Donald Trump exhibited signs of cognitive decline and short-term memory loss, according to Richard A. Friedman, a renowned psychiatrist and director of the psychopharmacology clinic at Cornell University's Weill Cornell Medical College.
In an article for the Atlantic, Friedman opened by stating, "any fair-minded mental-health expert would be very worried about Donald Trump's performance." He then enumerated the reasons for his alarm, while maintaining he was not offering an official diagnosis of the former president.
