(Quoted from Dr. Bandy Lee, editor of the new book, The “More Dangerous Case of Donald Trump”. first edition).
“In The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump], I wrote a chapter titled, “Sociopathy”, to describe the many reasons Donald Trump fits the definition of a sociopath…. Now, with the evidence of more years of his criminality, his incredible and continuous lying, his absence of empathy (incapacity for concern for anyone but himself), and, currently, his willingness to sacrifice democracy and the freedom of the people for his own benefit, there are enough data to confirm that Trump exhibits the most severe traits associated with Antisocial Personality Disorder—that he is a psychopath. This is by far the most dangerous of all mental disorders, since it is the only psychological condition in which behaving in a morally reprehensible way is an essential part of its nature”. (Dr. Bandy Lee, 2026).
Definitions of Anti- Social Personality Disorder ( Psychopath and Sociopath):
Disregard for social norms: Repeatedly breaking the law or boundaries.
Deceitfulness: Chronic lying, conning others, and manipulation for personal gain.
Impulsivity: Failing to plan ahead and acting rashly without considering consequences.
Irritability and aggression: A pattern of physical fights, assault, and hostility.
Reckless disregard for safety: Putting oneself or others in danger.
Consistent irresponsibility: Repeated failure to honor financial obligations or sustain steady employment.
Lack of remorse: Indifference to or rationalization of hurting and mistreating others. HelpGuide.org
The main difference between a sociopath and a psychopath is: Psychopaths are typically calculated, emotionally detached, and highly manipulative, “born” with innate brain differences. Sociopaths are usually more impulsive, erratic, and aggressive, generally “made” through environmental factors like childhood trauma.
One of the reasons why it is possible for doctors who have not directly treated Trump to credibly diagnose him is that these disorders can be named through observable patterns of behaviors that persist and escalate. Those who are not fooled by his sociopathic charisma see countless examples that prove he is severely sociopathic and psychopathic:
● He constantly breaks the law
● He continues to lie. Examples are he continues to lie about winning the 2020 election, he lies about his frienship with Jeffrey Epstein, he lies about his financial scams, he lies about the affair and payoff to Stormy Daniels, he lied about not starting a new war. Tens and thousands of other lies are documented as proven.
● He makes impulsive threats and promises based on anger and revenge. i.e., starting a war, writing dozens of incherent posts in the middle of the night,
● He thrives on violence that is committed in his name, like the Jan. 6th insurrection. He is aroused by violent acts towards hispanic immigrants and blacks, such as ICE brutality, detention camps like Alligator Alcatraz , and police violence against blacks.
● Shows disregard for the lives of others by unnecessarily cutting funding for pandemic prevention, cancer research, food programs, planned parenthood medical care for women, healthcare programs, and disaster relief in Democratic states.
● He shows no empathy to the suffering or deaths of those he dislikes. When Bob Mueller died he said, “Good, I’m glad he’s dead” and he mocked Joe Biden’s cancer diagnosis.
Journalist should constantly call for an intervention on Trump. Calling for his impeachment or the 25th Amendment are passed due. Journalists have to deliver a direct mention Trump asking him to resign. His loyalists are abusing and enabling this elderly, failing president for their own personal and political gain. More of us will die and suffer if he is as llowed to continue in power having these serious mental conditions.
