    problem is you could never prove beyond all reasonable doubt he didn’t believe it himself

    Sounds like a candidate for a proper psych evaluation, then.

      His niece, Mary Trump, knows him well and is a licensed clinical psychologist. She’s spoken and written extensively on his mental disorders (normally a psychologist won’t do that publicly, but she’s said he’s such a danger to the nation, she feels she has no choice).

      She’s well worth reading and listening to.

        And she’s not the only person in his family tree that is speaking out against the orange menace.

      He has the best brain. The greatest brain. One time, for some unknown reason, he took a cognitive test meant for dementia patients. He supposedly passed but he claimed it was hard for him. Such a stable genius.

          The amazing thing about that idiocy mostly flew under the radar at the time:

          According to neurologists, in the test he was bragging about (aside from being extremely easy because it’s meant to screen for dementia), those would not have been the words.

          The point of the 5 words portion is that the words are never related, because that would defeat the purpose of the memory test. They’re always carefully selected unrelated words, like daisy clock giraffe piano door.

          He very obviously did not remember the words and was just naming things he could literally see at the time.

            Exactly.
