One thing to recognize about delusional mentally ill people, with or without dementia,

[mulsh]

8. one thing I eventually recognized with my severly schizophrenic younger brother was that the things

he's say & do would sound and appear reasonable up to a point. After that point, which wasn't always readily obvious things got batshit crazy.

I realized this was way so many of our friends and family had a hard time believing he was very sick. That his delusions were real to him didn't make them any more real to the rest of us. He even recognized that in his more lucid phases.

We've got a person in the oval office who is dangerously mentally unfit for any government office. Yesterday's performance kept reminding of my younger brother when he was about to go into a deep paranoid hallucinatory phase.
