager so she’s over-compensating by pretending. We shouldn’t be surprised if she starts spewing “OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!” at maximum volume the next time media folks are within range to report her priceless spewing bouts.

If they try to remove Trump then it’s time to declare war on these lunatics.

Bears repeating:

But they had no concern about the soundness of Obama’s sick, twisted, anti-American, communist, homo, moslem, hate-whitey mind. He caused the rise of BLM which got lots of police and citizens killed. He permitted Hezbollah to sell illegal drugs in the US to save his Iranian deal which provided them with cash to sponsor global terrorism and build nuclear weapons.

Obama was one very mentally disturbed puppy. Not one person I recall raised concerns about his fitness for office.

Have you ever met a psychiatrist who, himself, did not need to be contained for an evaluation?

Without exception all of the students I met were studying the field to learn more about themselves, and thus solve their own problems.

Who is paying this fellow to make unsupported assertions about our President? It looks like he is just trying to get on the Democrat bandwagon.
