Office Hours: Trump's mental decline appears to be accelerating. So why isn’t the media reporting on it?
He's showing even more signs of dementia, but the media is mum





Friends,

Over the last month, Trump’s mental decline has appeared to worsen. Consider:

On Sunday, he posted an image claiming that Barack Obama had been collecting millions in taxpayer dollars from “royalties linked to Obamacare.” (The bogus item was from a satirical website called the “Dunning-Kruger Times,” a reference to the Dunning-Kruger effect — the well-observed tendency of stupid people to vastly overestimate their abilities or intelligence.)

After last Tuesday’s elections, he called “affordability” a “new word” and said Republicans had not talked enough about it, but then blasted it as a Democratic “con job” and declared “I don’t want to hear about the affordability.”


Seemingly oblivious to the economic struggles Americans find themselves in, he has posted incessantly about the new Lincoln bathroom, remodeled in black and white marble with gold faucets and light fixtures; his new White House ballroom, to be built in marble and gilded in gold; and renovations at the Kennedy Center, which he said would be outfitted in marble and “magnificent high end carpeting.”
