My narcissist husband went to therapy so he could come home and tell me how sick I was. 40 years later I can't get past what he mentally did to me. Trump just keeps triggering my memories. At least I was able to identify him back in 2015 and not get sucked in!
It’s my mother that’s the narcissist in my life, I recognised Trump’s narcissism in 2015, been posting about it from the start. My mother has only damaged her 3 kids, Trump has damaged whole world.
Thank you for finally bringing up his sadism. The SEXUAL PLEASURE he experienced while watching the carnage of January 6. The new chilling words I heard out of his mouth this week, were "I own your whole body". This man needs to be confined to a safe place. His illness is well beyond where I would be put in custodial care. This has got to end.
America will have PTSD for decades and decades....nine years and counting of insult and injury. At 65 I know I'll never get over what he's done to all of us!
I thank God I was in psychotherapy when Trump first ran. I'm bipolar due to the removal of my thyroid gland. He didn't help my mental health. My medication was increased twice. I needed that support then and now.
My father fought in the battle of Normandy and was deeply, deeply affected when he saw the emaciated Jews left in a concentration camp hurriedly abandoned by the Nazi guards. As a child I found a small black book of photos he brought back from Germany of the atrocities in camp called “We Must Never Forget”. I NEVER will. I’m now 71, my dad died at 102 alarmed at Trump’s threat to our country. I’m glad he didn’t live to see Trump’s continuing influence today.
My father also served in WWII. Please consider The National Holocaust Museum to preserve your father’s small black book for posterity. They’ll want his story, too.
My Intermountain West family were always Republicans. But now it's a new era. As a boomer, I accept change. I'm voting blue all down the ballot. That's the only way to save our Democracy.
Sincerely, an intelligent and heartfelt comment. Thank you for choosing our country, regardless of party affiliation. We all need each other to do this, and all we have is our one, tiny, tattered vote that's exhausted after nine years of this man. We can't go back! ✌️💙🇺🇸🌎
My 97 year old step-father was buried in Calverton Cemetery and he received the service accorded a military person. I will never forget the disciplined, respectful, dedicated look in the young officer's eyes as he handed me the ceremoniously folded American flag. This is American devotion and dedication. We must preserve these values. Vote Blue.
If Trump is re-elected and can't serve 4 years, then Vance would be president. Vance, Project 2025 and the Heritage Foundation would be in the WH. That's frightening
idk Maybe they've always wanted to break up peaceful protests with tanks and howitzers. I agree that's terrible. 45 wants the military deployed in interior situations, which is correctly prohibited in most democracies. In Germany, there was even serious debate over whether or not the Army could be deployed to sandbank a flooded river, about 20 years ago. Some countries learn from their dark history. Others have short memories.
My mom died of dementia. In her last 4 years her cognitive abilities declined very rapidly. I can honestly see that behaviour in Trump. It is extremely worrying, because he is NOT medically fit enough to be the next President.
Donald is not morally, ethically, or mentally fit to serve as our president. He’s unfit to hold any public office. He encourages others to be violent, insulting, and mendacious.
My father, LtCol, U. S. Army veteran of WW2, is buried at Arlington. I am a Navy veteran, as was my husband, my father-in-law, and my brother. On behalf of all of us, I am outraged! And on top of all the other outrageous things he's done, this is unforgivable! Despicable, indecent, and disgusting!
Haha! When Harry finally removed his jacket, I thought it was because he was exasperated by John. But no... Instead, he donned those cool shades and joined the party! 😅
We are living in a country where the Republican nominee's henchmen gets away with assaulting a woman doing her duty and she is afraid to file a report for fear of what trump supporters will do to her. Oh, how far we have fallen!

My father was a disabled vet. When he was 16 he had surgery for bone spurs (something he suffered from his entire life). Despite his medical issues, he joined the Army at the beginning of WWII and served until the end of the war when he was admitted to a hospital chapel in Colorado Springs with a diagnosis of ankylosing spondylitis. Trump's bone spurs were a coward's excuse to dodge responsibility to his country. His first (and hopefully final) term in office of POTUS proves how irresponsible he continues to be with duty and honor to our country.
