00:02Psychologists insist president is clearly deteriorating mentally and physically.
00:08A psychologist is certain Donald Trump has dementia after evaluating and comparing recent changes in the president's health.
00:15During a guest appearance on the Daily Beast podcast, Dr. John Gartner claimed Trump's clear signs of deterioration are proof the 79-year-old is battling dementia.
00:24Trump has been hit with accusations his cognitive capabilities are declining for months.
00:28Well before he was inaugurated as the 47th president of the United States back in January.
00:34Explaining how he arrived at a dementia diagnosis for President Trump, Dr. Gartner noted,
00:39We have to see a major deterioration in functioning in language and thinking and psychomotor performance and impulse control and a whole variety of areas.
00:47What a lot of people don't realize is that Donald Trump used to be a very articulate person.
00:52He used to speak with a high level of vocabulary in very polished paragraphs.
00:56Now what we see is not only has his vocabulary gone down, but there are times when he's really unable to complete a thought.
01:05Sometimes he's unable to complete a word, the psychologist told podcast host Joanna Coles.
01:10The former Johns Hopkins professor cited recent remarks made by Trump while calling out the Republican politician for frequently going on tangents in the middle of his sentences.
01:19Gartner referenced Trump's frequent comments about fictional serial killer Hannibal Lecter.
01:24As the psychologist recalled, he was lying and saying that they're sending all these immigrants from insane asylums, right?
01:30And then he goes,
01:32Silence of the Lambs.
01:33Anyone seen Silence of the Lambs?
01:35Well, Silence of the Lambs is a movie about insane asylums.
01:39Okay, so now we've moved from immigrants to has anyone seen this movie?
01:44And then he goes,
01:45The late great Hannibal Lecter.
01:47Nobody likes to talk about him anymore.
01:49Well, first of all, he's not dead.
01:51He's a fictional character, so he can't be the late Hannibal Lecter.
01:55The shrinking Trump podcast host continued,
01:57Gartner accused Trump of being a malignant narcissist,
02:00which he claimed was a worst case scenario alongside his alleged dementia symptoms.
02:05Now, Trump's chronic organic decline is evident.
02:07His judgment has worsened, affecting cognitive clarity and planning.
02:13An expert consultant suggested his wide-based gait indicates frontotemporal dementia.
02:18Gartner also cited Trump's droopy face at a 9-11 event, suggesting a potential mini-stroke.
02:24He's clearly deteriorating mentally and physically, Gartner concluded.
