    He doesn’t have a problem with mental acuity…

    … he was always an idiot.

    He didn’t change, he’s always been like this

      No, there has definitely been a drop in his coherence.

      He used to be an idiot you could understand, now he’s just spewing words together than sound like partial thoughts

        I don’t know why people like OP post “He’s always been (stupid/senile/deranged/whatever)!” Does it make them feel smart to say,“I’ve always known better and you’re an idiot if you think this is new!”

        Trump is clearly past some kind of tipping point here. He’s gone downhill so far and fast that, were he a relative, we would have been plotting elder care a year or two back, no longer fit to live alone and keep house.
