Major breach of professional ethics, unless he examined Trump AND has permission to talk about the examination in public.

While I generally hate to cast negative epithets at media or political figures(low hangin fruit) she is the poster child for the "useful idiot."

It's generally frowned upon for members of mental health profession to do these remote diagnoses in situations like this (there are other cases when it's justified).

Still, not a stretch. Trump definitely seems to have a few loose screws. A lifetime of deference after surrounding yourself with sycophants and yesmen takes a toll on the psyche. It's why he can piss all over someone and then take sincere umbrage when he gets pissed on in return.

Your awesome of late.

And to which President of the US would this NOT apply to in the last 5 decades?

So Hillary got beat by a racist, homophobic, anti Muslim, womanizing, mentally ill rookie to politics. That's bad.

Are these the same shrinks that believe in gender fluidity?

Navy74 will clean you up with such weak sauce.

He would respond, as he should, that HE is not POTUS and HE does not have the nuke codes.

Step up your game bro

He said you can get reliable feedback from friends about a person's mental state, yet he admits he hasn't interviewed any of Trump's friends. Also admits he got most of his information from Trump's tweets. Yeah seems legit.

Obviously not doing an actual examination, so the latter doesn't apply. Also, it was more or less frowned upon after a political race, it isn't a "major breach of professional ethics".

Every psychiatrist I have talked to says that Trump is a textbook case for a clinical narcissist. Now crazy isn't illegal, but is a really bad choice for President.

He's an irresponsible and politically motivated dumbass.

"While Hillary has developed a reputation in the press for being a schemer, even a “congenital liar,” as the New York Times’ William Safire famously put it, the truth is the diametric opposite. She is frank to a fault and always has been."

It's frowned upon by all in the profession. You have no idea what you're talking about as usual. Every President or major leader can be said to be Narcisstic.

Of course they found someone to claim he's mentally ill. If he's mentally ill he is unfit to be President and must resign or be removed. It's a convenient claim for someone who doesn't want him to be President.

but that is not necessarily an undesirable trait in a leader

in fact, studies show that it can be beneficial

You went from so called quotes from analyst saying "narcissist" to in your words "crazy."

Ask all those psychiatrist what this says about you.
