Ty Cobb: 'Significant decline' in Trump mental faculties

Former White House attorney Ty Cobb claimed President Trump is experiencing a “significant decline” in his mental faculties, pointing to the commander in chief’s Tuesday appearance at a White House press briefing to mark the anniversary of his return to the Oval Office.
“I think there’s been a significant decline. He’s always been driven by narcissism. But I think the dementia and the cognitive decline are, you know, palpable, as do many experts, including many physicians,” Cobb told MS NOW’s Ari Melber on “The Beat,” in comments highlighted by Mediaite.
Dr. Jonathan Reiner, who served as a cardiologist for former Vice President Dick Cheney, on Monday pushed for a congressional inquiry into Trump’s fitness. Reiner noted a recent letter from Trump to Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre featuring the president seemingly connecting his threats to acquire Greenland with not winning the 2025 the Nobel Peace Prize.
“This letter, and the fact that the president directed that it be distributed to other European countries, should trigger a bipartisan congressional inquiry into presidential fitness,” Reiner wrote on the social platform X.
At the beginning of the month, Trump said he was in “perfect health” and “aced” a cognitive exam.
