"Dementia" is a clinical term. It shouldn't be used unless there's real evidence that substantiates its use.
I don't think Trump has dementia. I watched the entire Trump-Biden debate. Biden clearly is diminished from the person he was when he ran in 2020. Trump, to me, looks like much the same person he was in the previous elections. He's ignorant, and he lies all the time, and he speaks like a 5th-grade playground bully, but he's always talked that way. During the debate he was alert and attentive and he made some effective rejoinders to Biden. Biden looked lost and couldn't put words together.
Trump is 78 and it's likely that his faculties are showing some signs of age, but I don't see it as dementia. It's just a mild erosion of what was already a pretty low starting point, intellectually speaking.