Trump's reaction to the violence on Jan 6 reminds me, so much, of Bin Laden sitting in front of a TV, watching videos of 9/11, over and over and over again. Bin Laden enjoyed witnessing the pain of those towers going down with hundreds of people still in them. Trump fervently wished for a similar outcome...to see his enemies being dragged out to face the wrath of a mob he had set upon them.
@@arlenewipfler5475yes indeed. The world's worst people are finding ways to subvert the light we all seek for happiness.😮Nothing else matters at this point in choosing a leader for that hope!

Did any of those folks at Arlington know the rules ?? Did any of the family ever hear his "suckers and losers" claim ??? Do they feel USED ???? They should !!!
I'm so disgusted of Trump continuing to disrespect anything and everything about America, and his supporters either don't care, don't hear about it or deny reality.
Trump isn't suffering at all. He loves being who he is. WE are all suffering bc of him. I've lived in triggered mode for the past 9 years. John Boehner and the Tea Party were bad enough, but this is a whole new level that was, and remains, unfathomable.
My father is buried at Arlington...he was not a career soldier, but the recipient of many medals...a true war hero. He was also a lifelong Republican. I assure you, he would not be a Trump supporter.
No WW2 vet would vote for Trump. They heard Hitler's rhetoric with their own ears and saw it destroy Europe and nearly the world. They would have no appetite to hear it and go through it again.
In a half century of voting I have never registered as a member of any party & I have never even once voted for a republican & never will. Vote BLUE up & down the ballot in November.
I think by not registering you are actually giving him a false idea of how many will be voting for him 😊 In Australia no one has to register for a certain party.
If the media was doing its job they would be highlighting how Trump was commenting “beautiful” while that rally attendee had to be subdued while trying to attack the media. I found that to be very chilling, although not surprising. Things like that should be brought to the attention of the wider public that may not be keeping a close watch on the campaign at this time. I can’t believe that anybody except a true Trump supporter would think that was appropriate behavior from a candidate for the presidency. Who would want a president who would encourage violence and find it beautiful?😤
The media has normalized his horrible and corrupt behavior from the beginning! The media jumps on every little thing the democrats say, but then turns around and explains what trump meant by his word salad!
My dad fought in WW2 in the European Theater. I was adopted by him in 1963. He never talked about what he saw but i heard the stories from my mom. I grew up understanding that you have to work hard… and oddly i was raised that only voting Republican was ok! And so i did until i was 31yr. I woke up and realized that the most like my faith was the democrat! Proudly voting 🌊🌊🌊
In 2019 it became clear that the GOP is at war against women. I will never vote republican again. We must reject the hate. Be kind. Vote like your life depends on it 💙
Her newest book is also a devastating conviction of how jacked up that family is. I ached reading about the blow by blow of how Fred basically tortured his first born to death.
49:00 just terrible.This tweet and the interview that followed it showed a cruelty and heartlessness from J.D. Vance that is beyond me. I am glad you brought this up.
My English listening is a bit weak so I'm used to fill in a lot something I didn't understand. That's why I have been incorrectly thinking his speach is mostly ok. But not anymore.
The ending was hilarious! I was almost taken in by Harry taking offence at John breaking into frivolity with "I'm a never Trump guy". Also loved Harry's thoughtful analysis of the Kamala/great neice clip. And John cogently educating us in "Untruth". Thank you both! ❤
Vance claims Trump wasn't there to film a political advertisement. That is exactly what Trump was there for, and that is exactly what Trump did. Even though he was informed that what he was doing was illegal, he still posted those films.
That violence at his rally reminds me of trump in the White House on January 6th. He kept watching the attack on the Capitol over & over. The staff said he kept rewinding the videos to watch the violence again & again. He is a damn lunatic!
I have been asking and asking, why has he, and his surrogates, not been arrested for breaking federal law? He has published the evidence for the world to see. The evidence is even more incriminating than Jan 6. If I did this, I would be behind bars, in a federal prison.
It's so encouraging to watch you both. You show us there is still sanity, intelligence, knowledge, goodness and humanity in our world. Sadist. Good for you guys to say it! Watching you helps sustain my hope good will prevail. Love your podcast.
Are they really standing up? He broke federal law. He is still free to do whatever the hell he wants. He, and his surrogates, need to be put in prison. Charged with crimes against the nation.
