"(American Psychoanalytic Association) has told its members (to ignore the Goldwater rule)"
Note: The American Psychoanalytic Association is NOT the same as the American Psychiatric Association, which has the Goldwater rule.

A leading psychiatry group has told its members they should not feel bound by a longstanding rule against commenting publicly on the mental state of public figures even the president.
The statement, an email this month from the executive committee of the American Psychoanalytic Association to its 3,500 members, represents the first significant crack in the professions decades-old united front aimed at preventing experts from discussing the psychiatric aspects of politicians behavior. It will likely make many of its members feel more comfortable speaking openly about President Trumps mental health.
The impetus for the email was belief in the value of psychoanalytic knowledge in explaining human behavior, said psychoanalytic association past president Dr. Prudence Gourguechon, a psychiatrist in Chicago. We dont want to prohibit our members from using their knowledge responsibly.
That responsibility is especially great today, she told STAT, since Trumps behavior is so different from anything weve seen before in a commander in chief.
