How did the APA force us to violate ethics?
1. In a case of danger, we are supposed to act, not stay silent (in ordinary situations, we could be held legally liable for this).
2. If in any doubt, a mandatory examination was warranted (no exceptions).
We were told to do neither.

What medical ethics support this?
1. The AMA Code tells us we cannot choose to walk away from an emergency. The APA Code tells us we have a responsibility to the public. The Declaration of Geneva prohibits assisting dangerous regimes.
2. A president does not have immunity.

Of note:
1. These are actual laws (and the Declaration of Geneva a worldwide pledge), unlike “the Goldwater rule,” which is an “annotation” and not even policy for the small private association that created it.
2. No immunity holds for both mental health law and natural law.
