This person is unfit to practice psychiatry. Should have his license revoked immediately before he causes harm to others.
I determined long ago, through knowing a number of practicing and academic psychologists and watching what they did to students with whom I was acquainted, that Psychology as a subject of study and as a practice is a fraud. I always thought psychiatry had something to it but have become progressively disillusioned by the practitioners of that art, too at least those who say things publicly.
As I mentioned recently, acquaintances of mine who are patients have told me they believe their shrinks got into the profession because their own mental problems intrigued them about the field. This show my circle of acquaintances, but sounds true, doesn’t it?
Last year the small parade of shrinks with picket signs telling the Cabinet to walk in and remove the President under the 25th Amendment showed them at their worst. Some take falsified Medicare case payoffs and some take advantage of women sexually. A signifcant number commit suicide. When they proclaim an alleged “diagnosis” without ever having seen and interviewed and questioned the “patient”-—it is malpractice. Their data was all from the biased leftist news media. Some data.
Note: I hate Google but here is a search with MANY such cases: psychiatrist convicted of fondling patients.

CNN is certainly unfit to be practicing “journalism”.

Section 7.3 of the code of ethics of the American Psychiatric Association (APA) cautions psychiatrists against making public statements about public figures whom they have not formally evaluated.
The APA’s concern is to safeguard the public perception of psychiatry as a scientific and credible profession. The ethic is that diagnostic terminology and theory should not be used for speculative or ad hominem attacks that promote the interests of the individual physician or for political and ideological causes.
