Yesterday I wrote about how a brain specialist saw signs the Trump was showing signs of dementia.
Prior to this new and important expert perspective, I and many other mental professionals who are in the duty to warn movement have expressed the opinion that a sign that his psychological defenses were deteriorating would be increasing manifestations of paranoia and delusions.
When it come to evaluating fitness to serve, no matter the cause or combination of causes, not being able to tell reality from unreality is the very definition of a serious mental disorder.
You don’t even need a psychiatric dictionary to understand how serious this is. Webster’s will do:
Delusions: characterized by or holding idiosyncratic beliefs or impressions that are contradicted by reality or rational argument, typically as a symptom of mental disorder: hospitalization for schizophrenia and delusional paranoia | he was diagnosed with a delusional disorder.
