A Yale psychiatrist and medical doctor joined MSNBC to recommend the network’s audience break off all ties with pro-Trump family members and refuse to see them on holidays.
“The ReidOut” host Joy Reid on Thursday asked Amanda Calhoun, Chief Resident of the Yale Albert J. Solnit Integrated Adult/Child Psychiatry program, how liberal voters should interact with their family and friends who voted for Donald Trump with “the holidays coming up.”
“There’s this societal norm that if somebody is your family, they are entitled to your time. And I think the answer is absolutely not,” Calhoun replied.

“So if you are going to a situation where you have family members, where you have close friends who you know have voted in ways that are against you, against your livelihood, it’s completely fine to not be around those people and to tell them why.”
“You know, to say, ‘I have a problem with the way that you voted because it went against my very livelihood, and I’m not going to be around you this holiday. I need to take some space for me,'” she added.
In an ironic post Saturday, Tesla CEO Elon Musk said the psychiatrist’s response to family members and friends who voted for Trump was “mental illness.”

As Infowars has been reporting, the left has been absolutely melting down since Trump’s historic and decisive election win this week, with some calling for violence against Trump supporters, while others have been posting themselves having unhinged temper tantrums and nervous breakdowns on social media.
