I'm not a fan of Trump but I don't think a doctor should share medical opinions like this without actually meeting with him. And if he did, it would be confidential. I think this is borderline unethical.

This is actually frightening....any of us could be diagnosed and have our lives ruined by anyone who dislikes us that has access to psychiatrist

Any pathological social or ruling system in which psychiatry is used for political reasons presents additional problems. Any person rebelling against a governmental system, which strikes him as foreign and immoral, can easily be designated by the representatives of said government as "mentally abnormal", someone who has a "personality disorder" and who should submit to psychiatric treatment and there are plenty of ways for them to gain control of the testing system. A scientifically and morally degenerate psychiatrist can be found for this. Laura Knight-Jadczyk

From what I've read about our recent history our medical system has been used over and over to disenfranchise people who speak the truth, who don't fit in, who are a burden to the system. Psychology is about control not about mental health.
