Trump Anxiety Disorder As Discussed In "The Dangerous Case Of Donald Trump" Edited by Dr. Bandy X. Lee, M. D.

 

I wrote about this book on this blog almost as soon as it was published in 2017.  I have consistently described it as being one of the books which every American should read who is seeking the truth about TRAITOR Trump.  I mention it regularly in conversation with others about politics and TRAITOR Trump.  I also regularly add it to any list I create of the books every American should read who is interested in fighting to save the United States and American Democracy from TRAITOR Trump and the other assorted TRAITORS and Idiots who support him and his plan to destroy the country for Russia and Vladimir Putin.  I think of this book nearly every time TRAITOR Trump commits another crime against America and American Democracy.  In this post, I simply want to discuss one article from the book entitled "Trump Anxiety Disorder" by Jennifer Contarino Panning, Psy. D.  In one succinct and terse little sentence, let me say "America, you were warned".  

Dr. Panning begins her article by saying in the second paragraph that the result of the 2016 election "...led to an unprecedented level of post-election shock, grief, and anxiety in about half of the American population..."   She moves on to discuss how TRAITOR Trump's "...bombastic, grandiose attitudes and campaign untruths created an environment of uncertainty, with Americans feeling threatened in their personal safety...his use of  psychological manipulation tools such as gaslighting, lying, and blaming are described as contributing factors to Trump anxiety disorder."   It is pertinent to say that after the 2016 election the cabinet which was assembled by TRAITOR Trump was described by the Washington Post as the "worst cabinet in history".  That 2017 article can be located still today at this link from The New Zealand Herald.  The proposed cabinet officers which TRAITOR Trump is now nominating make that first highly dangerous group of marginally qualified people look like the combined faculties of the entire Ivy League in comparison.  None of the current nominees are remotely fit to lead a one car funeral and nearly every honest political reporter and most politicians are saying so.  Matt Gaetz, the original nominee for Attorney General in this new group has already been forced to withdraw when as many as eight Republican Senators told him to his face that they would not vote to confirm him.  The headlines from nearly every major newspaper in the country today are even more negative about this proposed criminal syndicate than those in the article cited above from 2017.  So, you must ask yourself, if a reputable group of twenty-seven of the best psychiatrists in America were willing to have their opinions published in 2017 in a book with the chapter we are discussing in this post, what must they all be saying today about a group of nominees which contains two alleged sex offenders in addition to the leader of the criminal syndicate who has been accused of at least twenty-six rapes, a man who claims women are unfit to serve in combat roles in the military is nominated for the head of the Pentagon, and the former head of the World Wrestling Entertainment company is being touted for Secretary of Education.  So, if the anxiety among the population of America was worthy of Dr. Panning's chapter in 2017, just how great is that Trump Anxiety today?  

After discussing the large numbers of Americans who were suffering from Trump Anxiety in 2017, Dr. Panning actually concluded her chapter of the book by disclosing her own Trump Anxiety.  She stated that she would actually inform her patients that "...I was experiencing similar feelings, and that many of these feelings were universal to progressives post-election....we therapists were left with similar feelings of helplessness and, perhaps due to our professional training, more concern given the characterological issues we saw in Trump's behavior and personality."  Just a few days ago in a local restaurant, I jokingly asked an acquaintance if he ate lunch in that location every day.  He responded "I'm trying to enjoy it while I can because it is going to get bad really quick."  That response then morphed into a ten minute conversation between us about just how dangerous and anxiety producing we both see the electoral disaster of November 5, 2024, as having been. We are nowhere near the only Americans who suffer from Trump Anxiety Disorder around the country.  We are literally facing the potential end of American Democracy!  God Help Us All!
