Trump’s Public Speeches Raise Concerns Over His Mental Sharpness

At 78, Donald Trump is set to become the oldest U.S. president if he wins and completes another term. His speeches, once noted for being tangential, have grown longer, more erratic, and less coherent with age, raising questions about his mental sharpness.

A recent example saw Trump recalling a debate with Vice President Kamala Harris, during which he claimed the crowd was on his side. In reality, there was no audience, underscoring concerns about his increasing detachment from reality. This pattern has led many to question whether his age is affecting his ability to stay focused and grounded in his public remarks.
