    I think you missed the part where he also admits he has memory problems because of it.

    And that article is paywalled, but it has been reported that in his divorce deposition, he said his ability to earn money was affected by cognitive problems from it. Back in 2012.

    It also says he had mercury poisoning (he claims it’s from all the fish he ate), which is pretty fucking ironic considering this is the guy who went apeshit over a negligible bit of mercury in vaccines.

    I do not think it is ableism to say that someone who reports having significant cognitive problems shouldn’t be president.
