Two psychologists are warning that President Donald Trump’s frequent confusion and mounting physical issues may be pointing to something more troubling than just aging. On their podcast Shrinking Trump, psychologists John Gartner and Harry Segal argued that the 79-year-old president is showing both physical and linguistic symptoms of what they call “early dementia.”

    …we can assess his brain for abnormalities during autopsy. For now let’s just treat him as what he is currently: a domestic enemy to the US and its constitution, a rapist, and a pedophile, among other things.

      They can’t only one could have successfully taken over Maga without issue was just gun down. Why they are so mad. Vance, Miller, hell no one that could rain in Maga and keep up the momentum that Trump spurred. If Trump dies before the term the movement won’t die but it will splinter.

      You also watch as all the Republicans falling in line for Trump would suddenly pivot and pretend they were against the Trump administration from the beginning.

      So lets hope Trump dies asap.

      Even though I think they are preparing for that too. They are probably at this moment building an AI platform to make Trump look alive until they are at the point they don’t need him. So if suddenly Trump stops public appearances altogether and only way we hear from him is prerecorded videos and tweets then you will know he is dead.

      I have no doubt they are willing to weekend at Bernies Trump to keep MAGA in line.

        Even if it’s not as president, Trump as an icon, mascot and priest is very possible. Not like his family, who would control his estate and likeness, won’t use his likeness to their advantage after he’s dead.

          Sure but have you seen his sons? Those two twats couldn’t wraggle the Trump base. They probably follow in his footsteps and bankrupt the Trump brand within a year.

            Apparently you’ve forgotten he has 3 sons, and we don’t know much about Barron, or how compotent or incompetent he is. I have a feeling he’s been getting coaching for him to take over his father’s political legacy.

            Nah, they’ll lose ownership of it and then become targets of their own father after his death if they don’t do what they’re told. I can only imagine the deeply ingrained behaviors they could trigger even when they know it’s not really him.

    Sleepy Don! That’s what everyone calls him folks. He’s low energy and old. So old. I remember when my dog was old like that. Kristi Noem said to me “just shoot him, take him out back and shoot him” and I did. Just like that! Bang! No more sleepy useless old dog. And lots of people said it was a good thing, including my good friend Jeff.

    He was mentally unfit long before signs of aging and dementia started appearing. His supporter base will remain in denial about it for as long as he has a pulse.

    No. Fucking. Shit.

    If it weren’t for his army of handlers he’d be answering a hot iron instead of his phone whole trying to rape an AC power outlet while waiting on hold with Epsteins office

    If medical professionals are giving their expert advice to the Grim Reaper, is Las Vegas placing bets as to where he will eventually kick the bucket? In the golf cart, teeing off, during a meeting, etc…

      Unless he gets shot first, he’s dying peacefully in his sleep within the next 3 years, never seeing due consequences for his many atrocities. Maybe there’s a slight chance he’ll fall down the stairs or have a very public stroke, and holy shit I hope not because wild conspiracy theories about a Havana syndrome type woke commie laser beam assassination would spread like trump’s syphilis.

        I’m thinking heart failure in office, but I bet he goes through 2 or 3 donor hearts before he dies faster than they can get a new one in him.
