28. He might have vascular dementia.

My mom had that horrible disease. Blocked arteries and hypertension lead to strokes which lead to increasingly poor cognitive function. Every stroke kills some more of the brain.

A person can recover somewhat and go along ok for a while until another stroke hits. You never know when you're going to have another.

It sounds like the doctors at Walter Reed are monitoring the progress of a disease. It's not a stretch to guess they are using MRIs and cognitive tests to monitor the status of his brain and arteries.

As a malignant narcissist, Trump is incapable of admitting there's anything wrong with him. He'll continue to lie and deflect.
