Trump’s Dementia

Anonymous
I feel a lot of blame needs to be placed on the people around him allowing what they know is taking place...to happen at all. They should be more ashamed than trump, who is a narcissist with dementia and in serious cognitive decline. The others have zero excuses and should all be thrown out of whatever positions they hold. Its reprehensible.

The people around him...family, advisors, cabinet, all despise him, but are using his weakness to advance their own agendas.

There is no incentive to disengage.

I don’t know if it’s the same Dr because I can’t access your article but Dr. Bruce Davidson has spoken a number of times about Trump having had a stroke.

Exactly. They’re all trying to ride the Trump train for as long as they can and cash in on all the opportunities for making money that he’s presenting them, starting with his own children and his wife.

Slow clap for the American voting idiots who replaced an unfit president with a deranged and unfit president. I'm not making this up. Voters in the most powerful country in the world actually did this. The current crop of American voters will be made fun of until the end of time.



So much stupid in the US.




Except for the obvious, Biden was fit until he wasn't at the very end, and then the Democratic machine replaced him. And also, Biden et al. didn't mess anything up because the office was in the hands of the good, competent, capable, and extremely qualified staff up until the very end.

The Republicans and the Magas knew what he was from the start; they knew what he would surround himself with, they knew he would grift and graft, demean and subjugate (just not from them or towards them), and they voted for him anyway.

The MAGAs and not that wealthy Republicans elected him because they are sincerely ignorant and conscientiously stupid. The really wealthy, to mega-wealthy, well, we don't have to worry about them; they've done exceptionally well under Trump. As a matter of fact, they do well under any and all administrations.

Biden surely wasn't the worst of the worst as far as presidents go but unfortunately for him, his defining legacy as described by objective historians will be the POTUS who had the worst re-election campaign ever causing his party to lose to our absolute worst POTUS ever. It sucks that we put Biden in that position to fail as an elderly man but it is what it is and we can't go back and change it. We can learn from it so we can be better and stronger in the future.

It’s not normal for a world leader to threaten to “blow up” a country.

1/2 of the strait is clearly in Iranian territory waters. 20 miles out is not international waters.

It’s just a check up. I too am do for my annual checkup …checks notes… next year.


He's had three Walter Reed visits in a year, PP.



And three “routine dental exams” since January.


My own father has early dementia and can only receive one assessment per year, unless there is a major event that warrants a new assessment. I was told that reassessment every 3 months means a diagnosis has been made, and prognosis is poor. The repeated assessments are to track decline.


He likely has congestive heart failure (in addition to dementia), which is why he’s getting seen quarterly. His symptoms are just like my father’s.


What’s the lifespan with congestive heart failure? Asking for a friend.


It’s hard to say, especially with someone who has excellent medical care available at a moment’s notice. My dad had a pacemaker put in, in January 2025, and he died in December 2025. The doctor noted that the pacemaker would only help a little bit and that his heart was going to fail regardless of the device. That said, his death was probably hastened by a number of issues (we had to transfer him to an assisted living facility and my mother passed away that same year, so he was lonely). Trump probably has a ways to go since he can still walk (my dad got to where he could barely walk and that lack of exercise caused more swelling, which led to open wounds that required hospitalization). With the dementia, my father had excellent long-term memory and terrible short-term memory. As he got closer to death, he slept more and more (in the end, he was sleeping most of the day and night). I would say, when they stop moving around and start to lose interest in eating, then things are likely on the downward slope.

Wonder if he would wake up if the background conversation suddenly became about the 25th amendment?

Oh, and we believe my father had a series of small strokes — I can’t remember how long before his death — be cause my mom noticed a change in his face and the development of hoarseness in his voice.

Nah, historians will remember Biden as the president who guided the country out of the morass of the first Trump administration, helped address COVID and restored the economy on the trajectory left by Clinton and Obama...history will be very kind to Biden.
