Episode 07: Breaking the Silence on Trump’s Mental State
Send us a text In this first installment of our six-part deep dive into Donald Trump, we explore one of the most urgent and widely debated topics: his mental state. For years, mental health experts followed the Goldwater Rule, which discouraged diagnosing political figures without personal examination. But with Trump, many professionals have broken their silence. His narcissism, compulsive lying, detachment from reality, and lack of empathy are extreme enough to pose a real threat to democracy. In this episode, we examine: Trump’s psychological profile – How his upbringing shaped his dangerous personality.Malignant narcissism and psychopathy – Why experts believe he fits the profile of history’s most dangerous leaders.His growing cognitive decline – Signs of dementia and why it makes him even more unpredictable.What this means for democracy – How an unhinged leader with unchecked power threatens national security.Understanding Trump's mental state isn't just about psychology—it’s about assessing the danger he poses to the country and the world. The Blue Choir Speaks: What Concerns Them Most? Hugh: “Trump isn’t just a bad president—he’s a psychological disaster waiting to happen.”Joe: “His cognitive decline is terrifying. He’s getting more incoherent every day, and yet people still follow him.”Penny: “We’ve seen leaders like this in history before. It never ends well.”Next Episode we continue our Trump series Episode 08: The Cult of Trump – Why MAGAs Worship Him How Trump’s personality fuels blind loyalty among his supporters.The psychology behind authoritarian followers and cult behavior.Why some people refuse to see his lies, cruelty, and corruption.This is one of the most disturbing aspects of Trumpism. You won’t want to miss it. Support the show Host: Bella Goode Bella Goode is a pseudonym — but the voice, research, and mission are all real.
