Yeah, I know this is an odd, random thing to post about with what’s going on in the world and with all the problems people here have the last thing they are worried about is Dr. Phil.
Anyways, I think he’s a good guy and does a lot of good. He is on 5 days a week and sits with people of every race and background and he manages to give good advice and remain the voice of reason the majority of the time. What he does is difficult and vey few people could be as successful at as he is.
He’s been on the air 23 years and he’s bound to make mistakes but he does it rarely. Some people judge his whole career by a few mistakes he made. Should he have had Shelly Duval on his program? Maybe not but despite his motives he was trying to help her. I don’t think he’s perfect but he can be allowed a few mistakes. With the whole Daniela Bregoli situation it made him look bad but look how she ended up. She’s a multi millionaire now and owes it to the exposure Dr. Phil gave her. I think his support of Trump was a huge mistake but taking politics out of the equation he has faced the most difficult, complicated situations on his show and gave some good advice. All this is just my two cents.
