A psychiatrist says Trump could
create a police state if he returns to power
- Over the past five years, some of the world's leading
- mental health professionals have tried to warn
- the public that Donald Trump has been and remains
- a serious threat to public safety.
According to these experts :
- Trump appears to be a malicious narcissist
- a pathological liar obsessed with violence
- who can easily be manipulated by praise
and other ego-filled behaviors, indifference to the suffering of
- other human beings, anti-social and anti-human in his life.
- Values and behaviour, irresponsible and impulsive
- in general terms "complete psychopath".
These mental health experts warned that Trump's many obvious disorders
would lead to disaster and suffering for the American people
and the rest of the planet.
It was almost entirely true: Donald Trump destabilized and damaged
American society and democracy. As a response to the coronavirus outbreak
he made indifferent and ill-advised decisions that amounted to open vandalism.
These decisions may have killed hundreds of thousands of Americans
and reduced the average longevity of the United States population for several years.
He manipulated the presidential election
by cooperating with a hostile foreign power.
- He attempted a coup, which included an attack on the U.S. Capitol by his supporters.
- He was about to destroy the American economy and presided over a very corrupt dictatorship.
- He was inspired and promoted by right-wing terrorism and various forms of political violence.
- He's the leader of a political community.
- He was twice charged with various crimes against the Constitution and the country
- which is unparalleled in American history.
Instead of publicly praising and rewarding truth
telling and trying to warn America and the rest of the world, many of
these mental health experts received death threats and other forms of revenge.
At least one of those who tells the truth, psychiatrist Dr. Pandey X. Lee
editor of "The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump,"
lost her job at a prestigious university, partly because of her insistence on
warning the public about Donald Trump and the movement's
growing threat to public safety.
Many Americans, including the country's political leaders, prefer to forget
Trump's presidency. However, these acts of collective oblivion will
not protect them from the GOP's intense attacks on American democracy
which Trump leads. Forgetting about mental health professionals
has predicted Trump's nightmare and all he has created is
a key element in this national effort of amnesia.
Above all, Donald Trump :
is unable to let America or the rest of the world forget about him.
Trump's apparent mental illnesses prompt him to seek revenge against
those considered by his enemies and those believed to have harmed him.
Trump appears to be formulating half
complete plans to fire Joe Biden, even flirting with pledges
from his supporters that he will "be returned" as president later this year.
Trump supporters :
who represent more than half of the Republican electorate
- believe he is still the real president and that Biden is a rapist.
- Trump's most ardent followers are fascist Christians
- and QAnon's antisemitic conspiracy believers
- (two organizations with a lot in common).
Mental health professionals expected the same result.
They realize that Trumpism is not an incurable disease that
will disappear once Donald Trump becomes president.
Instead :
Trumpism is a mental, physical and spiritual illness that may be fatal
chronic and long-lasting to the United States.
Dr. Lance Dodds
recently spoke with a salon. Dodes is a training
analyst and honorary supervisor at the Boston Psychoanalytic Society and Institute
as well as a former clinical assistant professor of psychiatry
at Harvard Medical School. It is one of the most prominent
voices warning the American people and the rest of
the world against Donald Trump's damaging actions.
Donald Trump seems to be a psychopath, according to Dodis
and his dangerous behavior will get worse.
Trump's irrational ideas fuel the Republican Party's disconnect from reality
as seen by the big lie, conspiratorial thinking, right-wing propaganda media
and other anti-democratic views and behaviour.
Dodds also revealed his belief that Donald Trump considers himself a god
and that if he comes to power, he might try to create an authoritarian police state.
When asked
- if Trump's followers were addicted to him, he said, "I don't like using the word" addiction "because it has a certain meaning.
- I would like to describe Trump's most ardent as members of a charismatic community.
- Such sects worship unconditionally a charismatic leader who is often illusory with a great psychotic belief in his perfection
like Trump.
Followers close themselves away from accurate or logical information in
order to protect their relationship with the leader of the divine community
and avoid questioning his fictitious views, which may cause them to
be ostracized or expelled from the group ".
Dodds adds that Trump is certainly a public mental
health emergency, and "has happened many times in human history.
Followers adopt a system of populist tyrant beliefs that becomes
the new permissible reality, spreading to others overwhelmed by their need
for integration. This system of belief, however imaginative or illusory
remains an acceptable fact until it finally turns out to be wrong. those
who have been tricked into believing the lies of the tyrant find comfort
in their conviction that they know the truth
enabling them to feel superior to the doubters ".
He was
- delusional for years
- from the beginning of his presidency
- when he claimed to have had large crowds at his inauguration.
But it's important to
add that besides being illusory
Trump's behavior also reflects his extreme personality disorder
and his social disorder. After all, a person can be delusional and not be
at any risk at all. But the fact that Trump is a sociopath, a person
without conscience and unable to realize the inherent value of other
humans :
makes him an enormous danger. One can say that Trump
has the worst of the worlds, mentally abundant and completely
uninterested in the harm he causes to others. psychologically
it is the same as many notorious and cruel tyrants
we know from modern and distant history. "
