Bannon has a cure for mental health issues

“I’ve got a cure for mental health issue,” Bannon wrote to Boyle. “Spank your children more.”

These people deserve no quarter. None. I've found myself trying to be empathetic and sympathetic to some that are in tough places at times, even those running as they're caught within the monster they created and are looking for a way to escape.

But no more. These are the monsters under the bed that have crawled out and are attempting to control the levers of power.

that shows how spanking is or is not connected to mental health.

I will say, I don't have a lot of patience with those who piously proclaim "My parents spanked me and I'm JUST FINE!"

Everything about the guy makes it clear why he wouldn't believe in mental illness, and want to beat kids. He's not at all right in the head! Paul Ryan, leader of a global cabal????? That would take a hell of a lot more brains than Ryan could ever have! This guy is totally out to lunch.

Which is why it's going to get far, far, worse before it gets better.

I know these people around Trump, the orange one included, are that extreme and paranoid, but it is hard to really comprehend that it's possible with a candidate for President at the same time.
