Is Trump Stupid, Mad (NPD) or both.

Life liberty pursuit of happiness, secure in their person...it all points to the government can't mess with you unless you break a law. Giving power to head shrinkers would be a mistake.

Medics and Psychiatrists can already section people in most countries. I do not know what this might be called in the USA.

But it seems the wealthy spend fortunes on un-needed mental health care. Whilst the mentally sick poor get nothing.

"Life liberty pursuit of happiness, secure in their person"

That is not on the Constitution.

Bill of rights and all the amendments are part of the constitution.

It is not in the Bill of Rights either. I am starting to doubt you are any type of authority on US Constitutional Rights.

 

[Terrywoodenpic]

Those are voluntary. They don't go looking for crazies to exterminate like Hitler did, and you seem to be doing. Trump is president, get over it, learn to love it.

You have not given a mentally sick man a match to play with. You have given him command of your armies and the controls of your atomic arsenal. Why should I love that.?

You seem biased, the rich have no mental health issues but the poor are mentally ill? I think that is how Hitler saw it too.

Because rest assured, the mental health industry has about as much integrity as the mainstream media.

What was question that I asked, that that is supposed to answer.
Or have you a problem as well?

I'm trying to fix you. you seem to think the mental health quacks are infallible.

I do not recognise the term "mental health quacks" as appropriate to this thread.
No one is infallible.
Psychiatrists are both necessary and helpful.

Yeah well touche' calling the president mentally ill is not appropriate either. Only a quack would do that. Unless it was Hillary.

...if the head shrinkers were government.

It seems NPD is untreatable and is progressive

I have no doubt that immaturity is untreatable.

In his case the signs of immaturity are only a symptom. The condition is more dangerous than that.

"Yeah well touche' calling the president mentally ill is not appropriate either"

If a president is displaying signs that he or she may be mentally unstable, then not only is it appropriate it is prudent. Also calling the President a wackadoo is constitutionally protected.

Oh sure, any quack can say it, that is protected.

 

[Revoltingest]

I don't think he is crazy, but I do seriously question his intelligence.

As I've presented before, my diagnosis is that he has poor impulse control.
This explains his eventual reversal or moderation of things he says.

Now for some platitudes.....
It's going to be a wild ride.
We'll live in interesting times.
The times they have dun changed.

Mental health issues are not conditional on the wealth of the sufferer. It affects the rich and poor alike.
It is a ubiquitous as the common cold.

Psychotic episodes are usually treatable
Personality disorders rarely, if ever, are. NPD never is.

Hitler thought every genetic disorder or congenital weakness should be wiped out, and he erroneously included Mental health issues in this. I have no Idea how Trump feels about this subject, but he could be provoked in to believing anything.

Not in a free country it is not.

What you have written means we must call a president a wackadoo....

NPD......... ?
NPD has 47 different meanings.

New product development?
Nouveau Parti Democratique (Canada)?
Norwegian Petroleum Directorate?
...............
Ah ha!
Narcissist Personality Disorder?

Oh, stop worrying!
The World is full of Narcissist Politicians and Leaders.

I'm enjoying my FHFs each morning on the News.
President Trump offers great news articles everyday.
Don't you dareput an end to them.

Anyway, this thread is full of Welsh and Brit worriers!

 

[Toten]

What do people think.?

There seem to be an alarming number of reports from mental health specialist suggesting that he is suffering from all the symptoms of NPD. a condition which can only get worse, and will lead to ever-increasing, bizarre and erratic decisions and outbursts.

From recent tweets statements and speeches. this seems to be increasingly the case.
What provision does the constitution hold for dealing with such a situation.?

There will always be people out there who, regardless of whether or not they're experienced in mental health treatment, will accuse those whom they disagree with of being mentally insane to undermine their credibility. It's happened to many people before.
Given Trump's pre-campaign track record of being one of the most well-known and successful businessmen in the nation, I believe he's suffering from all the right things necessary.Being the grandson of a German migrant, turning a million dollars into several billion. No matter what you think of Trump's opinions or policies, he definitely is not a loser, nor is he insane.
He talks the exact same way average New Yorkers talk. Very plain and blunt, which is the case in most average northerners from what I've experienced, and I think that's one of many reasons he resonates with a lot of people.
