    The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 27 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President



    The New York Times bestseller! More than two dozen psychiatrists and psychologists offer their consensus view that Trump’s mental state presents a clear and present danger to our nation and individual well-being.This is not normal.Since the start of Donald Trump’s presidential run, one question has quietly but urgently permeated the observations of concerned citizens: What is wrong with him? Constrained by the American Psychiatric Association’s “Goldwater rule,” which inhibits mental health professionals from diagnosing public figures they have not personally examined, many of those qualified to answer this question have shied away from discussing the issue at all. The public has thus been left to wonder whether he is mad, bad, or both.In THE DANGEROUS CASE OF DONALD TRUMP, twenty-seven psychiatrists, psychologists, and other mental health experts argue that, in Mr. Trump’s case, their moral and civic “duty to warn” America supersedes professional neutrality. They then explore Trump’s symptoms and potentially relevant diagnoses to find a complex, if also dangerously mad, man.Philip Zimbardo and Rosemary Sword, for instance, explain Trump’s impulsivity in terms of “unbridled and extreme present hedonism.” Craig Malkin writes on pathological narcissism and politics as a lethal mix. Gail Sheehy, on a lack of trust that exceeds paranoia. Lance Dodes, on sociopathy. Robert Jay Lifton, on the “malignant normality” that can set in everyday life if psychiatrists do not speak up.His madness is catching, too. From the trauma people have experienced under the Trump administration to the cult-like characteristics of his followers, he has created unprecedented mental health consequences across our nation and beyond.It’s not all in our heads. It’s in his.“There will not be a book published this fall more urgent, important, or controversial than The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump…profound, illuminating and discomforting” —Bill Moyers

    You know what really shocks me - that he still has the capacity to shock me. I sometimes check that I'm not dreaming when I read some of his tweets (truth).

    Journalists have struggled with the matter of Trump’s lies because of the attendant evidentiary challenges: A state of mind — the intent to deceive — must be established before attaching the “L” word to a statement. As a result, some news organizations have been hesitant to fling the word around too much. “I think the minute you start branding things with a word like ‘lie,’ you push people away from you,” said former NPR news boss Michael Oreskes back in January.

    To address the matter, the Times placed on that chart only “demonstrably and substantially false statements.” That standard hews close to the one that BuzzFeed adopted for Trump-lie purposes: a statement that “contradicts clear and widely published information that we have reason to think [Trump has] seen.”

    Whatever standard is chosen, Trump looks awful. “He makes misleading statements and mild exaggerations – about economic statistics, his political opponents and many other subjects – far more often than Obama,” the Times notes under the bylines of David Leonhardt, Ian Prasad Philbrick and Stuart A. Thompson. Here, The Post’s Fact Checker puts some numbers behind the notion. One month ago, the Fact Checker team’s Glenn Kessler, Meg Kelly and Nicole Lewis counted 1,628 false or misleading claims over 298 days.


    And here's Rumple's list - all fact checked and referenced ( apparently). Are any incorrect? Genuinely interested to know...

    https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/...umps-lies.html

    The New York Times team notes that comparisons with George W. Bush and earlier presidents are difficult because fact-checkers hadn’t yet arrived at the scene. But Bush, they write, tended to stop making false statements when he was apprised of his mistakes. “Trump is different,” notes the story. “When he is caught lying, he will often try to discredit people telling the truth, be they judges, scientists, F.B.I. or C.I.A. officials, journalists or members of Congress. Trump is trying to make truth irrelevant.
