Opinion | Why are press, GOP ignoring Trump's cognitive decline? (bostonglobe.com)

We can see the decline in the former president’s ability to hold a train of thought, speak coherently, or demonstrate a command of the English language, to say nothing of policy. So why are Republicans and the press holding Trump to a different standard than Biden?

Key Facts

In interviews and speeches that have grown progressively longer during his third White House campaign, Trump often leaps back and forth from one topic to the next, appears increasingly unhinged, and mixes up and mispronounces words.

He jumped from discussing the dollar to French President Emmanuel Macron during an interview with Bloomberg at the Chicago Economic Club on Wednesday, and he responded to a question from the outlet’s Editor-in-Chief John Micklethwait about whether Google should be broken up by mentioning a partisan court battle over Virginia’s election protocols.

During a rally in Arizona on Sunday, he mispronounced “Arizonians” as “Azurasians,” drawing ridicule on social media, and he described fighters in Afghanistan as “a million Rambos” in response to a question from a reporter about Iran’s attack against Israel earlier this month in Wisconsin.

During the Oaks town hall, he responded to a question about grocery prices with a rant about migrants, who he likened to the fictional serial killer, Hannibal Lecter, a comparison he’s made frequently in recent months; he also told attendees to vote on “Jan. 5,” two months after Election Day.

In her article, titled "He's Decompensating Before Our Eyes," the clinical psychologist said Donald Trump's performance during the event exhibited signs of what she believes to be severe mental deterioration.

"This is serious, serious stuff and yet the media are, once again, falling down on the job," she said. "If nothing else matters—the criminality, the cruelty, the misogyny, the racism, the viciousness, the freaking fascism—[then] surely the steep cognitive decline of a man who is running to be the leader of the free world should matter."

• Trump scrapped a Q&A at a rally and decided to listen to music instead — for 39 minutes.
• Trump advisors later tried to spin the awkward musical moment as a “total lovefest.”
• That “lovefest” kicked off a week filled with extreme examples of Trump’s deteriorating ability to reason.
