Is Trump confused?

Ah…so that explains it. :bulb: Where do the Jewish space lasers figure in?

I think you may be running into a trans-Atlantic distinction.

Me too. Al also say fish mong-er and whore mong-er and veg-e-tab-uhl mong-er.

Probably.

I posted in either this thread or one of the many others that Snopes has debunked that one. If you Google it you can see it. That’s one of the few times he didn’t fuck up.

Eta:I’m on my phone or I’d link.

Okay, he didn’t get his wife’s name wrong. But he is a poor communicator. It wasn’t at all clear what he was talking about. Still a gaffe, IMHO.

So Trump didn’t even acknowledge his wife Melania in that speech. What an asshole! What a maroon! What a shitgibbon, dare I say! :wink:

‘TRUMP’S COGNITIVE DECLINE’ seems to be the Theme of the Day over at RawStory today. They have 5 articles about it prominently featured on their home page:

Raw Story is useful as a news aggregate (and to summarize tweets and videos) but the site is very heavy of propaganda tactics.

Yeah, I know-- RS aggregates news from more reputable sources and slaps sensational headlines on their stories. But I like to visit whenever I need some trump schadenfreude. I was just struck by the sheer volume of stories they featured this morning breathlessly proclaiming trump’s mental decline. Hopefully more of this starts to show up in more mainstream news sources, similar to the way constant right wing reporting of Biden’s so-called mental decline seems to have permeated mainstream news coverage. I mean, RS is not wrong on this-- there’s a much stronger case to be made for trump’s mental decline than Biden’s.

It’s like a left wing Drudge Report.

Even though I align with them politically (or maybe especially because I do and am tempted toward credulity), I take their stories with a grain of salt.


… and that’s the raw story!

Trump flip flops on House TikTok ban, pulling rug from under Republican allies

Thing is, I don’t think he is confused. I think he is acting in his self-interest.

I don’t think anyone is suggesting that is a product of his senility. I wouldn’t rule out the possibility its the product of him just receiving almost 100M bucks from persons unknown so he can hold off E Jean Carroll from seizing his stuff for a while. Though to be honest of all the possible actors the potential future POTUS is in hoc to, a tech company with close ties to the autocratic Chinese Regime is possibly the best case IMO.

I wouldn’t even go that far. It’s got to be this:

Trump does not let grudges go easily, if ever.

Of course he is.

Remember back in 2016 when Loser Donald heard that Hillary Clinton had used a software app called “BleachBit” and he thought she literally poured bleach on her hard drive?

He apparently now thinks it’s “an acid that will destroy everything within ten miles”.

I’m sorry, but you should have posted this in the “what we have learned about Covid” thread. Or not.

…this doesn’t have anything to do with covid.

Along with a bit of this (quote from PhillyGuy’s link)

which has won widespread bipartisan support. And President Biden last week came out in support of the measure.

If the Dems are in favor of it he’s against it.

And then there’s this quote

“They released Hillary Clinton,” he said, suggesting the former Secretary of State wasn’t criminally charged

Saying “released” means he thought she was in custody at some point. Sorry, Trump, but not even you ever “Locked her up”.
