Political analyst David Pakman raised concerns about President Donald Trump's mental state after the President delivered rambling remarks on the tarmac before boarding Air Force One following the third NBA Finals game Monday night.
Trump abruptly pivoted from a topic Interior Secretary Doug Burgum was addressing to fixate on Air Force One's appearance, "Take a look at that plane. See that plane? That's in perfect mint condition...Isn't that amazing? And everything should look that way — you look at the polish."
"Everything is beautiful."
In a reaction video, the host of the "David Pakman Show," characterized Trump's comments as stunning and concerning, suggesting Trump's brain is mush and he may be fully sundowning — a condition associated with dementia.
Pakman also highlighted Trump's pattern of attacking Black commentators, claiming they have Low-IQs, noting Trump rarely directs such attacks at white men.
Pakman questioned whether the behavior constitutes overt or implicit racism but concluded it represents a disturbing pattern from the president.
