Coming from you, who I consider to be an objective fellow most of the time... that resonates.

Personally, I don't think he's on a serious slide. Why? Because that would entail him having been "all that" to begin with.

"Serious slide" implies having reached great heights.

To me, it's mostly smoke and mirrors, so no... no "serious slide" IMO.
