Many people are saying he should drop out. The Republicans should put together a unity ticket instead to reach out and show they can heal the nation by putting two Democrats on their ticket as President and VP.
“The two-party system sucks”
“Wait, that’s not what I wanted!”
Lol
Lol, a unity Republican ticket? What would that even look like? Two Dems would immediately lose the MAGA base and be dead on launch. Trump would also launch a third party campaign!
The “liberal media” and many among the Enlightened Centrists ™ often pose this kind of scenario for the Democratic Party - but never for the Republican Party. I’m just suggesting that the Republicans should take this notion up and do it even one better. For the unity. For extra credit, they could put in Democratic Leaders and start passing Democratic bills and seating Democratic justices even when the R’s are in the majority. Again: unity.
If they listen to you, they will lose. But that’s a good thing, so I hope you’re right. Unlikely, but the worse Trump’s loss the better.
His speech is getting worse— but he has almost perfected the Putin/Un double cock air jerkoff dance

There better be a huge (UUGE) focus on his decline after the debate. That’s the time to put an emphasis on it - right after millions of people see it during the debate.
The press are going to be nitpicking Harris’ earrings or the color of her blouse or something. Major news outlets are never going to treat Trump like Biden,
I hope they give him coke or amphetamines before the debate to try perking him up.
I also hope it causes him to incessantly freak out about how much he’s shitting himself
Or a OD and heart attack.
She destroyed the city of San Francisco, it’s — and I own a big building there — it’s no — I shouldn’t talk about this but that’s OK I don’t give a damn because this is what I’m doing. I should say it’s the finest city in the world — sell and get the hell out of there, right? But I can’t do that. I don’t care, you know? I lost billions of dollars, billions of dollars. You know, somebody said, ‘What do you think you lost?’ I said, ‘Probably two, three billion. That’s OK, I don’t care.’ They say, ‘You think you’d do it again?’ And that’s the least of it. Nobody. They always say, I don’t know if you know. Lincoln was horribly treated. Uh, Jefferson was pretty horribly. Andrew Jackson they say was the worst of all, that he was treated worse than any other president. I said, ‘Do that study again, because I think there’s nobody close to Trump.’ I even got shot! And who the hell knows where that came from, right?
Same as it ever was
Theodore Roosevelt got shot in fucking lung and still finished his speech. Trump barely or maybe it was glass who knows (literally two weeks later was completely healed) yet got wisk away by four agents then wore a tampon on his ear.
Fuck weird Trump and sounds like he has dementia.
Get your facts straight. It was a menstrual pad, not a tampon.
I doubt Trump knows the difference
So what happened to San Francisco?
I’m pretty sure T**** just watched the last half of Godzilla (2014) and thought it was a documentary. Obviously it’s Harris’ fault that Godzilla and the MUTOs destroyed SF. I’m surprised he didn’t mention the nuke
Destroyed, so just completely and totally demolished.
F
Just like Seattle
Just like Portland. Burned right to the ground. Never mind all the intact buildings and people living there still. That’s just a liberal hoax.

I spelled a dirty word!

3 billion Andrew Jackson’s
By the end I completely forgot he was talking about San Francisco, and I think that is the point.
He probably did too
Godzilla
This is way worse than it ever was.
It’s more, yes, but no one should be surprised.
Why do people keep saying this?! Sure, he babbled some when he ran in 2015, but at you could hear the words and insert your own meaning. We can’t even pretend to parse anything out of this speech. Hell, his own supporters are walking out on his rallies.
If your grandpa was living alone and conversing with you like this, you would quietly be contemplating a rest home in his very near future. People this far gone can no longer live alone.
Go back to the 80s and 00s and have a listen. Really. Watch a video or three. Doesn’t matter if you agree with what he was saying, his speech was clear, on target.
Can’t say when I noticed the sharp decline, hard to spot, a boiled frog thing. 2019 I think? Compared to then, the man has fallen off a cliff.
He was a demented sociopathic narcissist in 2016, anyone could have, and did see it, and say it then.
Unfortunately, republiQans are a cult in every literal sense that matters. trump only needs to stay alive and they’ll vote for him.
The fact that he’s worse than ever will be borne by them as a secret shame; no one will talk about it, it makes everyone in the cult uncomfortable, and it will not deter them in the slightest.
