Former U.S. President Donald Trump is once again in the news, but this time not for politics – instead, it’s about his health. His own nephew, Fred Trump III, has shared some worrying claims about Trump’s mental condition. In a recent interview, Fred said that Trump is showing ( Dementia ) signs like forgetting things, confusion, and having a hard time focusing.
“In a big statement, Fred Trump III, who is Donald Trump’s nephew and son of Fred Trump Jr, has shared serious worries about Donald Trump’s mental health.
He says there is a history of dementia in their family, which makes him concerned. Fred has also written a book called All in the Family, The Trumps and How We Got This Way, where he talks about the Trump family’s fights, relationships, and their family history.”
These comments come at a time when Trump is also questioning President Joe Biden’s mental health, which has already been a big issue in the U.S. elections. But Trump’s doctor says he is healthy, and even passed a mental test with full marks.
Right now, there is no proof that Trump has signs like dementia because no doctor has done a full test on him. Still, the mistakes in his talking and memory make some people wonder if he is healthy enough to be president again. Many experts say people should keep watching and wait for a real medical check-up before saying anything for sure. So for now, these are only warnings, not real proof, and only a proper doctor’s check-up can tell what is really going on with his brain.
Health Clash: Trump vs Biden
Dr. Gartner said there are lots of times when Trump makes these mistakes. “He explained that it might seem small, but it’s important for real doctors to check it out because it can be a sign of a brain problem.
Gartner said normal forgetting, like you and me might have as we get older, is different.
Trump is using the wrong words or can’t finish a full idea, which is more serious. Gartner, who does not like Trump, was then asked what it would mean if a president really did have dementia, since that could be a big problem”
What is Dementia ?
Dementia is a medical condition where the brain loses its ability to think, remember, or reason clearly. The World Health Organization says around 55 million people globally have dementia, and nearly 10 million new cases happen every year.
Alzheimer’s disease is the most common cause, making up 60–70% of dementia cases. Symptoms include forgetting names, getting lost, struggling to find words, and changes in behavior.
Dementia usually affects people over 65 but can happen earlier. There is no cure yet, but some medicines and therapies can help with symptoms. Families and caregivers play an important role in giving support and care.
A psychologist who studies the brain says Donald Trump might be showing early signs of a sickness called dementia. This sickness makes it hard for people to remember things and talk clearly. The doctor saw that Trump’s movements and the way he talks are changing, which can be warning signs.
