I’m watching Trump, who was MIA for a week, giving a speech in England.
Contrary to popular reports of his demise, he is his usual “charming” self. Very aware and on track across reporters questions.
He may have had some golf outings or medical appointments last week, but this guy does not have dementia and looks in good health.
The left has grossly misrepresented and under estimated the enemy. Be very careful at grasping for straws and wishful thinking in this environment. The left needs to organize and plan for a strong administration across four years. Hate seems to be a fountain of youth for people of a certain constitution. Look at Kissinger. Learn from history. Don’t be complacent.
but this guy … looks in good health.
I’m lost for words. Either you desperately want to believe it, or you missed the appointment at the optician, or we need to redefine healthy.
If you ask certain (grossly) overweight people that is exactly what they would say.
This man, with his lifestyle is doing fine well into his 70s.
Do with those two comments what you will
He had a stroke on TV on 9/11. He wears diapers because his rectum is shot. Rumors swirl he has congestive heart failure and Vance waits.
That’s not the speech or the creepy grandpa I watched on television. Maybe you watched the fox news edit with A.I. enhancement.
Good call on the AI video (that wasn’t this speech FWIW) - yes that was messed up. Maybe he did have a mini stroke, but he looks fine today.
Just saying guys, I think you are at the risk of deluding yourself with wishful thinking.
Irrespective of that man’s Big Mac count.
Just do not be complacent - that’s my ask to you
Nope. I was not talking about a week ago. I was referring to watching him embarrass himself and our country on foreign soil yesterday. I didn’t see anything even passable as fine in his cosplay as a human being.
What about the face drooping? Strokes don’t inspire confidence in health.
Let’s not act like his words are proper English either. I’ve never seen him speak logically. It’s always a slurry of semi (sometimes not) related clauses that together don’t say anything significant.
This aids with recall if you don’t need to remember exact facts (remember that biggly 300 million number) and it’s absolutely a sign someone is masking mental decline. It doesn’t mean he has dementia, but the effectual difference on a bad day is meaningless at a state event.
Does this look like a sane, healthy man?
Assuming this guy is healthy is being complacent.
Wake up, babe, new cope just dropped.
Really doesn’t matter his health status. We learned that with Biden. It doesn’t matter others will just do the work just like with Biden.
As someone who knows multiple older people who had dementia… this is not it.
Maybe some regular “old brain” stuff but the man is his usual riffing off-the-cuff self.
Sorry guys. Suggest you watch a live clip of him taking questions - not just whatever MSNBC has edited.
His standard inarticulate word salad evincing an incurious mind, not attributable to any particular mental decline. Got it.
Dude is actually decent “enough” at public speaking. He just spouts garbage.
As someone who does it that is a professional view
Likewise saying he has dementia is borderline offensive if you have been in that context. And his style of speech and content says nothing to that effect
This was ten years ago.
? And… I’m not saying he is eloquent orator who gives a good TED talk
Just that as someone giving speeches and answering questions when he stays on script and doesn’t have his flights of fancy (which still frankly play well to _his _ crowd) he has decent enough delivery
If not too painful watch him live sometime. He’s an idiot and full of garbage but he can hit his lines well enough to stay on stage with other professional politicians. Not sure if you realize that itself is a marker of some level of skill
Frankly stupid narcissists tend to be among the best at it
