Trump Is Showing Gross Signs of Dementia: Expert

Sunday, February 25, 2024

According to psychologist Dr. John Gartner, formerly of Johns Hopkins University Medical School, Donald Trump's slurring and inability to sometimes formulate complete sentences appears to be a sign of growing dementia and possibly early stages of Alzheimer's.

Trump was already insane. His rotting cognition will intensify his worst personal traits. We can hope the decline is steep enough that the gibbering psychopath can be put quietly away before November.

Now Trump is even giving Alzheimer's a bad name.

What's next... he shoots someone on 5th Ave and none of his cult cares?

Now Trump is even giving Alzheimer's a bad name.

And yet he is Republican's best and only candidate for POTUS.

and fellow experts are not pointing out the warning signs nearly enough.

After the Goldwater debacle (Liberal psychiatrists making proclamations about his fitness) the APA, American Psychiatric Association made it an ethical violation to comment on public figures you have not clinically examined. I suspect the APA, American Psychological Association, has a similar bylaw.

Trump will simultaneously claim that he's fit as a fiddle and entirely capable of discharging the duties of president of the United States but too mentally feeble to stand criminal trial.

The MAGAts will nod their heads in agreement so vigorously that we'll hear their pea-brains ricocheting inside of their skulls.

Without his stage makeup, Trump does look like the pressure of the campaign and monetary judgments against him in New York are aging him exponentially with the interest on his half billion dollar debt.

The clock is ticking and I don't think that easy win in South Carolina is going to pay much. It was no bellwether.

Doesn't matter.

Pres Putin just needs a puppet in the Oval Office, not necessarily a cognitive puppet.

You can say a lot about him, but at least Biden knows who he is running against.

Stress is probably a factor with Trump. It's very stressful for him to stand up there and try to convince people that he is something that he is not. It gets hard to remember.

His lies are in one place while his mind is someplace else.

And also he won't wear his glasses in public because he thinks that makes him look weak. So sometimes the teleprompter looks blurry.

Typical Democrat playbook: accuse the other side of what you are doing:

1.) 2016 Russian collusion when it was Hillary
2.) Trump rape when it was actually Biden molesting his daughter
3.) Democrats accuse Russia of blowing up their own pipeline
4.) Now Dems accusing GOP of wanting an open border

But, the dementia one is the funniest of all because it is so transparently false. The Italians are openly mocking Biden and if we still had comedians and an honest press in this country, the mocking of Biden would be on another level. The guy is actively soiling himself at events at this point.

Why why was putin funneling money to the GOP instead of the DNC?

Why did trump choose a russian asset as his campaign manager?

Why did trump choose putin's favorite people to staff his white house?

Why did trump immediately try to lift sanctions on putin?

Why was mueller barred from investigating trump's financial ties to putin?

The evidence is clear, and only the morbidly political hack or troll would even try to defend Trump now.

Another month or so, and the dominos will begin to fall. They'll seize his properties, he'll be bankrupted, Melania will file for divorce, and the rats and worms that chose to worship at the foot of the fattened golden calf will begin to scatter...or die trying to rebel...

Well at least the Biden camp has a backup plan that involves a woman who made history.

The Trumpanzees on the other hand are trying to find one they don't want to hang at some future date.

She's the primary reason he's running for a second term instead of passing the baton - she's more unpopular than he is.

That isn't the dunk you think it is.

#50 for most of his presidency she's polled worse than he has. If they've pulled even recently it's really bad news for Biden this November.

Surely you are aware that polling numbers do fluctuate, right?

No shocker that trumpies are more eager to talk about unreliable poll numbers than they want to talk about trump's corruption, crimes, and coup attempt.
