Psychologist John Gartner: Trump is a "sexual sadist" who is "actively engaging in sabotage"
Link to full story below.
SNIP -
As a mental health professional, what do you see when you watch Trump's so-called briefings about the coronavirus pandemic?
Trump is both denying responsibility by saying things such as, "I take no responsibility. We've done everything right." But at the same time, Trump is also sabotaging the efforts to stop the coronavirus pandemic. This is a very important aspect of Trump's behavior. Trump is not just deflecting blame onto the governors, he is actively interfering with the governors' ability to do their job. Trump is not just incompetent. He is actively engaging in sabotage.
If Donald Trump is primarily obsessed with omnipotent destruction, how is that fueling his behavior?
Donald Trump has to create a field of negative corrupting energy around himself. For example, he pressures the scientific experts to bend the truth to his dreamworld during his press conferences. The scientists are basically Trump's hostages. The American people are hostages as well to Donald Trump. We are being abused by him. We know that Trump is lying. We know that he's doing nothing to help us. We feel helpless to do anything to stop him. It is causing collective mental despair. In this way Donald Trump is inducing feelings of rage and outrage — and he keeps doing it. It is not that all Americans are suckers or dupes, it is that Trump is a master at such cruel and manipulative behavior. Donald Trump knows exactly what he is doing to the physical and emotional health of the American people.
I envision Donald Trump as a megalomaniacal puppet master. The American people are his little marionettes. The American people must acknowledge that relationship to cut the strings.

4. He certainly seems to relish in it.
I'm reminded of the way he treated Chris Christie after the election. He seemed gleeful in his cruelty when he humiliated him. He's done that to so many people.

2. This Is Observably True, Sir
It should be a part of social media agitation, both in comments and in graphics. It is an effective charge, and will taken instantly to heart by most people,especially when presented with material using his own words, with but the barest twist....
"Defeat of a dangerous enemy is something to be for."

5. We would be much luckier if his sadism was actually sexual
In that case Donald could hire a professional and work out his urges in a controlled manner.
The problem is that his sadism isn't sexual, it's generalized. He doesn't derive erotic satisfaction from hurting people. Hurting people is his entire reason for living. He doesn't feel alive unless he is hurting someone. He doesn't feel his actions have had an effect unless they hurt someone. If he goes too long without hurting someone, his own pain gradually increases until it becomes unbearable.
Whips and chains will not do it for Donald. All of his business dealings have been about hurting people by "besting" them in the "art of the deal." His reality TV show was about hurting his contestants by humiliating them. And now that he's tasted real power, there's no going back. He has cratered industries, ripped families apart, and now killed thousands, soon to be millions, of people. That gives him satisfaction. When he looks in the mirror he sees a man whose impact on the world is undeniable, unlike what his hateful father told him for all those years.
He is now being entirely driven by his own ego. Beware, for it has no limits, and there is no limit to what he might do next.

10. Exactly!
He 100% pure sadist and his cult are the masochists in this sick relationship. They vote against their own best interests. They are also sadists since they love to inflict suffering on the "libtards".
He will do ANYTHING to stay in power...that is the scary truth. You just know he has Plans A-Z lined up to stay in power. The deaths and economy do not affect him in any way except for how it helps him in his reelection...that is the sociopathic part of his basket full of mental disorders. 10 million could die and he would still not give a shit. He gets off on it in fact.

6. In the end, he likens Trump to an abusive husband and the American people as the abused
wife. If the wife decides she is finally going to leave him for good (vote him out in 2020), he said he has no doubt that he will cause us great harm before he leaves for good, if he leaves...
"The American people are like a woman who is leaving her abuser. She tells her abuser, "That's it! I am done with you!" She has her keys in hand and is opening the door of the house or apartment to finally leave. What happens? The democidal maniac Donald Trump will attack us, badly. Make no mistake. Donald Trump is going to find a way to attack and cause great harm to the American people if he believes that he will lose the 2020 election."

9. When Trump Cultists Kill...
I knew there was a sadism component when he goads his followers into violence. Drunk on power...
Sexually, he's more likely a masochist, as many powerful men enjoy being abused.....and Stormy Daniels did mention spanking him, if I recall.

Fascists, crooks and wackos Now!

12. Yes now
Remove them all and install safeguards so the abuse of the American people never happens again. Republicans and 5hier belief systems are inhumane .They need to be abandoned fully and removed forever.

What ludicrous BS! Where'd this "mental health professional" get his credentials? A bubblegum wrapper?

Yeah, and what kind of mental health professional says that someone is creating "a field of negative corrupting energy around himself"?
That sounds more like something that some New Age guru type/ transcendental meditation instructor with a name like "Eaglewing" would spout off in between bong hits.

Every teacher, coach, and boss I've known in 67-years is a 'psycho sadist' then. Geez, DU... Grow a spine.

Psychologist John Gartner: Trump is a "sexual sadist" who is "actively engaging in sabotage"
I'm surprised that considering all that President Trump has on his plate that he has had time to have ongoing appointments with this john gartner fellow to allow him to make this professional diagnosis of the President.
He did meet with the President, didn't he?

I always instantly believe any ‘Dr.’ who will give a diagnosis of a patient they’ve never met. True, I do. I believe they’re a quack, but I still believe them.
Oh, and Magistrate, ma’am, would you mind bringing yourself over her for some debate? Why would you need to ‘twist’ something to get people to believe it? I’d really like to hear a females take on that, ma’am.

John Gartner is a Psychologist, not a medical doctor. Psychociatrists are medical doctors. And they break ethics rules if they indulge in "diagnosing" people they have never met.
