    I would love to hear an educated medical opinion on what could be happening. I suspected the first one was a stroke but since it happened twice I have no idea what could be going on.

        I wonder if there are blood clots from the concussion breaking loose. That would explain the similar symptoms across two strokes, though it depends on where the concussion was.

      Neither educated nor medical, but the first one that was televised looked quite like an absence seizure, only a bit longer.

      His staff for that one seemed to handle it fairly smoothly. Couldn’t decide if their reactions indicated familiarity with such episodes happening to him, or just decades of media training to glide through the unexpected.
