He also absolutely seems like the type to leave a doctor's appointment about how his diet is killing him and get McDonald's on the way home.
Can you imagine being Trump's doctor? He's gotta be a fucking awful patient. Firing people who tell him things he doesn't want to hear is his favorite past time.
I honestly think he was diagnosed with dementia all the way back around the "man woman person camera tv" incident.
When someone has a neuropsych eval, it's never just ONE test, it's a set of several. Another very common one is the clock drawing test, which can be highly indicative of alzheimers or other forms of dementia.
The simple fact that he wasn't also crowing about drawing the best clock anyone ever saw makes me think that one did not go well.
I feel like millionaire might be too broad a term here but I can't really think of a better phrasing. There is a pretty big difference between an accomplished neurosurgeon or something retiring at 65 with a few million and some asshat CEO retiring at 40 with 500+ million.
Honestly I think they're trying to drag it out until Trump dies (or at least reaches the drooling vegetable stage of dementia). My guess is he's in there to such an extent that they can't even really remove him and have what's left make sense, so they slow walk it until he dies and then release it. This, in turn, generates a massive enough scandal that they can probably redact whoever the fuck else they want without many people even noticing, but minimal actual consequences, as at the end of the day, everything is now directed at a dead man.
People who bought the line of bullshit about Republicans being financially responsible at some point in the 80s, decided that was enough engagement for one lifetime, and proceeded to turn their brains off and have exercised precisely 0 critical thinking about anything even remotely political ever since.
I mean it's pretty classic narcissist shit. The husband who punches his wife in the face and sends roses the next day. The deadbeat dad who drops off an expensive birthday gift 3 weeks late after blowing off said birthday. They don't like when people are angry but lack the empathy and emotional maturity to do any actual introspection or attempts at a proper resolution, so they just throw money or something shiny at the problem and pat themselves on the back for their 'compassion'.
Yeah, sandwiches at a decent Mexican restaurant are a whole nother level. Cemitas and tortas have basically ruined all other sandwiches for me at this point.
