Donald Trump has always gone his own way. However, no one can argue otherwise that his erratic behavior has increased, not least on social media. Now, a top psychologist has given a grim warning about the president – and it points toward a disorder that is worsened by dementia.
Donald Trump’s mental health has been a big talking point in recent months, not least after the president underwent an MRI at Walter Reed Medical Center in October.
White House doctor Sean Barbabella released a memo stating that the president underwent “advanced imaging, laboratory testing, and preventive health assessments. Later, Trump confirmed to reporters aboard Air Force One, en route to Japan, that he had an MRI.
“We had an MRI, MRI and the machine, you know, the whole thing, and it was perfect. Nobody has ever given you reports like I gave you, and if I didn’t think it was going to be good, either I would let you know negatively, I wouldn’t run, I’d do something. But the doctors said some of the best reports for the age, some of the best reports they’ve ever seen,” he said.
Several doctors have claimed that Trump is withholding information about why he went through the MRI scan and that he ‘didn’t know’ what body part was scanned. Now, another expert in the field has spoken out about Donald Trump’s health, and it’s a concerning read.
Top psychologist says Donald Trump has ‘disorder’ which is worsened by dementia
Speaking on The Daily Beast Podcast, top psychologist, Dr. John Gartner, a therapist, activist, author, and former professor at Johns Hopkins, claimed Trump’s increasingly erratic behavior most likely points toward a personality disorder, which is being rapidly worsened by dementia.
“When people develop dementia, they become the worst versions of themselves,” Gartner said on The Daily Beast Podcast.
Previously, the professor had stated that the 79-year-old president’s verbal gaffes, confusion daily, and frequent memory lapses were “clinical signs of dementia.” Gartner claims it has worsened as he believes Trump has underlying “malignant narcissism.”
“Whatever personality issues or problems [people with dementia] have begin to deteriorate and they become even more crude, disorganized, aggressive, confused versions of that personality disorder,” Gartner said.
Difficulties raising his hand to salute
He also brought up the example of Trump having “signs of psychomotor deterioration.” It is from Veterans Day, when Gartner stated that Donald Trump had difficulty saluting.
“You do see he’s having difficulty raising his hand to salute,” Gartner concluded on The Daily Beast Podcast. “And part of dementia and or stroke, because it really could be either or both of those, because it appears like it is on the right side of his body that he had the droop with the face. It’s also on the right side of his body that he has the wide-based gait, where he swings his leg in kind of a semicircle. These are signs.”
