I know I'm not breaking any new ground here but if yesterday's presser wasn't a wake up call anyone in government (or legacy media) who cares about the future of the USA, I don't know what is. The sicker he gets the more wreckless and destructive he will get. Are there any GOP patriots?

(250 posts)he;s getting some kind of treatment that requires injections, Maybe the drugs are putting him to sleep?
If that bandage was from the MRI, it should have healed long ago, I had big bruise after cataract surgery, but in less than 2 weeks it's almost completely gone - it us unnoticeable.

(76,057 posts)Leavitt tried to distract from the MRI by talking about his heart but not about his head. And yes
you are exactly right because they didnt give him an MRI @ a cognitive assessment test for no
reason but in the meantime he is letting Miller, Bannon, Kushner, Gorka, Loomer, Musk, and Putin
run the show as they placate Donny by letting him ruin the White House.

(7,969 posts)Been thinking a lot about that episode of Star Trek, the one with the Nazis and drugged 'leader'. I won't let Trump off the hook; he has spent a lifetime abusing others for profit, but now he has become the worn out tool of others like him.

In the episode, the crew of the Enterprise tracks down a Federation observer on a planet dominated by a "Naziesque" regime.

It seemed like a good idea at the time.
But it was stupid. And it was spooky. And --- nobody could figure out how to leave.

(7,365 posts)Even the managers he thought just loved him were just keeping him close out of self defense. He was disliked worse than Ted Cruz.
He partied hard all weekend and slept through most Mondays. Someone finally had enough of him and started setting him up so the VP types caught him snoring. Took about a month and he was gone.
Hate for anyone to lose a job but getting rid of that toxic mess made such a good impact.

(22,044 posts)The last few years he was around he was falling asleep all of the time.
We went to see David Crosby and he was out cold during the concert!
I knew something was very wrong but his "doctors" never paid much attention to it.
After his vein surgeries, he was a goner. Dead about a year or so later. They made a bundle off of him and at the end, I paid the entire bill for his "end of life" care.
Falling asleep and nodding off all of the time is part of DEMENTIA. In my late husband's case, it was VASCULAR DEMENTIA!
Sounds rather familiar doesn't it?

(194 posts)"Shut up...shut up!" She appears to be just as mean as Trump. Shouting down people is their MAGA way of representing their constituents. Why debate issues like a Rhodes Scholar when you can just yell at those who take issue with your bad policies.

(2,058 posts)It is the definition of malignant narcissism. That's who he is and always has been He doesn't own most of the buildings with his name on them. And the ones he does own are underwater. We know all this.
What makes no sense is scheduling these marathon ass-kissing sessions before cameras, knowing full well that he can't stay awake for 15 minutes. This shows that Trump has no operative executive function left in his brain. And he has nobody in his inner circle who gives a shit about protecting his image. On the contrary, everybody around him is there for their own personal reasons and will be just as happy as the rest of us when he is carted out of the WH in either a straight jacket or a coffin.
The time is approaching, and we can expect to see the long knives come out as the Vance people try to get the edge over the MIller people and the Rubio people and the Heritage people.

(37,979 posts)In college, I used to sit next to windows and open them a crack during winter quarter so I wouldn't fall asleep in 8:30 classes. The rooms were all steam heated.
Nowadays, after lunch, I can carb crash in Zoom meetings and get the nods.
I regularly drift off watching TV at night.
I guess what I'm trying to say is Fuck Trump, I loathe him. He's the 2nd worst person in the world (Putin is #1) and I wish he'd died 20 years ago.

(22,044 posts)How long can an 80 year old live with dementia?
AI Overview
An 80-year-old with dementia has an average life expectancy of about 3 to 4 years after diagnosis, but this varies significantly based on individual factors. For example, a dementia diagnosis at this age reduces life expectancy by about three to four years, compared to a diagnosis at age 65 which reduces it by about 13 years. Other types of dementia, like vascular dementia, may have a shorter life expectancy (around 5 years), while Alzheimer's may have a longer one (8-10 years).

My late husband had symptoms for years. He was dx'd in February and gone in May.
Good luck dumpy, you and America need it!

(17,210 posts)when he was answering questions? It's like his staff had prepared talking points from his own statements on various topics.
It's the same thing when he's sitting at his desk in the Oval Office making an announcement or taking questions. This is different from his first term or even his campaign before the 2024 election when he'd just riff bs off the top of head.
