Pars Today – The American newspaper USA Today, in a report referring to the incoherent remarks of the U.S. president during his trip to Scotland, implicitly accused him of suffering from dementia.

Joe Biden, the former U.S. president, had also been repeatedly accused of dementia due to his delusional behavior and statements, prompting Republicans — including Donald Trump — to call for his resignation.

According to Pars Today, quoting ISNA, USA Today, referencing Donald Trump’s incoherent remarks during his recent trip to Scotland, accused him of mental dullness.

The American outlet wrote that Trump’s irrational and bizarre comments during the trip were further evidence of his deteriorating mental capacity.

The newspaper specifically pointed to Trump’s statements in Scotland about wind turbines generating electricity, his stance on starving children in Gaza, and his conspiracy theories regarding the scandalous case of Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender with ties to many prominent political and public figures in the U.S., as examples of Trump’s diminished cognition.

The infamous island

USA Today wrote: “Trump engaged in baseless conspiracy theories surrounding the Epstein scandal, which even implicated his own administration — despite having claimed upon arriving in Scotland on July 25 that he was not focused on conspiracies. Judging by Trump’s nonsense, you could conclude that 90% of his brain is conspiracy theories and the other 10% is brain cells.”

Regarding Trump’s repeated and strange remarks about the Epstein case, USA Today added:

“Trump’s mental dullness led him to keep bringing up the Epstein scandal — a scandal everyone wants to move on from — while effectively trying to convince the world it’s ‘not a big deal.’”

Wind turbines

USA Today also reported Trump’s strange opposition to wind turbines and his lengthy commentary during a meeting with Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, noting:

“Trump went on and on about wind turbines — even though no one asked him to talk about it. His statements were full of lies. Wind turbines are notthe most expensive way to generate electricity. They last well over eight years. But who expects honesty from someone addicted to rambling?”

Trump’s nonsense about starving children in Gaza

According to USA Today, on July 27, Trump, while appearing with von der Leyen, was asked how he felt about the images of starving children in Gaza.

His response was another string of bizarre and unrelated comments:

“That whole place is a mess. You know, Gaza was given away years ago, they said peace could be achieved. That didn’t go too well. When Israel gave it up — whoever the prime minister was at the time, I know him — it wasn’t exactly the smartest move. I think Iran is taking action. A lot of people are moving. We’ve got Venezuela doing things in a different way.”

USA Today, in its analysis of Trump’s incoherent remarks, described them as disjointed and wrote:

“If Joe Biden had made such statements during his presidency, Republicans would have either impeached him or ordered that he be confined to a room at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.”
