Yes, thank you, Dr Lee.. Without persons of your caliber and fiber, our country and democracy would surely be in far more trouble.. Your personal and professional sacrifices are not unnoticed. THANK YOU.
and the promotion and sustenance of him by the mass media. Media reforms need to be initiated by Congress. Broadcast licenses need to be in jeopardy for broadcasting lies to the public.
@@asbeautifulasasunset I agree wholeheartedly. FOX, for one, needs to be unceremoniously stripped of the “news” portion of their name and, as far as I’m concerned, charged with treason along with anyone else who engaged in wholesale, bare-faced lying for rating$. They make me so angry.
Dr. Bandy X. Lee's great courage is equalled only by her brilliance, professionalism, and academic excellence. I wish this magnificent psychiatrist and former professor was our nation's Surgeon General.
We need you and your great work! As well as keeping Trump from the White House we need all the other corrupt Authoritarian minds and willfully wanting to destroy our democracy out of administration.
I thank you every day for your incredibly brave leadership, Dr. Lee! In all my life, I have never experienced this living in U.S. Your guidance is invaluable and so very much appreciated, as is your kindness and peaceful, lovely style.
Thank you Dr Lee. If you want to reach the general public, I emphatically suggest you and your guests refrain from your periodic use of medical terms. It causes confusion and when the rare individual tries to get a deffinition we can't find one except in a medical dictionary. The common voter NEEDS TO UNDERSTAND what you are saying to be able to SUPPORT your EFFORTS to improve our government politically and the general mental health of our nation. The periodic use of medical terms during the covid pandemic did the same. It effectively confused the common person about what a virus is and how it multiplies and spreds causing undue harm. The same is true in this instance. We the people MUST understand in practical terms. Again, Thank you very much for your bravery and professional knowledge and your very appreciated integrity !
@@pamelafeeney8086I do that, as well. In my own comments in Meidas Touch, and other similar channels, I refer to her and give her tremendous credit to the term she uses, "duty to warn", when I use her phrase.
Dr. Lee, thank you so much for your expertise and work that you do. I have seen you twice on Five Minute News on the Meidas Touch Network, and I was so grateful!!!!! Everything you said, in such an intelligent, measured way was absolutely what we should all be hearing, in school, in the street - everywhere. Thank you!!!!! 💙
Watching from Germany. Thank you Dr. Lee. of speaking out for so long. Coming from East Germany knowing about autocracy to well. He needs to be kept away not only from the White House 🙏🙏🙏
Speaking of shame....As an American I'm acutely aware of the chaos and destruction the USA will unleash upon the world if trump gets back into office, by hook or crook.
Bandy X Lee, M.D. correctly predicted the danger of a Donald Trump presidency at the beginning of 2017 including the potential for violence as a dire WARNING to America along with 27 mental health professionals in The Dangerous Case of Donald J Trump. Her new book, The Psychology of Trump Contagion is the reality of has come true. Dr. Lee continues to speak and teach the truth to the public. Unfortunately, those in dedicated Trump-only support are least likely to read alternative sources of information. I learn from historians and many authors. In order to reach the Trump cult followers I wish that people who live in or who know what it is like to live under a dictatorship through their own or what they know from their relatives, and others who could tell Americans how different their lives could be if Trump is not defeated in November 2024. They can't grasp the reality of a Trump Project 25. They need to hear from people with real life stories and real life examples of authoritarian rules, restrictions on freedoms, rights, and fears of punishment. That's who I would like to listen to and learn about. Danke for your comment from E. Germany.
Yup, so sad that people are falling for such fascist constantly lying lunatics - no matter if you call them tRump, Putin, Orban or the AfD nutsies...! 🥴
Thank you Dr. Lee, I hope the upcoming conference gets the attention it deserves! Your message is critically important and needs to reach the American public. The black-out perpetrated by the MSM is unconscionable.
Fascism is a mental pathology in politics. Thanks again for being you. Very much needed all around the world. Please bring awareness to as many people as possible among humanity.
Thank you Dr. Bandy Lee for your courage to speak up, gather other mental health experts to participate, and share your expert opinion on the dangers of a Donald Trump presidency and his unfit mental capacity to be president of the United States. We will watch and support the conference.
Thank you, Dr. Lee, for your important work. I sincerely hope you are able to achieve your conference and are able to distill your message about the danger we are facing into language that U.S. voters will understand.
