Tony Schwartz, who co-authored The Art of the Deal with former President Trump over three decades ago, appeared on MSNBC to share his perspective on his campaign. Though the nature of their relationship in the time that’s passed is unclear, Schwartz claims to have insight into the inner workings of Trump’s psyche and mental fitness.

Journalist and author Tony Schwartz joined MSNBC anchor Ari Melber for an interview on Friday where the pair discussed recent reports that the GOP nominee has become exhausted on the campaign trail.
Melber started by playing a clip over a decade old in which Trump slams candidates that are “too afraid” to debate, accusing him of hypocrisy based on his decision to abstain from any further debates, ignoring that after the moderators in his first debate with Harris joined his opponent in arguing with him, Harris declined to participate in a debate hosted by Fox News.
He then repeated Harris’s talking points about Trump being afraid and low energy.
Schwartz responded, “Well, I think there are very few ways to siphon off votes from either side right now. And I think one of them is he’s exhausted. I mean, remember the Hillary during the Hillary campaign where she at the World Trade Center where she kind of collapsed. And, yeah, they used he used that. And I think-“
Melber interjected, “Animal instinct.”
“Yeah. I mean, he’s a feral guy. Like he’s a very animalistic human being. And so I think that he I think he is I think she is going after the very few things that I think can affect this.”
Schwartz went on to repeat Democratic concerns about Trump’s mental fitness after nominating Joe Biden who was already in visible cognitive decline in 2020, and concealing rapid deterioration until the first debate of the election season.
“So what are they? So, number one, there is that he is clearly moving toward dementia…What are the symptoms? He can’t put sentences together. He loses track of what he’s saying. He contradicts himself.”
He then goes on to assert that Trump will “say anything to anyone” ignoring Harris’s continued flip flops, her apparent inability to explain them, and the numerous policy proposals she’s been forced to walk back just days after sharing them.
“And that is combined with the second thing that I think is powerful, which is we’ve always known that he is a man without conscience. He’s a saint. He’s shameless. Meaning he will say anything to anyone. So what you just saw him say was absolutely clearly a lie. His fear is really high now. And if you combine the evidence of dementia with a psychopathic personality and his age and exhaustion as one of the consequences, this is one toxic brew that I think that I think some voters will be influenced by.”

Oct 20, 2024 What was the person’s view of Biden’s mental state when he was still running.? there was a comment that Trump caught a bullet and in three days was back to work.. Biden caught Covid, went home and quit.. Is that accurate?
These same people who swore Biden was “sharp as a tack” up until the morning after the infamous debate now use wield cognitive decline as a weapon. They voted a court jester into office who was clearly of diminishing capacity. Now they wield “cognitive decline” as though they are the bastion of cognitive awareness. Such hypocrisy tells it all about the leftists. Pretty creepy bunch.
I say Bull to mental decline! He is a hell of a lot sharper than his opponent!
You are full of BS!!!
