John Gartner is a psychologist who, as founder of Duty To Warn, has raised the alarm about Trump's declining mental fitness. This week, we had the honor of interviewing him for a disturbing conversation about why he’s more worried than ever that the media and the public are missing all the blaring red signs that Trump is slipping rapidly into dementia. https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/john-gartner-trump-cognitive-decline
As much as I despise Donald Trump (read that "to the maximum possible level"), it is unethical for a doctor to make a diagnosis of a person not his patient.
@georgetakei Fascinating, thanks. Two small typos, I think: 1) it should be "wide-based gait" (not "gate") and 2) the quote from Harry Segal, Ph.D. is not set as a quote like the others signers of the petition.
@georgetakei what a great election, two 80+, nearly dement, one yells and spits acid any time he speaks, the other falls and forget what he is saying, ...
@georgetakei I don't ever listen to Trump speeches. Not my thing, I don't live in North America, etc.
This interview is fascinating, though, because even though I live in France I have crossed paths with people here who adhere to the "cult" aspect of Trump and like to giggle and mock Biden.
@georgetakei So we have a former president who has mental issues and a current president who has mental issues and a preference for children. I am not seeing much difference. 🤔 🤔 🤔
Trump is definitely showing signs of dementia - and has been for the past couple of years, but it has recently got much worse. I doubt he will last 4 years!
We are all frogs in the pot. Trump's incoherence has been progressively worsening for so long that we've become inured to his senseless blather. He's stark raving mad and no one listens to it anymore, so it just doesn't register.
@georgetakei this should be the Breaking News on NBC, @NBC Totally disgusted with the direction of the network. They are losing their audience, forgetting who is actually watching it.
