Summary

On this Daily Coronacast, Sami is joined by forensic psychologist Dr. Bandy X Lee of the World Mental Health Coalition and Yale University to talk about Donald Trump’s mental state. They start things off talking about why conversations about the president’s mental health are missing from mainstream media. Next, they discuss the president’s behavior and why it’s so hard to officially diagnose someone without direct contact, despite the overwhelming public information. Plus, they talk about mishandling of the current crisis, how it resembles a genocide, and the way Trump’s behavior has an anti-human malice. Finally, they discuss the concept of malignant narcissism, how granting power to a person like Trump can result in such harm, and what we can do to prevent any further damage going forward.