My Dad and many other men loved our country and Democracy so much that they lied about their age and said that they were 18 instead of 17 so they could serve in the military. When I vote for VP Kamala Harris, I will not just be voting for myself, but in memory of my Dad, Henry‼️🗳️💙🇺🇸
Yes, even those of us who are democrats and independents love John McCain. While we may disagree with him on many political issues, we respect him for being the true hero that he was, never abandoning his men, taking their beatings, trying to save each of them, damaging his own health to protect them. And we know that as a politician, he did what he thought was right for Arizona and the USA.
Your best so far, especially the interview with the film maker. Another point is; you are giving us the language we need to discuss the threat that has come upon us, and getting the right language is a big step that we all have to take if we are to be able to stand up against the wave of hatred and paranoia MAGA represents.
Well said. Language is so integral with thought. With all the "gas-lighting" and "flooding the zone with BS" and disinformation bots running wild, it is very helpful to get grounded in sane perspectives and recognition of ways to try to see through the "fog of (political) war"
My father was a seventeen year old when he enlisted in the US Army Infantry to serve under the leadership of General George Patton. He fought in the Battle of the Bulge and for the remainder of his 65 years he was haunted by memories of his WWII experiences which became my childhood bedtime stories about the horrors of Nazi Germany, the heroism amd sacrifices made by soldiers he fought with, and his hero, General George Patton. Today we would understand that Dad had PTSD. He is no longer with us, but I simply can't imagine what he would think of MAGA and trump. I come from a small family, but my Dad served in the Army (Europe WWII), his uncle and cousins served in the Air Force (WWII Pacific Theater), my husband served in the Marine Corps (Vietnam), and my son served in the Air Force (he would insist I clarify that he was not deployed to Afghanistan). Although I am an advocate for peace, I absolutely support and honor those who have joined the military and sacrificed their lives and dreams in the defense of our country.
@@theoshi2232 My dad escaped the draft because he contracted polio at age 18. His parents fled Germany and he was born in the States in 1927. He would be appalled by Trump.
Your father would be horrified by Trump. He heard the evil rhetoric and saw the damage caused by Hitler once and it damaged him. Hearing and seeing it again would destroy him.
For many years, I've heard Trump say that he never drinks (and why), so something that I saw several years ago shocked me - it was Trump playing golf at one of his golf courses, holding a can of Bud Light! He could have been temporarily holding it for someone else, but who really believes that Trump would voluntarily do anything like this for another human being?
@mariannecamous3472 He was just standing around, speaking with several people, while he was golfing at one of his golf courses. He didn't act like he thought he was being filmed. I'm not saying that I think he drinks all of the time because I'm not saying it; I do believe there is something else that he uses on a daily basis, but that has been going on for many years, according to many sources.
Mary's father Fred was a wonderful person in many ways, he was so kind, so feeling, so handsome, like many sensitive, feeling people, he had a difficult time dealing with the harshness of his reality, and the reality of the harshness of the world. I find him fascinating....
Cherish it. Trump was given a purple heart by a very old, obviously misguided, vet in 2016. Trump did absolutely nothing to deserve it, and it meant absolutely nothing to him. He probably forgot about it as soon as it was given to him. He is a monster who knows NOTHING about sacrifice.
Harry, I cry when I see that picture of Kamala and her great-niece as well. It is so beautiful and overwhelming, and thank you so much for your view of it and how it is a picture of psychological health. It's so nice to have examples of healthy mental status in front of us. Some days, it is almost like a salve after seeing so much of that hideous orange man. Watching clips of Kamala in her live bus tour moments of unguarded conversations just makes me fall in love with this wonderful woman and the complete person that she is, and I am so excited to vote for her.
