Showing Original Post only (View all)Officials Worry Trump Has ADHD Or Dementia: Wolff [View all]
TRUMP MIGHT HAVE DEMENTIA, ADHD OR LEARNING DISABILITIES, 'FIRE AND FURY' AUTHOR MICHAEL WOLFF SAYSBY JASON SILVERSTEIN ON 1/7/18 AT 8:40 AM
Senior Washington officials worry that President Donald Trump might be suffering from learning disabilities or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, or maybe even dementia, Fire and Fury author Michael Wolff said Sunday.
He's just a rich wastrel. He was bad at school. They don't know if it is because he had learning disabilities, Wolff told the Mail on Sunday. They discuss it at the White House: his apparent inability to read one page or one paragraph. He can't even follow a PowerPoint. They wonder where that is from. ADHD? A learning disability?
Wolff said some White House insiders speculate that Trump, 71, is in the early stages of dementia, and they think the commander-in-chief couldnt read or is semi-literate.
Whether it's lack of sleep, the compounded effects of age or there's actually some impairment and that's a possibility everybody around him discusses that, he said.

The chorus reaches a crescendo, & his defensive claim of "very stable genius" is a dementia symptom.
