I get it -- and I know that you do, too. The truth is that the defendent is a sociopath, in the actual definition. He has a number of the features within Cluster B personality disorders. While certainly not what could accurately be called either "mental illness" or "mental health," the idea of such an evaluation would be fruitless. They could be held to be a useful measure of "risk factors," of course, along with past behaviors. That is where I think they are of most value -- in the legal system. I am 100% confident that the prosecutors have a pretty good idea who they are dealing with. More than a few in the DOJ have read Dr. Bandy Lee's book "The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump." I wouldn't be surprised if the judge is, at least, aware of it.

I agree with you. No hospital would take him. If he continues to violate the court's orders, I think that there will be consequences.
