A former CNN anchor on Tuesday slammed President Donald Trump's inner circle, saying they are "too scared" to face his cognitive decline and that "the man has lost it."

On his podcast, former CNN anchor Don Lemon pointed to the 79-year-old president's "obvious" decline amid the country's current troubles and responded to the president's announcement Monday that he took a cognitive test at Walter Reed Medical Center, The Daily Beast reports. The test Trump referred to is a cognitive evaluation to screen for dementia called the Montreal Cognitive Assessment.

"You ever look at someone and see that they ain’t all there, right?” Lemon said. “They ain’t all there anymore. But everybody around them is too scared to say it out loud. That’s where we are with Donald Trump.”

He also pointed to Trump's visit to Japan, where he rambled in a speech to U.S. Navy members, confusing how water works and saying that he doesn't like "good-looking people."

“The man brags about remembering five words and the crowd claps like seals,” Lemon said, adding, "the man has lost it."

Lemon compared Trump to an “uncle who gets a little too lit” at the family cookout after Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi had to lead the president around a room.

“Everybody around Trump knows what’s happening,” Lemon added. “They see the rambling. They see the confusion. They see the blank looks. He’s not who he was. All this concern about [Joe] Biden, what about Trump now? But instead of pulling him aside, they keep putting him out there. That’s not loyalty. That’s using somebody."

He called out the Republican Party for ignoring the obvious — and not telling Americans the truth.

“The Republican Party? They’re holding his hand through it," Lemon said. "They’re like the Japanese Prime Minister guiding him through. But they’re pretending that he’s sharp, pretending that he’s fit, because the truth scares them. So they’d rather lie to the country than admit that it’s over.”
