9. Sometimes it's hard to tell with clever, ruthless sociopaths.

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.
