Recently, 27 qualified psychiatrists warned that Donald Trump is mentally ill, and another 60,000-plus mental health professionals also signed a petition to that effect.
At this point, it cannot be denied: Trump’s conduct as president (including his endless Twitter screeds and his voluminous use of lies to bolster his demagogic rhetoric) is dangerously destabilizing and brings shame to our country. His taunting of Kim Jong-Un over Twitter and his cavalier invocations of the power he has to annihilate hundreds of thousands of people on the Korean peninsula with the push of a “button” would by itself disqualify him for the presidency — if these were normal times.
