..."I used to work for Adult Protective Services. We were trained to evaluate when a person was suffering from cognitive difficulties so we could refer them to doctors and services that could diagnose mental health problems and provide help for them. When someone speaks in a “word salad” it is one sign that they are probably suffering from cognitive decline. There are other signs that Trump exhibits as well, such as his Short attention span in briefings, his dislike of reading reports, and his difficulty pronouncing words. If Donald Trump had been my client, I would have referred him for further evaluation by a mental health professional based solely on his speech patterns and vocabulary. They have deteriorated significantly in the past 10 years or so.
I really do not like Trump as a person and hate his policies, but all that aside, it is pretty obvious to anyone who has ever worked in the mental health field that he really should have a thorough mental assessment. Many people who revile Trump may not realize that he is probably terrified and confused, because he likely realizes on some level that he is slipping mentally. Unfortunately, given Trumps character flaws, he reacts by becoming increasingly belligerent, angry, and defensive. It is frightening and dangerous for the President of the US to have these problems. The most frightening part may be the refusal on the part of his party leaders and followers to acknowledge that he has a serious cognitive issue"...
