It's Getting Worse
The cognitive functions seem to be leaving Donald Trump at an alarming speed. Whatever debilitating disease he is suffering from, it's not your garden variety Alzheimer's, which is a cruel but slowly progressing condition. There is such a thing as rapid progress dementia, with concrete diagnoses like LBD (Lewy body dementia) and CJD (Creuzfeldt-Jacobs disease, "Mad Cow disease"). While I am in no position to offer a diagnose, what we are seeing from Donald Trump right now is certainly consistent with some sort of rapidly progressing dementia. In any case, he is literally losing his mind right before our eyes, and he seems to be moving very rapidly into the fog.
