“Not the same person” – right wing outlet admits Donald Trump is in deep cognitive decline
We’re still waiting for any major news outlets to finally start admitting that Donald Trump has dementia in exact words (the closest we’ve come so far is Saturday Night Live referring to Trump as having “dementia” on NBC over the weekend). But after Trump spent his town hall standing there like a deer in the headlights and then spent his rally talking about Arnold Palmer’s private parts, the media is coming closer to admitting that Trump is senile.
For instance the editor of the right wing outlet National Review went on ABC News this weekend and admitted that Trump is in “decline” and that he’s “not the same person” he was in previous election cycles:
.
“Trump is declining. He is exhibiting less control. He's always been meandering, but it's gone to a new level. You see a decline there and it is I think related to age.”

This is still not nearly good enough. Donald Trump is consistently displaying symptoms consistent with severe and worsening dementia, and the major political media outlets are committing journalistic malpractice by refusing to admit it. But at least they’re getting closer to admitting it by the day.
