Mark Halperin Tells Tucker Carlson Trump Win Would Cause ‘Greatest Mental Health Crisis’ in U.S. History (VIDEO)

Journalist Mark Halperin told Daily Caller News Foundation co-founder Tucker Carlson on Tuesday that he believes a reelection victory for former President Donald Trump would trigger an historic “mental health crisis.”

Trump currently holds narrow leads over Vice President Kamala Harris in every battleground state except Wisconsin, according to the RealClearPolling averages. Halperin, on “The Tucker Carlson Show,” warned that a Trump win could prompt widespread mental health issues, including addiction, divorce and violence.

“I say this not flippantly. I think it will be the cause of the greatest mental health crisis in the history of the country. I think tens of millions of people will question their connection to the nation, their connection to other human beings, their connection to their vision of what their future for them and their children could be like,” Halperin said. “I think that it will require an enormous amount of access to mental health professionals. I think it’ll lead to trauma in the workplace. I think there’ll be some degree of protests.”

Carlson asked the journalist if he was “being serious,” to which Halperin answered he absolutely was. (Read more from “Mark Halperin Tells Tucker Carlson Trump Win Would Cause ‘Greatest Mental Health Crisis’ in U.S. History (VIDEO)” HERE)
