Glass and 9 more. The consensus view of two dozen psychiatrists and psychologists that Trump is dangerously mentally ill and that he presents a clear and present danger to the nation and our own mental health.
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. 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.

Tansey, Betty P. I wanted to listen to professionals giving their professional opinions on Trump's psychological profile but the first 4 chapters are explaining why they have to report this and even comes off as a little personal. I appreciate the position and even ressemble it a bit. But cut through the crap and give us what you think.
For heaven's sake, that's the whole reason why I listen to audiobooks, so as not to waste time. But it was too difficult for me to finish so I only made it past Chapter 4. Throw out the "Hitler" and "evil" propoganda and give me what we came to hear. Is he a sadistic, evil lunatic we should all be afraid of or is he just the smartest man to have ever understood the deception of human behavior. I was looking for real meat here, something to help me put tangible, sane, professional criteria onto what appears to be the most malformed individual ever to enter the White House.
What I got instead was a repetitive, poorly edited bag of polemics. Despite my being motivated, less than halfway through I gave up: it was clearly not worth the time. Even worse, btw, were the related YouTubes, which do a stupendous job of making these psychiatrists look like kooks. And I say that as someone who has worked productively with psychiatrists - THESE ones are kooks, like the one who positioned his webcam so that he has spider plants coming out of both ears.
Blown opportunity, as I say. And we live with the consequence. An important book for everyone to read. Who is our president, and why is anything he says believed? Happy it is over. Hard to finish. All obvious observations. Don't waste your time with this title. This book highlights the ways that our democracy may or perhaps has already been compromised.
The authors talk about the ideas that our founding fathers had in mind when they wrote the constitution and how it may be undermined now. It presents an assessment of the behaviors that may play a key role not only in damaging our democracy, but also a possible threat to our existence. It is a frightening but objective account of what the political situation has shaped to be, and the possible grave consequences of inaction in a face of what appears simulate an authoritarian system.
I have often reacted to things that our president has done or said by thinking that this is just not normal. The contributors to this book offer their professional opinion, based on the presidents own statements and actions, that Trump may not be just an unconventional president, but a sick one.
This book is both truly entertaining and scary! This important book consists of stand-alone articles written by 27 mental health professionals.
The articles necessarily differ in style and overall quality, but the majority are very informative. Almost every discussion of psychiatric symptoms is right on target, with abundant examples in each case.
If you think our president might suffer from narcissism, sociopathy, bipolar disorder, or cognitive decline, you are right- these authors make an excellent case for a combination of those dangerous conditions. The most important conclusion of every article is that we are faced with a leader who is unfit to lead, and who could easily drag the world into a nuclear war in the service of his fragile ego.
Solving the problem is more difficult than diagnosing it, but one chapter even discusses the application of the 25th amendment.