So where are the federal charges? They say he broke federal law with that ad. Had nothing to do with the individual employee deciding not to file personal assault charges.....once again Dump skates. Smh
Harry is so often the voice of reason who brings us all back to the reason we are here listening. He does it in a totally nonjudgmental way that is very important to enabling refocusing on the actual topic.👏🏻👏🏻
Let John be happy and dance to "I'm a never trump guy,'" Harry. It's been a long dark time. It's ok to be happy. Love the shades and taking off the blazer. I like clinical psychologists who aren't afraid to be happy.♥♥♥♥♥
INDEED - we can all use a bit of JOY after this past decade! I've really come to luv the "Harry (the straight man) & John (the wild child)" DUO B---) I still haven't forgiven James Carville for IMMEDIATELY p*ssing on the JOY parade, declaring "that's not enough to win elections" YES, it takes more . . . As they sang in WW II (athiestically speaking:) "praise the lord and pass the ammunition"
I totally agree! I mean apart from all the work they do about Trump, being a psychologist is an incredibly draining job. Laughter, and dancing, is so good for stress!
Mary Trump has written and spoken extensively about how Trump's mother was seriously ill after his birth and he was left in the "care" of his father who had little interest and capacity to nurture him. So, no holding, comforting, mirroring, etc.
I found it interesting that Vance claims that women don't like Tim Walz, when in truth I, and every woman I've spoken to, whatever their political leanings, absolutely LOATHES J.D. Vance. On the other hand, women who've had great dads tend to say that Tim Walz reminds them of their father, while women with not-so-good fathers wish they'd had a dad like him.
I couldn't agree with you more. Vance, of course, is lying. Trump believes that women like him, too. If they do, they are as delusional as he is. Personally, I don't believe they do. No self-respecting woman could.
The loathsome Jessie Waters on Fox said the same thing. He and Vance are 100% repulsive. Unfortunately Trump reminds me of my dad, but I’m smart and got lucky - Tim Walz reminds me of my husband. 💙 I’m sure Walz triggers some serious insecurity in these MAGA guys
My narcissist husband went to therapy so he could come home and tell me how sick I was. 40 years later I can't get past what he mentally did to me. Trump just keeps triggering my memories. At least I was able to identify him back in 2015 and not get sucked in!

For it's us childless useless cat ladies! He can put that where the sun don't shine!
YOUR PROGRAM IS SO VALUABLE! Thanks to both of you! VOTING BLUE!💙💙💙
This is now my favorite stream on UA-cam. Thanks to both of you ✌️💙
My father is buried at Arlington...he was not a career soldier, but the recipient of many medals...a true war hero. He was also a lifelong Republican. I assure you, he would not be a Trump supporter.
No WW2 vet would vote for Trump. They heard Hitler's rhetoric with their own ears and saw it destroy Europe and nearly the world. They would have no appetite to hear it and go through it again.
In a half century of voting I have never registered as a member of any party & I have never even once voted for a republican & never will. Vote BLUE up & down the ballot in November.
I think by not registering you are actually giving him a false idea of how many will be voting for him 😊 In Australia no one has to register for a certain party.
Thank you
Harry, referring to Vance as repulsive is spot on.
If the media was doing its job they would be highlighting how Trump was commenting “beautiful” while that rally attendee had to be subdued while trying to attack the media. I found that to be very chilling, although not surprising. Things like that should be brought to the attention of the wider public that may not be keeping a close watch on the campaign at this time. I can’t believe that anybody except a true Trump supporter would think that was appropriate behavior from a candidate for the presidency. Who would want a president who would encourage violence and find it beautiful?😤
Thank you for sharing this info.
@@blackeyedlily Yes that was disgusting! My mouth was open watching that. 😶
Sadism is part of his psychopathy
The media has normalized his horrible and corrupt behavior from the beginning! The media jumps on every little thing the democrats say, but then turns around and explains what trump meant by his word salad!
Nazis would, that's who.
He should have been jailed years ago .
It seems to me that Shady Vance is revealing himself as a sociopath.
He must be to be able to change beliefs so easily.
I love you guys!! I'm a never Trump gal! 👍 Thanks
Harris Walz 🇺🇲💙🇺🇲
Yep! 😎
My dad fought in WW2 in the European Theater. I was adopted by him in 1963. He never talked about what he saw but i heard the stories from my mom. I grew up understanding that you have to work hard… and oddly i was raised that only voting Republican was ok! And so i did until i was 31yr. I woke up and realized that the most like my faith was the democrat! Proudly voting 🌊🌊🌊
Harry has the most charming quiet smile
A charming quiet Gentleman
I think he's single 😊
@@Fangurl-x8o Thats hard to believe
@@Fangurl-x8ocan't believe it!
