16. He's been sick forever, but he used to do a better job of hiding it.

The frontotemporal dementia is removing his inhibitions, so that he can't maintain the mask of sanity as well as he used to.

He must still have a little bit of self control, though. As enraged as he was, he managed not to physically assault her. One of these days he won't be able to stop himself from doing that, and he'll have to be physically restrained from hitting someone. I dont want anyone to get hurt (except maybe him), but I hope it happens when there are cameras on him, so that the whole world can witness the madness of King Donald.
