Trump has inspired widespread speculation about his cognitive decline at least 4 times

Source: Raw Story

Donald Trump has spent more than 20 percent of his presidency at his golf resorts, and this past weekend was no exception. After three days of hitting balls around at his club in Bedminster, New Jersey, the president finally decided to return to Washington, D.C. on Monday. Footage of Trump’s arrival shows him exiting Air Force One, then descending the stairs to the tarmac, where a limousine festooned with American flag awaits. But instead of climbing inside, Trump wanders off in a different direction, taking several steps off course before a Secret Service agent can corral him. It’s an odd moment, in which Trump briefly appears befuddled and out of sorts.

3. He didn’t realize Rudy Giuliani was sitting directly in front of him.

At a press event highlighting Trump’s executive orders on cyber security, the president was seated directly across from former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani. After a brief speech, Trump introduced Giuliani—who again, was sitting right in front of him—and began searching confusedly around the room. “Where’s Rudy?” you can hear Trump asking in the footage, as Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly directs his attention in the right direction.

to take my oversized driver and hit some balls around. They would be attached to tRump, Bannnon, Kushner, the tRump "boys" Beavis and Butthead, Priebus, McConnell, Ryan, McCain and several others. This disgraceful fiasco can be layed at the feet of the gop "leadership" who aided and abetted this troop of despicable, unqualified clowns take over the WH. This country will take YEARS to recover from this disgraceful display of insanity.

I can imagine this is happening continually, all day every day. I wouldn't be surprised if he has to be escorted around the WH to where he is supposed to go (whenever he is actually there and not wandering around a golf course) because there are so many rooms.

There are a few reasons why General McMaster encourages him to play lots of golf and watch television.

Why isn't the pillsbury doughboy Karl Rove talking about this on Fox?
