Mental health professionals feel they have an ethical/social responsibility to comment on what they are witnessing with Trump, and that given the potentially disastrous consequences of staying silent, behavioral observation is sufficient for said commentary.
Further, my understanding is that the DSM-5 is generally geared more toward diagnoses based on observed behavior over inferred psychodynamics: another impetus for updating the Goldwater rule.
Exactly, if she'd been listened too... might have all been different!

Let's face it, you don't really have to be an expert to see how Trump's behaviour has changed over the years. Old interviews of him show him expressing his opinions far more effectively than he does now. So either his mental capacity has reduced for whatever reason or he's faking it now because he thinks using words with as few syllables as possible means he's connecting with his supporters i.e he thinks they're all dumb.
Exactly!

Oh Methneo, Jan 6!

Oh, I see. It is more clear, now: she's got an agenda. An Anti-Trump agenda, to be exact.I thought you had something legit. It's just more hysteria. She should get checked for delusional reality disorder and perhaps get her credentials called into question for using her position and credentials in a partisan political power struggle.
It's a dangerous game she is playing. And not a good one.
Just think if we'd listened to her, no insurrection

Well she wasn't wrong.
A Harvard law professor suggested that former President Donald Trump's legal team should get him to plead insanity if he goes on trial.
In a tweet on Sunday, the professor, Laurence Tribe, an expert on constitutional law, commented on Trump's video message to the House select committee on January 6, 2021.
"If this is the 'defense' at Trump's forthcoming trial, I don't envy the lawyers who agree to represent him," Tribe tweeted.
"They'd better be psychiatrists expert at reflexive projection and capable of getting their client to plead insanity," Tribe added.
