Donald Trump’s age and aide scrutiny fuels criticism

Biographers observing President Donald Trump note that his advancing age is becoming evident in his political rhetoric. Michael Wolff and Joanna Coles, speaking on Inside Trump’s Head, said Trump’s attacks on “communists” and the way he references past eras suggest “symptoms of dementia” that began appearing around age 80.

Separate reporting highlights the controversy surrounding Trump’s young aide Natalie Harp, who has been dubbed the president’s “diaper nurse” on social media. The Irish Star cites a forthcoming book that claims Harp leaves personal letters for Trump and accompanies him to nearly every event, including a recent ceremony at Dover Air Force Base. Critics point to the nickname and unverified rumors about Harp’s role, while fact‑checkers note she is not a licensed nurse.

Both pieces reflect growing public and media focus on Trump’s health, personal aides, and the impact of his age on his presidency.
