If one is following the DSM-5, diagnoses must be made on the basis of personal interview, not someone's public image or reputation.
so he's just playing a psychopath on TV? How is that materially different, when it comes to public servants?
One of those things results in a formal diagnosis, and the other does not.
that is not a material difference.. that is a rather immaterial one (a technicality, as it were).
It's like when a ballplayer hits it out of the park, but the scoreboard for some reason never updates.... the crowd does not begin to question the homerun they just witnessed.
