President Donald Trump has led a number of self-proclaimed sane people (i.e. his critics) towards becoming self-proclaimed medical professionals.
It wouldn’t be the first time. I’ve seen a number of Trump critics engage in armchair psychology and declare the man insane. This time, the Twittersphere has been hitting him with a diagnosis so exaggerated it would make WebMD proud. See if you can take a guess at what debilitating terminal illness Trump has from the following picture yourself!
Any luck? Well if you guessed “dementia,” and I’m not really sure why you would have, you were correct.
According to the Daily Mail, Twitter went into meltdown mode yesterday after President Trump took “an awkward swig of water” while unveiling a new national security strategy. Apparently it was the way he cradled it with two hands that led some to suspect a serious degenerative disorder was the cause.
As the Daily Mail reports,
Twitter was quick to play amateur diagnostician and raised concerns the movement could be evidence of a serious degenerative disorder, such as dementia, which can cause shaky hands. In November, he picked up a bottle of Fiji water in both hands and sipped it awkwardly during a press conference at the White House.
And earlier this month, speculation went wild after Trump began slurring through part of his speech announcing changes to America’s Israel policy.
He finished his remarks by saying ‘God bless the United Shhtates. Thank you very much-sh.’
Conspiracy theorists on Twitter launched into high gear, including Democratic partisans who speculated about every possible cause from a mini-stroke to cocaine use.
TV host Joe Scarborough also weighed in, saying ‘people close to him during the campaign told me [he] had early stages of dementia’.
