耶魯大學稱特朗普顯然有精神病 美國危險

Donald Trump is “showing a lot of signs” of dangerous mental impairment and may be a threat to the survival of American society, a leading Yale psychiatrist has claimed.

一位耶魯大學的精神科領先學者稱，唐納德·特朗普“表現出許多患有危險性精神損傷症的徵兆”，可能危及美國社會的存亡。

In an exclusive interview with The Independent, Yale University’s Dr Bandy Lee said she had seen a “marked surge” in violence among her own patients since the day of Mr Trump’s election, blaming his strong rhetoric.

耶魯大學的Brandy Lee教授接受了《獨立報》的公開採訪，她稱，自從特朗普當選總統之日起，她的病人普遍表現出“顯著上升”的暴力傾向，這都歸咎於特朗普的“強硬說辭”。

The lecturer, a former Harvard research fellow and chief resident at Massachusetts general hospital, was defending experts at an event she organised after they called the President “dangerous” and “delusional”.

這位教授是哈佛大學的前研究學者，麻省綜合醫院的住院總醫師。日前她發起了一項活動，與數名專家一起力圖證明特朗普具有“危險傾向”和“妄想症”。

The claim led one Republican politician to accuse them of “throwing ethical standards out the window because they cannot accept the election results”.

針對他們的言論，一位共和黨的官員指責他們“由於不能接受選舉的結果，就將道德準則拋到了九霄雲外。”

But Dr Lee insisted she and the panellists had people’s safety foremost in mind and that their judgement was not politically-motivated.

可是Lee教授稱，自己和衆同志學者首先考慮的是人民的安全，他們的判斷並不是出於政治原因。

Asked whether she had similar fears under Barack Obama’s presidency, she said: “No. None of us had this level of concern.”

當被問及“巴拉克·奧巴馬當選總統時是否有同樣的焦慮”時，她說，“沒有。我們都沒有考慮過這個層面的問題”。
