Click here to view entire Doonesbury comic a portion of which is shown above. The first story I read this morning about Trump’s dementia was this on RawStory: The RawStory article featured Dr. John D. Gartner, the founder of Duty to Warn. It linked to this longer Salon article which has other interviews in addition…

Trump’s dementia is the election story that the media should focus on… and with some exceptions they don’t want to touch it with a ten foot pole. Some portions of this blog were published in yesterday. If you look with Trump dementia on Google news these are the first links that you see. Scroll down…

It is more likely that if Trump does have early dementia he will mix up words, show signs of confusion, go off on tangents, repeat himself, have lapses in memory or misremember things, stop talking in the middle of a sentence, and even get a befuddled look on his face. This will be in stark…

Dino Sajudin is hardly a household name. He’s a former doorman at a Manhattan building managed by the Trump Organization. He called the National Enquirer tip line late in 2015 telling them he’d overheard other employees claiming that Mr. Trump had fathered a child out of wedlock with a woman who previously worked for him.…

I’ve been listening to the Supreme Court hearing all morning. My title says it all. My illustration shows Trump in a seat near the front although he’d really be sitting in the section reserved for guests in the back or on the side (see Supreme Court website). Read previous blogs

The featured print National Enquirer story is about Scientology which is hardly a hot topic these days. On the top it features Mariah Carey’s boobs next to an article about bird flu and Morgan Wallen who I never heard of. I was surprised to discover that their website as far as gossip stories wasn’t half…

Trump’s criminal trials are almost guaranteed to be a spectacle given his bombastic temperament, egomania and megalomania, mastery of stagecraft and propaganda, and what is in total a disagreeable personality that borders on the sociopathic if not psychopathic. Chauncey DeVega summing up Trump

Trump just pulled a Jan. 6th by posting this on Truth Social: Why are Palestinian protesters, and even rioters, allowed to roam the Cities, scream, shout, sit, block traffic, enter buildings, not get permits, and basically do whatever they want including threatening Supreme Court Justices right in front of their homes…. This is the rest…

New April 23rd: Maggie lives rent free in Trump’s brain: This is what Maggie Haberman wrote today (subscription): Maggie Haberman (bio) is a gift! Trump has a unique relationship with her. He probaby reads what she writes so I assume that when he sees her describe him like this it really gets to him. “Mr.…

Former Apprentice contestant and White House adviser Omarosa Manigault Newman told MSNBC’s Jason Johnson the following on Thursday evening: “I will tell you, I have had to sit through long ceremonies with Donald Trump. I’ve had to sit next to him during long church services or different policy events. And Donald Trump cannot focus, nor…

By now no doubt you’ve seen this story on TV or read articles like this: Barr said: “I think the real danger to the country — the real danger to democracy, as I say — is the progressive agenda. Trump may be playing Russian roulette, but a continuation of the Biden administration is national suicide in…

I don’t know what qualifies someone to be called a fan of Jimmy Kimmel, but it would appear that one thing we know for sure is that Donald Trump watches his show and doesn’t think twice about how blasting him on Truth Social just gives him more publicity. It also no doubt pleases Kimmel and…

One might think that a sensible lawyer would admonish Trump not to go on rants about how evil the judge is and how he’s being persecuted everytime he faces cameras at the courthouse. Instead, he might consider simply saying that he’s innocent and is confident that sensible jurors will acquit him of all charges. Instead,…

Melania may not relish the idea of living with an old man who is incapable of love and whose dementia is getting worse

Rather than write something about ‘”Trump has a big beautiful plane’: Spokesperson explains strategy to deal with trials“ which is in RawStory today I thought I’d simply (well, not so simply because it took some time to put together) make an illustration. Quote: Trump campaign press secretary Karoline Leavitt said the former president was going to win the…

I learned about this from the RawStory Article below: I think the funniest one was from @vampire_skwid who saw a resemblance to musician Kenny Logins and posted “Why is Kenny Loggins giving Trump a shoulder massage?” Try as I might I still can’t manage to get one of my snarky X posts quoted on a major…

People who have been ingoring this have to understand that what comes out of Trump’s mouth shows us what is going on in his brain.

Trump’s double-talk on abortion could terminate his chances to be president again, by Hal Brown, MSW
Thank you Arizona GOP. Not only may you have lost the state for Trump, but you have kept abortion in the news. The question of abortion rights has forced Trump into uttering gibberish about the will of the people and states rights and talking about executing babies after birth.

Watch the video here. The video prompted Ron Filipkowski, editor-in-chief of Meidas Touch to write: “Melania looks like she’s in a hostage video tonight. Blink twice if you need help.” You can also see that Melania, who was a fashion model who knows how to affect a happy face, is not only looking like she’d…

I was inpired to write this after reading the article by neuroscientist Bobby Azarian, in RawStory+ How Trump supporters’ brains prevent them from changing their minds. Consider this excerpt from the article: A seminal study by social psychologist David Amodio and colleagues at New York University suggests that the typical conservative is not likely to be convinced…

I thought a way to share this with as many people as possible was to post it on X. I was amazed at how many people saw it. I know many people refuse to use X because Elon Musk now owns it. Even so, it is the only way to reach thousands of people if…

