The former professor at Johns Hopkins University told The Daily Beast Podcast in a livestream on Monday that Trump, 79, has been “showing signs of frontotemporal dementia since 2019.” Gartner said Trump’s deterioration is now accelerating so quickly that he is “not the same man he was four weeks ago,” even as the president wages a war with Iran.