In 2019 it became clear that the GOP is at war against women. I will never vote republican again. We must reject the hate. Be kind. Vote like your life depends on it 💙
I knew this back in 1990
Mary Trump’s book “Too Much and Never Enough” explains trump’s upbringing.
Trump on the Couch is also excellent, it explains how he got the way he is.
@@shawnwales696 I’ll look that up, thanks.
Her newest book is also a devastating conviction of how jacked up that family is. I ached reading about the blow by blow of how Fred basically tortured his first born to death.
Yet and still, no excuse to be that disgusting for your whole life!
Her new book launches on Tuesday. I pre ordered it.
These Shrinking pods just become better and better! I wish every voter in US would see these. Thank You doctors.
Sad thing. Many can, some don't want to. That is why we are in so much danger right now.
49:00 just terrible.This tweet and the interview that followed it showed a cruelty and heartlessness from J.D. Vance that is beyond me. I am glad you brought this up.
It is so refreshing to hear men calling men’s misogynistic behaviour, more of this is needed to move on from misogyny.
J.D. Vance is such a small example of a male; almost as small as Trump.
I feel for his wife and kids. What a tragic way to live with such a gross husband
Thank Goodness for you two kind, beautiful, clever men. We need more of you. 🥂🥂
When I watch him speaking... I feel like I'm suffering from dementia!!!! Is that normal?!!!😮
💙💙💙💙💙💙💪👍💙💙💙
I hate hearing his voice.
Me too...Im in Costa Rica 4000 km away and I feel the same!!😂 SALUDOS
There was a suicide support line as the ad before thus show. Coincidence? I think not.
My English listening is a bit weak so I'm used to fill in a lot something I didn't understand. That's why I have been incorrectly thinking his speach is mostly ok. But not anymore.
He sounds like his falseteeth are loose .
This episode was absolutely FABULOUS! Thank you, gentlemen!
I am so happy to have you both doing this important work. Thank you 😊
The ending was hilarious! I was almost taken in by Harry taking offence at John breaking into frivolity with "I'm a never Trump guy". Also loved Harry's thoughtful analysis of the Kamala/great neice clip. And John cogently educating us in "Untruth". Thank you both! ❤
Favourite shrinks, favourite podcasters, favourite show. Love John and Harry. Watching from the UK 🇬🇧
Vance claims Trump wasn't there to film a political advertisement. That is exactly what Trump was there for, and that is exactly what Trump did. Even though he was informed that what he was doing was illegal, he still posted those films.
That violence at his rally reminds me of trump in the White House on January 6th. He kept watching the attack on the Capitol over & over. The staff said he kept rewinding the videos to watch the violence again & again. He is a damn lunatic!
Agreed. Sadists glory in their power to hurt. Donald also relishes tricking people and destroying their lives.
I don’t trust a word Trump said. 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
He got in so much trouble? They ALL should be facing charges!
YES!! The more trump bullies people the more he will do it - we need to stand up and stop this type of behavior - in a responsible way
I have been asking and asking, why has he, and his surrogates, not been arrested for breaking federal law? He has published the evidence for the world to see. The evidence is even more incriminating than Jan 6. If I did this, I would be behind bars, in a federal prison.
I keep saying it: Despicable .
It's so encouraging to watch you both. You show us there is still sanity, intelligence, knowledge, goodness and humanity in our world. Sadist. Good for you guys to say it! Watching you helps sustain my hope good will prevail. Love your podcast.
I am glad to see the ANC Stands up for our Vets.
Hold trump accountable!!
Some veterans support trump.
Are they really standing up? He broke federal law. He is still free to do whatever the hell he wants. He, and his surrogates, need to be put in prison. Charged with crimes against the nation.
@@maryjaneneels5536 Not this one! 💙
There are cult members everywhere. @@maryjaneneels5536
I worked in many areas of Psychiatry as an RN for almost 40 years. I enjoy watching you gentlemen on U tube.
This show is my political religion. Thank you.
