Trump's dementia riddled speech yesterday

[Airyaman]

OK, maybe it was just really bad lies, but to me, it sounds like some deluded, demented old man who is losing his grip with reality.

Like this one:



Woah, we have 340 million people, but we have 2 billion family farms?

Where are they?

Oh, here's a good one, where Grandpa Ranty tosses out an antisemitic slur from yesteryear:



He did say at one time he only wanted Jews counting his money...

But wait, there's more!

Angry Donald hates you Democrats! The only reason your don't like the BUB is you hate Trump!



Of course, a Trump speech would not be complete unless he talked about some fake poll no one heard of.



Hey Jake Tapper, where you at buddy?

Trump has a long family history of Alzheimers. I believe he is showing signs of it. He’s 79. His own family has stated he’s showing signs…his leg issue, his comments that have nothing to do with the question and rambling…

 

[NuffSaid]

His handlers need to do a better job of reigning him in.
His dementia is real bad.

 

[SNOWFLAKE]

BUT.............................. Joe Biden.

 

[NatMorton]

The folks who willfully ignored the signs of Biden's decline really don't have a leg to stand on here.

And what about MAGA who seem to be experts at spotting dementia.
I suspect they’ll ignore Trumps dementia.

I think the MAGA faithful are no more capable of spotting flaws in their leaders than you are spotting flaws in yours.

In my book, there isn't a great deal of difference between the two of you.

The folks who leapt on Biden for "having dementia" literally every time he stumbled over a word have no leg to stand on lying about Trump's being all there.

1. Throw out a sneer about some Democrat, any Democrat
2. Get called on it
3. "Both sides"

Yes, yes, let's pretend the only signs of Biden's decline were the occasional misspoken word.

 

[NatMorton]

1. Throw out a sneer about some Democrat, any Democrat
2. Get called on it
3. "Both sides"

When you exhibit the same partisan blindness as "MAGA," expect to be called on it.

Did you notice Bidens dementia? If so, when? If not, who are you do pretend to notice it in Trump?

 

[NatMorton]

Is Trump slowing down? Probably, Who wouldn't be at his age. Is he showing signs of dementia? I can't say I've seen them, but I can say he is in remarkably better shape today than Biden was by 2023, and it's not even close. Biden needed help navigating to and from a podium. In meetings where he was on camera he clearly had difficulty paying attention to where he was and what was going on. By 2024 he was failing to recognize famous Hollywood donors and couldn't coherently string together four unscripted sentences.

After suffering the embarrassment of having to defend Biden in those years (i.e., defend the indefensible) I understand why the rabid left is keen to go on the offensive, but sorry, no, Trump, for all his flaws, is in far better shape now than Biden was during his term. Trump is clearly in charge of his faculties and is effectively driving his agenda, for good or ill.

An impaired Biden with a good team would have been 200% better than the shit show we have now.

Sour grapes.

More than any other factor, an impaired Biden is the reason Trump is your President today.

 

[CaughtInThe]

Stephen Miller is the President.

I don't expect you to call out Trump's dementia/mental decline as you did Biden's mental decline.

What does have to do with you ignoring Trump's dementia?

Hey Jake Tapper, where you at buddy?

The speech is just Trump being Trump.

Pretty much standard behavior. Since forever.

..

 

[What if...?]

Not really. I ran across a video made by a supporter that gathered all of the times he hinted at wanting to be president. All in chronological order.

I don’t think the realized they showed his decline progress.

He has always had a rambling speaking style. But when he was younger he usually managed to bring it back around. The difference was clear between one video and the next starting around age 70, the time all humans lose a chunk of our capacity.

Now he just employs a trick: when he loses his train of thought in a speech he yells a catchphrase and uses the applause break to gather his thoughts.

 

[NatMorton]

I don't expect you to call out Trump's dementia/mental decline as you did Biden's mental decline.

I suspect I'm far more objective about Trump than are you.

 

[NatMorton]

What does have to do with you ignoring Trump's dementia?

Nothing. It has more to do with fabricating "Trump's dementia."

I betcha every MAGA cheered, regardless.
Hating half of the US citizenry does stand out.

Fabricating?

LOL.
Read the OP.
Listen to Trump.
2 Billion farms?
Long ago he talked about the airports being taken over during the revolutionary war.
He called Tim Cook Tim Apple.
His verbal gaffes and mispronunciations are getting worse.

Trump shows significant signs of dementia.
Decline in motor skills. Trouble walking down a ramp, tightly gripping railings, his notable leg swing.
Speech difficulties, trouble pronouncing words, simplification of language.
He loses his train of thought regularly.
He is more erratic and impulsive.
All of these are significant signs of dementia.
Trump’s mental decline is obvious.
