Trumps lesbian niece explains presidents mental decline in just 4 words
The presidents lesbian psychologist niece, Mary Trump, recently took the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), a test used to assess an adults cognitive impairmentand dysfunctions. Donald Trump bragged about acing the test in the past. But even though she did well on the MoCA too, she warned that the president displays evidence of declining mental abilities.The 79-year-old president took the MoCA earlier this year and claimed it was very hard. He then publicly insulted Democratic Reps. Jasmine Crockett (TX) and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY) by suggesting that he would outscore the two progressive congresswomen of color if they took the same assessment.

In all seriousness, Donald Trump is not a well man. We need to continue to focus on the ways in which he is deteriorating cognitively, psychologically, emotionally, and intellectually. This marks the second recent occasion in which a psychologist suggested that the president has demonstrated an immense cognitive decline.In October, Dr. John Gartner told The Daily Beast that the nearly 80-year-old president is exhibiting a massive increase in clinical signs of dementia, exacerbating the presidents malignant narcissism.Gartner noted the presidents disordered thinking and compared his rambling and nonsensical public speeches to dementia patients who pick up on one concrete physical detail and then free-associate away from the original topic. He also noted Trumps fabrication of nonexistent events and his forgetting of politicians and countries names.People dont make those kinds of [recurring speech errors] if theyre tired or if theyre aging, Gartner said. Its something very specific that is linked to dementia and organic, cognitive decline. This is really someone who could wake up and in a state of complete confusion and erratic irritation do something catastrophic.