@@LazySusan999 Amen! 💙
My Dad and many other men loved our country and Democracy so much that they lied about their age and said that they were 18 instead of 17 so they could serve in the military. When I vote for VP Kamala Harris, I will not just be voting for myself, but in memory of my Dad, Henry‼️🗳️💙🇺🇸
Thank you so much for your show. It is helping me survive this pre election time.
Arizona is very supportive of John McCain. I lived there for 8 years & everyone talks reverntly about John McCain
Yes, even those of us who are democrats and independents love John McCain. While we may disagree with him on many political issues, we respect him for being the true hero that he was, never abandoning his men, taking their beatings, trying to save each of them, damaging his own health to protect them. And we know that as a politician, he did what he thought was right for Arizona and the USA.
@@caitrina19plus he saved the ACA
I just adore these rare sessions with the Doctors!!!❤❤❤
Cheers from 🇨🇦
Thank you both for your analysis, why oh why can’t your country contain and remove this dangerous man, it’s beyond comprehension
100% agree!!!!
Can it get worse? Apparently, the answer keeps being “yes” …🤨
Trump providing emotional support, now there’s an oxymoron.
You'd get more comfort from hugging a rock.
I love you Guys, you compliment each other 🩵😂🇦🇺
I love John and Harry feeling happy and dancing along❤
Another astoundingly perfect episode.
Yea Harry get your groove on its a great feeling to be a never traitortrump guy. 😂 Thanks Docs for all your insight ❤
Your best so far, especially the interview with the film maker. Another point is; you are giving us the language we need to discuss the threat that has come upon us, and getting the right language is a big step that we all have to take if we are to be able to stand up against the wave of hatred and paranoia MAGA represents.
Well said. Language is so integral with thought. With all the "gas-lighting" and "flooding the zone with BS" and disinformation bots running wild, it is very helpful to get grounded in sane perspectives and recognition of ways to try to see through the "fog of (political) war"
My father was a seventeen year old when he enlisted in the US Army Infantry to serve under the leadership of General George Patton. He fought in the Battle of the Bulge and for the remainder of his 65 years he was haunted by memories of his WWII experiences which became my childhood bedtime stories about the horrors of Nazi Germany, the heroism amd sacrifices made by soldiers he fought with, and his hero, General George Patton. Today we would understand that Dad had PTSD. He is no longer with us, but I simply can't imagine what he would think of MAGA and trump.
I come from a small family, but my Dad served in the Army (Europe WWII), his uncle and cousins served in the Air Force (WWII Pacific Theater), my husband served in the Marine Corps (Vietnam), and my son served in the Air Force (he would insist I clarify that he was not deployed to Afghanistan). Although I am an advocate for peace, I absolutely support and honor those who have joined the military and sacrificed their lives and dreams in the defense of our country.
@@theoshi2232 My dad escaped the draft because he contracted polio at age 18. His parents fled Germany and he was born in the States in 1927. He would be appalled by Trump.
Thank you for your service
Your father would be horrified by Trump. He heard the evil rhetoric and saw the damage caused by Hitler once and it damaged him. Hearing and seeing it again would destroy him.
You can tell the way he talks about his money that most of it is a figment of his imagination.
Just like his crowd sizes!
Gentlemen, Archie Bunker! My Dad didn’t think it was satire! Thanks for the trip back. And for what you’re doing. 💙
For many years, I've heard Trump say that he never drinks (and why), so something that I saw several years ago shocked me - it was Trump playing golf at one of his golf courses, holding a can of Bud Light! He could have been temporarily holding it for someone else, but who really believes that Trump would voluntarily do anything like this for another human being?
Good point! He wouldn't.
Wow. Not surprised at all, that he lies about that, too.
May have just held it for the photo-op. He'd compromise any of his so-called principles for a price...
@mariannecamous3472 He was just standing around, speaking with several people, while he was golfing at one of his golf courses. He didn't act like he thought he was being filmed. I'm not saying that I think he drinks all of the time because I'm not saying it; I do believe there is something else that he uses on a daily basis, but that has been going on for many years, according to many sources.
@mariannecamous3472 As proven by the several times he has misused the Bible.
The dancing brought me joy! Please do this at the end of every show! When Harris/Walz win, I want to see at least a 5 minute dance party of joy!
