Giuliani: FBI, prosecutors investigating Trump belong in the psych ward

Source: The Hill


BY MORGAN GSTALTER - 06/16/18 07:22 PM EDT

President Trump’s lawyer Rudy Giuliani suggested on Saturday that FBI agents and special counsel prosecutors should go to a psychiatric ward instead of investigating Trump.

“Instead of investigating President Trump, they should go to Bellevue,” Giuliani said, referencing the infamous Manhattan psychiatric ward.

“Wackadoodles,” he added, waving his hands by his head with wide eyes.




The former New York mayor made the comments in Staten Island while campaigning for Republican Rep. Dan Donovan, New York-based Spectrum News NY1 reported. Donovan, who has been endorsed by Trump, is currently running a tight reelection race against former Rep. Michael Grimm (R-N.Y.).

it is Ghooliani. Why do I feel like I'm living in a world where the inmates are running the insane asylum? Yes, because I am living in that world, we all are.

By all means, let's lock up political rivals and bureaucrats just doing their job in mental institutions and throw away the key. I'm pretty sure that's in the Constitution somewhere...

Sorry Rudy, it's readily apparent who is nuts and who has the goods on him. Your projection attempts will ultimately fail.

He's getting closer to what needs to happen. Just not for the people for whom it needs to happen.

Referring to psychiatric patients as wackadoodles? That's just ignorant stigmatizing of people with mental illness. He ought to be ashamed of himself, but as a sociopath I know that is not possible.

And just as ignorant is his suggestion that people who hold a belief consistent with known facts have a mental illness. In fact it's the other way around-the really sick people are people like him and his buddy trump (and many others) who appear to be divorced from reality, and promoting ideas that are demonstrably untrue. That's the virtual definition of a delusion, and the fact that there is a situation of "imminent danger" arising from their "delusions", THEY actually qualify for emergency psychiatric admission based on NY State law.

One more thing: Bellevue is an excellent psychiatric facility. We'd be happy to do an emergency psych eval on Trump and Giulliani. Someone please just call EMS. They preferentially bring the toughest cases to us.
