Running on empty' "Psychiatrist warns Trump is in a psychotic-like state"

[Centerleftfl]

I can't help that this new influx of emotional bedwetters are working for the DNC, they are all seem the same as if cloned.

Kinda funny don't you think? A 40 year practicing SHRINK (retired now) discusses Trump's emotional state and observable deterioration in real time. But Democrats who don't have the codes are the ones the above poster is concerned about?

DENIAL with a capital D.

[Truth Detector]

Try something, any argument REFUTING the doctor.

Sorry shit-for-brains; but one does not attempt justify strawman claims and lies; or even refute pure, unadulterated bullshit. They merely point at the idiots constructing them and laugh.

Anyone else find it interesting,

How is ignorance interesting?

the pro-Trump people are NOT denying anything the shrink says?

We have refuted all of it; can you not post without LYING?

[Truth Detector]

A Twilight Episode come to life!

Only in the pathetic, sick minds of leftist dunces who apparently have lost their grip on reality. Will you all collectively kill yourselves when Trump is re-elected? I certainly hope so.

[Truth Detector]

They can't face the reality,the man they backed,is slow but sure going batshit crazy mad before all the world to see.

Ironic in that it is you morons on the left who cannot seem to get a grasp on reality. You have NEVER been right. You have promoted lies and false narratives and have been proven wrong.

Hillary actually lost the election because she sucked. It wasn't the Russians, it wasn't cheating; it is a FACT.

Malpractice isn't funny. It isn't interesting and it certainly isn't something to be happy about.

DENIAL with a capital D.

I hope you were looking into a mirror when you typed that. You are the definition of denial and stupid.

A shrink who diagnoses patients by “long distance” should have retired a long time ago.

My brother, a Psychologist, told me that,

[Centerleftfl]

It's hilarious how the libtards grasp at ANYTHING they think will make Trump look bad.

At this juncture, DUMBASS, I'm much more worried about the COUNTRY looking bad and more importantly DOING BAD!

My brother, a Psychologist, told me that,

Does your brother suck Trump's dick too?

[anonymoose]

PS Was practicing. He apparently retired.

The only reason he could possibly get away with 'diagnosing' a pt. without ever examining him.

[Earl]

Does your brother suck Trump's dick too?

No, does yours, pende*o?

[Centerleftfl]

The only reason he could possibly get away with 'diagnosing' a pt. without ever examining him.

So YOU say. So that's why we can't take CRAZY PEOPLE'S guns away while they are just 'exhibiting' erratic behaviors and aren't 'adjudicated' yet? Well at least none of them have launch CODES!

[Cinnabar]

The metaphor is mine. The SHRINK drills down but still comes up with EMPTY. He nailed it. I've been watching Trump disintegrate. Especially this past month. (Come to think of it, about the time I 'tuned him out', literally). He opens his mouth and shit pours out. It is combative (always) but more critically it is illogical, unformed, uninformed and OFTEN contradictory from one sentence to another, or morning to afternoon. And it is a constant state now. (I've been using VAPID. I should have been using EMPTY)

... that there are many people in public life that have a grandiose sense of self. “Donald Trump goes way beyond that,"
he explained. “There is a fundamental way in which he’s empty. There’s something fundamentally different
about him from normal people. It’s a psychotic-like state. The more you press him, the more you see
how disorganized and empty he is. The more he flies into a disorganized rage. So yeah, and by the way,
in terms of being God, he also made several what you might call Freudian slips during the interview today.
He kept mixing up who he was and who the country was. He said, ‘I have the best economy.’
I, not the country. ‘I defeated the caliphate.’ It’s not just a slip of the tongue; he really doesn’t get it.
He thinks of himself as a dictator, and it’s all him and no one else really matters.”

He’s empty’: Psychiatrist warns Trump is in a ‘psychotic-like state’

Dr. Lance Dodes warned that things were going to get worse under President Donald Trump in 2017. That’s precisely what happened.

“Is that what we’re seeing this week?” MSNBC host Lawrence O’Donnell ased the psychiatrist.



“Absolutely. Donald Trump, because he has a fundamental need to be all-powerful and all loved, can’t stand challenges,” Dr. Dodes said. “And the nature of democracy is that it challenges people. We have more than one opinion. So the more — it was predictable once he got into a position where people would challenge him, there are two parties, he would become more unhinged.

Wednesday’s press availability on the White House South Lawn showed exactly that, he explained.


“As you watched him respond to people, the more they challenged him, the more he ranted,” Dr. Dodes continued. “He stopped responding to the questions, and instead, he started to talk about how people were agents of fake news. He said that they would go out of business soon. They would die…
This is the same kind of thing that he did when he was a candidate when he suggested someone protesting at his campaign rally be taken out and beaten up.”


The psychiatrist explained that Trump can’t handle when people disagree with him.

“The more he is challenged, the more un He can’t stand anything that disagrees with him, and the more you challenge him, the more unhinged he becomes, the more paranoid, and the more violent, potentially,” he said.

O’Donnell asked about the strange relationship between the president and Kim Jong Un, who the president has said he’s fallen in love with.

“He doesn’t really love anyone except himself,” Dr. Dodes explained. “That’s not a slur, that’s a psychological fact. People like him are about him. And we see this not only with the North Korean leader but with all the people he surrounded himself for most of his life who are now recognized as criminals. As long as they stay loyal to him, he loves them. As soon as they challenge him, as soon as they disagree, then they’re terrible people.”....

OK, so the unhappy kid who wanted to be team captain? And if he couldn't, then he was taking the ball and going home? Fully knowing that since nobody else had a ball that ruined the game for everybody else? That kid?

Now we see what happens after that kid grows up.

Because inside? He never did.

Hello Centerleftfl,

Still practicing--in 2 states. Both kind of 'picky' for licensing. (As is, I'm sure MSNBC)

Does anyone else notice the poster IN NO WAY refutes, denies, or even argues about the behavior TRUMP is exhibiting? Anyone else find that interesting?

PS Was practicing. He apparently retired.

It's right out of the Trump playbook.

The route to Trump city goes down Ad Hominem Lane.

There is no 'defend' in 'Deny, Deflect, Attack.'