Heck, I want to DO THE DANCING‼️💃💃💃💃💃⚖️💙⚖️💙⚖️💙⚖️💙‼️🌻
What great discussion!
Mary's father Fred was a wonderful person in many ways, he was so kind, so feeling, so handsome, like many sensitive, feeling people, he had a difficult time dealing with the harshness of his reality, and the reality of the harshness of the world. I find him fascinating....
I'm Shady Vance and I do not want to do this anymore, LOL!!! I reckon that's not too far from the truth either !.
My father Gave me his Brother's Purple Heart!! ❤ USA USA 🇺🇸
THAT is an incredibly special gift to be treasured always! Beautiful! ❤️🤍💙🇺🇸
Cherish it. Trump was given a purple heart by a very old, obviously misguided, vet in 2016. Trump did absolutely nothing to deserve it, and it meant absolutely nothing to him. He probably forgot about it as soon as it was given to him. He is a monster who knows NOTHING about sacrifice.
Trump is doing the weave? And I thought that was the thing on his head. 😂
Harry, I cry when I see that picture of Kamala and her great-niece as well. It is so beautiful and overwhelming, and thank you so much for your view of it and how it is a picture of psychological health. It's so nice to have examples of healthy mental status in front of us. Some days, it is almost like a salve after seeing so much of that hideous orange man. Watching clips of Kamala in her live bus tour moments of unguarded conversations just makes me fall in love with this wonderful woman and the complete person that she is, and I am so excited to vote for her.
So where are the federal charges? They say he broke federal law with that ad. Had nothing to do with the individual employee deciding not to file personal assault charges.....once again Dump skates. Smh
Give it time , he may not.
💙💙💙💙🇺🇸Thank You! 💙
Harry is so often the voice of reason who brings us all back to the reason we are here listening. He does it in a totally nonjudgmental way that is very important to enabling refocusing on the actual topic.👏🏻👏🏻
I think the hosts complement each other with their different styles and strengths
Can you get Mary Trump on here? That would be brilliant.
Let John be happy and dance to "I'm a never trump guy,'" Harry. It's been a long dark time. It's ok to be happy. Love the shades and taking off the blazer. I like clinical psychologists who aren't afraid to be happy.♥♥♥♥♥
Uh huh! That was a cute skit! 😅
John cracks me up dancing to that! 😂😂😂
INDEED - we can all use a bit of JOY after this past decade! I've really come to luv the "Harry (the straight man) & John (the wild child)" DUO B---) I still haven't forgiven James Carville for IMMEDIATELY p*ssing on the JOY parade, declaring "that's not enough to win elections" YES, it takes more . . . As they sang in WW II (athiestically speaking:) "praise the lord and pass the ammunition"
I totally agree! I mean apart from all the work they do about Trump, being a psychologist is an incredibly draining job. Laughter, and dancing, is so good for stress!
Thank you both so much for bringing this all to light on this crazy man.
Thank you. Your show calls for popcorn.
Agreed 🍿!
Harry Segal, thank you for your calm insights
LOL at the ending! Harry and John, that was inspired. Dignity doesn't mean you can't have fun.
Trump and Vance's response to childcare points to the devaluing of what was once believed to be "woman's work". i.e. the care of children.
Mary Trump has written and spoken extensively about how Trump's mother was seriously ill after his birth and he was left in the "care" of his father who had little interest and capacity to nurture him. So, no holding, comforting, mirroring, etc.
Donald Trump, 'separated' from his mother as an infant. Whaddya know.
I found it interesting that Vance claims that women don't like Tim Walz, when in truth I, and every woman I've spoken to, whatever their political leanings, absolutely LOATHES J.D. Vance. On the other hand, women who've had great dads tend to say that Tim Walz reminds them of their father, while women with not-so-good fathers wish they'd had a dad like him.
💯
I couldn't agree with you more. Vance, of course, is lying. Trump believes that women like him, too. If they do, they are as delusional as he is. Personally, I don't believe they do. No self-respecting woman could.
The loathsome Jessie Waters on Fox said the same thing. He and Vance are 100% repulsive. Unfortunately Trump reminds me of my dad, but I’m smart and got lucky - Tim Walz reminds me of my husband. 💙 I’m sure Walz triggers some serious insecurity in these MAGA guys
