I’m watching Trump, who was MIA for a week, giving a speech in England.

Contrary to popular reports of his demise, he is his usual “charming” self. Very aware and on track across reporters questions.

He may have had some golf outings or medical appointments last week, but this guy does not have dementia and looks in good health.

The left has grossly misrepresented and under estimated the enemy. Be very careful at grasping for straws and wishful thinking in this environment. The left needs to organize and plan for a strong administration across four years. Hate seems to be a fountain of youth for people of a certain constitution. Look at Kissinger. Learn from history. Don’t be complacent.

What about the face drooping? Strokes don't inspire confidence in health.

Let's not act like his words are proper English either. I've never seen him speak logically. It's always a slurry of semi (sometimes not) related clauses that together don't say anything significant.

This aids with recall if you don't need to remember exact facts (remember that biggly 300 million number) and it's absolutely a sign someone is masking mental decline. It doesn't mean he has dementia, but the effectual difference on a bad day is meaningless at a state event.
