  1. He already falls asleep in press conferences.  He is already confused at where he is at or how to buy groceries.  He is already easily taken advantage of and easily manipulated.  He already invaded his own country for no reason other than to fabricate a civil war.  For what reason should I be concerned? 

  2. Is the reason because he’s President of the United States?

  4. The real question is dementia trump more or less dangerous to the country than non-dementia trump. I could see it going either way. Maybe it’ll handicap some of his evil lol

  5. I have a hard time believing that a further mentally impaired Trump is going to be much worse for the country tbh

  6. Seriously – how do the tell the difference? He has been “declined” for many years.

  7. Easy for those around him to take advantage of his declining health

  9. Watching that press conference he gave tonight was quite telling on the dementia front.

  10. How many times does the man have to correctly identify a giraffe before you guys get off his case? 🤨

  11. Worried about not having enough food and booze to celebrate, right?

  12. I’ve seen enough people with dementia to know that he’s going to roll out the N word with a hard R soon.

  13. Fucking imagine the horror if this mother fucker *wasnt* in cognitive decline

  17. Feels like every week someone “warns” us, and meanwhile Trump’s cognitive test is still just counting elephants and drawing a clock that looks like a pizza.

  18. Worried about him or worried about the rest of us? Because he has exclusive access to the n-word like you wouldn’t believe. And he would love to use it in the right company.

  20. Which sounds better:

    “Sleepy Don”

    or

    “Sleepy Donnie”?

  21. We shouldnt let old drive nor run a country to the ground.

  24. Given the way Grumpy Dumpty has been screwing the country, he’s gonna hang around for the full 3 years growing increasingly demented with MAGA weekend at Bernie’s his husk in office to keep themselves from giving up a shred of power.

    Wish it was the fastfood catching up with him first.

  25. The 25th amendment is useless when his cronies are willing to “weekend at Bernie’s” him to enact their agenda.

  26. I’m only worried by a “Weekend at Bernie’s” type scenario where they prop up a dead man like everything is fine. GOP should be scrutinizing Dementia Don pretty carefully. The man is not right in the head and was never a good choice to be “Leader”.

  27. We should probably all fear the “I’m about to die, so I’m going to take everyone with me” phase.

  28. I’m “worried” that his decline isn’t occurring as fast as it should.

  29. Great let’s just throw this on top of the pile of identical articles we’ve all read over the last 8 or so years.

  30. I’m only worried that the decline is not as fast as it could be.

  31. What is the damn difference?!

    He’s been batshit crazy since he came down the elevator!

    He and his mob attacked the United States Capitol on Live TV, attempting to kill his own Vice President and overturn an election he claimed to have won in his own mind.

    And half of us let him!

    Donald Trump is a collective madness. He’s the last throes of a dying presumption and ideology that has now stolen a decade of our lives on its way out.

  32. I’m not worried about his decline. My worry is that he improves.

  33. >A top doctor has warned that there’s “reason to be worried” about President Donald Trump’s declining health.

    >His comments follow a New York Times report revealing that Trump had dramatically reduced his work schedule compared to his first term in office, carrying out 1,029 engagements against 1,688 in the first 10 months, a drop of 39 percent.

    >Now, a leading public health physician, Dr. Vin Gupta, has claimed that Trump is visibly slowing down, saying “clearly something is happening” to his mental capability.

    >“Clearly they’re not getting MRIs just because that’s just the moment that we live in,” Gupta said during an appearance on The MeidasTouch Podcast. “There’s a reason, and they’re worried.

    >“Frankly, piecing this all together, there’s a reason to be worried based on his public performance.”
    …
    Speaking to the press on Air Force One, the president admitted he had undergone the scan during a visit to Walter Reed Medical Center on Oct. 10, but was evasive about why.

    >Gupta also questioned Trump’s mental fitness. “It is clear there is age-related cognitive decline, that’s obvious,” he said.

    >“His response to somebody fainting in the Oval Office conveyed that, he didn’t show any signs of concern, he didn’t really do anything, he was slow to respond—and that slowness and fatigue you’re seeing more and more in his public events.”
    …
    Gupta also pointed out that he’s “confused a lot,” and “sometimes mumbles incoherent nonsense when he’s asked a question in the press pool, in the Oval Office.”
    …
    A key concern, Gupta said, was Trump’s well-known aversion to exercise. It’s been reported that Trump regards the body like a battery with finite energy, and exercise only diminishes that charge.

    >“President Biden was active on the weekends,” Gupta said.
    …
    He added, “Physical activity is one way to guard against the onset of cognitive decline.”