It’s 2024 and I think as Americans we still don’t have consensus on how unfathomably broken the republiQans have made politics. It’s virtually unrecognizable from the viewpoint of someone even in the 60’s.
He was a demented sociopathic narcissist in 2016
Can’t say much for his supporters either.
I don’t see anything different about his rambling, tbh. I think the only notable difference is him working out nicknames while in front of an audience instead of ahead of time.
His talking points aren’t landing, so he’s fishing around for something that gets the reaction he’s looking for.
I think he would have done the same if “build a wall and make Mexico pay for it” was met with confusion.
He was always this incoherent, but he had “better” slogans to fall back on.
I’d say it’s probably more due to him alienating most of his former team, and then surrounding himself with more incompetent yes men, than cognitive decline. His baseline of cognitive capacity wasn’t high in the first place.
Even as late as the 2016 RNC debates he was still speaking clearly, responding to his opponents, and occasionally making a coherent point.
I mean Jackson and Lincoln both got shot, at least Jackson wasn’t a bitch about it.
Yeah, and Lincoln had the audacity to die when he got shot. Not very presidential, if you ask me.
I like presidents who don’t die when they get shot.
Nah, he’s definitely worse now.
It’s just he gets worse at about the same speed we get used to it.
So he’s constantly lowering the bar, and if “not trump” is enough, that means everyone else’s bar constantly gets lowered as well.
If Dem voter’s only standard is not being trump, we end up with people who will take money from anyone
It’s pretty much the reason AIPAC is so blatantly buying primary elections these days. They used to hide it, now it’s literally “fuck you money” against anyone that calls them out for genocide.
Speaking of rambling…
Lol
🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️
i pity the people who have to sit through that shit so i can read it because i refuse to listen to him speak
I’m incapable of listening to the gasbag. Even his written (transcribed) speech I can only skim.
His rambling nonsense & lie fueled non sequiturs are too exhausting to take in for my little cat Lady brain (I’m just a neighborhood cat enabler (food, nip, water) & enthusiast, but I’ll happily wear Vance’s scorn label).
Still, I’m grateful, like you, for the people patient enough to listen to & transcribe that Cockwomble’s stories.
No shit, the dude is suffering serious cognitive decline and we’ve ignored it the last 6 years.
When things start very low and then decline further it’s harder to notice. I think he is called an ass-emtote.
We haven’t ignored it.
His cult did.
Like Democrats did Biden’s
I’m not USian, but I’ve seen online Democrats complaining about Biden as often, if not more, than Republicans.
Democrats defended him tooth and nail. They spit out venomous accusations at anyone critical of him. They buried their head in the sand over the last several years about his cognitive decline by demanding it was a speech impediment, which was NEVER present in any of his speeches prior to 2008
Democrats defended him tooth and nail.
‘Democrats’ aren’t a monolith, there was a constant desire for change among many democratic supporters. I’m Canadian and even up here there was a desire to replace him with someone better.
Speaking about wanting change and then still voting for them when the time came makes that speech irrelevant. If they never hold their politicians accountable things will never get better.
Speaking about wanting change and then still voting for them when the time came makes that speech irrelevant.
I think you missed my country of origin there, bud.
Also you’re just bait and switching here, your original point was that ‘the democrats’ fought for him tooth and nail, and yet the entire time people from all over the tent of the Left were demanding he be replaced and then… he was.
You’re embarrassing yourself here, just take the L and focus back on using whataboutism anytime someone chooses to back a right-of-centre candidate over a fascist one.
Biden stepped down, what do you want at this point? This article is about Trump’s mental decline, you know - the other senile old guy who is still running for president.
Well, there are millions of them, so both things can be true. MY personal experience is seeing them criticizing more than defending.
Criticizing is irrelevant when they won’t hold them accountable. For all intents Biden could have said ‘I could kill 30,000 Palestinian children and not lose a single voter.’
If he wasn’t losing voters, why was he behind Trump in the polls?
.ml
Yup.
Agreed! There’s LITERALLY No Correlation between Biden dropping out and Democrats talking about his Mental Capacity. LITERALLY no Correlation!
On bidens worse day he has always made more sense and been more cognizant than Trump.
Democrats complaining about it are the reason Biden dropped out. Weak whataboutism
Biden dropped out because the DONOR class demanded it with threats of withholding money if he didn’t. The average voter had zero impact on that decision.
