Former President Donald Trump praised a violent dead gangster and the wrong Republican at a campaign rally this weekend, spurring concerns of cognitive decline.

Trump told North Carolina voters Sunday evening, just two days before the upcoming presidential election that could return him to the White House, that he thought Al Capone was “lovely” and their senatorial candidate was a superior choice.

“You have one of the best of all right here, David McCormick,” Trump said. “Great guy.”

The problem with this comment was pointed out by Democratic pollster and strategist Matt McDermott.

“Yikes,” wrote McDermott. “Trump, at a rally in North Carolina, shouts out David McCormick — who’s running for Senate in Pennsylvania. He seems to really be struggling mentally.”

McCormick is indeed the conservative candidate running in Pennsylvania against incumbent Sen. Bob Casey, a Democrat.

North Carolina senators Thom Tillis and Ted Budd, both Republicans, are not up for reelection this year.

The North Carolina race garnering national attention is that of conservative gubernatorial candidate Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson (R), who was linked to pro-Nazi and pro-slavery comments on a porn site by CNN.

The Hill opinion writer Mary Anna Mancuso said Sunday McDermott’s concerns were also her own.

“Trump’s cognitive decline seems to be worsening,” Mancuso wrote on X. “Even more concerning is his choice of a black and gold MAGA hat—a subtle but unmistakable nod to the Proud Boys.”
