Mental Health Experts: For America To Heal, Trump Must Face Real Punishment (mavenroundtable.io)
psychologist Alan D. Blotcky and psychiatrist Seth D. Norrholm write that Americans have existed for the past four years in an abusive relationship with former President Donald Trump, and for healing to take place, he must be held to account.

Donald Trump is a proven traitor — at least in the colloquial sense, and perhaps the legal sense as well — who spent four years disavowing the Constitution, attacking our democracy and abusing the public. He must be prosecuted and punished for his misdeeds and malfeasance.

We know that victims of abuse are better able to recover their self-esteem and hopefulness when abusers are held to account and victim safety is assured. Victims often feel unheard, misunderstood and unloved because their horrific experiences are minimized or not believed altogether. Prosecution of the abuser can go a long way to validate the intrinsic worth of the victim, and to help recapture positive mental health.

So, in a very real way, prosecution of Donald Trump is necessary for individual Americans to heal from their psychological distress and trauma and to feel liberated and positive going forward.
 
Yes the mental health of most Americans has been greatly taxed by this pandemic, loss of jobs and of course the behavior of the former president. The healing has begun though with the landslide victory for Biden and people are breathing easier now that the virus issues are being handled by professionals now. That's a start.

Once the indictments from state DA's and the AG start coming in, then the process of mental health healing with continue. It tales a little time.
 
For 4 years idiot leftist men and women shrank into a corner, smashed themselves in the ***** for 24 hours a day screaming "LOOK WHAT TRUMP IS DOING TO ME!!!!! LOOOOK!!!!! LOOOOOOK AT THIS!!!!!! TTTTRRRRRRRUUUUUUUMMMMMMPPPPPPP!!!!!!"

Poor sad ****ers REALLY need some help.

What do these "mental health experts" suggest concerning the 100K mentally ill roaming the west coast in search of meth and heroin?

Better government programs to help Americans in need.

Shanghai Joe is a real professional, but not in the medical field. He's like a professional street walker. There is zero outstanding about this guy you voted for, with few accomplishments that aren't tainted by plagiarism, the incarceration of minorities or pay for play.

The professionals from the previous administration continue on the job managing and producing the vaccine, which BTW Biden hasn't changed a single thing about the distribution.

The previous administration is producing the vaccine? Put the bottle down and get the help you need.

It's difficult to tell if you are a propagandist yourself or just severely impacted by the work of propagandists striving to deceive the weak minded.

Jared Kushner produced the vaccine? I mean...anything is possible, I guess?

The only professionals from the previous administration were professional bastards, liars, thieves, morons, murderers, and traitors.
Those ****ing morons produce nothing, the vaccine was produced by private companies. Regarding ordering and distribution, they did a miserable job.
The fed ran out of vaccine and did not order properly, and the states are all short.

Oh now mental health experts are calling on people to be punished? What wacko world do these lunatics live in? Have they been screened for TDS? We know the answer to that question. They have not. What
they have is a raging case of serious TDS. They are past the point of help. Just think about this.... they are considered professionals? God help us!
 
As much as these two would like to try to help people with TDS, aren't there more important mental health issues right now?


And for those politicians still fixated on closing schools...


 
The only way America can heal is if Republicans never face accountability for their crimes.

Real punishment is not apt to result from congressional harassment, but may happen as the result of criminal prosecution. It’s time to get beyond accepting use of a “just us” system and to actually use the criminal justice system to deal with (alleged) crimes committed by government agents, police officers and other officials.
 
Nobody thinks this is about “healing.” It’s simply spite from people that cannot give up their Trump rage addiction.
 
Well, there's the opinion of two individuals on the fringe - any info on what the other 577,000 mental health experts think?

They already told us, early on in Trump's term. The petition below was signed by over 65,000 mental health professionals, from all over the country, back in 2017:


“We, the undersigned mental health professionals, believe in our professional judgment that Donald Trump manifests a serious mental illness that renders him psychologically incapable of competently discharging the duties of President of the United States. And we respectfully request he be removed from office, according to article 4 of the 25th amendment to the Constitution, which states that the president will be replaced if he is ‘unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office.’”

I posted this here back in 2017 when it came out, and Trump supporters dismissed it as "who cares what those liberal eggheads think anyway? Businessmen know everything better", the same way they were dismissing the unanimous consensus of all the scientific organizations on the planet on climate change, or all the doctors and public health specialists on the pandemic.

Now you want to know what the consensus of mental health specialists think? Like you care? LOL. What do you care? Go listen to Hannity. He'll tell you what to think.

And then the Republican jurist practices jury nullification because “law enforcement/judicial harassment.”

If you’re hardwired to not accept accountability for Republican crimes, then there’s no good faith argument for where that accountability can exist.

It's that incompetent idiot, Trump, who needs help; preferably from someone with a comfy couch and a soothing voice. Rubber room optional.
 
This is february 2011 Wisconsin protests. The protests centered on the Wisconsin State Capitol in Madison, with satellite protests also occurring at other municipalities throughout the state. Nancy Pelosy In a tweet dated February 27, 2011 welcomed these actions, which differed from the events in the US Congress only in that there were no dead people there. So why did she take such a dislike to the events of January this year? What has changed?

Not sure what what this has to do with the claim that "For America To Heal, Trump Must Face Real Punishment." That was a petition that could be signed by anyone.

Nonsense. Using ‘internal investigations’ (instead of the criminal justice system) to “handle” (treat as personnel matters?) the (alleged) criminal actions of police officers is largely responsible for sparking the rioting, looting and arson that we have seen lately.

Making the assumption that I favor “not accepting accountability” is nonsense. My point, and you are likely to agree, is that expecting (at least)17 fellow republicant Senators to ‘fire Trump for cause’ (from a position that he no longer holds, no less) is not law enforcement - it’s a personnel action as well as being a “punishment” which is extremely unlikely to happen.

Look at post 18. Do you really think that a guy like him can ever ever accept accountability for Republican crimes? His mindset is shared by the Republican party as a whole. There’s no good faith argument for where accountability exists because accountability is by definition “harassment.”
