IPhA 2024. Psychohistory Forum Panel: The Threat to American and World Democracies in Light of the 2024 US Election
Jeffrey Rubin: The ‘Killer’ and the ‘King’: A Psychobiographical Examination of Trump and His Threat to American Democracy
What is this panel about?
In this psychobiographical study of Donald Trump, I draw on Trump’s family, Trump himself, and journalists and reporters, to attempt to link his indictments to his childhood and his parents’ treatment of him. I also briefly explore three other topics: 1) The Real Big Lie-the fact that Trump is terrified that he’s a “Loser”-not that Biden stole the 2020 presidential election; 2) what the available evidence suggests would happen if Trump eludes jail-time and wins the 2024 presidential election-Trump would operate like a dictatorial king; and 3) Trump-as-King would be the culmination of a ghastly trauma-the final hijacking of his soul in his blindly following his father’s injunction to be a killer and a king. At that moment, Trump would have given up his right to a life that should have been his own.
