	Description:		It's been called everything from the elephant in the room to a forbidden issue...the mental health of the President of the United States. But this doesn't mean President Donald Trump. History suggests several presidents faced mental health issues and something so common is no disqualification for office, but is it a danger to have the leader of the free world without access to a mental health professional? In short: Does the president — any president — need a psychiatrist? Discussing this is John Gartner, psychologist and creator of a petition calling for President Trump's removal, Alex Thompson, politics and policy editor of Vice News, Rebecca Brendel, consultant on the American Psychiatric Association's Ethics Committee, Dan McAdams, professor and chair of the Department of Psychology at Northwestern University and Matthew Dallek, associate professor of political management at the Graduate School of Political Management at The George Washington University.
