This could explain so much.
Leading mental health experts — including a former White House doctor — have sounded the alarm over Trump’s ‘cognitive decline,’ as exhibited by the 78-year-old’s ‘rambling speeches and ‘erratic’ debate performance, including some of the falsehoods spouted by Trump, such as babies are “being executed” after birth, schools are performing surgery on children, and Haitian immigrants are eating pets.
“The things he’s saying suggest he’s really lost touch with reality,” said one well-known doctor. “It seems to me likely — although we can’t be definitive about saying anything about anyone at a distance — it seems likely he has deteriorated a great deal.”
Using as an example Trump’s Monday rally in Pennsylvania, where he was mocked for his ‘word salads,’ one doctor pushed for independent and objective testing.
”He said of Kamala Harris: “She had the other interview with the other guy who was a nice guy I think from Philadelphia from Pennsylvania, he was a nice guy, he was asking her all these [inaudible] — the daily take — they don’t take like I do! Anybody wants to go, go what the hell differences they make — they have — and how dishonest was ABC…”
A professor of psychiatry at Weill Cornell Medical College, Richard A. Friedman, said he was “alarmed” by what he witnessed during Trump’s debate performance on September 10. Warning that Trump “displayed some striking, if familiar, patterns that are commonly seen among people in cognitive decline,” he joined the chorus of doctors sounding the alarm.
