Trump’s New York case will begin in March
A New York judge ruled Thursday that Donald Trump will stand trial in March on charges related to the Stormy Daniels coverup. Assuming the case goes forward as scheduled, Trump will be the first former president ever to be criminally tried. It will also be the first criminal case to slot in place among the complicated judicial calendar Trump is facing in this election year, and it means Trump will almost certainly face a jury before Election Day. In three other jurisdictions—Georgia state court and federal courts in Florida, and Washington, D.C.—Trump has been indicted on charges related to the 2020 elections and his retention of classified documents, but the timetable for those cases remains unclear.
He has dementia. It is how incompetency pleas work.
Not really.
A diagnosis of dementia would not automatically preclude someone from standing trial. Being incompetent to stand trial means that you can’t assist your defense. I think that’s a pretty high bar. Trump is obviously not one of our sharpest minds but he can’t be competent enough to make speeches on TV (even if they are rants) while simultaneously be incompetent such that he can’t discuss his case with his lawyers.
Citation needed.
I mean, have you not been paying attention for the last 4 years? He’s been on a mental decline for a while now. It’s just a matter of time before he has a sundowning tantrum on live TV.
Also, I know serval people in the mental health and elderly care fields, and they’ve known for a while now.
Being an asshole doesn’t mean you have dementia, nor does that fact that you don’t like Trump mean that he has a degenerative mental condition. Sorry, believing that is on the same level as believing qanon.
All you have to do is watch interviews of him from the 2000s to know that he’s experienced significant cognitive decline.
He’s always been a stupid narcissistic asshole, but he’s clearly demented.
Also, I guess you missed the part where people with experience in the subject confirmed what I said.
