I think the real tipping point for me was the day he had a press conference and started looking up at the sky and shouting that he was the chosen one. It seemed like he genuinely believed it and seriously expected god to come down from the heavens to praise him.
He what now
Eh, that just looks like his regular stupid theatrics to me
Yeah, remember when he thought it would be great to make fun of a disabled reporter in the 2016 campaign? That didn’t hurt him, nor have the thousands of other things that would be disqualifying for anyone else.
Yes it’s true that mainstream media has done a horrible job of handling his particular brand of terribleness, but it’s not like the horrible things he said didn’t hurt him. He lost in 2020, he’s probably going to lose next month, he’s lost in court multiple times, he’s a convicted felon, the things he says do hurt him. But it takes a long time, of course because of bad reporting, but also because he was or is absurdly wealthy.
Yep, it’s absolutely insane. It has been now for 9 years. Insane.
Weird. I thought he was totally sane in 2016. Stop voting for this weirdo that wants to fuck his daughter. Yes, his crimes are horrible, but the worst part about him is that he is so annoying.
I thought he was totally sane in 2016
That’s because you didn’t know about him. He’s been pretty much a perv, crook and liar all his life.
I fully assumed dude was being sarcastic.
Nah, dawg. I’m bigly serious.
When I was a kid in the nineties, I had a book of urban legends. One of them was about a couple who happened to encounter him in a broken down car and help him out, only to find out he had later anonymously paid off their mortgage. It’s interesting sometimes to reflect on that story.
I’ve heard the same story about Bill Gates
I heard a story about Bill Gates on a private plane to the Caribbean.
I heard that one about Trump too
Hold on a sec, - just - hold up. You’re telling me, okay, the guy who can’t finish a thought at all, who lies all the time as a conversational style, who wears botched paint on his face with little raccoon cutouts for his beady, cloudy eyes, with his wet hair that goes to the middle of his back all whipped up like cotton candy, in a huge plastic girdle that makes him stand like the front-half of a centaur, with lifts in his shoes, and a high, whiny, grating voice with the jacking-off-two-giants-dance . . . .
You’re telling me he’s worse than the 2016 version? Cause all that’s the same.
Nailed it
he’s louder.
and smellier.
I feel like I’ve seen this headline (and slight variants) multiple times in the past few weeks. It’s almost a Gish Gallop statement, because where do you begin?
It implies that he had a grip 4/8 years ago.
It implies that he ever had a grip.
It implies that his public statements are weirder now than before, when they’ve always been bizarre.
It implies that Donald Trump’s policy positions are peculiar to him, when really he’s basically reflecting what Republicans have been trying to push on us for decades.
No, he’s never had a grip, but there’s been a noticeable change since even 2016. As there was a noticeable change to 16 from ten years prior. He’s just gradually declining. It means nothing for his base that they are voting for a Vance succession, apparently.
He’s eating the dogs
He’s eating the cats
He’s dripping the Syphilis from his tiny mushroom 🍄 peen
He’s emboldened by his Syphilis induced dementia
Been saying for a couple of years that he went past a tipping point. Not sure when I noticed, 2021 or 2022? Not being funny, but I bet he won’t be able to speak in public sometime in the next 2 years.
There was a great article where experts analyzed his speech patterns and it was eye opening.
Found it!
Alas, nevermind. :(
I wanted to read it, so here’s the archived version. Thanks for sharing!
His cognitive decline might mean that should he win the election he could be less able to direct all his spite into action than during his 1st term. So his decline may be less scary than the writer thinks.
Yeah, probably not. When the Gipper lost his jellybeans, that was seen as a positive because he was easier to control/manipulate.
it is a good thing there are definitely not going to be any other assholes around him to help with it, then…
Let him drag the entire GOP to hell with him.
If you’re young…
Never, never, ever let Republicans forget this is who they are. If they try to claim less government or family values ever again, the response is Donald Trump.
Problem is he may take the USA down with him
Oh no.
Are you suggesting it’s not a big deal if the usa becomes a fascist country?
More than it currently is or…? I’m suggesting that it is not a big deal if the USA does anything. Fascist, slightly less fascist; very few people care.
Hey, you know how last time it took America, the British Empire, and the Soviet Union to beat fascism?
What, just now?
“grip” wasn’t what drew republicans to trump in the first place, it was the authoritarian racism, and he’s still got plenty of that, so they’re going to support him again, because republicans realized that they could never win on their arguments in a secular egalitarian democracy, which is why they’ve sought to tear it asunder since the civil rights act, with the southern strategy in 1966. trump isn’t a symptom, maga was always the goal.
That happened well before his first presidential run.
He has been mildly incoherent for a couple of decades. In the past most of his apparent dithering can be attributed to figuring out how to say something repugnant or false without becoming legally liable. As his mind decays this meandering style of speech has become untethered. He can’t remember the complicated web of lies anymore. I wonder how much self awareness he truly has.

If you have nothing to add to the conversation then shut the fuck up. You’re annoying enough as is, but when you literally have no reason to post, then don’t fucking post!
Bad bot
Careful, the bot fanbois will come to tell you to block it and then your comment will be deleted anyway
You really should just block it though?
It’s easy. It’s wild to me that people just leave this feature on the table.
Careful, the rage apologists will come along and defend screaming at computer code.
Lol why are you so mad at media bias bot?
I’m just mad that they post even when they don’t have any contribution whatsoever.
Fuckin’ robots.
