Recording of Live Session with Dr. Lee
Series on Fridays at 12 noon EDT/9 a.m. PDT
Below is the recording of the session on August 31, 2024, of the topic:
“Recovering from Trump Contagion -
Restoring our Collective Mental Health”
*These videos are now public and shareable. Please also share our fundraising campaign for an all-day, major National Press Club conference, linked here.
Dr. Lee is a forensic and social psychiatrist and an expert on violence who became known to the public in 2017 with her book, The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 27 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President. Since then, she has endeavored to warn the American public of the societal dangers that would result from someone like Donald Trump being given the powers of the U.S. presidency. Since being unable to adapt to the change of his opponent, Donald Trump has been deteriorating rapidly. The country was little prepared for a mentally unstable president, and even less so for a disintegrating one with millions of followers, to whom he has spread his symptoms. Few are seriously dealing with these dangers, which is why we are organizing a fundraising campaign for a major, all-day conference at the National Press Club. Please join us to discuss the dangers and a path to healing, including from: The Psychology of Trump Contagion: An Existential Threat to American Democracy and All Humankind, Dr. Lee’s latest book, available through paid subscription or by ebook.
Dr. Lee, in this last Live Session you were saying that President Biden should have and could have done more as President to stop or punish Trump before he was allowed to get away with all his crimes and allowed to run for President this coming election. What could President Biden have done or do to stop trump? The GOP led House, the Supreme Court Heritage Foundation Judges and the GOP Senate stopped any legal way to hold trump accountable or punish him for his crimes (i.e. Jan 6th Insurrection, Pressuring Election Officials especially in Georgia where there is a taped recording of his actions to overturn 11,000 votes for Biden, etc.). I don't know what President Biden could have done to stop trump.
Greetings, Dr. Lee Bandy and I am delighted to hear and see this video of you. I am American, my mother's father was born in Shanghai, his father American and his mother Hoo Tsai Shoon, who in her youth was a servant girl in the imperial Chinese forbidden city, so by genetics I am 15% Chinese and over a few years here in America other Chinese taught me to hold a bowl of rice with my fingertips, not on the palm of the hand such as a beggar would, and I learned how to properly eat with sticks.
I generally agree with your views and positions and believe we could easily communicate.
