and appeared to fabricate stories that could not possibly be true
This is literally Trump’s entire life in one sentence.
Side Story:
During Trump’s time making guest appearances for WWE, he was featured as being the cornerman in a “Battle of the Billionaires” where his representative would fight in a match at Wrestlemania against a man of Vince McMahon’s choosing. Trump was supposed to represent a wrestler named Bobby Lashley at the event. When it came time for Trump to make the live announcement about who he “carefully chose” to represent him at Wrestlemania, Trump famously said his name was “Bobby Lindsey”.
This is not a function of dementia. This is a result of a man so narcissistic and self-obsessed, that he can literally not imagine that other people exist on this planet. It’s not that he doesn’t care about other people. He doesn’t even acknowledge the possibility that others exist.
Is an extreme form of solipsism. If you don’t know what that is, you really should.

Trump could never, ever get names right.

solipsism
It is entirely possible to be a demented narcissist
I like this game.
It wouldn’t be impossible to be a demented, narcissistic, pedo, with incestuous sexual desires and a diaper full of cheeseburgers
Entirely plausible.
That’s just a link to the wikipedia page philosophy of solipsism, what specific extreme form of it are you talking about? Is there a name for it?
Probably something like ‘absolute narcissism’ / ‘absolute solipsism’.
E.g: The other doesn’t exist, other human beings are trees or whatever
Yes. These are also called lies.
