Gov. JB Pritzker (D-IL) says he thinks President Donald Trump has dementia, declaring, “I really think that there’s something genuinely wrong with him.”
“I think if you look at any of the videos from 2015 or 2016 and look at how he responded to questions and how he was at press conferences, and then you fast forward and look at him now,” Pritzker said on CNN’s The Source with Kaitlan Collins Tuesday.
Noting that he is not a doctor, Pritzker didn’t back down from his claim when Collins asked him if he was serious.
“I’m not a doctor, I haven’t diagnosed anything,” Pritzker said. “I’m just suggesting to you that just look at the way he puts words and sentences together and thoughts, and they’re almost divergent in the same sentences.”
Trump’s physical and mental health has been a constant topic of public conversation in recent months.
