Today marks the day my website officially “broke” due to the sheer number of articles referencing Trump’s unfitness for office due to his mental instability. Prior to this I searched Google News every morning for Trump with relevant key words such as mentally ill, narcissism, Alzheimers, dementia, and names like John Gartner, Bandy Lee, Justin Franck, and Lance Dodes all mental health professionals making the news about their concerns that Trump was a danger to the country and world. I also relied on hundreds of entries from others posting on two closed Facebook pages where other following Trump’s mental health posted online articles I sometimes missed.
I usually put an excerpt from each article on, and sometimes added my own comment. Of course when I wrote a piece on Daily Kos I put links to them on too… out of over 400 posts to Kos over 40 were directly related to Trump being mentally ill. (link)
The new year began with so many relevant articles, as you can see here, I had to put a new page on every day because they were so long. (Link)
For well over a year I attempted to document everything published in English online about Trump’s being unfit to serve because of his mental condition. I also published a number of foreign language articles with excerpts translated. I endeavored to have my website be an archive of all sorts of material about Trump’s mental health, or Trumpology as I called the subject.
I wrote lots of articles on Daily Kos, many illustrated with surreal paintings thanks to Salvador Dali. Then I ran out of appropriate pictures.

I have no idea where my coverage of Trump’s now well publicized and obvious mental decline will take me in the future now that I am no longer one of a group of mental health professional voices in the wilderness shouting out a warning to then unheeding mainstream media where only two prominent people got the message early on. Kudos to them: Lawrence O’Donnell and Thom Hartmann.
