'Mike Pence was ‘on standby to take over’ as Trump made unexpected visit to Walter Reed hospital: report.' By Sarah K. Burris / Raw Story September 1, 2020.

New York Times reporter Michael Schmidt is releasing his new book Donald Trump v. the United States this week and already stories are breaking about the shocking revelations it contains. Reported Sunday, Schmidt described a debate over Jared Kushner’s security clearance and President Donald Trump offering Gen. John Kelly the position as director of the FBI if he pledged his loyalty to Trump over the Constitution.

Excerpts released by the Times Monday revealed a shocking anecdote that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell may be struggling to do his job. Another shocking point was that Vice President Mike Pence was put “on standby” as Trump made a trip to Walter Reed in Nov. 2019. There was another late-night emergency visit to Walter Reed Hospital for a “cerebral event” on August 1.

Reporter Don Winslow tweeted that there have been a “series of” these events, known as “mini-strokes” during his time in the White House. The Trump team has said nothing happened and there was no late-night visit, but the new revelations prove something different happened that would have taken Trump away from being able to serve his duties as president...

1. That often makes a person's behavior more emotional and impulsive.

Though with him, it’s always been emotional and impulsive. But I do think it’s gotten worse.

3. His verbal capacity has also degraded recently.

Inability to form complete thoughts/sentences, his word-vomit, inability to think of complex words--the signs are there.

2. Why couldn't he have just one big one, and end the suspense......?

"Perfect health", huh?

4. Watch him walk down this ramp @ West Point

Unsteady gate
"Fish Lips" flapping
Some kind of little tremor or palsey with his right hand.

5. It all makes sense now. Note his gait and balance problems and mental deterioration even

worse than usual. Bet he’s on blood thinners and bruising easily. They are hiding all this from the American people, who have a right to know. I’m waiting for him to fall on camera. Or have a stroke. But you can bet they are doing all they can to hold him together with spit and scotch tape and keep all this quiet.

6. President Pence is scarier than "president" Donnie Two Scoops.
