No, he's just dumb. He's always been this way. His whole nepo baby life just revolved around people telling him "yes"
He has always been this way but he's more this way now. I was always skeptical about the "Trump's losing it" stories because Trump has always been an idiot and a narcissist who can't distinguish between his fantasies and reality. But now it's undeniable that he seems more confused, out of touch and unpredictable.
I'm still not seeing any difference to anything since his escalator ride in 2015. At most, you can tell when he's not on drugs like that one UN speech.
If you don't see signs of his dementia, then you too need to be checked for it. Yes, he's not the brightest, but his latest spews have been particularly bad and getting worse.
He can say "man, woman, person, camera, TV." What more could you possibly want from the person leading the biggest military in the history of the world?
A respectable golf game and a toilet made of solid gold.
"Respectable golf game"? Don't you know that Dear Orange Asshole once shot a 17? Impossible you say? The ball bounced out of the hole and rolled all the way to the next hole, thereby beating Kim Jong Il's record of 18 holes in one in a row.
There’s even a book about it.

Somewhere on the interwebs, years ago, I read a story about Donnie Douchebag playing golf with Michael Jordan. Mike had landed on the green with his first shot on a Par 3, and Fat Fuck picked it up and threw it in a sand trap. Drumpf's own caddy told Mike what had happened, apparently.
No. Just look at an interview from, say, 2010. He’s coherent. An idiot, a rapist, sure, but he’s not the babbling demented mess he is now. He’s not just dumb, his neurons are peacing out.
The other day I happened to watch a video of him speaking for a minute in 2019, and no, it's night and day compared to now. Sure, even then he had trouble staying on topic, but he had a mental clarity about him that was more recognizable as a speech than a ramble. He's slurring most of his words nowadays, you didn't see that back then. 2019 Trump wouldn't get lost and find himself on the roof of the White House...
Do you not remember him yelling from the balcony of the White House when he had Covid?
Right so he has permanent Covid brain fog, except just caused by an old age illness instead of covid.
