Donald Trump's abilities are 'declining significantly', a speech pathologist has warned, after analysing the president's National Mall speech in Washington DC last Wednesday for America's 250th birthday celebration and flagging what she says are repeated signs of possible neurological decline.
The remarks came during Trump's appearance at the 'Great American State Fair' event on the National Mall, a celebration that has already been dogged by rows over attendance and crowd management. Clips of the speech circulated widely online afterwards, with much of the chatter fixating on video angles that appeared to show people walking away mid‑speech. Buried underneath that noise, however, was a quieter but far more serious conversation about how Trump actually sounded.