Yeah probably part of it. Donors who are Democrat, who knew the majority of Democrat voters didn’t want Biden. Democrats were calling for Biden to step down, while we aren’t seeing the same level of demand from the Republicans for Trump to step down due to declining mental health
He was never in remotely good mental health, but he’s gone from “in the deep end of a pool, and he can’t swim” to “In the middle of the Pacific Ocean (in an electric boat, and there’s a shark nearby)” with how quickly he’s declining
GOP will straight up Weekend at Bernie’s on him to get him into office, at this point.
It’s the office they want, not him. He’ll be removed after regardless. If America lets them.
I was thinking more of a Dead Tom situation:
This might just be a really funny debate…
lets not forget, he is VERY old
One day he’s just going to take his pants and shirt off on stage 😞
What about his diaper?
He can’t get his diaper or shoes off without his daughter’s help.
And his followers will go nude in public to show their support.
Why would you put that DISGUSTING image in my head‽
Lets see how this works out on the 10th. It would be funny to see him basically sink on life TV.
As for me this spectacle is in the middle of the night, I expect the gag reel from the debate on breakfast TV.
He has always told rambling, near-incoherent stories. He has always lied profusely.
What’s new is how hes slurring his words, and how lethargic he is. It was especially noticable in his recent performance on the Lex Fridman show podcast.
The early signs of dementia are unavoidable at this point. It might only be a matter of time until Trump has his “We finally beat Medicare” moment.
He has always told rambling, near-incoherent stories.
No he hasn’t. Here is a link to a Trump campaign speech from his 2000 run. Jump ahead to 6:45 or so in the video to where he starts and listen for just a few minutes. The difference between this speech and his current style of spewing sewer-pipe is starkly astonishing.
Holy shit I did not expect that. A lot of the same mannerisms are there in proto-form but he’s actually talking like a human it’s super weird to see
Like a human but still like a 3rd or maybe 5th grader. Castro was a “murder, killer, and bad guy.” “NYC was in terrible terrible condition.” I know they tell politicians to use speech that’s not too high level but he undershoots it by at least a couple grade levels. He just comes off as dumb as fuck.
At least we saw Melania directly responding to something he said in the crowd before he started speaking. Guess she used to give him the time of day at some point.
Still talking about fucking crowd sizes, too. What a clown.
Ok sure, let me clarify.
Successful presidential candidate Trump has been telling rambling, near-incoherent stories since at least 2015. This type of unfiltered ranting based on reactionary grievances has earned him many followers and many detractors.
Unsuccessful presidential candidate Trump sounded much more like a run of the mill politician back in 2000, before he became a reality tv show star.
Are you telling my this speech from 2016 isn’t the greatest feat of oration of all time?
Look, having nuclear — my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart — you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I’m one of the smartest people anywhere in the world — it’s true! — but when you’re a conservative Republican they try — oh, do they do a number — that’s why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune — you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged — but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me — it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are — nuclear is so powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what’s going to happen and he was right, who would have thought? — but when you look at what’s going on with the four prisoners — now it used to be three, now it’s four — but when it was three and even now, I would have said it’s all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don’t, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years — but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us, this is horrible.
He has already explained this. That is Trump just busting the weave…you know talking about multiple topics at the same time and brilliantly weaving them together at the end. Here the topics are: Nuclear, Nuclear, Dr. John Trump, MIT, Nuclear, Nuclear and Persian negotiating skills. By the end of the 289 word sentence you realize that Trump knows lots about Nuclear becuase his uncle was a professor at MIT and that makes perfect sense becuase knowledge is passed down through breeding so maybe his uncle fucked his mom.
I am thinking someone took his adderall away to avoid a complete mental collapse.
but guys, he’s doing the weave! English professors in his circle, and there are definitely multiple English professors he knows, all say that the way he speaks is brilliant.
I was told to read the transcripts back in 2017-2018, and did. This is what he always sounded like to me. A fucking moron. Now, he’s an older moron. I’m surprised this is news to anyone.
No bar so low he won’t limbo under it.
Thing is, he used to be absurdly stupid but his ramblings seemed coherent enough for some folks…now it seems more incoherent rudderless babble…hes confoundingly unintelligent…just absurdly so