Joy ? They've caused the financial crises werenin and yiu believe she will fix anything ? How blind can people be. You know she's our current vice president right now don't you ?
I love you Dr. Lee. Please continue to inform the world of your team's work and platforms. I read your first book when it first came out and understood how accurate you and your colleagues were! I have followed you ever since, whenever you appeared on UA-cam. I encouraged "Shrinking Trump" podcast to have you as a top guest. I have not seen you there so far. Thank you!
i cant speak to details but, i kind of remember they were working together in the very beginning and at some point somewhat parted ways... dr gartner was with 'duty to warn' very early, dont know if dr. lee was with them and left or wasnt ever really with them. dont know details but there might be some bit of disagreement there for some reason. really glad to see theres a book with a plan to get past this, extremely interested what that is. very disappointing how much the professionals have been silenced while we need them the most.
But they had a disagreement where Dr. Lee wants to take a more accurate professional approach, and Dr. Gardner is okay with a less professional presentation, they parted ways over the film Unfit. So we can learn from each separately.
George Conway and Denver Riggleman have both put together coalitions and PACs to make Dr. Lee's work more available to the voting public. Much has happened since "The Dangerous Case" came out. We need broad support from all citizens to keep making the message as BIG as billboards.
There are many who have spoken out. The Press/Media with the exception of very few like Rachel Maddow have totally avoided this truth about Donald J. Trump There is almost a total media black out on these concerns. There were discussions and sharing of information on X (Twitter); however, there is almost a total censorship now on X. UA-cam is probably the one arena where these issues are frequently discussed and focused on as a true danger to the U.S. We must totally help spread the word!
Dr. Lee, thank you for your expertise and your dedication to ridding us of the threat of what's his name. May I suggest that, to save time, you have someone pre-screen questioners.
Thank you, Dr. Lee, for your tireless work on behalf of your country. This has come at tremendous professional cost to you, which makes you a true hero. I hope more people will listen to you this time.
So thrilled to see you continuing your critical work for the country, and to feel that this may finally be the moment for your message to be widely recognized. You have been right since the beginning. Your courage, clarity and commitment deserves attention and appreciation.
I think George Conway has consulted with professionals in psychiatry and/or psychology. George is well read on the topic and able to articulate the case of Trumps sociopathic and narcissistic tendencies. He was actually ‘in the room’ in 2017 when he began looking into Trumps mental health problems. No he’s not a mental health specialist, but he is a well informed person that is putting his money behind advertising warning about Trump and boldly speaking out.
George Conway initially got his education on the subject from Dr. Bandy Lee, and used all the information she gave him to write his big article in the Atlantic, but refused to credit her or mention her name. All the media were told by the APA to silence mental health professionals because of the Goldwater Rule and the threat of lawsuits. This is all documented as it happened in Dr. Lee's twitter feed. So that's why we hear a lot more from Conway than actual doctors. He may be getting the message out now in a way that helps, but he is a GOP dirty trickster at heart going back to the 1990s.
Dr. Lee, thank you and your colleagues for bringing this to the forefront. I’ve followed you on The Influence Continuum and The Weekend Show. So very glad you and your colleagues will be addressing the Trump contagion disease in our society.
Retired psychologist here and I praise you highly for the wonderful work you're doing on this issue X mission point. I'm going to order your latest book and look for you on UA-cam, in print, your public presentations, etc. Excellent! Excellent! I am sure that your teachers are very proud of what their student has done!
Thank you Dr. Lee for all your help and support with our country’s dilemma. Duty to warn should come first and foremost. Most of my family is lost to trump. They first joined a Church, then trump’s cult. What’s troubling is the level of hatred they have for “woke” culture. People they don’t even know. That you likened it to joining a street gang seems to make sense. They are full of rage, I sent one single rally picture to our family group chat last weekend and they went through the roof and replied with doctored video of the opposition, followed by hateful rhetoric and just disrespectful behavior. I am sick about it. I’ve already moved across the country decades ago to have peace and quiet. Besides that, the Harris Walz rallies are so uplifting and inspiring, I don’t think we would be able to reach them at this point; it’s just painful to be around them. If politics is not brought up, we can be civil. But that’s it. And it is revealing, what they have actually chosen.
