FFS. Yes absolutely, getting rid of Trump will solve all our problems. And definitely it will make the pandemic go away. Like, tomorrow. It'll all be rainbows and farts from then on out.

Trying to learn about the organization, size, membership etc. info is scant. Most google searches and their website points to their book about Trump.
Can anyone contextualize this organization so their message can be put into perspective?

Well, one thing I can say with certainty is what they think of the American Psychiatric Association:
We take ethics seriously: Both the president and the vice president of this organization have been staunch defendants of the Goldwater rule for decades. This is why we consider what the American Psychiatric Association has done under this administration to be especially egregious. It failed to clarify to the public that the Goldwater rule is an affirmative obligation: that we participate in activities that improve the community and better public health—and educate the public when asked about a public figure while refraining from diagnosis. By inflating the “do not diagnose” part while suppressing the “educate to better public health” part, it gagged an entire profession and protected a destructive government. We object to this politicization of psychiatric ethics by placing a public figure (who is not a patient) over public health and safety (our primary responsibility).
BTW, the APA is the country's largest professional association of psychiatrists, founded in 1844, with almost 39,000 members.
