Speaking of Alzheimer’s Disease, Trump says he aced the one he took. He was able to identify an elephant out of 3 drawings of animals. But, he said the hardest questions were the last 5. Year. Month. Date. Day. Place.
The mere fact that he’s going around bragging about acing an Alzheimer’s test proves he has a mental defect. Only it’s not organic. It’s psychological according to his niece, Mary Trump, a clinical psychologist.
Yup. He’s not right in the head. But, you knew that Trump cultists. Why do you pretend he’s normal?

I have talked to this elderly man for over 12 years. The last time I talked to him was in January of 2020 at Grace Resource Center. I talked to him, but he didn’t say anything to me. A homeless man told me that he didn’t recognize anyone anymore. I remember that day seeing a Hispanic lady getting into a light brown truck, then a mentally disturbed blond haired elderly homeless man accused that Hispanic lady of working for a drug cartel. He told Theodore to writing down all the car plates of drug cartel people that sneak into Grace Resource Center to spy on the homeless. Theodore then shook his head from side to side to signal the word “No.” Then he backed away from that deranged homeless man. Since January 2020, Theodore has been driving around fine, taking care of his personal life without getting lost. He would never abandon his vehicle on a desserted road like 90th Street East and Avenue L-8 in Lancaster. If he did leave his vehicle there, I’m positive the sheriff’s department would have found his body a few miles from his vehicle. The cartels have a method of operations where they kidnap a victim then they abandon the victim’s vehicle at a location far from where they bury the victim’s body. That’s what they did to Jose Ahumada when they kidnapped him in Palmdale and they abandoned his vehicle in North Hollywood while burying his body in Lancaster. It’s possible that Theodore got caught up in a cartel gang war in the antelope valley, as an innocent man who was misidentified as a snitch. A day or two ago, a local drug dealer disappeared in Palmdale. I heard that there are approximately 5 major cartels from Mexico trafficking drugs in the antelope valley and they have been killing each other’s drug mules. I hope they find Theodore alive and healthy.

I know this elderly man. He always eats at Grace resource center and he has lots of homeless friends. He typically leaves his car parked in a secure street and he stays with homeless friends and girlfriends. The homeless that eat at Grace resource center most likely know where he is at.
