46: Duty To Warn with John Gartner | Jen Rubin’s Green Room

Thank you Jen and Dr J Gartnerfrom Canada .

It will be interesting to see if Donnie actually follows through with doing the debates with President Biden now with this new information. Especially with the mics being cut off after a certain time, and it is for bopth debaters. There will be no audience for Donnie as well.

(34:05) RE: Mainstream media coverage. I have been scavenging the Tubes to find reporting on the former president's obvious decline and the danger he poses to holding office. John Gartner is one of the few that leans into this. (Dr. Lee is very circumspect in her forensic evaluation.) Gartner gives us the background on the Goldwater rule and how the medical profession has been cowed. It is disheartening to realize that the economics of the fourth column is not really to speak truth to power, it is to navigate power to eek out bread crumbs. Totally support John Gartner speaking out!

Wonderful! Very informative! We should have more psychotherapists coming out to enlighten the public about Trump's condition!

I looked for my glasses for 10 minutes one day and they were on top of my head the whole time.
I was in a meeting with Trump in the 90's and he was a bullshitter but he was a very fluent speaker. He knew facts and details of the project. So even in 2015 I noticed he was not as sharp in language as he was in mid 90's and now he's much worse than he was in 2015.

LET'S CLEAN OUT THE TRATIORS
If you think about it, scotus trails by 4 or more years behind the commonly held belief systems because, at minimum, they were installed years prior by an outgoing president.
Based on this, why would we be surprised when their decisions go against current norms?
When you add to this the fact that justices lives on the court goes into generations, is it any wonder that their rulings go contrary to current customary norms?
Something needs to change here. We're set to clean out the traitors of the house and senate in the 2024 elections. Shouldn't we carry our momentum to the Supreme Court also?

I started noticing it back in 2018. He was becoming even more repetitive and starting to fail at word like "oranges" instead of "origins". But what really made me notice was, that he was becoming much more dependent on the teleprompter, even his smears and insults were written into the teleprompter, its very easy to tell , when hes reading off it, coz hes turned to the side, hes reading from and staring intently at the prompter and becomes more monotone. But that was getting worse too, he was often clutching the podium and became like a marionette, completely stiff as he stared at the prompter, then like a marionette with a string off the top of his head turn his entire body stiffly towards the prompter on the other side without turning his head or anything else.
Back then in 2018, I went back and found some clips from 2016 campaign event. There was a clear difference. Finding older clips, I could tell a huge difference from the 80s and 90s even to 2016. 2018 to 2020 he become steadily worse. It seemed to accelerate after the 2020 election, like the inability to admit he lost gave him a further push over the edge. And in the last year with indictments and court cases hes been very clearly spiralling, theres enormous decline in just that year.
Now Im not a mental health professional, Im an accountant, but I have known ppl with dementia. I would say, that its blindingly obvious to any of us, who have experienced family or friends being inflicted with dementia.
Its truly scary, that every1 seem to just want to ignore it.

The "journalists" are not reporting the facts of Trump's so-called "speeches."

He has dementia but it's strong dementia!

The deceit of the political right. The context free delusion of conservatism. The addled magical thinking of twits. A pyrmid scheme of stupid ignorant petulant know nothing rubes. Swill soaked junkies clawing at the fantasies manufactured by reprobates. Sociopathy marketed as political ideology. A nation of fools cheering mealy mouthed adolescent jack offs and juvenile delinquents. A subjective reality TV gameshow infomercial for servile cowards.

Great discussion.

Does anyone think the right wing is not aware of tfg’s dementia, endless lies, and narcissism?

From at least the time of Nixon to today, that is what resonates with and drives the right wing.

The question seems to be: How does one reach anyone who only responds to self-serving lies?

Thanks for all your information and enlightenment.

This was fantastic! Please have him back, Jen, and use all your influence get MSNBC to have him on. Thanks so much for all you do!

Good show, Jen!
