Too old and the dementia is hitting him hard. People are saying it is syphilis.
A lot of very smart people?
He has the best syphilis, a smart doctor told him it’s the best syphilis he ever seen.
Tears in the doctors eyes as they commented on jos perfect the syphilis is.
It’s was big guy, that doctor. Big one. Crying and he says. He says to me crying. It’s syphiless. No, I said! I told him. He’s crying. We got the most syphi! We’re not syphiless! We’re bringing syphi back for that doctor. Big doctor crying.
They said no one has ever seen this kind of syphiless before. Tears rolling down his face and he says, “Sir…
Many such cases
It’s syphilis, everybody says so… It’s bad… Very bad…
It’s the best… the best syphilis anyone’s EVER had… my doctors…you know doctors say I’ve got great syphilis
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
On bidens worse day he has always made more sense and been more cognizant than Trump.
.ml
Yup.
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
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?
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.
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
Agreed! There’s LITERALLY No Correlation between Biden dropping out and Democrats talking about his Mental Capacity. LITERALLY no Correlation!
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
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.
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.
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 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.
One day he’s just going to take his pants and shirt off on stage 😞
And his followers will go nude in public to show their support.
Why would you put that DISGUSTING image in my head‽
What about his diaper?
He can’t get his diaper or shoes off without his daughter’s help.
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:
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.
Is it just me, or does he seem to be a bit thinner? Ordinarily I would say that is a good sign for his health, but coupled with this obvious mental decline I wonder if he has really bad PTSD and isn’t eating or sleeping well.
I would have some sympathy for him as a human. Except, you know, he wouldn’t have any for me.
I mean he could stand to lose some weight?
His hair looks a lot more like normal hair these days, which means he’s yielding to the advice of people around him. Which in his case means he’s losing his goddam mind.
Might be even simpler - the elderly can decline very quickly mentally and also physically, and that may he what we’re seeing with here.
I thought he was on Ozempic?
I wonder if he has really bad PTSD
May his suffering be proportional to that which he’s caused.
Sudden weight loss at that age can actually be a sign of poor health as the body starts to fail and can’t store as much fat. I’d say that’s much more likely than him growing a conscience.
Maybe he’s just dialed up his coke rations.
It’s pretty well documented that Trump is a teetotler. He is the way he is without the help of any mood or mind altering substances.
Maybe no alcohol, but I find cocaine very plausible. A dude named Noel Casler claimed so on podcasts (even went so far to claim that decades long abuse led to him needing diapers), but who knows.
Yeah, and the campaign promo photo where you can see that his side table drawer is packed full of “the good” Sudafed.
He is certainly someone who was deeply and irreparably harmed by his even more evil father who drove Donnie’s older brother to suicide. Trump is an example of how people who have everything can still suffer.
What is sad about Boomers in general and less so for Gen X/older millennials is not being able to stop the cycle of pain and let them be the last generation to be traumatized by their own family.
I went back to college (I am an older millennial) and it was insane to me the difference in how kids ten years younger than me were raised. Just talking with them and how they missed the whole “it’s the 80’s, fuck dem kids” parenting style.
Kids being loud? Beat them within an inch of their life. Kid needs help with school? Fuck you, asshole kid. I have TV to watch. Going to the store? Lock these asshole kids in your watertight Buick in the middle of the summer for some reason (I still don’t understand this at all).
Then I talk to younger kids who just went along with their parents to the store. It is incredible to me how truly awful Boomer parents were at being parents.
Yep. It’s helpful to recall that baby boomer parents were often suffering ptsd from various wars and nobody got help. Now you have people practicing gentle parenting.
I love my parents but they were truly terrible parents. In it for themselves and duck how the kids feel.
Not that many of them went to Vietnam. I was deployed twice myself and don’t take it out on my kids. I can see them having more generational trauma from being raised by a collection of parents that were in WW2. Although Boomers are somehow worse parents than the people who taught the Nazis.
The correction to gentle parenting is (my opinion) way too far. Treating kids like coherent individuals that can be reasoned with like an episode of Bluey is ridiculous. Lots of parents around my age tried and failed, then everyone goes off in their corners and latches onto an electronic device.
This might just be a really funny debate…
lets not forget, he is VERY old

He’s talking like my grandpa did a few weeks before he dropped dead, so fingers crossed I guess
People with access to healthcare can hang on while deteriorating well beyond where he is over the course of many years.
I want to see him in jail. Death is too good for him.
Same but I’ll take what I can get.
It may not be his just desserts but it may give us just enough of a bump from am electoral point of view to keep Vance the fuck away from power. Do not prioritize satisfaction over effective.
LoL you have TDS! But BIDEN has DIMENTIA while TRUMP is playing 5D Chess!
