Yet, we can see that it\u2019s not actually perfect, that he\u2019s entering his ninth decade in two weeks, and he appears frenzied.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cHe doesn\u2019t sleep much. He has a terrible diet. He takes no exercise,\u201d she continued. \u201cYou\u2019ve studied presidents, you\u2019ve worked alongside presidents, you know the stress of the job gets to people. He seems very stressed at the moment with his frenzied tweets or Truth Socials. What do you think about this visit to Walter Reed?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know that people normally go once a year. He\u2019s going every few months,\u201d Rothkopf replied. \u201cWe know that some of the things that are said in the medical report are obviously lies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen they say he\u2019s 6\u20323\u2033 and 230 pounds, all you have to do is Google what a 6\u20323\u2033, 230-pound athlete looks like,\u201c the political expert continued. \u201dTrump does not look like that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>MS NOW host Michael Steele highlighted the ridiculous comparison in a <i>The Weeknight<\/i> segment last week, pitting the president up against NFL athletes of similar sizes.<\/p>\n<p>Trump, seen side-by-side with Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf, 28, and Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold, 28, looked much different than the athletes despite their similar measurements.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know that the assertion that he has bruises on his hands because of handshaking is ludicrous,\u201d Rothkopf added. \u201cAnd we know that Trump\u2019s assertion that he is the only guy who\u2019s had to go through all these cognitive tests and he passed them with flying colors is silly because you don\u2019t get cognitive tests unless the doctor thinks you\u2019ve got a problem with your cognition.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As he has repeatedly boasted throughout his second administration, Trump bragged about his \u201cfourth such\u201d cognitive exam that he got a \u201cPERFECT\u201d score on in a Truth Social post on Sunday.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cIt is very rare that anyone gets a Perfect Score, especially when achieved four times in a row,\u201d the president, who turns 80 on June 14, said about the MOCA exam, which is a dementia screening tool.<\/p>\n<p>Reached for comment on Rothkopf\u2019s remarks, White House spokesperson told the Daily Beast in a frequently recycled statement: \u201cDavid Rothkopf is a far-left loser who clearly suffers from a severe and debilitating disease known as Trump Derangement Syndrome that has rotted his peanut-sized brain.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=517\">CBS Legends Blast \u201860 Minutes\u2019 Over MAGA Makeover<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve got that as evidence, but we\u2019ve also got evidence of the behavior\u201a&#8221; Rothkopf said, noting the president\u2019s 52-post Truth Social marathon this weekend that included an AI-generated photo of himself horseback riding with George Washington beside a NASCAR race in front of the White House.<\/p>\n<p>Trump also posted another AI image depicting himself as a Revolutionary War-era military commander with body armor and fighter jets soaring behind him, captioned: \u201cYou\u2019re getting discombobulated.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWho does that?\u201d the political expert said about the absurd \u201cdiscombobulated\u201d post. \u201cYou wouldn\u2019t share it with your friends because you know they would think you were nuts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rothkopf also noted how Trump\u2019s lack of a filter in public, his increased use of profanity, and his difficulty controlling his emotions are all warning signs of dementia.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know that his behavior is erratic. We know that he\u2019s doing irrational things. We know that he\u2019s ignoring rational advice,\u201d he said. \u201cLook, you don\u2019t have to be a psychiatrist to know that this guy is behaving in an erratic, irrational way for whatever the organic reason is. You don\u2019t have to be a doctor to know that this guy is physically unwell.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rothkopf highlighted how Trump was seen having difficulty standing while visiting with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing last month, along with his long-winded, rambling speeches whenever he\u2019s put in front of a microphone.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s 80! He\u2019s had a good life, and he should be at Mar-a-Lago sitting by the pool, having a margarita, talking to his friends about things he used to do,\u201d the political guru said. \u201cUnfortunately, he is a disturbed, sick lunatic who holds the most powerful job in the world and is at a stage of his existence where, because he\u2019s a narcissist, the only thing he cares about is himself. And if every single one of us ceased to exist, he wouldn\u2019t care, because the world is him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rothkopf explained that Trump\u2019s excessive defense budget geared for nuclear weapons development, coupled with his \u201cGolden Dome\u201d proposal and White House ballroom\/underground bunker complex, are both prime examples of his \u201cdark fantasies\u201d made manifest.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis guy\u2019s got some dark fantasies, and in all of those fantasies, the role we play is victim,\u201d he concluded. \u201cAnd that\u2019s scary as s&#8211;t, regardless of what the final diagnosis of Donald Trump is when you and Michael Wolff go and perform the autopsy and really, finally, once and for all, get inside Trump\u2019s head.\u201d<\/p>\n<div>\n<p><i><b>New episodes of The Daily Beast Podcast are released every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday on <\/b><\/i><i><b>YouTube<\/b><\/i><i><b>, and on <\/b><\/i><i><b>other podcast platforms<\/b><\/i><i><b> the next morning.
