Dr.’s Gartner and Siegel, both seasoned psychologists, began this podcast series to alert the public about Donald Trump's severe personality disorder and worrying signs of cognitive decline. Initially met with a feigned ignorance and neglect by the media, their message is now being recognized as truth, thanks in part to Kamala Harris’s unmatched ability to openly challenge Trump's unhinged behavior.


Dr. Stefan Ducat, a political psychologist, author, and a former psychology professor, joins the show to analyze Trump’s recent Madison Square Garden rally, drawing parallels with events from darker chapters in American history. We’ll explore how the dangerous rhetoric unleashed there revealed Trump's true internal narrative, but also mobilized an instant backlash in crucial swing states like Pennsylvania.


In this episode, our hosts present a stark dichotomy between Trump's chaotic rallies, where he stokes division and fear, and Kamala’s inspirational leadership, which evokes unity and hope. We’ll also hear about how the election is a moral crossroads for America, discussing the geopolitical and domestic stakes of the results.


The upcoming election is not just another political event. It's a referendum on America’s collective psyche—a choice between the chaos of authoritarianism and the promise of renewed democratic ideals. As election day looms, we hope "Shrinking Trump" has served as both a warning sign and a beacon of hope, reminding everyone of what’s at stake, while embracing this moment's potential for profound change. 


And don’t worry - we’ll be back again as the saga continues well beyond the ballot box, paving the way for another important journey of political and psychological insight, post-election.