Al last. It’s so encouraging to finally see real action being taken to educate the public and our lawmakers about the reality of trump’s illness and its implications if he is allowed to continue to pursue power.
I'm thrilled with the ,la Harris Coach Walz team in that the joy they bring to American politics is THE very medicine we need, the antidote to the pathology that is DJT & Company. But that doesn't mean we can rest easy. DJT's pathology has spread beyond him and is well organized, well funded, and fanatic.
I’m so glad to hear that you are organizing another conference to warn of the dangers of the Trump contagion. I don’t think it an exaggeration to consider Donald Trump and his cronies an existential threat to American democracy. Unfortunately, the media has done much to normalize Trump and his cult over these last several years. Thank you for your courageous leadership in speaking out against the madness of the Trump pathology. Wishing you much success in bringing this important conference together- we really need it!
Marcella's mention of critical thinking skills and so on sounds great and vital. The country can easily fall into the web of another Trump or worse. Several years age, I returned to college and took a Critical Thinking class and it really changed my life. I called what I learned a B.S. detector. It should be taught in high school.
Watching and listening from across the pond 🇬🇧 I sincerely hope that you and your colleagues get the message out across the world doctor Lee..and that Vice President Harris and Tim Walz are victorious in winning this election♥️💙
Citizens need to possess a commitment to the principles of the Constitution. We need strong democratic institutions such as the media, judiciary, free and fair elections, infrastructure, jobs, education. THe media must educate the citizenry in the maintenance of their democracy. We need an ethic of reciprocity, that is to let the majority govern while the majority protects the rights of the minority. We need pluralism, term limits, and in the absence of any of these, we need a capable leader willing and able to make critical decisions at crucial times.
Dr. Lee, your work is so critically important. I share it widely. So grateful for the massive amount of work you do to educate for the preservation of democracy.
I agree - I have mentioned her in many of my political comments in the Meidas Touch, and other political channels. Dr. Lee has used the concept and phrase "duty to warn", which I have been passing around, in my comments, and have given tremendous credit to her, and her phrase.
As a lifelong mental health consumer who does my own research and learning, I have been sounding the alarm for months about an imminent mental health crisis in America, and by extension the World. I experienced my own struggles intensely the days before the changes in the Democratic ticket. Yes, there is some relief now. It's also rather ephemeral. QUESTION: What can I do to illuminate the current situation, and to encourage connection, stability, and fact based understanding? Thank You 💖
Hello Dr. Lee, I am sure that George Conway would like to be a part of this. The Meidas Touch Network has a lot of subscribers and shares your vision. I believe it is almost 3 million, and that would help to get the word out. Thank you for the work you have done and continue to do to support this country during a very dangerous and stressful time.
George Conway is not an Expert I have never heard him refer to Dr Bandy Lee once as an acknowledgment of everything she has taught him over the last few years
This is brilliant and long overdue. Another, perhaps equally important line of inquiry is the study of possible pathology in those who seek to follow, empower and be subject to, totalitarianism. Prayers.
She may be referring to "the filmmaker and activist", Robert Reich, and, if that's the same guy - he was also the Secretary of Labor under Peesident Clinton, as well as an attorney.
George Conway is supported by the mental health professionals of the podcast (also on UA-cam) 'Shrinking Trump'. Conway was a guest on that show recently.
I am not in the mental health field, but it has been an avocation. It may be helpful to review a list of symptoms, with a brief description, for Trump's pathology and to then list a few examples of each symptom. Although this might be a time consuming process, it might be not only educational but also more easily understandable by the general public as a problematic and dangerous pattern of behavior. Good luck. ❤ Media has become difficult to navigate because of algorithm censorship and regulation. Psychology and political discussions seem to be heavily regulated and a third rail of the media. It is very unfortunate as logic, content and facts aren't part of the algorithm criteria, and unfortunate as it has extensive health implications. TY
I suggest a book for non health-care professionals that might help in explain ideas that Dr. Lee has been raising awareness about. "The People Of The Lie" by M. Scott Peck, MD
I am SO glad I have come across Ms Lee. Listening to several podcasts or videos this eve. This is a very difficult road to travel for such learned people as Ms Lee. To inform a distracted public that travels a lazy road vs a harder right road that among other characteristics requires effort into critical thinking.... well... Ms Lee and her colleagues have an extremely difficult road to informing a distracted public. Not me however. I am extremely grateful for Ms Lee and her colleague's work, to inform.
