Psychiatrist Who Raised Concerns About Trump’s Mental Health Wants To ‘Contain’ Him

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.”

It sounds like she needs to be contained. Let her try to contain him and see what happens.

Since she’s never met Donald Trump, did this self-proclaimed priestess of psychiatry consult Yale’s Urim v”Tumim to come up with her bizarre claim or perhaps an Ivy League Ouija board?

We need to examine Bandy Lee’s immigration status.

If she’s a resident alien, she needs to have that revoked and be deported ASAP. If she’s a naturalized citizen, that should be reviewed.

Exactly.. I was about to post that same comparison... Leftists have gone full-on Soviet Evil Empire.. Divine intervention is keeping them from succeeding.

“I believe the license for this Psychiatrist to practice....needs to be evaluated. I’m also worried about the mental health of the psychiatrist...he might need an evaluation.”

This is the only takeaway point from the article.

There was once a president who pretended to be a “committed Christian” but who was really an atheist having a love affair with m*slims. He continually put down Christianity while raising *slam to the status of a privileged religion.

He took up a side job as imam, making preachments such as “The future does not belong to those who slander the prophet of *slam”. He took 30 billion of our money and give it to a m*slim regime that the very next day chanted “death to America.”

He arranged a deal with that regime that gave every advantage to the regime, and nothing at all to the USA. He sealed a deal with the murderous castro regime, that gave all benefits to them, and none to the USA.

He put down the police and accused them or racism. He allied himself with blm and the m*slim brotherhood, two violent organizations that practice hatred.

Now, who’s mental health needs to be evaluated?

In the old USSR psychiatrists were part and parsel of the 'goon squards' that sent men like Solzhenitsyn to Gulags... Speaking of Solzhenitsyn here's something Brndy Lee should reflect on:

“Education doesn't make you smarter.” ― Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

“The insurrection would be in your direction, bwitch.”

True enough, she’d experience the cutting edge of the Second Amendment very quickly, and it wouldn’t require either the SS or the cops.

I guess those who can’t do teach and those who can’t teach teach psychiatry.

boosted by prominent mainstream media outlets like CNN and MSNBC.

These are past their time or, in one case, never came into its time. Start calling them fringe media outlets.

Brandy Lee sounds like a kook.

This is serious mass sickness that has become blood sport. Every Trump-hater wants to be THE ONE to take him down, believing he/she will be recorded in history as a hero. One by one, they stick shivs in the President, hoping their shiv will be the death blow.

May God bless and protect President Trump, and all rational Americans, from this evil.

Like the Multnomah (Portland county bar association, Judge Monica Herranz, illegals)) the American Psychiatric Association doesn’t have any disciplinary rules for its members?

Who believes such a nut-job shrink? If you are sending your child to any class that she teaches, you will deserve the results.
