He's almost 80. Of course he's moving fast.

Trump is elderly and declining fast. So MAGAs handed him a whole country to wreck in a dementia-fueled frenzy. I knew he would break stuff quickly once he took the oath.

To stabilize him and allow him to function more smoothly. His speech pattern seems unusually measured.

And switch up the meds according to his day to day mood/cognition and specific events and tasks.

Sometimes he looks sedated and falling asleep.
Other times he is manic and bouncing around.

Other times he is articulate, sometimes he can hardly speak.

It is certain he is being coached sometimes too.

Or I wonder if he wears an earpiece and listening to words as he speaks.

When I saw the list my eyes popped out of my head. Narcotics, uppers, downers, everything.

And I do not care how he leaves the planet, as long as its as soon as fate decides to intercede.

Both his parents lived to be elderly, despite his dad (at least) looking like death warmed over for quite awhile.
