It does not matter, Trump is a convicted felon, fraudster, liar and sexual predator. He is in no way qualified for high office.

For many jobs and functions you need to pass a medical and often a psychological test. For president of the USA.. you only need 270 votes. Not even the majority of the peoples votes.

He is suffering from declining cognition, but in addition to that he's also suffering from being a narcissistic sociopath. 

 

In order to be classified as a narcopath, malignant narcissist, or narcissistic sociopath, a person has to display several traits of both NPD and ASPD. Some of these signs include delusions, an obsession with power and control, taking advantage of others, and no moral boundaries.

 

Here are 10 signs of a narcissistic sociopath:

 

1. They Live In a Deluded Reality

Narcissistic sociopaths don’t see the world in the same way other people do. In their distorted version of reality, they are entitled to whatever they want, regardless of what it takes to get it or who is hurt in the process. They will justify their actions, even ones that are inexcusable, and show no remorse. A sociopath’s narcissism may also lead them to develop delusions of grandeur about being important, special, or exceptional in some way. Or, they can experience paranoid delusions that others are out to get them.

 

2. They Are Obsessed With Power & Control

People with NPD and ADP are power-hungry. Sociopathic narcissists put a lot of time and effort into acquiring positions that give them power or control over people, bowling over anyone who gets in their way. Once they obtain control, they may demand to be addressed in a certain way or make others follow rules that don’t make sense. This obsession also tends to show up as a refusal to acknowledge any other authority, including rules, laws, policies, or requests made of them by others.

 

3. They Take Advantage of & Use Other People

Narcissistic sociopaths have a habit of using, exploiting, and taking advantage of others. This tendency shows up in all of their relationships, including romantic, platonic, or familial relationships they’ve been able to maintain. They seek out codependent, nurturing individuals who are more easily manipulated and controlled through guilt, shame, or fear, and will hold onto these relationships for as long as the person remains useful.

 

4. They Have No Moral Boundaries

There are no lines a narcissistic sociopath won’t cross to get what they want. Their moral compass is non-existent, leaving them without the sense of “right and wrong” that most people have. After doing something harmful, illegal, or sadistic, they won’t feel remorse, regret, or guilt. In fact, they may even feel a sense of satisfaction knowing they were able to deceive, emotionally manipulate, or hurt someone.

 

5. They Have a Limited Range of Emotions

Narcissistic sociopaths don’t experience feelings of love and affection, or more vulnerable emotions like guilt, shame, or sadness. The only strong emotion they seem to be able to access is anger. This can show up as outrage or narcissistic rage when they’re slighted, offended, or not granted something they feel they deserve.4 This stunted emotional range also keeps them from being able to experience empathy, sometimes leading them to engage in destructive behaviors that grant them some form of feeling.

 

6. They Have a Huge Discard Pile

Narcissistic sociopaths are known to discard people and things that are no longer useful to them. Over time, their narcissistic discard pile stacks up and may include former friends, lovers, colleagues, and mentors. Their discard pile may also include expensive material things they got bored or tired of, as well as roles or activities that served a purpose at one time but are no longer useful to them.

 

7. They Become Hostile When Threatened

Narcissistic sociopaths are most dangerous when they feel threatened. Because of their natural tendency to be paranoid, less trusting, and more easily offended, threats can be a routine occurrence for them. When they feel threatened, the narcopath will often become hostile and aggressive, lashing out and becoming abusive toward others.

 

8. They Feed Off of Negative Energy

A narcissistic sociopath feeds off of negative emotions and energy. There is something about drama, others’ fear or pain, or the chaos of disaster that seems to excite them or give them energy. This kind of parasitic attraction to negativity is a telltale sign of a sick person, including a person who may have traits of NPD and ASPD. This behavior is also what makes sociopathic narcissists sadistic and dangerous, causing them to enjoy the pain and suffering of others. 

