    Trump is 78 and barely coherent. Where's everyone who questioned Biden's age and fitness?




    Major mainstream news outlets are routinely taking his incoherent, highly abnormal rants and selectively quoting from them to emphasize lines that, in isolation, might sound coherent or normal,
    thus giving a misleading impression of the whole for people who didn’t read or watch the entire thing.

    eg include, but not limited to:
    • CNN / NYT / WaPo reporting on
      • Trump pledge to tap Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to help make health policy, without any mentioning of RFKJ's is an anti-vacer and conspiracy theorist
      • Trump's proposed Elon Musk–led “efficiency commission”, without any mentioning of GAO and like kind efficiency agencies.
      • Trump's incherent word salad, when asked about his policy on child care,
        • “It’s a very important issue. But I think when you talk about the kind of numbers that I’m talking about, that – because, look, child care is child care. It’s – couldn’t – you know, it’s something – you have to have it. In this country, you have to have it. But when you talk about those numbers compared to the kind of numbers that I’m talking about by taxing foreign nations at levels that they’re not used to, but they’ll get used to it very quickly – and it’s not going to stop them from doing business with us but they’ll have a very substantial tax when they send product into our country. Those numbers are so much bigger than any numbers that we’re talking about, including child care. That – it’s going to take care – we’re going to have – I – I look forward to having no deficits within a fairly short period of time, coupled with the reductions that I told you about on waste and fraud and all of the other things that are going on in our country.”
          • lots of words put together that, on the whole, say nothing!!!
    By reframing Trump’s incoherent, inaccurate ramblings as bland political copy, journalists are carrying water for the 78-yr old dementia Don.

    Everyone questioning Biden's sanity is too busy licking Trump's proverbial boots to talk.

    latest eg of the 78-yr old dotard's incoherence.

    “We’re going to have great judges, conservative, all picked by the Federalist Society,” Trump promised during his first campaign in 2016. It was the result of a meeting in March 2016 with Leonard Leo, then the executive vice president of the Federalist Society, a conservative organization that advocates for legal originalism.

    True to his promise, Trump would go on to consult Leo for judicial nominations, including his three Supreme Court picks.

    But on Thursday, Trump had changed his tune, https://time.com/7289940/trump-federalist-society-leonard-leo-sleazebag-bad-advice-judges-tariffs/, calling Leo a "sleazebag" and someone who hates America

    Trump’s rant came after a federal three-judge panel ruled that he didn’t have the authority to impose most of the tariffs he’d announced so far in his second term, a key part of his economic agenda and promise to bring manufacturing jobs back to America.

    I will say one thing, well 2 things.
    Trump is in front of the cameras almost every day.
    Regardless of what anybody sees. If he truly cognitively falls off a cliff it will be in real time.

    The previous president had a group of handlers around him to specifically cover for him and intentionally lie to ALL OF US until the deception was exposed on that fateful debate evening.

    Pick your poison a sexual predator and grifter or an entire cabal of people that conspired to mislead the entire country.

    How did we get to this place in time.

    We are in a
    Bigot Based Kakistocracy

    IMO, The President (aka The Asset) suffers from Syphilitic Dementia

    I see they stopped keeping a record of his speeches etc on the White House Website.

    His true crazy comes out when he isn't reading scripted speeches, and when he rambles his thoughts on his website without his "handlers" being able to rein him in or steer him back onto the wanted script.

    I will say one thing (one thing only, Vasilli)

    The TV media of all stripes LOVES Trump, he is walking, talking, tweeting, babbling chum for eyeballs, and they're struggling to get them

    This past week....

    "When could the administration resume interviews for foreign students visa?" the reporter asked, to which Trump replied, "On what?" The reporter responded, "Foreign student visas," to which he followed-up, "For the French?" She replied, "All the foreign students.”

    Again, Trump asked another clarifying question, getting seemingly agitated, “What are you referring-- foreign visas for what? Are you talking about for colleges?” She confirmed yes. :confused:

    Trump's Truth Social needs an intro from the old tv show.....

    It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears, and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call, The Twilight Zone. Truth Social.

    Q: Have you uncovered evidence that anything was signed without Biden's knowledge?

    TRUMP: I don't think Biden would know

    Q: I'm asking if you've uncovered any information

    TRUMP: No. But I've uncovered the human mind. I was in a debate with the human mind.
