    Re: Trump cognitive decline?

    Doctors don’t measure decline by an absolute score but by whether your score is declining relatively over time. I have hear tell that Trump was much better spoken decades ago (no: “I’m very smart”). If removing him for inability to perform ever comes up (for his cabinet) a serious loss of verbal acuity over time could be one deciding evidentiary factor.

    More likely his removal will be for criminal actions.
