Trump’s Butler says he’s a really nice and generous guy. I wonder if you’ll include this in your list of evidence.
Kind of getting to the bottom of the barrel there are you not, his butler likes him?
Big deal.
He worked for him for over twenty years. There goes that confirmation bias.
yeah after twenty years of relying on him for employment he might have a bit of a confirmation bias.......

You can do a psychiatric evaluation remotely. You don't need to put hands on. Psychiatry is an observatory discipline. Doctors do and have diagnosed mental issues via video evaluation.
True an in person conversation with questions and feedback would be better but it's not required.
Certain conditions display an established range of behaviors that are recognized by mere observation.
The Goldwater rule is the informal name given to Section 7 in the American Psychiatric Association's (APA) Principles of Medical Ethics[1] that states it is unethical for psychiatrists to give a professional opinion about public figures they have not examined[further explanation needed] in person, and from whom they have not obtained consent to discuss their mental health in public statements.[2] It is named after presidential candidate Barry Goldwater.
Simply put, breaking the Goldwater Rule is irresponsible, potentially stigmatizing, and definitely unethical.

Got proof of that? Rumor has it he's broke. It's why he won't release his tax returns.
Oh well if Mueller has them and he decides to suggest prosecution they will become public record.
We will all see them.

Psychiatrists. Or is twelve years of schooling still not enough to impart expertise???

It is named after presidential candidate Barry Goldwater.[3][4] The issue arose in 1964 when Fact published the article "The Unconscious of a Conservative: A Special Issue on the Mind of Barry Goldwater".[3][5] The magazine polled psychiatrists about U.S. Senator Barry Goldwater and whether he was fit to be president.[6][7] The editor, Ralph Ginzburg, was sued for libel in Goldwater v. Ginzburg where Goldwater won $75,000 (approximately $592,000 today) in damages.[3]
as much as the right did not like obama, i never heard ANYONE try to use doctors to remove him from office
