John Gartner (psychologist)
John Gartner is a psychologist and therapist in the U.S.
He graduated magna cum laude from Princeton University in New Jersey and received his Ph.D. in clinical psychology from the University of Massachusetts and completed his post-doctoral training at New York Hospital - Cornell Medical School.[1] Gartner is a therapist with a private practice in Baltimore and Manhattan[2], where he specialized in the treatment of borderline personality disorder, bipolar disorder and depression.
Fitness for Office of president Trump[edit]
Gartner collected in the first months of 2017 more than 25.000 signatures of mental health professionals on a petition, directed to the national opposition leader, Democratic senator Chuck Schumer.[3] At the end of April 2017 he was able to forward the petition with more than 41.000 signatures of mental healthcare professionals to Washington D.C.. [4]
Core of the petition: My professional judgement is that Donald Trump manifests a serious mental illness that renders him psychologically incapable of competently discharging the duties of President of the United States. And I respectfully request him be removed from office, according to article 3 of the 25th Commandment, and so on.
According to Gartner president Trumps mental handicaps are a mix of 1.narcism, 2. paranoia; 3.sociopath; and 4. a dash of sadism.
Gartner and his followers are judging the status quo with this "Commander-in-Chief" very serious and dangerous, reason why they feel legitimized to violate their own professional code. This code, the Goldwater rule, determines that it is unethical to speak about the diagnose of somebody you did not investigate yourself.
Duty to warn[edit]
John Gartner is the president of Duty to warn, an organisation of professionals from several branches where professionals have duty to warn patients, clients and the community if they are aware of a potential danger.
