Is He Coherent? Or is He on the Road Toward Dementia?

 Read Trump's words yourself. Is he coherent? Will he continue to decline, and by the time he is elected, will we have elected an utter madman? Moments after he boasted that he had "aced" a test for dementia, he was saying:
   "We're going to place strong protections to stop banks and regulators from trying to debank you from your-- you know, your political beliefs, what they do. They want to debank you, and we're going to debank-- think of this: They want to take away your rights. They want to take away your country. The things they are doing -- all the electric cars. Give me a break. If you want an electric car, good, but they don't go very far; they are very expensive. They gotta be made in China."
   "Debank" is a word. It means to take away a person's right to have a bank account. Trump was likely referring to when JPMorgan Chase closed a few accounts or denied services to conservative organizations. In one of those instances, the bank said the reason it closed an account was because it needed more information about the account holder's donors. 
   But, it is Trump's bouncing from one thing to another without good connection that makes you wonder. JPMorgan might have closed the account of a conservative group for good reason or bad, we don't know, but are we really to believe that the average American -- or any other American at all -- is on the verge of having his or her bank account closed if their political beliefs don't match up with those of the bank? 
   Then he started to say that it was he who was going to debank someone, but stopped midsentence to say they want to take away your country, and he seemed to be suggesting the way they are going about that is by encouraging electric cars. What's he saying? If you don't believe in electric cars, the banks are going to close your account?
   Being tested for dementia isn't a normal thing. You don't normally get tested unless there is concern you are slipping towards it. And dementia can be reflected in ways other than just loss of memory. Impaired reasoning ability is also dementia.
