He is possibly doing on purpose?
He is a con man! Remember the mob member who acted crazy walk around in public wearing a robe and mumbling to himself?
Just saying! His base is still banking on every word Trump says or does!
Trump his dangerous with a corrupt mind!

(3,363 posts)I work as a home aide for the elderly and/or infirm. Those signs of decline can't be faked.
Especially when you see him scramble to try and cover it up. For instance, him saying clime and then saying it again, and then saying They call it climate. Thats a big tell for me.

(82,292 posts)I used to conduct extensive intellectual and personality evaluations with the general population and also
with jail inmates. Trump has street smarts and is ruthless. So I wouldn't put anything past him,
especially if he thinks he is facing jail time. And he knows he won't lose one vote with his base
for displaying cognitive impairment.
But I agree, I think the slippage we are seeing is real.
