Dr. Vin Gupta

He can't get through a speech clearly.

He has word finding difficulties frequently.

He can't pronunciate words that aren't complicated words often.

And he seemingly makes one statement that's pretty grandiose and erratic and then contradicts it often a sentence later.

So that's not clear, linear thought.

And so anybody that was just, again, listening to the speech and the content of the speech, if they were reading it,

They're just reading the thoughts.

You'd have to come to some version of a conclusion that something is not correct from a cognitive standpoint and that there is evidence of decline.

You and I have been talking about this honestly.

I think we're asking the right questions.

We're wondering why his doctors don't know that he got a CT instead of an MRI, why they're putting out editorialized versions of this physical exam and saying he's the healthiest president ever.

There's not transparency coming from this physician team.

So we're asking questions.

And I think it's fair for us as part of the media ecosystem to ask questions and also to call out what's now obvious to all of us that there is clear evidence of cognitive decline.

the first discussion here on his cognitive decline and just consistency of thought.

I mean, here are the facts for our audience.

Medicare is a federally run program, Ben, created under the Social Security Act back in the Lyndon B. Johnson administration.

It's funded primarily through payroll taxes and federal revenue.

There's some basic structure nationwide.

It's run entirely by the federal government.
