Psychologist warns Trump’s confusion and seizures aren’t getting better

President Donald Trump continues to show "highly concerning" signs of confusion and "seizure-like episodes" during public events, according to a psychologist who has been tracking his apparent symptoms, and things are not getting better.

Dr. John Paul Garrison is a clinical and forensic psychologist specializing in body language cues, who also produces numerous YouTube videos in which he uses his professional insights to examine the behavior of public figures. Many of his recent videos have concerned Trump, with Garrison suggesting that the president is suffering from unavoidable physical and cognitive decline, based on several recurring symptoms.

In his latest video, Garrison examined some of Trump's recent appearances, pointing out "more highly concerning behaviors" exhibited during them that tie into his "apparent neurological decline." He began with Trump's White House event related to an executive order on women's health, in which he appeared to suffer another of his seizure-like episodes, something that Garrison has noticed in an increasing number of his public addresses.

"I've shown something very similar a couple of times before where we saw activity go from his right arm to his eyes to his mouth to his left arm," Garrison explained. "Now, I've shown a wide variety of... neurological glitches, but this is the one that appears to be most seizure-like."

He added later: "Now, obviously, I have not personally evaluated President Trump, but what we are observing certainly appears like seizure activity. We're seeing it spread from one side of his body to his face to the other side. There are many different reasons that people can experience this kind of neurological dysfunction. A couple of examples being the effects of a stroke or vascular dementia."

Trump also appeared to begin speaking a bit faster after the apparent episode, which Garrison said was an emerging "pattern" related to these behaviors that he has noticed more and more lately.

Earlier in the event, Garrison highlighted Trump once again appearing to slip into "microsleeps," including when he appeared to be closing his eyes while someone else was speaking. This issue could also be exacerbated by his "absurdly short attention span," since he lately appears to struggle "to sustain attention for more than a few seconds unless he's the one talking."

Later, while examining a rally appearance Trump made in Kentucky, Garrison noted signs of confusion in his address, including in a segment where he was attempting to mock former President Joe Biden, mentioning a supposed gaffe where Biden seemed to think he was in Florida while visiting Maine, also mentioning "the palm trees all over the place."

"What he's talking about makes no sense because I've researched this. I can't find where this gaffe that he's claiming happened actually occurred. And on top of that, if he was in Maine, there wouldn't be palm trees. What he's saying really makes no sense... But even President Trump seems to be confused by his own story. He starts trailing off there. Doesn't seem to know what he's talking about."
