Donald Trump’s Tuesday night State of the Union address began on a fraught note when the current occupant of the White House appeared to snub House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s extended hand before he began to indulge himself by spewing out a list of lies to the American people. Lying is nothing new to this president as he has totaled more than 16,000 mistruths since taking office. But, add the septuagenarian president’s slurred words to the mix and the outcome is even more bizarre. In fact, it’s such a surreal scene to watch the former reality show star slur his speech on numerous occasions that mental health professionals have expressed concern over Trump’s well-being.
A Yale psychologist has been warning the public about Trump’s mental health decline for a while and has even called for a thorough neuropsychiatric evaluation of the president. Trump’s MAGA address to the country last night was no different as his brain seemed to short circuit while trying to utter the simplest of words.

Twitter users were wondering if Trump is OK.
This was clearly a speech worth preserving.
But, for real, this man is mentally unwell.

Why does none of the media talk about this? Why is he slurring his words? It should concern all of us, whether we support him or not.

Ok, but I’m pretty sure “stanktuary” is what the Secret Service calls Trump’s bedroom. 🤷♀️

WOW…when are they going to own up to his mental decline. That shoulder shake and speech interruption is ominous.

Pence seems to realize something is wrong with him.

Seriously can we find a neurologist to weigh in on this? This isn’t normal behavior.

Those arm spasms as he slurs….there is something medically as well as mentally wrong with him. Cc @TomJChicago

I’m with everyone else — why isn’t the media covering this? The president is obviously not well and he has the nuclear codes.
