A Republican advisor has claimed that President Donald Trump may be showing signs of mental decline serious enough to prevent him from finishing another term in office.

Rick Wilson, co-founder of the Lincoln Project political action committee, expressed concern about President Donald Trump’s health in an exclusive interview with Times Radio. He described the president’s recent behavior as troubling and possibly indicative of cognitive deterioration.

“He is incoherent,” Wilson said. “His inability to articulate any thought or position without constant asides, constant lapses, the verbal aphasias he is experiencing at various points.”

Wilson, a longtime Republican strategist who has followed Trump closely since 2015, added, “I can tell you the man you’re watching today is not the Trump of 2015, nor is he the Trump of 2020, he’s not even the Trump of 2024.”

He also cast doubt on Trump’s fitness for a full term in office, saying, “Whether he makes it through four years is an open question.”

Although Trump has reportedly passed both physical and psychological assessments, Wilson warned that these results might not reflect his current condition.

“There are an awful lot of professionals in the world who are looking at the same set of behaviours and saying, ‘This is what we see in early dementia cases’… this is what we see when there is a cognitive decline,” Wilson shared.

He emphasized that passing a cognitive test does not rule out age-related health problems. “The ravages of age and ill health,” he said, may still be affecting President Trump.
