1 Trump made a dementia confession at his rally when he projected "that’s what happens when you can’t get the words out, you get angry...Might happen to me someday." It was Trumpian of course w/ "might & someday" as qualifiers to acknowledge & downplay undeniable symptoms.

2 Trump& #39;s word finding issues are something patients vocalize frustration about for themselves. I& #39;ve heard this firsthand. It fits w/ the Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) version of Frontotemporal Dementia- (IMO). He of course needs a full exam at a place like the Mayo Clinic

3 It’s highly likely Trump has received a softened dementia prognosis. He& #39;s very sensitive. The D word probably wasn& #39;t used. Since the time span is long, patients are encouraged to stay active. PET & MRI imaging over time confirms dementia. It delays the label he so deeply fears

4 With Trump, it translates to extreme denial & hiding of his many dementia symptoms. He& #39;s also lost the ability to accurately view himself even if he was honest.
"That’s what happens when you can’t get the words out, you get angry- Might happen to me someday"
