Just listen to how he speaks in just the last year alone. There is something drastically different going on inside his mind. My grandmother passed away in 2008 of a stroke before that happened. She was very lively with a voice that could easily fill a room. Towards the end of her life she would slur words talk in a whisper and go on long rambles about nothing or things that happened years or decade ago. I see the same thing happening with Trump now.

He has been profoundly mentally ill for decades. Fucking hell, I knew this as a kid growing up in NYC in the 80s. I find it difficult to accept how dim so much of the electorate has proven itself.

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

Yes, he's been eat up with NPD, and who knows what else, since forever. He was the laughing stock of America in the 80s, 90s, even 2000s. But his mental decline has been sharp and obvious since 2021 at my reckoning, really falling off a cliff in the past 2 years.

I thought you said proudly. But it wouldn't really have changed anything

[–] Septimaeus@infosec.pub 4 points 6 days ago

Yeah he’s had an awful reputation in NYC long before he became a national figure, especially after his public campaign to kill the exonerated five (boys falsely accused of an attack who were convicted and served full sentences before being exonerated as adults).

He’s always been a proudly and profoundly contemptible man.

Has it declined, or has he always been this stupid

[–] entwine413@lemm.ee 38 points 1 week ago (3 children)

It's absolutely declined. Listen to interviews with him from the 2000s and it's a different person.

He's still a pompous, narcissistic asshole, but he can form coherent thoughts.

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

Been beaten up around here for saying exactly this. My thoughts are the decline ramped up in 2021 or so. Problem is, the media just reports quips and sentences. And when we hear him, it's the usual meaningless blather. Read a transcript and it gets scary fast.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 6 days ago

Listen to interviews with him

I'm good.

[–] ziggurat@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Yes hes a different person now, today he would never grab the ass of Rudy Guliani in full drag outfit. Those days are passed (still on YouTube), today he is just longing for those days

[–] BestBouclettes@jlai.lu 6 points 1 week ago

He's not falling from a great height, but he's definitely falling

[–] n3m37h@sh.itjust.works 18 points 1 week ago

He's hit rock bottom 10 years ago, stupid illiterate fuck

[–] TomMasz@lemmy.world 17 points 1 week ago

Don't worry, the press will ignore it.

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 week ago

He's said stupid shit all along and the media normalizes it so it's hard to tell.

[–] BigMacHole@lemm.ee 10 points 1 week ago

The Author of this Article has a MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEM and needs to be in an ASYLUM for even SUGGESTING something BAD About Dear Leader Trump!

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 9 points 1 week ago

considering his decades of cocaine and adderal abuse that led to fecal incontinence, i would say yes. and his obsession with orange concealer on his face.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I applauded that decision, but the reality was that despite Biden showing his age, it was clear more often than not that he remained sharp and had a deep knowledge and understanding of both politics and the world. The 82-year-old even managed to leave us with a growing economy, which Trump has since tanked.

There’s a ton of people on this site who would disagree with this.

[–] giacomo@lemm.ee 6 points 1 week ago (2 children)

no, he's always been retarded

[–] 000@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 days ago

Just so you know, the downvotes are for using the r word

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

He has. But didn't always have dementia.

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Why are we even talking about this? We should be shouting it.

[–] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 5 points 1 week ago

Is Trump in mental decline?

Yes

Sounds worse than Biden ever did

No

Ohhhh earth riderwhywhywhywhywhy

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Of course he is.

And now his cult has democrats' unsuccessful coverup of biden's decline to point to whenever democrats say anything about trump. The scare quotes OP put around mental decline are just more denial of the obvious.

[–] TankieTanuki@hexbear.net 4 points 1 week ago

Where's the video?

[–] Bebopalouie@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago

No shit, Sherlock

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 3 points 1 week ago

He's flatlining, but so are his cultists

thank you shitlib culture warriors for being literally unable to say Trump Bad without it also being an oblique defense of Biden/the democrats/etc

[–] AF_R@hexbear.net 0 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

what say you about Trump's rambling?

Man it’s genuinely hilarious to see liberals descend further into actual derangement. Like, they’re not even living in reality anymore.

Is this supposed to be some kind of “gotcha”? That your candidate’s brain was just as melted as the Bad Orange so we should have elected them instead?

That’s totally a successful electoral strategy. Keep it up, DNC machine!

Imagine how frustrating it must be to be a liberal right now, as reality tears apart your entire ideology and foundation of living on a daily basis. The sheer mental gymnastics and cognitive dissonance that must be required to be a liberal is, without exaggeration, driving them insane.

Comrade, Putin isn't paying you enough to spew this propaganda.

The real trump derangement syndrome is the cult that says it's great to take a swim in toilet water or wiping your poo on the walls of Congress is somehow patriotic.

What a bunch of weirdos!!!
