(3,299 posts)Too bad more people haven't viewed this interview. I think it's also significant that Dr. Lee pointed out the initial reluctance of pscyhiatrists to get involved in the issue due to fear of reprisals.
I don't think Trump is "mentally ill," but rather he has a character disorder or personality disorder or multiple such disorders. Forensically, this is distinct from mental illness. I think it takes a network of similarly disordered individuals in political, economic and social leadership positions to form a totalitarian or fascist threat to society or the world as a whole. Unfortunately, these people exist as well.
It definitely makes him and his political allies unfit for office, and a threat to representative constitutional rule of law.
