this fluctuating alertness could it just be the fact that he is getting older and is in a demanding job sure that's what his many people are going to say as as as justification for that okay fine uh the previous occupant of the white house if he did the same thing would have been held to a different standard different scrutiny a lot of questions and demands for medical data would have been had from uh frankly the mainstream media we're not hearing those things
So I think the fact is, is we're not hearing a lot of questions being asked of this president the way the same questions were asked of the prior president, which is wrong.
Same standards should apply.
And then lastly, I'll just say, he tends to personality and speech changes, often inappropriate comments.
That's frontotemporal dementia for some people as they get older.
And so I can't diagnose him because I don't have a physical exam.
I will clearly say that because I know some people will watch you and I have in this conversation and push back.
We're asking questions, but I think it's fair to ask the question that the leader so-called of the free world cannot put string together some basic thoughts
on social media when he's had time to think about it.
It's rambling.
He often has fluctuating alertness and he is random and is prone to inappropriate comments and behavior.
That is not normal aging.
Necessarily, that is potentially, especially with his family history, potentially something else.
And especially because they've been non-transparent about his medical diagnostics and exactly what's going on there.
I think it's fair for us to ask these questions.
Exactly what you and I just went through, which is, are there issues with memory?
Because often memory loss is the first and most prominent symptom of, say, Alzheimer's disease, which we know runs in the family to some degree.
Does the patient, let's say patient next year, do they have, are they prone to confusion?
are they prone to wandering seemingly random thoughts that are disconnected do they have difficulty following a basic conversation can you often understand their train of thought these would be the questions do they have fluctuating alertness do they have disorganized thinking
personality and speech changes.
