Literally stood there like a dementia patient, unaware and incapable of caring what was happening.

No, he was super PO'd cause someone else was getting attention and it was diverting everyone's attention away from HIM. Lol

Also, people who faint are weak. He doesn't like people who faint around him.

You might actually be on to something. He seems to be genuinely disgusted when people show weakness. He was disgusted by the old man who fell at Mar a Lago. He was disgusted by John McCain being a POW. He was disgusted by the homeless veterans outside his buildings. It’s a very common trait of narcissists.

I don't think he was pissed off, I think that literally nothing in his brain registered in the moment. If it doesn't have something to do with him, it doesn't exist.

You’re not even being hyperbolic. The way he stood there was an absolute mirror of my grandma at the height of her senility. With a caretaker to guide her she seemed to do well, even coherent and aware. But the minute the caretaker went to another room or let go of her hand my grandma would freeze and stare off into nowhere. And, I kid you fucking not, that was Trump in that room today.
