Let's stop mincing words and call a spade a spade. 𝙃𝙚’𝙨 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙠 𝙧𝙖𝙫𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙢𝙖𝙙.

Nah he’s just a dick.

Both can be true and the dementia is accentuating the human garbage aspect

Exactly!

I know about that from the UK. One of the worst human beings to walk the Earth.

Nothing human about him just garbage

Alzheimer’s & dementia started its onset at about the same time his emotional development was arrested… I used to think it was in adolescence~ @ 10 But now, I think it was probably earlier than that~ 6? It’s what happens when you leave the vote to the lowest common denominator & stay home.

💯%!!!

True. It’s more a question of emphasis being put more towards illness than his history of being a narcissistic scumbag with a heavy interest in megalomania.

Two things can be true at the same time.

It’s more the emphasis on illness and not his predisposition to being an awful man I mean more than anything. It seems like he’s being given an “oh it’s his illness, it’s not the real Trump” get out card. He absolutely can be both things at once though. Sorry to read that about your family member.

correct!

🎯🎯🎯

Their true personalities are often magnified with dementia. This was true in my loved one's situation.

I don't give one shit if it's loss of impulse control, dementia, or just the stress of the missing Epstein files that is dragging his ass! I'm EXHAUSTED - get him out of office!

Trump's asinine belligerent, aggressive, abusive behaviour is not a new trait. It was always there, but his dementia has destroyed his self control and now he has no filter for his anti-social tendencies. And it will get much worse!

He's always been thin skinned, had no self control, and vindictive. Whatever filters he has had are crashing out. No one is going to do anything about it, ever, until he strokes out.

Time to take Trump to go live on a farm.

Not just his adult life.

I thought Rs said empathy is dead

It’s so hard to tell for sure that it’s related to Alzheimer’s dementia when a person has been aggressively obnoxious his entire life.

Can help * It doesn't.

Oh good lord, you're posting this too? The problem is Trump, it isn't dementia. Stop putting this off as a medical condition, when he's been a vile, immoral narcissist his whole life, and dumb as a rock besides.

Justifying his abhorrent behavior is hardly helpful.

The excerpt that was posted ends with some version of "they can't help it." There is absolutely no reason to even imply Trump can't help it when he has been this way his entire life. That's why you don't blame it on dementia.

On purpose? The impression is of seething rage and aggression bubbling over at the slightest provocation.

It's called misogyny, for some reason mainstream in the fascist circles.

He was always inconsiderate and insulting to others. He's just gotten worse in his obese years.

Fuck that, put him DOWN!

Fuck that. While there's no disputing the dementia allegations, Trump is acting this way on purpose and needs to be held accountable.

And calling people "stupid" is what little kids do.

He doesn’t have dementia. He’s just rude to everyone.

I do too.

He's going to strike out or throw something soon. This is elder abuse

Dump's definitely acting "this way" on purpose because he's always acted this way He may even be kinder with late-stage Alzheimer's because he naps more, so his mouth stops moving

methinks more an AssHole WITH mental illness

Huge amount of time for all things on MT but I can’t help but think you’re missing the woods here.The issue is not 1 man, 1 Cabinet, 1 Govt.The issue is that at least 33-38pc of the American population are equally - or more so since they don’t have the wealth of the others - aggressive. Now what?

That stage is called “sundowning”; Becoming aggravated like a child who is not getting their way; pounding their fists, or heads into a wall, the floor, etc. We went thru this with my mother.

You nailed it.

LMAO - understanding it doesn't help make it OK when it is POTUS. So infuriating and funny at the same time.

Lashing out when cornered is also the behavior of the malignant narcissist.

Agree. My beautiful mother suffered from dementia for over 14 years. Aggressiveness was the final stage before departure from this 🌎.
