British host Piers Morgan disagreed with Democratic Party strategist Julie Roginsky’s claim on Monday that President Donald Trump might not be mentally well.
Several Democrats have floated various theories on Trump, including a bizarre claim by Democratic Party strategist James Carville that syphilis might explain Trump’s interaction with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in the Oval Office. Meanwhile, during her appearance on “Piers Morgan Uncensored,” Roginsky commented on Trump’s mental state, prompting a rebuttal from Morgan.
“I don’t think Donald Trump is particularly mentally well. You may agree with me or disagree with me on that,” Roginsky said. Morgan intercepted and said, “I couldn’t disagree more. Trump to me is exactly the same. He’s exactly the same. You may not like it. He’s exactly the same Donald Trump I’ve known for 20 years. Honestly, it’s like the same guy I met on day one.”
Morgan then challenged the basis of Roginsky’s claim.
“Because he is. He just is. Tell me. Because he’s not with it the way he used to be. He’s not with it the way he used to be,” Roginsky said when Morgan asked how and why Trump is different.

Morgan, not satisfied with vague responses, countered, “You’re the one making the allegations. I’ve seen no evidence he’s not with it at all.”
The conversation then shifted to a broader political perspective, as the strategist attempted to pivot the discussion towards former President Joe Biden. Morgan, however, redirected the focus back to Trump.
“You just said Donald Trump is mentally unwell. I’m just saying what’s the evidence? The guy is 78 years old,” Morgan told Roginsky. “He still does two-hour press conferences. He does two-hour rallies. He does endless off the cuff media encounters, way more than any of his predecessors. For a guy who’s [supposedly] got mental problems, that’s pretty bold.”
The Dem strategist stood her ground and said that the ability to sustain lengthy public engagements does not necessarily correlate with mental wellness.
“Just because he’s able to have the stamina to do that does not mean that he comports himself as somebody who is mentally well. You and I can agree or disagree on that,” Roginsky said.
Despite Roginsky’s claims about Trump’s mental state, it was Biden who captured attention for his mental struggles. Bob Woodward said in his book “War” how concerns over Biden’s mental acuity began surfacing among affluent donors during fundraising events as early as June 2023.
This was nearly a year before Biden displayed difficulties in forming coherent sentences at a nationally-televised debate against Trump. Following this debate, Biden was replaced as the presidential candidate by Vice President Kamala Harris, who has consistently evaded questions about what she knew of Biden’s cognitive problems.
