He's both, actually. His mind is clearly crumbling, as evidenced by his inability to stay on any topic for more than ten seconds and his rambling stream-of-consciousness blather. Furthermore, he appears to have completely lost whatever emotional control he once had, as he goes ballistic twenty times a day.
But his salient feature is still his stupidity. And as Mark said, he's the worst kind of dumb--he thinks he's smart. A dumb leader can still be OK if he realizes that he's dumb--he won't try to take actions in areas where he knows nothing--instead, he delegates responsibility. Trump handling the US economy is like a baboon flying an airliner.
As a recent example, Dubya was a moron--but he knew he was a moron. So he handed everything off to his Cabinet and aides and spent the years after 9/11 staring at the Oval Office wall and eating Cheetos.
The aggravating factor is that he's surrounded himself with incompetent yes-men who will NEVER tell him he's wrong and his policies are dumb.
Hey, give me credit for calling him the worst kind of dumb please!
