Wow...Morning Joe is 'Going there' discussing Donald's mental health.

111. He has gotten much worse. That's one reason he wants to

Go back and do the familiar things he knows how to do. That's how dementia works, short term memory shorts out. (I have a good friend who is a retired, well respected anesthesiologist, MD. I was talking to him on the phone and trying to help him with some very basic things, he had called me about, like third grade level. Then, we started talking about a mutual friend's medical problems of a year or two ago, and he was a high functioning doctor, using appropriate language and thinking ahead, making connections. I have a similar story about another doctor friend who had a serious ski accident and split open his head. He continued to do surgery after that, and even won some awards. However, he would have an absolute panic attack if something came up he had not encountered before. He could not learn new things well, even though he was still competent at complex surgeries he had done for twenty years. )
DT was never a brain surgeon, but he was functional, ethics aside. He is not up to learning and dealing with new complex stuff, and it has gotten much worse recently. Unfortunately, he does not get people around him who are extremely competent. I do think in that way Jared and Ivanka have taken Bannon down and elevated the generals. It could come down to Ivanka, Jared and the generals stopping him from implementing the codes. As ludicrous as that sounds, this whole thing is a ludicrous nightmare.
