Like anyone else, politicians do get old, and when they do, their age frequently becomes obvious in public.
One example is House minority leader Nancy Pelosi, who has repeatedly slurred her speech and spoken gibberish, both of which point to declining mental capabilities.
Politicians also get life-threatening illnesses, such as cancer. Whether or not you like John McCain, his brain cancer was the likely culprit for his inability to speak clearly during his questioning of James Comey last month, something most people can look upon with compassion.
Then there are politicians who try to hide that there are any health problems, such as Hillary Clinton, who has had massive coughing attacks in public, was seen with an odd red spot on her tongue, required a stool to lean on during her presidential campaign debate with Trump, has had apparent seizures during press gaggles that she attempted to laugh off, struggled to climb stairs, and has collapsed repeatedly in public. She's never been straight with the public about what her health concerns may be, but it's pretty obvious something is not working.
Do we ever see any evidence of failing faculties like that with Donald Trump? His own physician gave him a clean bill of health, and all we have seen is an "on" political leader, always crisply dressed and in full command of his faculties. That he sometimes says things that aren't tactful is part of his extraverted personality. He's not a sneaky, passive-aggressive type. What it isn't is evidence of mental instability.
If psychiatrists want to ruin their professional reputations by saying Trump is mad, and Michael Wolff wants to make up stuff to sell books, fine. We will believe that Trump is crazy when we see it.

People with dementia write their own books and do not need to conspire with CNN to CHEAT at debates.
“I have seen plenty of Nancy Pelosi with dementia”
As someone once remarked: “ she’s not much use to anyone but she’s kinda like a Slinky toy when you push her down the stairs!”
Did you read my post?
Wikipedia:
Political Abuse of Psychiatry In The Soviet Union
There was systematic political abuse of psychiatry in the Soviet Union,[1] based on the interpretation of political opposition or dissent as a psychiatric problem.
During the leadership of General Secretary Leonid Brezhnev, psychiatry was used to disable and remove from society political opponents ("dissidents") who openly expressed beliefs that contradicted the official dogma.
An excellent article to read about President Trump
What I would like to know when are us Trump supporters going to start protesting these media outlets by the tens of thousands and say enough is enough?
He’s mad I tell ya..stark raving mad.
Morning Joe and Racheal Man of a cow told me so.
Goldwater was a little before my time, but the left said "In your guts you know he's nuts".
By the time Eisenhower left office, the MSM had people convinced he was an amiable dunce with a bit of dementia. Only in retrospect does he get any respect at all in the MSM.
Even the Arkansans finally figured her out!
This is why the cruel ba$tards keep repeating this lie. “Fred Trump suffered from Alzheimer’s disease for six years”
The MSM “maniacs” are trying to work on President Trump’s mind by trying to make him doubt himself. That’s the purpose of the lie!!!!!!
Here’s an example of RATs in Congress for ya. Start examining them for starters, e.g., Piglosi, Waters, et al.

So he’s been a successful businessman for all these years and the day he becomes president, he develops dementia. Must be something in the vents of the White House.
I think there is something in the code of standards from the APA that does say just that.
