Basically, the mental health experts, coincidentally, the same ones that have gotten the American public to be the most overmedicated one on Earth, decided they can perform diagnostics without even talking to the guy. Wow! I definitely wouldn't want to undergo the tender mercies of such doctors. Basically, they took some D.Tump's quotes and went on to overanalyse these at length, spewing lots of stuff on their personal worldviews all the way.Oct 04, 2017

If you are troubled by the phenomena that is Donald Trump...YOU MUST READ THIS BOOK.Mar 09, 2019
So, I don’t often write about or post about politics, but that’s going to be a tad unavoidable with this review. I mean, look at the title. So, if you’re a Trump fan this review will likely not be for you lol.Nov 10, 2017
The idea was just to see what the psychiatrists had done with the concept of viewing DJT from afar and telling us what they could see. I was skeptical, truthfully, and happen to agree with the Goldwater Rule: that mental health professionals should not make statements about the mental health of people they have not examined. But an introductory essay by Robert Jay Lifton was so smart, measured, and upfront about how their work could be considered political that I thought I’d read a little more.Oct 11, 2017
I am more than half way through this book...riveting! I take a beard, and then I stop and say..'well, I get the idea, time to switch over to another book'...but then I go back. I feel vindicated reading this, fascinated by the thoroughness, and impressed by credentials of the authors. I'm not a professional, but have studied psychology ever since I majored in that subject and fell in love with it. My daughter majored in it as well, and is a mental health worker.

Is Donald Trump crazy like a fox, or is he crazy like a crazy person? Do we let him off the hook by calling him crazy at all, thereby attributing his moral imbecility to some impersonal “illness†rather than to his malignant personality? What exactly is wrong with the man, and what does it say about American civil society—the American Self, to put it in the terms of analytical psychology—that we elected him as our president and gave him unprecedented power to wreak unilateral destruction upon Is Donald Trump crazy like a fox, or is he crazy like a crazy person? Do we let him off the hook by calling him crazy at all, thereby attributing his moral imbecility to some impersonal “illness†rather than to his malignant personality? What exactly is wrong with the man, and what does it say about American civil society—the American Self, to put it in the terms of analytical psychology—that we elected him as our president and gave him unprecedented power to wreak unilateral destruction upon the entire planet? How has Trump affected the collective American psyche, particularly among those who have been targeted by his defamatory and conspiratorial rhetoric? Is Trump’s psychosis a mirror of our own; and if so, what’s the cure? These are some of the questions addressed in this book, a collection of essays about the Trump Phenomenon written by mental health professionals.Oct 06, 2017
Everyone should read this book. It not only delves into Trump's sickness, but ours.Aug 23, 2017

I didn't expect to go through this book as quickly as I did. I expected to find some Trump bashing, but I didn't really get that from this book. This book was profound in the way in which the authors took care in not going to extremes, not trying to bring on hysterics, but very rationally approaching the topic of mental health and those in power. I consider myself versed in topics of trauma, posttraumatic stress disorder, narcissism, and dealing with the aftereffects of an abuser.

I consider myself versed in topics of trauma, posttraumatic stress disorder, narcissism, and dealing with the aftereffects of an abuser. This book expanded my knowledge on all of these topics. In fact before I even bought the book I checked to see who the listed professionals were. All of these authors were amazing, and for several of them I have read their books and taught the content of their books to victim advocates. I know that I, as well as many others, have been suffering from news fatigue. I was worried when I was reading this book that I would continue to feel that fatigue and stress, the surprising thing is that after reading this book I feel better equipped to deal with current events. I can't recommend this book enough. ...moreOct 14, 2017
Book was helpful in understanding that Trump is dangerous and that I'm not alone in my analysis of how he acts. Sometimes, I've wondered if I was the one who might be crazy or seeing things that aren't really there or that he is actually very normal and I'm misinterpreting his actions. This book helped me to understand that we as a nation feel this way, not just me.Oct 25, 2017
27 psychiatrists and mental health workers make the case for the danger posed by Donald Trump's mental health. Long, very clinical, detailed. Horrifying that nothing can be done unless the GOP grow a spine. And then we've still got the extremist Pence and the destructive agency heads that Trump put in place. Made me realize how many people are so badly impacted by the election. Very depressing but should be read by everyone.Oct 10, 2017

The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 27 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President edited by Bandy Lee is a fascinating and sobering read. It is NOT a political diatribe. It is NOT a political hit job. The danger presented by the presidency of Donald Trump is not a right or left thing, it is not a Democratic or Republican thing. Everyone concerned about democracy, civil rights, the environment, the future of America (and how American politics affect the world), and the decline of The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 27 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President edited by Bandy Lee is a fascinating and sobering read. It is NOT a political diatribe. It is NOT a political hit job. The danger presented by the presidency of Donald Trump is not a right or left thing, it is not a Democratic or Republican thing. Everyone concerned about democracy, civil rights, the environment, the future of America (and how American politics affect the world), and the decline of basic human decency should read this book. This book is also (above and beyond all that) an interesting discussion of personality disorders, their possible causes and the negative impact a person with a personality disorder has on coworkers, family, friends and others within his circle.Oct 05, 2017
Necessary reading. Be forewarned-apt to evoke nightmaresNov 07, 2017
Excellently written, and I believe it is totally accurate which means this is a very depressing book, because this traitorous/anti-American madman has not been thrown out of office yet! Everyday, he calls our free press an enemy of the people, when he is the enemy of the state! The day this man without one single redeeming human quality leaves the WH should be declared and celebrated as a National Holiday!Nov 15, 2017
A must read for America, though many of those who need to read this won't. Expert opinions on the mental health of President Trump, written by 27 psychiatrists and mental health experts who believe they have a professional obligation to speak out about issues which they believe are a danger to this country. Thank you all for speaking up. May Congress listen to your voices.Oct 12, 2017
The various professionals identified and gave medical credence to our fears regarding Trump's inability to govern, nor to overcome his personality disorders.Mar 21, 2019
I purchased this group of essays, edited by Bandy X. Lee, M.D., M. Div., in 2017. However, this month was the perfect time to read them. The issue of President Donald Trump’s psychological makeup has been making more headlines and tweets than ever. In fact, it was his 2019 talk at CPAC that finally made me crack the cover open and get going.Take your time and choose the perfect book.
