a better comparison could be given.

In the example above, the Twitter poster compares Trump at a 2015 Trump rally to Trump reading from a teleprompter yesterday at the White House.

It would be more accurate, and concerning, if the comparisons were before and now teleprompter readings; and before and now Trump rally rants. Because there is a huge difference in his ability to perform.

I wonder if anyone is comparing him based on time of day (sundowning), and the dilation of his eyes (medicated).

I wonder if they have a live-in/traveling doctor to treat and prepare this man for public functions.

The presidency takes a toll on every president. Trump is no different, despite the fact he is the most physically fit, most intelligent president in our nation's history.

I know Trump doesn't do any work ... real work, so that doesn't take a toll on him, but to get that girth up and out of bed, dressed to go downstairs to the Oval, and then have to read/speak publically has to wear him out.

Look at him. He's one massive, yet empty, erosion.