Thank you Dr Lee. Why does your country not value you for your vital contribution to human rights and dignity, and for explaining how Trump's pathology is poisoning the mental health of large swathes of your citizens?
Thank you. The book The Dangerous Casr of Donald Trump was very informational. Glad to hear about your book and the work you and your colleagues are doing. Thank you!!
God bless you Dr. Lee for your unwavering defense of America. You are a TRUE patriot and fearless defender of our precious yet imperiled democracy! 🗳️💙IF U❤️🇺🇸!
@kathleenrussell5782: Seems this is a preview/plan/effort for a Washington, DC, and online, all-day conference, contingent on having a major audience, in September, at The National Press CLUB, on 14th St. NW, in DC. I'm hoping this will fully materialize and awaiting further notice. The CLUB schedules Mondays thru Fridays, with freelancer options.
Thank you Dr. Lee but these other people really add nothing . You tube is full of people giving their view point. It is much more interesting for the psychiatrists to talk. Explain what happens to narcissists when they realize they have been wrong or their ego has been bruised.
We can save our democracy! Our sanity can be saved by the BSC! Reconvene the second part of the BSC! BSC NOW!!! If we don't do this we won't make it! Thank you Dr. Lee.
I am just beginning to listen, I am looking forward to the subject matter. I would point out the pathology is rooted in economic inequality. Our politicians are supporting our economic agenda of ever greater inequality, to manufacture a few American oligarchs and maintain the plutocratic global empire. If we want to address mental health, we must recognize the effects of capitalist inequality on our personal anxiety and social relations. In my experience
How does the psychology of Cults and the communications theory of Group Think further the national and global mental health crisis ignited by Trump and his backers?
Yes, thank you, Dr Lee.. Without persons of your caliber and fiber, our country and democracy would surely be in far more trouble.. Your personal and professional sacrifices are not unnoticed. THANK YOU.
Dr. Bandy Lee is a great American!
All these politicians who gave him pass after pass need to be held accountable.
and the promotion and sustenance of him by the mass media. Media reforms need to be initiated by Congress. Broadcast licenses need to be in jeopardy for broadcasting lies to the public.
@@asbeautifulasasunset I agree wholeheartedly. FOX, for one, needs to be unceremoniously stripped of the “news” portion of their name and, as far as I’m concerned, charged with treason along with anyone else who engaged in wholesale, bare-faced lying for rating$. They make me so angry.
Let's not forget the evangelical leaders that "chose him' as the ambassador to usher in Christian Nationalism
@@gemmat.2062 To me it’s very revealing that the hyper-religious embrace him the way they do. It just goes to show what a fraud religion is.
As well as the American media, they give him a free pass every time..worse one is CNN
You are a true American Hero. Thank you for putting your life and career on the line for America.
Dr. Bandy X. Lee's great courage is equalled only by her brilliance, professionalism, and academic excellence. I wish this magnificent psychiatrist and former professor was our nation's Surgeon General.
Yes, Bandy X Lee, M.D. would be the greatest Surgeon General America could ever have.

@@judithwake2757In some aspects I'd agree but it's the people's duty to rise and really educate themselves not scientists to lower!
When Dr Lee uses a term she explains it. Perhaps you could spread the word in the language you suggest. Help her reach a new audience.
Dr Lee it is imperative you get your message out to the public. Absolutely imperative, democracy itself is in grave danger.
Share her links. I refer to her often in You Tube discussions. More independent journalists have been interviewing her.

This is brilliant and long overdue. Another, perhaps equally important line of inquiry is the study of possible pathology in those who seek to follow, empower and be subject to, totalitarianism. Prayers.
She may be referring to "the filmmaker and activist", Robert Reich, and, if that's the same guy - he was also the Secretary of Labor under Peesident Clinton, as well as an attorney.
That is definitely who she meant
Thank you Dr Bandy for all your hard work.
Your helping us lean why he is a threat to our democracy and our mental well being.
Dr Lee, as far as I am concerned you are an American Hero. Keep up the good work because if at first you don't succeed, you try and try again.
George Conway is supported by the mental health professionals of the podcast (also on UA-cam) 'Shrinking Trump'. Conway was a guest on that show recently.
I hope Kamala and Tim are listening!
❤
Your book was outstanding. I read it when you first published it and have reread this year.
