At Trump's age he has what is politely known as a "Senior Moment" when commonly known names or information momentarily (sometimes for days) escape him. It is an early sigh of Alzheimer's that tends to get worse rather quickly and more often.

Trump's doctors would be remiss if they weren't clocking this decline in Trump's cognitively closely.

Of course, Trump would adamantly deny such a thing even if and when the truth hits him smack in the face.

Intervention is sometimes required, depending on the circumstances. The Senate probably hasn't reached the 25th Amendment stage yet . . . but considering the rapid progressive nature of the disease, it won't be long.

My guess is that his staff will keep the disease hidden from the public for as long as possible.

REDIAL

It seems to be headed in that direction. Right now, they're just working hard trying to excuse, cover up and bury his frequent flubs.

Eventually they'll decide that the less the public sees of Trump the better.

They'll have their work cut out for them as Trump continues on his whirlwind campaign tour of reading prepared speeches from a teleprompter. When he gets stumped, he usually reverts to his memorized blah-blah-blah about the 2020 election.

His staff/handlers have their work cut out for themself . . . meanwhile wishing they had a big hook like the one on the old Gong Show.
