NY Times finally details Trump's cognitive decline in scathing article
Former President Donald J. Trump vividly recounted how the audience at his climactic debate with Vice President Kamala Harris was on his side. Except that there was no audience. The debate was held in an empty hall. No one “went crazy,” as Mr. Trump put it, because no one was there.
Anyone can misremember, of course. But the debate had been just a week earlier and a fairly memorable moment. And it was hardly the only time Mr. Trump has seemed confused, forgetful, incoherent or disconnected from reality lately. In fact, it happens so often these days that it no longer even generates much attention.
He rambles, he repeats himself, he roams from thought to thought — some of them hard to understand, some of them unfinished, some of them factually fantastical. He voices outlandish claims that seem to be made up out of whole cloth. He digresses into bizarre tangents about golf, about sharks, about his own “beautiful” body. He relishes “a great day in Louisiana” after spending the day in Georgia. He expresses fear that North Korea is “trying to kill me” when he presumably means Iran. As late as last month, Mr. Trump was still speaking as if he were running against President Biden, five weeks after his withdrawal from the race.

posted and only now does the New York Times condescend to formally take note of no. 45’s mental deterioration.
The press/media is doing a GOOD job at covering trump according to her.
but SO many of us have been saying that/wishing that for the past 9 years - I for one am not counting on ANYTHING except the VOTE to rid him from our lives!
Here's hoping/wishing that he goes DOWN IN FLAMES!!!!!! 
Considering how much shit he constantly makes up, can he really be expected to remember actual facts? 
His viability as a candidate for president NEVER should have gotten this far. Jan 6 should have been immediately disqualifying.
Mainstream media like the NYT shoulders much of the blame.
And he heads off into rhetorical cul-de-sacs. “So we built a thing called the Panama Canal,” he told the conservative host Tucker Carlson last year. “We lost 35,000 people to the mosquito, you know, malaria. We lost 35,000 people building — we lost 35,000 people because of the mosquito. Vicious. They had to build under nets. It was one of the true great wonders of the world. As he said, ‘One of the nine wonders of the world.’ No, no, it was one of the seven. It just happened a little while ago. You know, he says, ‘Nine wonders of the world.’ You could make nine wonders. He would’ve been better off if he stuck with the nine and just said, ‘Yeah, I think it’s nine.’”
Although people did sleep under mosquito netting.
"You know, the kind they have at those 3-story golf driving ranges. We got those because of our great leaders who first discovered them for that thing they call the Panarama Canal."
I'd love it if we could keep him around just to provide us with comic relief with his distorted 'American History.' However, we CANNOT allow him any closer to the White House than the Panama Canal is! Maybe he can start his 'stand-up' on the 'Tonight Show' when Johnny Carson returns!
MSNBC: Baker and Kasich.
There are more but those two come to mind now.
about his mental deterioration?
The real question is, will Don Jr. become Vance's new running mate?

Here let me fix that for you: "it no longer even generates much attention at the NYT, and we seldom wrote about it anyway."