Thank you all for Duty to Warn!
Acknowledging wrong doing is just a beginning of healing.
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me! Thank you Dr Lee
Thank you so much💕
Thank you
I am not in the mental health field, but it has been an avocation. It may be helpful to review a list of symptoms, with a brief description, for Trump's pathology and to then list a few examples of each symptom. Although this might be a time consuming process, it might be not only educational but also more easily understandable by the general public as a problematic and dangerous pattern of behavior.
Good luck. ❤
Media has become difficult to navigate because of algorithm censorship and regulation. Psychology and political discussions seem to be heavily regulated and a third rail of the media. It is very unfortunate as logic, content and facts aren't part of the algorithm criteria, and unfortunate as it has extensive health implications.

I suggest a book for non health-care professionals that might help in explain ideas that Dr. Lee has been raising awareness about. "The People Of The Lie" by M. Scott Peck, MD
Don’t forget to invite the Supreme Court. Thank you for all that you do.😊
Thank you
I will very much welcome that book in hard copy ink on bound paper to have and to hold, to keep and study, and have for reference.
I am SO glad I have come across Ms Lee. Listening to several podcasts or videos this eve. This is a very difficult road to travel for such learned people as Ms Lee. To inform a distracted public that travels a lazy road vs a harder right road that among other characteristics requires effort into critical thinking.... well... Ms Lee and her colleagues have an extremely difficult road to informing a distracted public.
Not me however. I am extremely grateful for Ms Lee and her colleague's work, to inform.
Towards the end, was the conversation about Robert Reich who was labor secretary under Bill Clinton? I think a clarification is needed here.
Just bought your book.
Thank you Dr Lee. Why does your country not value you for your vital contribution to human rights and dignity, and for explaining how Trump's pathology is poisoning the mental health of large swathes of your citizens?
Thank you. The book The Dangerous Casr of Donald Trump was very informational. Glad to hear about your book and the work you and your colleagues are doing. Thank you!!
Thank you for giving us answers about TRUMP CONTAGION. I'm hoping some of my lost family members and friends will be able to restore their sanity.
God bless you Dr. Lee for your unwavering defense of America. You are a TRUE patriot and fearless defender of our precious yet imperiled democracy! 🗳️💙IF U❤️🇺🇸!
Finally!
We are not nor never have been a democracy. We are a Constitutional Republic.
that is a type of democracy, the opposite of a dictatorship. Look up where that quote came from
Yes. Although binding referenda look a lot like bouts of direct democracy.
That is the country. Democracy is the form of government.
Neither have direct corelation to the names of the current two main political parties.
…… thank you Dr Lee and supporting peers for your professional input on the damage and future threat that Donald Trump posses to our Nation …
And the DOJ is still dragging their feet.
Looking forward to watching this online. Thank you.
Dr what can we expect when the Trump contagion breaks ? How will his followers recover ?
Looks like this event already happened on August 9th, but this announcement didn't land until August 11th.
@kathleenrussell5782: Seems this is a preview/plan/effort for a Washington, DC, and online, all-day conference, contingent on having a major audience, in September, at The National Press CLUB, on 14th St. NW, in DC. I'm hoping this will fully materialize and awaiting further notice. The CLUB schedules Mondays thru Fridays, with freelancer options.
Thank you Dr. Lee but these other people really add nothing . You tube is full of people giving their view point. It is much more interesting for the psychiatrists to talk. Explain what happens to narcissists when they realize they have been wrong or their ego has been bruised.
Hey Dr Lee, reach out to George Conway!
Yes! He seems to get it
Thank you!
That Great news !youhave a gentle soul and doing good for the people in the world Iwill read your book too!!❤
We can save our democracy! Our sanity can be saved by the BSC!
Reconvene the second part of the BSC! BSC NOW!!! If we don't do this we won't make it! Thank you Dr. Lee.
I am just beginning to listen, I am looking forward to the subject matter. I would point out the pathology is rooted in economic inequality. Our politicians are supporting our economic agenda of ever greater inequality, to manufacture a few American oligarchs and maintain the plutocratic global empire.
If we want to address mental health, we must recognize the effects of capitalist inequality on our personal anxiety and social relations.
In my experience
How does the psychology of Cults and the communications theory of Group Think further the national and global mental health crisis ignited by Trump and his backers?
