one would think a person holding a doctorate in psychology would recognize the distinction between the professions
I never said psychiatry and psychology are the same fields. But clinical psychologists and psychiatrists both are concerned with mental illness.
I have an MS in clinical psychology and a PhD in cognitive experimental psychology. I took classes on mental illness.
So go ahead and laugh your ass off.
one would think a person holding a doctorate in psychology would recognize the distinction between the professions
consider it done
Just maybe that would be kind of obvious........
Even someone with a BS in psychology would know the difference between psychologist and psychiatrists but you confuse the two, despite your obvious attempt to backpedal.
I can answer that question for you very easily. First, let's agree that we are not talking about the kind of severe mental illness you would see in a mental hospital. A severely mentally ill, psychotic, person cannot do the simplest kind of job, and getting elected and functioning as US president is not a simple job.
Rather, we are talking about forms of mental illness where the person can function well in society. Maybe a mild version of a personality disorder like narcissism or sociopathy.
Does Trump have that? Well yes and no. We usually diagnose people with this type of mental illness if they are someone we don't like. The more we hate them, the more mentally ill they will seem to be.
So if you hate Trump, then yes he is mentally ill. If you like Trump, then no of course he is not mentally ill.
Case closed, question answered.

I don't hate Trump. But he had four months of unlimited access to the worlds foremost Covid-19 access. And in those four months, the very best plan he could come up with was injecting disinfectants. How is that kind of stupid even possible? WTF was he doing? Ask any academically minded Middle School student, and I bet they can tell you injecting household disinfectants won't work.
So what do you make of it?
That disinfectant thing was a stupid misunderstanding. He should have kept his mouth shut, he is not an MD.
He was talking about a well known alternative remedy for killing pathogens, which happens to also be used as a water purifier. Well whatever. He should shut up about medical advice.
But what miracles did you expect from a president in this situation? What miracles were performed by other world leaders? Trump did what the medical experts advised -- shut down the country. He did not stubbornly resist, even though he did not want to ruin the economy before the election. But he had to accept the medical experts' advice.
What else would you have expected? What miracles would Obama have performed?
WTF? You claim to have PhD? And you think the fact that Trump's best plan, after four months of unlimited access to the worlds foremost Covid-19 experts, injecting household disinfectants was a "stupid misunderstanding?" Obviously he should have kept his mouth shut, he demonstrated the kind of ignorance that disqualifies people from operating the dog pound, let alone POTUS.
Trump demonstrated he is operating at the intellectual level of pre-Middle School students. That is a fact, we all heard him.
Don't be so deceitful. He started out talking about putting UV light inside of people to cure Covid-19.
Then he went on to describe injecting household cleaners. After four months of unlimited access to the worlds foremost experts. Again, how does that kind of stupid even exist?
Why are you babbling nonsensically about "miracles?" WTF does that have to do with the POTUS telling people he thinks injecting household disinfectants might cure Covid-19?
Well, to start with, can you imagine Obama telling people he thinks injecting household disinfectants might cure Covid-19? :lamo
OK
Ummm... what? Trump is responsible for a Global Pandemic?
So more simply, he is not responsible for the contagion. He is responsible for the mess we are due to his failed response to a situation he was warned repeatedly about and dismally failed a drill on just months before.
I explained that it was a misunderstanding. He was not talking about household cleaners.
WTF? You claim to have PhD? And you think the fact that Trump's best plan, after four months of unlimited access to the worlds foremost Covid-19 experts, injecting household disinfectants was a "stupid misunderstanding?"
No.
trump is responsible for not following epidemic SOP in the first place, resulting in far more cases and the shutdown he now somehow blames on democrats.
Containment is the ideal situation epidemiologically. Test trace and isolate. Repeat until no new infections on that "line". If you do this, and there is zero reason we couldn't have, you don't have to shut down and you get the kind of results countries who did, did.
The cost would have been billions, not trillions. No mass shutdowns necessary. Just limited defined ones.
Of course it would have been difficult in a world of disrespectful assholes who won't wear a mask, are gonna do what ever they want, and will quite certainly run to an area where folks did if his area starts to look like the black death. (It won't, but you get the idea.
Only takes one selfish jackass to undo the sacrifice of thousands and all of the money spent getting them where they were.
So more simply, he is not responsible for the contagion. He is responsible for the mess we are due to his failed response to a situation he was warned repeatedly about and dismally failed a drill on just months before.
So he is like almost every other world leader then?
Trump agreed with the medical experts that the whole country had to be locked down. How do you manage to find fault with that?
Trump blabs and tweets whatever comes into his obnoxious mind. But his procedures for the pandemic have been as sensible as anyone's. Explain why you don't think so. Try to ignore superficial personality traits.
That is a falsehood. You sound like you watched his performance, so please quit trying to spread this disinformation, it's deplorable. After he finishes talking about putting UV light inside the body, he goes on...
"then I see the disinfectant where it knocks it out in a minute, in one minute, and is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside..."
Are you suggesting he thinks you can inject UV light?
Hence, this sort of headline around the world:
Coronavirus: Outcry after Trump suggests injecting disinfectant as treatment - BBC News
Trump did not tell people to inject themselves with disinfectants... he said that they should look into the potential of these chemicals....
It is a specific antibiotic, not just any old disinfectant. Maybe his wife is into alternative medicine and he heard about it from her. I don't know. It is considered effective by lots of people. I had read about it in the past and even tried it.
If Trump did such a terrible job with the pandemic, the US would be much worse off than the rest of the world. That is far from true. Are all those other leaders idiots also?
lol
....
Can you quote the other world leaders who have told the world their best plan for curing Covid-19 is injecting disinfectants? Can you quote almost every other world leader telling the world that Covid will miraculously disappear by April?
Of course you can't. You're either talking about something you know nothing about, or you are being very deceitful. SMH.

He was probably talking about chlorine dioxide, known as "Miracle Mineral Supplement" by its advocates. It is not the same thing as chlorine.
