Shrinks toss aside medical ethics to protest Trump

One of the most distressing developments in the era of President Trump is the growing disregard for professional standards.

Critics complain that America’s 45th president has debased the White House. They say he has brought with him an attitude and spirit that is far below the dignity of the station he currently holds. Between Trump’s rage- tweeting and his petty attacks on his own cabinet members, it’s hard to disagree.

Unfortunately, Trump isn’t the only one failing to live up to the nobility of his position. Many politically engaged professionals, including journalists, entertainers and mental health experts, have discarded years of ethics and standards, jumping headfirst into the muck, and all in the name of sticking it to Trump.

The latest example of this sort of lowering of oneself to meet our gradually degrading politics took place this weekend in New York City, where 125 mental health professionals marched on Broadway, demanding that Trump be declared mentally unfit and removed from office.
