President Donald Trump has continued to demonstrate signs of worsening mental "decline," according to one professional psychologist, who detailed the latest "red flags" in a new video.

Dr. John Paul Garrison is a licensed forensic and clinical psychologist who specializes in body language. He is also a content creator who has released numerous videos giving his professional insight into the tells for cognitive decline that he has seen Trump exhibiting during public appearances or addresses.

In his latest video, he dug into two recent appearances by Trump, one at an event in Las Vegas and another in the Oval Office, which he said were full of further signs of his worsening condition.

"Over the past several months, I've been frequently analyzing President Trump's behavior because it has gotten more erratic," Garrison explained. "It's gotten more unusual, and we're seeing more neurological hiccups. As I've mentioned for months now, it appears that there are neurological changes from President Trump. Whether it's post-stroke or something else, we have seen distinct changes. The reason this matters so much, and the reason that I'm covering it so much, is that I believe we are seeing this play out on the world stage. I think it is affecting his judgment. I think that it is affecting his ability to make decisions, and it certainly is affecting his behavior, and I'm going to show you in what ways that it affects his behavior."

I guess "YouTuber uploads new video" isn't as attention grabbing but it feels more accurate. The guy's got a channel where he speculates on current events in politics and noteworthy criminal cases. He'll release another video about the signs of Trump's mental decline next week too, because he does one every week.

    It's very funny to see Senators and Congressmen dropping like mayflies while the news fixates on a couple of guys who will likely live into the triple digits.

    I don’t think Trump has 20 years, but he’ll probably live to forget to swallow like modern American Alzheimer’s patients are forced to do these days.

    Alzheimer's care has come a long way. And presidents get access to the best health care in the world. Or, at least, they have historically. Idk wtf Trump has done to Walter Reed over the last ten years

    We just watched a relative with plenty of money starve to death (actually it might have been dehydration that officially did it) because assisted suicide isn’t legal in our area, at least not for Alzheimer’s. It was early onset, and relatively fast progression, but hospice only drugged her so it hopefully wasn’t as uncomfortable.

    They won't. Americans are idiots.

    They generally only protest when social media tells them to. And social media only tells them to protest when the President is someone the owners of social media don't like. They all like to cosplay as rebels, but really they're the most complacent people in the world.

    People in general are allowing they're quality of life to be smudged, regardless of if they're American. There's a plastic island bigger than Texas in the Pacific, right? We're literally killing our environment because plastic is easier to ship groceries in than glass (etc)

    You are doing these things. I do what I can to reduce carbon emissions and reduce waste. You could too, but you're told that it's fine for you to do nothing other than sit around complaining about other people on social media.

    Who says I'm not doing things to address it, even if it won't amount to anything?

    I'm responding to a thread that makes this seem like it's a deeply American problem. It's obvious that this isn't the only country that won't successfully push back against a decline. Our species needs to be able to organize better.

    Who the fuck cares? Stop wasting your time with meaningless nonsense.

    Play the game of politics and learn how to beat him, or stfu. This is just big-D Democrat nonsense. The world is not an ideal fairy tale, this does not matter one iota unless his base cares, which they very obviously don't.

    This dude's not a politician. He's presenting is professional opinions publicly about the leader of the US. Everyone should care about that. I for one love seeing posts like this. That he's doing is at some degree "playing the game of politics" because this person has specific skills, not as a politician, but he's using them to publicize a politicians state of being. You sound like you have a better road map for what this person should be doing instead. Care to elaborate on that?

    No he's not, because actual medical professionals don't diagnose people at a distance.

    The fact that he's claiming to while claiming he's a professional tells you that at least one of those two statements is false.

    As an outside observer, it looks like either Obama could have, it looks like Sanders could have, it looks like Budigeg could, it looks like Mamdani could.

    Run a real candidate against him with a coherent political view that's not just a bunch of big D Democrat nonsense.

    Just to take two options off the list: under the current state of the constitution, Obama can't run for a third term, and Mamdani is not eligible for the presidency (being foreign-born).

    There's no need for armchair theorizing when we have a real mechanic system for making the best odds: it's called a primary and the DNC hasn't seen it necessary to use one in 20 years

    agree! the last candidate they embraced was Obama. since then, the playbook has been "do something that the people are familiar with and lets call it a day" like a shitty disney live action reboot

    I was always registered 'no party' but I registered Democrat just so I could vote against her in the primary. I am once again registered 'no party'. I did hold my nose and vote for her when she ran against Trump.

    So he's not a neurologist and not qualified to talk about dementia, or he's just stated what is pretty fucking obvious.