 

9. They Get Bored Easily

A narcissistic sociopath is constantly seeking sensations and cheap thrills because nothing can hold their interest and attention for long. They become easily bored with people, things, and activities, and will abandon them once they are no longer entertained. This boredom can also turn into a restlessness that causes them to find destructive outlets. For this reason, people with these traits tend to be impulsive and aggressive, or engaged in crime, violence, or drug use.

 

10. They Are Empty Inside

A narcissistic sociopath may have worked hard to craft a powerful, important image, but this is a front. Lacking the ability to feel a full range of emotions makes them hollow and empty on the inside, keeping them from really experiencing things, expressing themselves, or connecting with others. This internal emptiness is what they’re trying to hide from others with their narcissism, and also what they’re seeking to escape within themselves by using maintaining a level of entertainment, power, or destruction.

 

His symptons are overwhelming. Dementia can also be hereditary. His father Fred Trump Sr. suffered from dementia too.

From the link I supplied in another post:

Dr. Gartner told DeVega that Joe Biden’s occasional gaffes “are well within the normal limits of aging.” Trump, however, appears to be showing gross signs of dementia. This is what Dr. Gartner told DeVega, verbatim:

Assuming no and no do you think demonizing a minority and race baiting is acceptable in a president?

Of course not, but when people have dementia they often say things that are not acceptable.

Far less coherent than in the past, very hard for him to continue a sentence for more than 15 seconds, alot of rambling, complaining, playing the victim card, and juvenile name calling as usual. Even most of the CEO's he met with a month ago were shocked at how lacking his message was.

 

 

Also notice the use of repetitions, of the main "theme/slogan" (short sentence of a few words, such as "she's a liar") each repetition quipped with a different tag line, "let me tell you," or "people keep saying" or "that's what I heard"... 

 

So "She's a liar" becomes : "She's a liar, let me tell you...People keep saying she's a liar. Yes, she's a liar, that's what I heard." At least three repetitions, not counting later encores,  which is a speech pattern often found in old folks becoming senile, ie the struggle to get hold of one idea before it slips away.

Trump does struggle to find the right words, and pronounce them correctly. He's got the mood swings.

 

 

Or in the case of  "the oranges of the investigation" Trump does find the right word, but struggles to pronounce it correctly ("oranges" was said 3 times, at one point one heard "oringes"  pronounced as in "syringes.")

The other not small "part of the problem" is the media treating Trump's insanity as par for the common discourse. I believe the trend word du jour is "sane-washing."

 

 

Surely not

You like the other made my point.

If talking stupid, bragging, not being Presidential which I agree he should but never will is what makes you vote for Harris as a American it is your right. Your forgot one " he will make Mexico pay for the wall "

I guess if you got close to full blow dementia, fall down, it is ok for your wife, family, entire party to parade the person in front of the world 

Embrasses themselves the nation is Presidential.

Issues Ive not heard a thing from Harris! 

If it sounds like Im a Trump supporter no more than how you sound you would support a candidate that doesnt have a clue but I guess these are the choices we are presented with.

Is that a plan, or a 'concept of a plan?

 

Also, what does it mean? Does it mean the high unemployment and the Recession he left behind?

 

Your 'pets' comment suggest you're joking, as few people are genuinely so imbecilic to believe that silly fantasy, but then again, if you are a maga, all bets are off. There is woefully clueless, gullible and naive, and then there is maga, which is a turbocharged version of the former.

 

I appreciate that in today's economy and world one must have talent or marketable skills to benefit. Darwin has taken over, and natural selection and survival of the fittest is leaving magas behind. For others, things have never been better, and under President Harris it will be onward and upward. It's almost unfair how easy it has been to make money since Biden took over. Heck, there's even enough to go around so that magas can still get their Social Security Disability Insurance, which carries most of the inhabitants of Magastan, Socialists that they are at their core.

Every day in the same spot there are negative comments about Trump. It seems so orchestrated I wonder if China or some other entity like USA Democrats are behind this. Very glad the election will be over soon. Neither candidate is ideal but Harris is totally incompetent and has done nothing since she became VP. 

 

Your  statement is just as biased and unfounded as those that claim Trump has dementia.
