This video was posted on YouTube two months ago, November 4, and to date has had more than 3.5 million views. The accompanying notes:
“We’re in a hell of a lot of trouble. Us, America, but the world is in a lot of trouble because the most powerful man in the world is both evil and demented.”
Psychologist Dr John Gartner lays out the signs and symptoms he sees of “dementia and malignant narcissism” in Donald Trump, and explains why he thinks the president won’t make it to the end of his term “compos mentis.”
Dr John Gartner is founder of Duty To Warn and former assistant professor of psychiatry at Johns Hopkins University Medical School.
(Video runs 26 minutes.)
One related issue did occur to me as I was watching this. Dr. Gartner mentions (16:00) that Trump has both “concentration camps” (in the form of ICE detention facilities, eg, “Alligator Alcatraz”) and outsourced “death camps” in “third world hellholes,” eg, the infamous prison in El Salvador called CECOT. I thought it interesting that this video appeared on November 4, and the “60 Minutes” segment on CECOT that got spiked at the last minute was to have aired on December 21. The segment did, however, run on Canadian television. Many viewers recorded it and many of those copies appeared on the internet. CBS used DMCA takedown orders to get many of them removed, but a few remain.
Appropriately, Stephen Miller also gets mentioned in the video, starting at about 26:00.
I found all this interesting because Dr. Gartner calls out and describes many behaviors that I’ve noticed in Trump but have found difficult to accurately describe.
“Look at Donald Trump today because
that’s the best Donald Trump you’re ever going to see.”

I cannot believe that in the name of the United States, he has committed this regime change in Venezuela. It was not done in my name, and I pray Congress grows the balls to stop him. I think, otherwise, we are well and truly f***ked and possibly headed toward a global war. This madness has to STOP! I could go on and on… Nan
I agree. When I posted that bunch of quotes on New Year’s Day, I was thinking politically. We have this year, including the November elections, to stop the insanity, to find and encourage candidates and support public officials and elect representatives who will stop Trump, not condone and support him.
Actually, pedometergeek, “regime change” doesn’t really fit what happened. Rather than pass power to the winner of the last election, DJT is keeping the corrupt and illegitimate Maduro political structure in place as a puppet. Forget human rights, this is all about oil money and ego. Especially ego. To a narcissist like DJT, this has to be near the ultimate high.
Quite right, Jim. Elevating Maduro’s VP to president is hardly a regime change. Of course he would never have put Machado, the opposition leader, in charge, not after she (instead of he) won last year’s Nobel Peace Prize.
