Trump Lives In Fear Of Having Dementia Like His Father

Donald Trump’s cognitive abilities have certainly declined over the years, and that much is obvious to any non-biased observer. His own family has warned that his father suffered from dementia and eventually Alzheimer’s, and according to political analyst Timothy O’Brien, Trump is living in constant fear that he will suffer the same fate. But those worries may be too late, as Trump can hardly speak without slurring and sounding like an incoherent mental patient. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains what’s happening.

This past weekend on M-S-N-B-C, senior executive editor of Bloomberg, Timothy O'Brien started talking about Donald Trump's declining mental state. Which of course is something that the media as a whole is largely ignoring, but it can't be ignored anymore. What we are seeing from Donald Trump, what we have seen in these first 100 plus days in office is on par with what we saw from Biden in the last year of his term. But we're seeing it in the first 100 days of Donald Trump. His cognitive decline is equally as bad as anything Biden has. And if you ask me, I think it's actually far worse. But here is what O'Brien said, and he made a really great point, which is why I wanna talk about this. He said quote as I was watching that clip, you know, one of the things that really struck me is Donald Trump has aged.

When people talk about the things that are going to get in the way of a third term for Donald Trump, obviously it's voters, obviously it's the 22nd amendment, but he's turning 79 in June. He lives in fear of going down the path his father went down, which was dementia, followed by Alzheimer's into his nineties, and I think he's carried that burden forever, watching how he answers questions. Now, compared to Trump 1.0, he slurs his words a little. He looks weary, he has slouched, and I don't know how much authentic enthusiasm he has for the power, uh, and the office he holds, other than the fact that it keeps him out of jail and it keeps him center stage.

But the brilliant point there is not only pointing out that, yeah, if you were to watch a video side by side of Trump in his first term versus Trump at any moment today, you are gonna notice that decline. It, it is visible. It is there, it is real. Something has changed. And it could be that he is following down the same footsteps as his father. His father had dementia for eight years, eight years after being diagnosed with dementia. He was then diagnosed with Alzheimer's, and he lived to be 93 years old. So Trump's not far off from that, especially considering the fact that when you take, you know, environmental factors into account, physiological factors into account, Donald Trump has had a far more rough, intense and stressful life than his father Fred Trump did. So those things wear on you, they age you. So Trump would be right about at the correct age to be developing these two, you know, neurological disorders. That makes sense. His nephew, Fred Trump II,

Had this to say last year. Like anyone else, I've seen his decline. But I see it in parallel with the way my grandfather's decline was. If anyone wants to believe that dementia did not run in the Trump family, it's just not true. And if you need further proof, how about the Alcatraz thing, right? That popped up earlier this week after Donald Trump watched escape from Alcatraz on PBS, which he also defunded. Um, in explaining his pick of reopening Alcatraz, Donald Trump vomited out a word salad saying this, well, I guess I was supposed to be a movie maker. We're talking, we started with the movie making and it will end. It represents something very strong, very powerful in terms of law and order. Our country needs law and Order says the man who's pardoning all the hardened criminals. Alcatraz is, I would say the ultimate, right? Alcatraz Sing, sing and Alcatraz, the movies.
