Trump: blunder in his speech – He called Melania Mercedes (video)

Mental health expert fears former US president has dementia

Newsroom February 26 04:05

Following in Biden’s footsteps, his political rival Donald Trump is walking in Biden’s footsteps, making verbal stumbles which has experts deeply concerned about his mental state ahead of the November elections.

This time, however, in a speech in Washington, the Republican former US president made a mistake in referring to his third wife as instead of calling her Melania, he called her Mercedes!

Watch video:

Audiences were stunned to hear Trump refer to his wife as a brand of car with some experts warning that he is showing strong signs of dementia.

As the Mirror reports, Donald Trump, who accuses Democratic President Joe Biden of being too old to re-claim power in the US, seems to be falling into the… hole he dug himself by even confusing his wife’s name at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC).

What experts think about Trump

Mental health experts fear that the former US president is suffering from dementia and is, in fact, in worse shape than 81-year-old Democrat Biden.

Speaking in Washington, D.C., Trump began applauding the former “First Lady” of the United States, and saying how much “people love her.” “Oh, look at that Mercedes (instead of saying Melania), she’s really good,” he said as the crowd continued to applaud.

At the same time, he warned his fellow Americans about the future they could face if the current president renews his term in the White House in November. “If Joe Biden wins in 2024, the worst is yet to come. Our country will sink much further,” he said.

However, research by the University Medical School has shown that it is actually Trump, not US President Biden, who has diminished mental capacity.
