To put limits on who can run for president.
My suggestion for a disqualification would be
No narcissists, no sociopaths or authoritarian personality types.
( if we applied this simple mental fitness test as criteria for public office, the Republican Party would be fucked)
After all narcissists, authoritarians and sociopaths live to abuse people, abuse power they lie like they breathe and have no empathy .
All the qualities that make a bad president are in them by default because of who they are and they cannot be trusted with anything.
Let alone the nuclear button.
It would be also a safeguard against fascism. Because fascists have toxic personalities and cannot be trusted, abuse people and power. They have no empathy and they are known to be narcissistic.
We would disqualify a person suffering from active psychosis from running because thier mental health.
Why not disqualify narcissists for mental health reasons.?
A presidential hopefuls mental health must be considered and more importantly it should be a disqualifies for this countries mental health and the health of our democracy too .we need to put qualifiers on who can run for president.
