'Deeper question' raised about Trump's 'cognitive issues' after latest lie: lawyer

Donald Trump could have lied to Fox News in an interview released Sunday, but it's also possible he's actually suffering from memory issues associated with cognitive decline, an attorney and show host argued.

Trump told a Fox panel over the weekend that he didn't say "Lock her up" referring to his 2016 presidential opponent, Hillary Clinton. Instead, he asserted, it was others, including his supporters at his rallies, who chanted the phrase about imprisoning his political opponent that election.

The internet called Trump out on the lie immediately, sharing videos of instances in which Trump himself recited the phrase at rallies. There were several prominent examples.

Dean Obeidallah, a lawyer and host of The Dean Obeidallah Show on Sirius XM, appeared on MSNBC Sunday to discuss Trump's Fox interview earlier in the day.

The host said Trump acted "as if he has no idea that his previous comments have been recorded," and then played a video of Trump saying he wanted to lock up Clinton.

"We all know he said it. Are you kidding me? That was his trademark," Obeidallah said, adding that he was focused on "Mexico is going to build a wall" and "Lock up Hillary Clinton."

"He was all about it," he added, noting that "there is a deeper question" that's involved.

"Does Trump truly not remember saying that?" he asked. He added that "there is a lot of signs about him and what he says and I am not a doctor, but some cognitive issues going on there."

He concluded that Trump "does not look well, either."

"He said it, we know it, trademark of his campaign, now to say he did not say it, it is ridiculous."
