Trump's Piggy is a consequence of the #disinhibition that accompanies his cognitive impairment (aka #dementia). The media's deafening silence about #CatherineLucey being the recip ient of his outrageous, puerile, and misogynistic name calling is a profound ethical impairment.

Watching both local (NYC) & national reports, more & more details. He had a note with him asking for his brain to be studied, and blaming CTE for his woes.

I am surprised #Trump didn't use the word schlong to describe #ArnoldPalmer's penis. That was the word he used when rambling about Harvey Weinstein's treatment.
