This part is satire… scroll down for the serious part...
When I read this on RawStory all I thought I’d use their screen grab of him make the photoshop above.
I wanted to go to his new Twitter page and tweet the photo I made on his account but it was already suspended:
Todays diary is along the same lines as what I wrote to go with photoshop expressing a similar idea which I made about another spotlight hogging unhinged Trumper yesterday: My reaction to Adam Kinzinger's Marjorie Taylor Greene "it's insane" comment.
I sometimes come up with an idea for a snarky photoshop and work on making it and then decide to write a diary to go with it. I use InPixio and BeFunky to construct my illustrations.
Seriously, it is doubtful that many, if any, of the public figures from Donald Trump on down through his cadre of delusion spouting minions would actually meet the requirements (below) for civil involuntary commitment to an inpatient psychiatric facility for evaluation:
Although varying subtly by jurisdiction, civil commitment protocols share common foundational criteria. Of salient recognition is the existence of “mental illness.” Once a mental illness has been identified, the clinician must then assess for the presence of concurrent criteria, including dangerousness to self and/or to others, grave disability (inability to provide for rudimentary needs), need for treatment, and incapacity. In addition to one or more of the aforementioned criteria, the manifestation of mental illness justly warrants a civil commitment. However, the process does not simply terminate with absolute power resting in the hands of the physician. Once committed, the appropriate judiciary entities review the case to ensure justice. Furthermore, the patient is not naked under the law without his means of protection. Timely court hearings, representation by an esquire, guaranteed right to appeal, and the ability to be present at all civil commitment hearings help prevent malfeasance. Ultimately, the decision to uphold the commitment rests with the local magistrate.[5]
Although sworn to uphold the ethical obligations once laid forth by the indelible Hippocrates, the principle of parens patriae engenders obligatory action by the psychiatrist if the patient is unable to act in his own best interest. Moral conflict arises when respect for patient autonomy and non-maleficence are juxtaposed with the clinician’s obligation to pursue the duty of beneficence via “benign medical paternalism.” If a patient has lost the capacity for informed decision-making in the setting of mental illness, the patient is no longer truly autonomous. The psychiatrist is then ethically mandated to prioritize the duty of beneficence over that of the patient’s autonomy and thus civilly commit the patient.[1] Because of these ethical and moral considerations, one can understand why the history of civil commitment is such a polarizing topic.

The Poll:
Trump has said that even is he’s allowed to tweet again he won’t because he wants to use his own Truth Social version. Since this is failing my hunch is that he won’t be able to resist going back to Twitter where he had a large following.
