Only a PhD from one of our more prestigious universities could say something this stupid.

A Yale University professor and psychiatrist compared President Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler in a series of tweets and said Hitler, unlike Trump, improved the lives of his followers.

"Donald Trump is not an Adolf Hitler," Bandy X. Lee tweeted Monday. "At least Hitler improved the daily life of his followers, had discipline, and required more of himself to gain the respect of his followers. Even with the same pathology, there are varying degrees of competence."

She continued: "A refusal to make comparisons has been a problem, when they have such similarities. Donald Trump’s death count is higher than Hitler’s at the same period."

Lee later deleted the tweet but defended her comparison. "My statement was about how little Donald Trump believes he needs to do to retain his followership, NOT to minimize Adolf Hitler’s atrocities," she said.

A forensic psychiatrist and assistant clinical psychiatry professor at Yale, Lee is a longtime Trump critic. In 2017, she edited a book of essays from other psychiatrists analyzing the president’s mental state. In another tweet in January, the professor diagnosed Trump supporters with a "shared psychosis."

In March, Lee tweeted that Nazi Germany was a "more rational society" than America under the Trump administration. She’s compared Trump and his supporters to Nazis on Twitter before.

Lee has been a member of the Yale University faculty for nearly two decades and is president of the World Mental Health Coalition.

Lee is in gross violation of The Goldwater rule is Section 7 in the American Psychiatric Association's (APA) Principles of Medical Ethics, which states that it is unethical for psychiatrists to give a professional opinion about public figures whom they have not examined in person, and from whom they have not obtained consent to discuss their mental health in public statements.; but you will be surprised to know she has never suffered any negative consequences because of that violation.
