| President Trump shows "more evidence of cognitive decline," psychiatric expert says |
| 2020-01-01 |
| [Salon - The Mental Health 'Go To' folks] President Donald Trump’s speech in Florida over the weekend provides evidence that he is suffering from cognitive decline, according to a psychiatric expert. Seth Davin Norrholm, an associate professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at Emory University School of Medicine, said Monday that the president’s recent rant about Christmas included at least three signs of mental problems. "So if anybody wants to be a nice conservative, talk show host is not a bad living, I would say. But I have to say, he’s a very unique guy and he’s a great man and he’s been a great friend. So thank you to Rush. Thank you," Trump said. "And let me begin by wishing you a beautif ‐ look, do you remember this? Do you remember this? Remember, they were trying to take Christmas out of Christmas. Do you remember? They didn’t want to let you say Merry Christmas," Trump continued. "You’d go around, you’d see department stores that have everything red, snow, beautiful, ribbons, bows. Everything was there. But they wouldn’t say Merry Christmas. They’re all saying Merry Christmas again. You remember?" |

| #21 This ASSOCIATE professor, sounds like he's kinda out of it. Maybe delusional. And he's quite angry at certain people, maybe someone should report him so the police can make sure he doesn't have any guns or means to hurt other people. |

| #20 I thought it was Senate only...? Maybe. But the way they talk, you think it would have to be both. |

| #19 Trial lawyers can always find some psychiatrist who will testify one way or another about the defendant's state of mind. You bring your shrink and I'll bring mine. |

| #12 I just commented to my wife the other day that Trump's speaking has improved notably, and credited him listening to coaching. That must mean I am also showing evidence of cognitive decline. |

| #7 So now they're saying Trump's manner of speaking is a sign of mental illness? Freud had a word for this, right? |
