What are valid examples of Trump exhibiting dementia?
Dixie Westmoreland, Lives blue in a red state
In my opinion, the most glaring example are his “word salads.” He begins talking about one topic, gets off-track and changes the subject, and then goes off on another tangent.
A couple of samples:
“I have broken more Elton John records, but he seems to have a lot of records. And I, by the way, I don’t have a musical instrument. I don’t have a guitar or an organ. No organ. Elton has an organ. And lots of other people helping. No, we’ve broken a lot of records. We’ve broken virtually every record. Because, you know, look, I only need this space. They need much more room. For basketball, for hockey, and all of the sports, they need a lot of room. We don’t need it. We have people in that space. So we break all of these records. Really we do it without, like, the musical instruments. This is the only musical: the mouth. And hopefully the brain attached to the mouth. Right? The brain, more important than the mouth, is the brain. The brain is much more important.”
or
“I’ll tell you this: the European Union, which is a fantastic group of negotiators, they actually, a very, very prominent person who you know well, who’s on your show a lot, said the person at the European Union that is in charge of taxation hates the United States more than any person anywhere in the world. But I really believe that’s true. Every week you see them going after Facebook and Apple and all of these companies that are great companies. Something is going on.” .
Then he says he has the best words . . .
He also gets confused, such as when he talked about his father being from a lovely village in Germany (his grandfather was from Germany; his dad was from New York).
If it’s not dementia, it’s something. Something is happening in his head.
Some of my sources were Washington Post, CNN, and Raw Story. If you google Trump Word Salads, there is a lot of information from several different sources.
