    “I thought he would talk longer,” she said. “However, I still will vote for him. I think he’s a very good candidate. … The concert was great.”

    Apparently watching someone stand on stage for 30 minutes while recorded music plays is…a concert?

      It’s more of a wedding party where the bride’s new brother in law shows up to the reception completely wasted while calling out random songs and the DJ placates him as the family huddles in the prep room trying to figure out what to do with him.

      I think he is a very good candidate… He cares only about himself, and so he lies and cheats. He says he grabs women by the pussy, I like that.

      That woman, apparently.

    Part of his staff is pushing him him to be on stage, while the other half is trying to keep him from saying anything. Trump himself would rather be golfing. This is what you get from a tired old man, and that’s how it’d work if he was in office too.

    Reignites?

    If America hasn’t figured this one out yet, Turnip isn’t the one with a problem with their mental acuity.

    I love the immediate fact checking.

    “She is dying to see my Cholesterol (which is 180!), I have already provided them, many times, including quite recently, and they were flawless,” Trump wrote at 12:43 a.m. Tuesday.

    Trump has not released his medical records while running for president this cycle.

    The Chief Fire Officer has just informed us that questions about Trump’s mental acuity continue to be a Five Alarm Fire after ten years of steady burning. Questions about Trump’s mental acuity are currently being compared to the Centralia, Pennsylvania Mine Fires.


    “Reignites” my ass. These flames never went out. It’s been a steady news diet of someone who was already a mentally deficient fucking freak on a downward spiral into dementia.

      I am fairly certain most if not all of the music he used he has been told to not use.

    We may have our October Surprise right here, kids. It’s getting BAD. I think at this point a vote for tRump would effectively be a vote for JD Vance. I’ve heard drunks sound less slurred.

      That has been the case since they chose Vance as a running mate. It was always clear they chose someone who isn’t going to be afraid to backstab Trump by 25th amendmenting his ass and taking over the Presidency to roll out Project 2025.

    “Reignites” meaning newspapers cannot paraphrase what he did so that he looks sane this time. Dementia and a full diaper. He is declining fast.
