It's pretty self evident at this point that the president has dementia.


Listening to that speech he made to the captive audience of military generals a couple days ago it's painfully obvious that he's deteriorating rapidly. He sounded bad last year, and this year he sounds like he's ten years older. He sounds like he's had a few mini-strokes and I would not be surprised if he had a major one soon.


I was wondering if it was just me noticing a severe and rapid decline from that speech. If I didn't know better I would have assumed he was drunk.


It's wild to go back and watch him in 2016 as a comparison. His manner of speech has always been so bizarre that it's easy to forget that it's not just him "being Trump", there's also a very obvious and severe decline since then.

Meanwhile, all the people who were screaming "Dementia Joe" every two minutes from 2021 to 2024 seem to be conveniently silent this time...


To be scrupulous, Washington Post ran a Philip Bump analysis article on Trump's Age Problem last summer. I think the media believes it has therefore examined all possible angles, implications and ramifications of Trump's decompensation already. No need to belabor the point.
