Thirty US psychiatrists and other doctors specialising in mental health have signed a statement declaring President Donald Trump mentally unfit to serve, warning that his ability to launch nuclear weapons is a “danger” to the world.The signatories say that Trump’s behaviour over the past year has shown “objectively observable signs of serious medical concern.”
They cited examples of his “marked deterioration in cognitive functioning,” “episodes of apparent somnolence during critical public proceedings,” “severely impaired judgment and impulse control,” and “significant loss of self-control,” as well as “grandiose and delusional beliefs, including assertions of infallibility, imagery of himself as Pope suggestive of a divine mission.”
The doctors called for Trump’s immediate removal from office, arguing that he presents a “clear and present danger” to the whole world.
“It is our expert opinion that Donald J Trump is mentally unfit to be the president of the United States and that steps to remove him from office must be undertaken with the greatest urgency,” they said.

But will anybody in the correct positions of power heed their expert advice?
Unlikely, until it suits them.
It may be expert advice but have they physically examined the buffoon? Stakeholders will continue pushing a different narrative. It’s an act, it’s his brand, it’s a character, it’s covfefe.
Reagan apparently showed signs of Alzheimer’s whilst in office, although some dispute that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ronald_Reagan#Alzheimer’s_disease
