Trump’s Health Thread

That is the MoCa. If you got 30 out of 30 then good for you !

I have taken that exam . There is one task where you redraw and duplicate a 3D object. My spatial relations are so bad so I scored 29 out of 30

There is no doubt in my mind that Trump scored less than 20

I have looked up the test online and taken it a couple of times out of curiosity. I have trouble with recalling the five random words after coming back to it. I can usually get like 3 of them.

Memorization was never by strong point either. I hated it and it was really hard for me.
 
I've seen a ton of pretty convincing arguments regarding Trump's cognitive decline, the general gist being that he's displaying many symptoms of frontotemporal dementia and is pretty far along in the process. Not sure if it's based in reality or if I'm just wish casting but one dementia expert believes he'll be out of office in less than 5 months.

Symptoms he's displayed:

  • Front lean when speaking
  • Body stops clearing saliva automatically, notice his constant slurping in his interviews. He's having to consciously do it now.
  • Slurred words/convoluted speech.
  • Genuine belief that things that did not happen did in fact happen. This is a distinguishing factor between FTD and Alzheimer's. With Alzheimer's people simply forget, with FTD people fill in holes with false memories.
  • Constant bruising on hand, location of IV for his treatment.
  • Motor issues
  • Progressive disinhibition (things like "quiet piggie")
  • Falling asleep during the day, symptom of FTD and a side effect of the FTD medication.
