(COLLEGE FIX) — The former chief of the Duke University Psychiatry Department went on CNN this weekend to claim President Trump is mentally unfit for the office, and proceeded to up the hyperbole quotient to unprecedented levels.
Appearing on “Reliable Sources,” Dr. Allen Frances said comparing Donald Trump to the mentally ill is “an insult” to the latter.
While he differs with Yale’s Bandy Lee regarding the so-called Goldwater Rule — the American Psychiatric Association’s decree that “members never publicly discuss the mental health of a public figure” — Frances’ diatribe fit in well with Lee’s crusade to convince anyone who will listen that Trump’s mental state is endangering all Americans.
