Draft dodging con man and malignant narcissist Donald "Cadet Bone Spurs" Trump gave, by all accounts, a long boring speech full of platitudes and bragging to graduating West Point cadets yesterday. The fact that it was held in person is a symptom of Trump's reckless megalomania, in wanting a video clip for his campaign and the cadets as his props, damn the pandemic. In order to participate, the cadets had to quarantine for 14 days, all to appease the draft dodger-in-chief.
Interestingly, some observers commented on Trump's deterioration, including Aaron Rupar:

Maybe the hydroxychloroquine has addled him further, or maybe he's mainlining Clorox. But he's looking feeble and, as he would say, low energy.
BONUS I: Recall these earlier instances of Trump's odd difficulty with water glasses and bottles:
BONUS II: Mental health professionals weigh in:
This is not the first time trump has needed two hands to drink water because he couldn’t get the glass to his mouth. This ataxia, along with problems with balance and gait, semantic and phonetic paraphasias, and noted deterioration in vocabulary. It’s dementia #TrumpIsNotWell https://t.co/jgEewwK8n9— Duty To Warn 🔉 (@duty2warn) June 14, 2020
BONUS III: The choice.
BONUS IV: Steve M. at No More Mister Nice Blog notes Bunker Boy's been slowly deteriorating for years, and not to make too much of these latest instances.
