Donald Trumpâs latest public meltdown may be one of his most confusing yet â and thatâs saying something. Speaking at the McDonaldâs Impact Summit, the 79-year-old ex-president delivered a rambling, incoherent monologue that left attendees staring at the stage in open disbelief.
Trump began with a gravelly voice â which he claimed came from âscreaming at peopleâ â and launched into a strange boast about the stock market and 401(k)s. But things spiraled quickly.
âA great stock market is great for everybody including 401(k)s⊠the highest number theyâve ever been two days ago,â he croaked. Then came the word salad.
âWeâre gonna make the American Dream a word, two words that you didnât have. You didnât have those two words,â Trump rambled. âRemember when Biden said âitâs all about three words, the American Dream.â You donât want to get in that situation⊠Itâs all about three words: American Dream.â
To this moment, no one has deciphered what point he was trying to make â or whether even he knew.
The audience of McDonaldâs owners, operators, and suppliers certainly didnât. The only thing clear was that the man holding the nuclear codes last year can no longer hold a coherent idea in his own head.
Trumpâs niece, Mary Trump â a clinical psychologist â has repeatedly warned that her uncle increasingly resembles her grandfather Fred Trump Sr., who suffered from Alzheimerâs and often looked like a âdeer in the headlights.â Watching Donald now, itâs hard to deny the similarities.
Then came the bathroom rant. Yes, again.
At the same event, Trump abruptly veered into a tirade about bathrooms, water pressure, and â somehow â heaven.
âYou know we got rid of the drip, drip water⊠States with tremendous water⊠It comes down from heaven, right?â Trump rambled, insisting that washing your hands â or in his personal example, washing his hair â was nearly impossible because of ârestrictors.â
Then came the line that stunned the room:
âI wonât mention the third item in the bathroom cause I always get criticized⊠If you donât know what weâre talking about, then you shouldnât own a McDonaldâs franchise.â
Sorry, Donald â if understanding your private bathroom obsessions is a requirement for owning a franchise, the entire global restaurant industry is doomed.
Based on Trumpâs past rants about toilets needing to be flushed â10 or 15 times,â the âthird itemâ he refuses to name is presumably⊠well, a toilet. But given his history, it may say more about his digestive system than federal water regulations.
He is now so cognitively clouded that he canât even complain coherently about the topics he obsesses over most.
A dangerous decline
We have now reached the point where nearly every public appearance from Trump ends with him:
-
losing his train of thought
-
inventing new words
-
confusing basic concepts
-
or drifting into surreal bathroom monologues
This is not normal behavior for anyone â much less the man who recently sat in the Oval Office and still commands a major political movement.
Allowing Trump to remain in power, or anywhere near it, as his cognitive decline unfolds in real time is governmental negligence of the highest order. At this point, the country doesnât need another rally from him â it needs a full neurological evaluation.
Congress should act before the situation becomes an even bigger national security threat.
