7. Trump's dementia is getting more and more obvious.
Mon Mar 16, 2026, 11:53 AM
Yesterday

He doesn't have the ability to think things through any more; his words and actions are almost all done on the spur of the moment.
He lets other people play him; guiding what's left of his thought processes in the direction they want. Unfortunately, his advisors have agenda's that run counter to what the people want and the nation needs.
So, his instant gratification of a big win in Iran isn't going to happen, and the US allies he's been trashing for over a year aren't anxious to bail him out of this deep hole he dug for us there.

He's too far gone to realize that his fantasy of being the greatest leader of all time, and king of the world aren't going to happen. Unfortunately, as long as the republican Congress gives him free reign, no one's going to stop him from trying.
Eventually he'll stop himself.
