People Concerned for Trump’s ‘Mental Decline’ After Baffling Footage Shows Him Forgetting Major Detail

UNITED STATES, JUL 17 – Lev Parnas and experts cite repeated factual errors, unusual behavior, and physical symptoms as signs of cognitive and physical decline in former President Donald Trump, age 79.

  • Former Trump associate Lev Parnas wrote on Substack Thursday that Donald Trump is `unraveling`, pointing to a Truth Social post where he called his own MAGA base a `big mistake`.
  • Despite these assurances, experts like Dr. John Gartner have pointed to changes in Trump’s speech patterns as possible signs of cognitive decline.
  • During a Wednesday gaggle in the Oval Office, Trump said he was surprised Jerome Powell was appointed Fed chair, apparently unaware he nominated him in 2017, and at a Pittsburgh summit he claimed his uncle taught Unabomber Ted Kaczynski.
  • Viral clips have many questioning, and one Twitter user asked, `The man can't even remember appointing the Fed Chair himself—yet we're supposed to trust him with the economy, global diplomacy, and nuclear codes?`
  • Looking ahead, Lev Parnas noted, `Quinnipiac’s bombshell poll shows 63% disapprove of Trump’s Epstein cover-up, and 40% of Republicans reject his stonewalling`, while supporters say his style reflects his entertainer persona, not decline.
