Donald Trump's 'ability to maintain basic functions' in court has raised questions, with one psychologist linking the former president's behaviour to symptoms of dementia.
As Trump attends his hush money trial, he has consistently exemplified behaviours "consistent with a diagnosis of dementia," claims a psychologist.
Journalists in the Manhattan Criminal Courthouse have observed that on five out of seven recent court appearances, Trump was caught nodding off periodically at the defence table, despite his lawyers' attempts to keep him alert, the Mirror reports.
Speaking to The Mirror, Dr. John Gartner stated: "He can't control it. To uncontrollably fall asleep during the day is something that's very common among patients with dementia."
Dr Gartner, who taught psychiatry at Johns Hopkins University Medical School for 28 years, considered Trump's sleeping episodes in court as highly unusual and in need of an explanation.
Given that Trump is the accused in this case, Dr Gartner pointed out that he should be full of adrenaline, which ordinarily should keep anyone awake.
He detailed: "The natural stress response of adrenaline is one that, even if we're exhausted, it gives us another boost of energy. So, anybody who's in that position, you could see why it would be so unusual for them to fall asleep."
A defendant dozing off in the dock is "literally so uncommon, it's basically unheard of", Gartner remarked.
He said he's spoken with numerous legal colleagues and found that none had ever witnessed such an occurrence throughout their careers.
He quipped: "I've fallen asleep at the opera or whatever. But he's fallen asleep five out of the seven days.
"If he did it once, you might say, 'Oh, he had a bad night' or whatever. He can't not
