So the US voted in a demented narcissist .

Clap clap clap

A huffington post blog! Wow, credible. Although I despise Trump, I also hate the trillion violations of the goldwater rule, which is an APA guideline that says you can't diagnose a public official with a mental condition without a personal examination. This is both a scientific stance and a obviously practical political stance, because otherwise political partisans would diagnose every politician with Narcissistic personality disorder. It's almost a prerequisite of the job. Serious medical professionals all know the Goldwater rule however, so of course that whole blog post is nonsense. The last thread here that made that claim, the 'serious medical professional' (I think they used that exact term) ran a hypnotherapy office in New Jersey.

Being against Trump doesn't mean you have to believe everything negative said about him, especially when it clearly is something that goes against scientific guidelines established by the leading psychological institute in the US.

Huffington post is a legitimate news source and the reasoning in the article was clear and factually correct.


So how about the BBC.

Sometimes now, I admit, I'm at a loss. There is so much to say and think, and even feel, about the Trump administration that I find myself curiously stuck for words.
What's the most important story here? Is the psychodrama of a president who is both fantastically confident and oddly insecure, who publicly lashes out those who offend him and rewards those who please him? Is it the hard right turn he plans for America? Is it Russia, the curious crush Donald Trump seems to have on Vladimir Putin and what that might mean for global security? Is it America's allies, floundering in the face of this unpredictability?

Four long long weeks ago, we speculated that this may become a normal presidency, hemmed in by the restrictions of US institutions and the customs of US political tradition. We were wrong, again.

He seems to be a rambling old man with a tenuous grasp on reality, Like Reagan right at the end when he thought he'd stormed a beach for real when in fact he'd played it in a movie.
