If Trump had dementia, how would we know? Do you think Trump has declined since first term? Whataboutism w/ Biden is NOT the question?

[DrPepper12]

What are the signs and symptoms of dementia?

Signs and symptoms of dementia result when once-healthy neurons (nerve cells) in the brain stop working, lose connections with other brain cells, and die. While everyone loses some neurons as they age, people with dementia experience far greater loss.

The signs and symptoms can vary depending on the type and may include:

Experiencing memory loss, poor judgment, and confusion

Difficulty speaking, understanding and expressing thoughts, or reading and writing

Wandering and getting lost in a familiar neighborhood

Trouble handling money responsibly and paying bills

Repeating questions

Using unusual words to refer to familiar objects

Taking longer to complete normal daily tasks

Losing interest in normal daily activities or events

Hallucinating or experiencing delusions or paranoia

Acting impulsively

Not caring about other people’s feelings

Losing balance and problem standing for a reasonable amount of time

Typical questions might include asking about whether dementia runs in the family, how and when symptoms began, changes in behavior and personality, and if the person is taking certain medications that might cause or worsen symptoms. ms with movement.

Yes. Trump has declined SIGNIFICANTLY

Yes. Trump has declined A BIT

No. Trump has NOT declined at all.

No. Trump has gotten MORE VIGOROUS

Yes. Signs of dementia were evident in HIS 1st TERM

I can't read. What about Biden?

[BonzoInBitburg]

The one thing I've noticed is that his ramblings after answering a question are becoming more incoherent and bizarre. He didn't do that as much in his first term. I'm seeing much more policy formed from rage than following a plan. Tariffs started in the 10-30% and because he's now pissed off at the world for not falling in line, 50-100% tariffs are the new normal. That is a big deviation from 9 months ago. His vindictive actions against lawyers who represent people or companies suing him, or who defend people he's suing is irrational at best and suing everyone who says one bad word against him is not smart at all. I didn't criticize his first term until he botched the handling of COVID but this term is not going well because of his irrational behavior.

[DrPepper12]

TY for that honest assessment

[DryGermanGuy]

People that were around during his father’s dementia decline will probably be the first to notice the similarities.

[DrPepper12]

His sister & niece say they see it

[Amy10223]

He went into the hospital on Friday, and it’s all hush-hush. It’s pods that they are testing him for cognitive impairment, stroke, or other issues. A sister of mine says she doesn’t think he’s going to be finishing his term.

[Anonymous]

Dementia would be indistinguishable from all the insanity we've endured from him for 9 years

[DrPepper12]

Agreed 💯

[msc545]

Experiencing memory loss, poor judgment, and confusion are the most common. I think he has had "Not caring about other people’s feelings" his whole life.

[DrPepper12]

Correct. Sociopathic narcissist just like dad & his mob atty hero Roy Cohn.

But Dad had Alzheimer's too... He's terrified of getting it.

[Anonymous]

Just remember as Trump goes to the hospital for whatever is really going on with him, he is fortunate to have the best health care in the world which is paid for by US tax payers at the same time as he is ripping away basic health care from the same people funding his.

[AngryCarl2]

He's deteriorated to about the same level Biden was at when he became President. Although with Trump it's hard to tell how much is dementia and how much is just regular stupidity.

[Ariesman81]

This soybean fiasco is definitely reminiscent of his days as a Democrat

[DrPepper12]

Touché

[exitseven]

Trump is getting better especially since he got shot. He seems to be a different guy. He is more motivated than ever to not only make America Great but to fix the worldwide problems that Biden let happen.

[exitseven]

Trump has multiple press conferences every week. He does not use a teleprompter. He answers questions from sometime hostile reporters right off the top of his head. He answers questions about the myriad of issues facing America and he always has an answer. and he looks like he is having fun.

[DrPepper12]

He's NEVER answered a question coherently or dieectly. Pick ANY transcript and post it. I dare you.

[Danzigdawson]

Yeah, @DrPepper12 you don' get it! trump is the single most brilliant person you and I will ever see in our lifetimes. He's a once in a millenia kind of person.

You hand him a telepromter? He trashes it and says "fuck that! I don't need that crap!"

A hunched, grey-skinned, dishonest, evil reporter asks him a tough question, frothing at the mouth from anger and sexual frustration? He answers by making a 45 minute long doctorate-level exposé, citing facts, sources, sketches he made, graphs and even going as far as discussing the greco-roman origins of the subject (s) being discussed.

He possesses extensive and deep knowledge of just about anything that exists in the whole universe.

He knows how to terraform Venus using limited ressources and current technology.

And he has such a good heart... people just don't know how kind, loving and generous that man is. He always smiles, always knows how to put a positive spin on just about any setback.

[exitseven]

@Danzigdawson I always knew that you would eventually figure it out.

[msmissydc]

I dont think he has dementia. He is just stupid but powerful.

[Likes2drive]

I haven’t seen any signs of dementia with Trump yet, he's the same as before. With Biden it was pretty obvious

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Trump doesn't lose his train of thought when he is talking and talks normally.

Biden is all over the place verbally which is a sign of significant mental decline.

[seeyounexttuesday]

He hasn't. You're desperately trying to project everything the guy you voted for did on the current guy.

It's lame and stupid, but you keep doing it.

[chrissykerdock]

trump is sharp he may tell lies

[DrPepper12]

"may" has shattered & imploded under the heavy lifting it's doing in your comment

[chrissykerdock]

he clearly favors the rich
