Moments After Questioning Trump's Mental Health, Pelosi Has Senior Moment(s)
grabien.com ^ | Jun 9, 2017 | Staff

Pelosi's aide came to her assistance, passing her a note alerting her to the slip-up she's made many times before

Shortly after calling into question President Trump's mental health on MSNBC's 'Morning Joe,' House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi's own mental health came under scrutiny, as the 77-year-old California congresswoman referred to President Trump as "President Bush" and forgot what day of the week it is.

A reporter quickly helped her correct the gaffe, interjecting "Trump," but Pelosi appeared oblivious she slipped up.

An aide then emerged from the sidelines, passing Pelosi a note, notifying her she got the two presidents mixed up again.

Pelosi's confusion came just two hours after suggesting Trump was losing his mind. "I am concerned," she said on MSNBC, about Trump's "fitness for office."

"I think his family should be concerned about his health," Pelosi said. "The fact is that this is hopefully not reparable -- he’s the president of the United States."

"You mean you hope it is reparable?" Joe Scarborough asked, apparently confused.

"Yeah, yeah," she replied.

Asked if she had advise for Trump, she said, "go to sleep, get some sleep. Bring yourself to a place where your synapses are working."

During her weekly press conference, Pelosi not only became confused over who is president, but also what day of the week it is.

"I spoke to the speaker a week and a couple days ago -- last Friday," she said. "What is today? Friday again?"

My mom has it and it is really sad. Most of the times she has no idea who I am.

She needs the hook to pull her off stage - but imagine being the staffer or colleague to tell her this. It would be as bad as telling Hillary that people hate her.

Honestly, we need a mandatory retirement age for ALL of our politicians.

I fear it as well, since my grandfather had it. I am 62 and try to keep my mind working well. My body, not so much..............

My SIL took me to the gym one day as a guest, and I signed up right there. Two years ago now, and I'm glad of it.

Of course, they have CNN on the flat screens in there, that can't be good for the brain, but at least I don't have to look.

(But, actually, I am replying to high-five your tagline!)

My grandmother had a form of dementia, and now my aunt is losing her memories to the point she doesn’t recognize her kids and grandkids at times.

It is tough to go through. If Pelosi wasn’t such a nasty, evil woman, I would have more sympathy for her.

It is time for Pelosi to withdraw.


No, no keep her exactly where she is. Her idiotic, disjointed and meaningless rants are a bonus for us. Let her keep quoting “Yogi Bear” and confusing President Trump with President Bush.

She’ll continue to mentally deteriorate. Let that Botoxed old bag remain the face of the Rat Party.

Pelosi is an evil, horrible woman and I have ZERO sympathy for her no matter what happens to her.

“It is time for Pelosi to withdraw. Her brain is not sharp enough for her job. She commits major verbal blundrs and would do so in her writing if staff did not correct before release.
She seems more and more unaware of where she is and what is going on around her.”

But NONE OF THEM from either party will go. It’s not about you and me, it never has been. It’s about them and only them. If there ever was a group of people totally self-absorbed, it’s politicians. I mean look at that old turd from Mississippi, Thad Cochran, they “wheel him out” and tell him what to do, then “wheel him back.”

“That’s how i see most career politicians. and when they turn 77 it gets worse.”

Careful, I will be 77 in August! Now, can anyone tell me where I left the car keys? Seriously though, at this age, there is a wide range of mental capacity, it’s just mind boggling though that most of the senility is vested in the Congress.

“My mom passed away at age 91-and was way better at communicating and remembering than Nancy is, now.”

Mine went at 92, just six months after getting a four year renewal of her CA driver’s license. She was ill for less than a week, and she had a first-rate memory. We are not all created equal, despite what the Constitution says.

"ANSWERED PRAYER. GOD keeps His Promises..."

...... Absolutely ... It appears something amazing is happening! I keep thinking of the prophet Moses .... Who did not speak well, he spoke very slow and probably stuttered (Exodus 4:10) but yet he was chosen by God to lead the Israelites out of the land of Egypt and out of the House of Bondage.

..... Every time I think of this ..... it makes me smile.
