1 It would not be a surprise if Trump is being persuaded to get medical attention, get a neurological exam or even resign for health reasons & is totally rejecting it. He doesn’t have the ability to judge his own condition. Quite the opposite- he’s living a delusion of grandeur.
2 There is the issue of future NY St charges Trump would not have pardon protection from. The plan may be to let him become so impaired while he’s protected in the WH, that when he’s forced to resign, he’ll be too sickly for NY to indict. Barr/Kush would cook up a plot like this.
3 Mike & Karen Pence looked worried as they left for Poland. Pence’s line a/b Trump being “fully engaged” was a tell. Why say it? Pence is already in deep for letting Trump’s impairment go this far. Pardoning him for Fed crimes will only make it worse.
4 It’s dawning on Pence that he will have to make some gigantic decisions- perhaps under extreme pressure. Karen Pence's face said it all as they left for Poland. Pence knows Trump is cratering, despite the fawning. As always @awilix2612 sums it up crisply
5 Dementia is the perfect machine to remove Trump from office. It doesn’t stop. It can’t be turned off. It grinds away daily, turning Trump in to something different. It wins any argument to remove him bc it’s keeps altering him. He will sink to whatever level anyone requires.
6 To put it another way, or to music, once again the Spiral Starecase song- altered version:
"Trump’s looking worse today than yesterday
But not as bad as tomorrow….."
"Trump’s looking worse today than yesterday
But not as bad as tomorrow….."
7 We in the public are observers. We marvel at the bizarre symptoms. It’s no surprise really. Trump is right on schedule. Underlying those symptoms is a brain that’s steadily shrinking. As a result we see a freak show w/ him as the steadily worsening star.
8 For a deep dive to Trump’s multi-year dementia slide here’s 17 layers of threads with pictures, commentary and videos.
9 Trump is a figurehead who controls very little now. He makes appearances that are train wrecks. His aides are on a vandalism tear as their days are numbered. They are making the classic mistake of trying to salvage him today vs realizing how bad he’ll be in 30, 60 or 90 days.
10 Hurricane Dorian is close to the eastern seaboard. It requires a president speak multiple times. It’s the perfect storm for Trump. He looks horrible. He sounds horrible. This next leg down while trying to maintain a make believe president act is going to go very badly for him.
