Top doctor drops bombshell Trump dementia warning: 'It’s about to get worse'

“A prominent clinical psychologist revealed that President Donald Trump's rambling tangents could indicate something disturbing ahead, according to a report on Thursday.
Dr. John Gartner, former assistant professor at Johns Hopkins University Medical School, told The Daily Beast that Trump's "lengthy monologues about his construction projects" show that he has "growing signs of dementia and malignant narcissism—and it’s about to get worse."
The evidence of his cognitive decline has been evident in the way Trump talks about his vanity projects, including the White House Ballroom or the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.
"Tangential speech is one of the diagnostic criteria for dementia," Gartner told the Beast.
Trump will often move from one topic to another, circling back to the projects that involve his own name, Gartner explained.
"What he’s obsessed with is a function of malignant narcissism. He’s obsessed with things that reflect glory on him," Gartner said. "He’s changing Washington D.C. to Trump D.C."
And although the White House might argue that Trump's health is not in decline, the reality shows otherwise, the doctor argued.
"It’s only going to go downhill from here," he said.“
My comments:
Dr. Gartner is absolutely correct and is pointing out the elephant in the room. Trump has been on a downhill trajectory for years. His dementia continues to progress and the threat he embodies worsens by the day.
His first misadministration including a few close “handlers” who kept his worse instincts in check at least long enough for his fleeting attention span to forget the things that outraged him at the moment and move on to other trivial crap that made no real difference. So, while little of worth was accomplished, at least his vilest of instincts didn’t manifest like they are now.
Those “handlers” are gone—replaced with more unstable people all of whom are almost unbelievably incompetent.
The obvious stress of his many, many failures further accelerates his plunge into his dementia.
He will rant on and on about his ballroom, his reflecting pool, his telephone scam, his illegal tariffs, his name on the Kennedy Center, etc. all the while trying to indict & vindictively prosecute his perceived enemies.
Meanwhile: nothing of worth is accomplished. His crimes continue. He flails and defames brave reporters who actually try to interview him about the issues Americans care about, he rages, he acts like a spoiled two year old cry baby…
And the problem gets worse. His dementia increases. He destroys our country. And evil men like Stephen Miller, Kegsbreath, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr, TOAD Blanche advance his delusional & criminal programs and policies.
