The #Psychiatrist Who Warned Us That Donald #Trump Would Unleash #Violence Was Absolutely Right
The vindication of #BandyLee.

Just read the excellent Mother Jones article on Dr Bandy Lee, a psychiatrist whose career is studying repeat violent criminal behavior and who publicly exercised her "Duty to Warn" in 2016 about the national threat posed by Trump, and was then sanctioned, censored, and then fired: Dr Lee warns, again, that while we will face an uptick in violence in holding Trump accountable, not to do so would damage our nation in the longterm.
She likens Trump's behavior to a gang leader, a man whose currency is fear - wielded for or against him, an emotionally impaired weak man unempathetic and self-focused, who gets away with it. Once a gang leader is incarcerated, his followers rethink their trust and delusion.
His campaign appearances directly corrolate to hate crime increases per capita in counties that host.
I thought DOJ might agree to a plea deal where he elocutes his guilt in exchange for no prison. I now believe he has to serve time to break the contagion of violence he sows.
I subscribed to Mother Jones as a consequence of the article.
Who is Dr. Bandy Lee and why have you never heard of her? She explains in her own words.
