Imagine if somehow, some way, Trump wins the election. Do you think anyone in his family or administration would let it be known that he's non compos mentis?

They'd hide that fact until the very last second before it finally came out. There's the Treaury to rob, below-board deals to be struck with every dictator on the planet. There's the rights of American citizens to repeal, and the wrongs of christian-nationalists to enact into the law of the land.

No, he could be dead for months, years, before they'd give anyone a hint that something was even amiss.

If he's going to lose all cognitive ability I want to know NOW!
