A lot do. Gary Busey was a decent actor, Nick Nolte just screams.

Had no idea Busey had had a bad accident and yes..it can trigger dementia (that is hiding there in the genes) which in turn can cause erratic behavior.
I really believe Trump (with a family history of it) has it and it's showing more and more in his speech patterns.
But I'm not an expert and I do not wish it upon Donald but so many shrinks suggest he has it based on his behavior.
I've been reduced to tears by my best friend who has been diagnosed with dementia after awful phone calls from him when he suddenly devolves into gobbledygook or talks about a past that never happened or makes no sense at times.
There must be untold numbers of elderly men (and women) who have dementia and are accused of actions like Gary Busey.
And the recent reports from actor Bruce Willis'family who say he no longer remembers his acting career or that he was an actor.

I always got him mixed up with Nick Nolte.

Since his horffic accident his behavior has gotten worse over the years, even in interviews in the early 1990s he was erratic.
No doubt he has dementia kicking in and damage to the Sally-prefrontal cortex causes bad impusle control. I would not be surprised he has been done for groping, he has done flashing in the last 15 years or so.
I loved his acting as the main character in Carny and Eye of the Tiger.
