    He didn’t diagnose him, he said his behavior is consistent with a diagnosis of dementia. Stating your informed opinion =/= diagnosing. His rapid decline is obviously some sort of degenerative cognitive illness (aka dementia). Anyone with relevant training/experience can see it at this point

    • Yeah but you could probably find a psychologist to say that about most people.

      I mean I hate trump and I hope he does have dementia but one psychologist’s opinion isn’t particularly reassuring. Trump has always rambled a lot. If he were forgetting where he is while on camera or whatever that would be a big deal, but we’re not there yet obviously.

        He’s been, literally, this is not an exaggeration, forgetting who his opponents are. Regularly. He thinks he’s running against Obama. He’s brought that up like four times now.

        • There’s a difference between forgetting who you’re opponent is, and saying Obama instead of Biden.

          Um certain that Trump is very far from our best and brightest, I’m just saying I doubt he’s about to forget his own name.