‘Set things straight’: Chilling poll shows how far Republicans are willing to go by D. Earl Stephens is truly chilling. You can read the article or merely look at the results of the NPR survey which led to the author writing it: Here’s a small sample of the comments which led me to post my…

Trump is now saying he’s willing to go to prison just like Nelson Mandela, and his behavior is inspiring artilces like Trump’s ‘rambling incoherence’ sets off alarms as his rally ‘craziness’ ramps up: analyst… and if you do a Google News search for Trump dementia you come up with this…(the clinical social worker in the…

There are a few kinds of tanks, what you see above and of course the gas tank in your car. There are even two kinds of tanks related to the word stock. From what I can tell the term tank or tanking when referred to stock, or any other drastic failure, is derived from the…

As far as I know there is only one neuroscientist who has written about Turmp’s dementia. This is Bobby Azarian, a neuroscientist on the faculty of George Mason University, who wrote the following in March: A neuroscientist reveals how Trump and Biden’s cognitive impairments are different. Excerpts: As a neuroscientist myself, the question I’m mulling…

Jack Smith was handed what should have been a slam dunk court victory in the Mar-a-Lago documents case. By fate, or chance, intervened in form of Judge Eileen Cannon who was assigned to preside over the case. Consider the odds against this (above). I wonder whether Trump realized how lucky he was when she was…

There have been lots of famous walls in history and mythology: The Great Wall of China, the wall around Troy, the Berlin Wall, the Trump Wall . They served their purposes with varying degrees of success. So far the wall keeping much of the public from recognizing Trump’s dementia has been incredibly effective. The most…

To fully grasp the reason I think the commentary pubished in The Washington Times and reported by Trum ought to be a satire, a sacreligious on at that, you have to read it.

I have been writing about the indications that Trump has been demonstrating such bad judgment and impusliveness recently that he may have moved from the earliest stages of dementia to a more severe stage: Posting an image of a hogtied kidnaped Biden may prove this.

For a third time this week, Donald Trump went on an unhinged social media attack targeting the daughter of the judge in his upcoming hush money trial. In the most recent post he called her out by name. It fits Trump’s megalomania to see him think he is exempt from the laws and rules that would apply to everyone else. He must be loathe to…

Not that you didn’t “get” the reason I have him holding the Haggadah upside-down… Trump generally knows how to read a room and he knows that 68% of Jewish voters say they support Biden. If he thought he could make a buck hawking a Trump Haggadah, text that sets forth the order of the Passover Seder, without losing…

Christians already have copies of the Bible which they paid a lot less for than what the Trump Bible is selling for. Mika Brzezinski just called Trump’s Bible a “new level of culty” providing me the title for this blog. Did this guy wake up and think he had a brilliant idea for making some…

So where are actual experts in dementia going public about their assessment that Trump has dementia? In order to find at least a sample I went over all the entries from people who signed Gartner’s Change petition and found these who identified that they had specific expertise in dementia:

It really can be any diversion but I can only take just so much of Trump and MAGA news that finding an engaging streaming TV show with numerous episodes to watch helps me relax my mind. When my partner and I aren’t watching TV together I have taken to watchiing reruns of Monk where I…

Michael Cohen discussing the value of Truth Social just mentioned her on Morning Joe noting that Taylor Swift has over 100 million followers on X. This is what Cohen said: “I understand it has like 15 million users on it,” he elaborated. “Compare that to somebody like Taylor Swift who has 120 million followers —…

You don’t need to know the science of why people are so gullible. In fact, when I did a web search for the simple question this was the first article that came up: and I didn’t even use the word incredibly: Our brains don’t let piddling little facts get in the way of a good…

The police depend on the people trusting them and assisting them. They can’t do their job efficiently and effectvelty unless people work with them. Texas SB4 is a right wing political law which will make everyday policing more diffcult and in some instances dangerous.

This was on RawStory this morning: Excerpt: CNN political analyst Paul Begala was unsparing when asked about former President Donald Trump’s latest attack on the majority of American Jews. Trump said this week that the majority of American Jews should feel “ashamed” because they don’t vote for Republicans, while also claiming that American Jews “hate Israel” and even hate…

I can imagine Trump going to all these financial institutions and claiming that his word, or more likely the glorious golden name Trump, is his bond. He could also say that he’s worth his weght in gold. Unfortunately for him, if he weighs 244 pounds, this is only $7,722.829.

Trump has had two very big lies. The first was saying Obama was born in Afirica. He still hasn’t gotten over the humilation of that lie being disproved. Now he’s clinging to the lie about the election being stolen.

If he’s reelected if Trump’s dementia is so bad invoking Section 3 of the 25th Amendment is the first step.

The Republican National Committiee, the RNC, is now co-led by the whiter than white Lara Trump.

Trump not only stinks at being a decent person, he is so repulsive that even if he was put on ice he’d still stink, and once he was off the ice the residual stink would persist.

If you are old enough you may recall the television coverage of the famous 1994 slow speed police chase of OJ Simpson. As far as a similar event goes the media coverage of Trump being taken to prison would rival that. You might have seen Trump’s former lawyer, Ty Cobb, on Alex Witt’s show yesterday…

I have no doubt that Trump called Mark Zuckerberg “Zuckerschmuck ” because he knows he’s Jewish. He selected a term derived from Yiddish to refer to a Jew. This is antisemitism.
