Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
He may well have done some good work in different areas in the past, but he's letting his personal views and prejudices cloud an area which desperately needs an objective and scientific approach.
Just to take one example, one of the supposed "cures" for autism that he's been advocating for in the previous months has killed at least one child.
I agree that mainstream media is biased and unhelpful, but if you set aside the commentary and focus on bare facts, it's really hard to dismiss some of the very dangerous actions he's already taken, and the notable things he's failed to do.
When you have high-ranking scientists refusing to work for him and quitting, citing his views as unethical and dangerous, I really think it's worth listening.
I'm not here to convince you as you've obviously made your mind up that he's right. And I don't mean that in a disparaging way towards you. I appreciate the fact that the debate has been respectful.
It does feel disheartening though that intelligent women such as yourself are glossing over the very real harm he's doing. And I can't quite fathom out why any scientist would feel able to do that. Objectively, it's genuinely scary that a man like this has power and influence over medical research and policy.
