We Should Push Trump to be Evaluated

 
  There was a time Donald Trump was pressured to release his tax record. Now it is time for us to push him to get evaluated by a psychologist. We, as voters, have the right to know if he is clinically mentally ill. Let him sit down with a mental health practitioner not of his own choosing, and let it be determined if he is.
   From the start,  many mental health professionals have suggested he is mentally ill. Those stories haven't been front-and-center in the news, but they have been covered. One can use the Internet to call up the symptoms of a psychopath and check down all the listings and come to the reasonable conclusion he is a psychopath, or at least a sociopath (a sociopath is much the same, only not as severe).
  If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it's a duck, goes the saying.
  But some mental health professionals say Trump cannot be diagnosed from a distance. You would need to sit him down and delve deeper. You would need to evaluate him through close personal observation. You would need to look at his medical, family and personal histories. 
   So, let's do that. We are preparing to sit him in the most important chair in the nation -- the chair of the presidency. Let's first sit him in a psychiatrist's chair. If it appears he might be deranged, we need to know? Come sit on the coach for a minute, Mr. Trump. We need to have a talk.
   There was a time Trump supporters laughed off suggestions he is mentally ill, mockingly projecting it back to his critics and referring to it as Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS).
   Well, what if he is deranged?
