The Altered States of America - Interview With Dr. Seth Norrholm - on the Psychological Effects of Donald Trump

This interview was conducted four years ago-but public's concerns remain the same...

Many are worried, anxiety-ridden about what the next four years will bring under a Trump 2.0. This interview was conducted four years ago highlight concerns and anxieties we see today. One major difference, at the time of this interview, presidents did not enjoy absolute immunity for ‘official acts’ - something the US Supreme Court has recently imbued upon presidential officeholders.

Notably, at the time of this interview, the idea of invading Greenland and the Panama Canal were not serious - just fleeting statements by a rambling Trump, today they seem more pointed. At the time, there was no Elon Musk masquerading as co-president. And of course, there were adults in the room to counter Trump’s worst impulses - something that may very well be lacking in a Trump 2.0 administration.

See what an experienced translational neuroscientist has to say about what is really going on, and how it all affects feelings and emotions of the populace. After listening to Dr. Norrholm, many today who voted to put the former president back in office, may want to reflect upon the prudence of their most recent decision to do so. An enlightening interview that strikes at the core of the human psyche and vulnerability - especially in these unprecedented times.

And Don’t Forget to Restack!
