im comin home, jack
I wonder what's going on there. Dementia or a minor stroke like a TIA?
In the UK there was a load of medical PSAs about immediately getting someone exhibiting signs of a Stroke (which ofc includes TIA) to hospital coz every second wasted is potentially lifechanging/fatal.
Meanwhile, every time one of these episodes happens to one of your legislative ghouls everyone just sorta stares at them until it subsides, which is a particularly funny way to deal with the ageing politician epidemic i guess.
Three hours from the first symptom was my guideline when I worked in paramedicine. Within that we could push TPA, a drug that dissolves every blood clot in the body. After three hours the risk of causing a second stroke outweighed the benefits of stopping the one that has already done its damage.
My vote is the latter, or maybe some kind of cardiac arrythmia that spooked him into "fight flight or freeze" mode.

probably 1/5 of young people have these by now 
I’m thinking TIA, or a possible full stroke due to the tongue fasciculations.
Holy shit that was uncomfortable to watch
I had to stop at ~0:30. Yikes.
