Trump’s increasingly erratic behavior is raising questions about his cognitive ability and the fact is that Trump has noticeably declined since his last time in the spotlight.
Since his first campaign, Trump has had a tendency to ramble,
struggled to
answer basic questions without ranting about his grievances and been
grossly out of touch with how things like factories work. But those qualities have worsened, his energy has flagged, and he has become noticeably more erratic. It’s not just things like cutting off a town hall after a handful of questions to
oddly vibe to his favorite music for half an hour. He’s
getting details completely wrong. He’s
veering more into conspiracy theories and rumors. He’s
obsessed with Hannibal Lecter. He’s
pronouncing words strangely. He’s
mixing up names and getting basic details wrong.
Flash-forward to today, and it’s clear this problem has only worsened. As Trump’s statements grow increasingly unhinged in his old age, major news outlets continue to reframe his words, presenting a dangerously misleading picture to the public.
The political press’s efforts to rationalize Trump’s incoherent statements are eroding our shared reality and threatening informed democracy.
