The meme does not state how that number was achieved.  You assumed the poster asked each patient.  I merely suggested an alternative to your conclusion.

"90% of my patient load are liberals"
That's what he said.  How can he know that without discussing politics with his patients? You're saying he might have gotten that data from someone else's poll. No.  Those wouldn't be his patients.  They would be patients of any number of other therapists. 
Back to my statement, he is either unethical, or lying. The good news is, like most stuff that goes viral on social media, this is just something someone made up. It's a lie.  He's lying.

If someone you love went to see a therapist, would you think it was okay for the therapist to ask that person their political leanings? Before this person said anything about politics themselves?

Vegans and lefties both have the same problem, it's their whole personality, so they can't help but tell you about it within seconds of being introduced.

Such people still aren't 90% of his patient load unless he's in a deep-blue big city.

And no, lefties aren't like vegans in this regard, not in my experience.
