Flashback -Trump’s Frontotemporal Dementia and the 2020 State of the Union Address Part 1
"Senator John Fetterman just gave the PERFECT answer to the House speaker drama: “Replacing one dick with a different kind of dick isn’t going to change anything in the House. We’re one DNA test from the Jerry Springer show.”"
Australia pushed back, therefor was almost dumped.

Those of us who have been watching Trump’s steady mental and physical decline over the years made a few predictions about the types of things we would see at the State of the Union address this year based on current observations of his public appearances.
In a tweet thread I suggested we will hear his voice sound as if he were sedated, he would choke up on words, exhibit facial dystonia, twist around while gripping the podium, be unable to pronounce a word and try to cover for it, and either already be seated at the podium or would have “human canes” who would do a handshake gauntlet to keep him focused and moving to the destination.
Off the top of my head based on presentations we've seen, he's going to sound sedated, then start to choke up on words, scrunch up his face and twist around and try to play if off like he's changing topics / being informal, /1
as time goes on his volume is going to increase to the point of yelling, he will not be able to stay on topic, and his posture and balance will deteriorate. If he's really having problems walking that day he will already be behind the podium before the cameras go on or somehow /2
there will be a sycophantic row of "human canes" who appear to be shaking his hand, but really they are providing balance, locomotion, and direction. /3
Why would I suggest such a thing? Because Trump exhibits nearly all the symptoms of frontotemporal dementia with progressive supranuclear palsy, and memory, orientation, balance, and gait are negatively affected.
People who have worked closely with Trump have said he doesn’t recognize people and that he doesn’t know where he is or what day or year it is.

“We talk about mental deterioration…I have seen him completely not know where he was what time of day it was in the middle of a sentence. I’ve seen him forget who he’s talking to — somebody familiar — I mean these are indications that there is something neurological going on.”
When left to his own devices, he can aimlessly wander, as seen here in Poland in 2016:

That was in 2016, where he still could walk in a relatively straight line. Maintaining balance while walking and standing has steadily decreased since then. In July of 2019 he couldn’t walk in a straight line unassisted:
