    I’d argue though that it has accelerated much more rapidly this month or so, but I admit that could be more so just me not picking up on it as much earlier

      For whatever reason, I’d imagine he is under a great deal of stress and anxiety. Maybe it’s the rise of Kamala, or him being shot at; maybe both, and more that we’re not privy to yet.

      As someone that suffers from mental illness myself, I can say with certainty that increases in stress and anxiety will always make mental illness worse. I can only imagine what it does to dementia.

        He seems to have lost weight as well and the timeline for that happening seems short to me. If that is the case and you couple that with an apparent loss of grey matter, he is probably not doing great.

        While I don’t wish harm on anyone, I am absolutely not going to shed a tear if he is in a sharp decline. (The GOP will spit him out the second he fails to be useful, so that will be fun to watch.)

      It all depends on how many of his speeches you watch. People have been doing analysis of his phraseology for several years now, clearly identifying an apparent decline in vocal prowess.
