69. Yes in dementia the filter goes.

Impaired social judgement, less inhibited, not following social norms.

Trump always broke the rules, but he is worse than usual now.

I also suspect he is on benzodiazepines (tranquilizers), we can see the slurred speech.
This is also adding to his impaired social filter.
