JB Pritzker Urges Trump's Family To Get Him Medical Help For Dementia

Gov. JB Pritzker urged Donald Trump's family to step in and get the president the help that he seems to need for dementia.

Gov. JB Pritzker (D-IL) has distinguished himself during the second Trump presidency by saying the things that other political leaders won’t.

Pritzker has expressed the fear that Trump could use the National Guard to suppress the vote in next year’s midterm election.

The Illinois governor has not been afraid to challenge Trump directly over his use of ICE and the National Guard in the city of Chicago.

One of the new lines of attack that Pritzker has opened is that he is discussing his opinion on Trump’s mental health. Specifically, his opinion that Trump has dementia.

Gov. Pritzker expanded on his concern about Trump’s mental health in an interview with The New Republic.

Pritzker said:

I do think he needs mental health help. And I don’t think anybody around him that works for him is going to do that, because they’re benefiting from his failure of mental health, his dementia. I wish somebody would help out the President of the United States.

Meanwhile, you know, he says a lot of crazy things. He doesn’t have authority to arrest elected officials or really anybody where you don’t have any example of a crime being committed. And I find it ironic that this guy who’s a 34-time convicted felon is saying that I should be jailed. I’ve never been accused of, or convicted of, or, you know, gone on trial for anything. He’s the guy who’s done that so many times, and cheated, by the way, in civil court. And I don’t take it seriously other than I think the man has so much power at his fingertips because he’s president of the United States that the people around him might try to take it upon themselves to just make something up and come after me, or Gavin Newsom, I know they’ve mentioned that they might jail him, or the mayor of the city of Chicago.

What Pritzker is suggesting isn’t a partisan issue. It is a potential national crisis, but if the White House is hiding a presidential mental health problem, it would not be the first time that such a thing has happened involving this president.
