Brad is right. I watched a bit of this and for long stretches I couldn’t figure out what the fuck he was talking about

Motherfucker called McDonalds a “business where people eat inside” like he forgot the word for restaurant. Which is “restaurant.”

It reads a bit like an alien panicking that he's about to be found out.

it's a rollercoaster. my favorite part was when he praises Cohen, then trashes him, in a five second span.

"They want to stop you from having cars with their ridiculous mandates to make it impossible for you to get a car or afford a car. They want to make it very possible for China to build all of our cars." Very coherent, sir!

Nothing but simple single-syllable adjectives. “Very good” “very bad” “perfect” “nasty”. Short, staccato sentences. Repetitive. Over and over. He just sounds like such a horrendously stupid person, to go along with everything else. I’ll never understand it.

I don't really like listening to the guy... If my current understanding is that he's a dangerous moron possibly suffering from dementia, is it going to meaningfully change that?

Will just give you some additional data on how quickly it is progressing (it is getting noticeably worse).

Two Banana Slugs mating, dangling on a string of mucus as they try to stab each other with their penises. Only they're doing it in a pasture, hanging over block of salt put there for the cattle to lick. And we're hoping they both fall and land on the salt.

His brain is so cooked. Circular sentences, forgetting his train of thought, slower than usual cadence like he’s searching for a missing word. He also looks and sounds exhausted. Totally juiceless.

Not bad job standing vertically on the day after his verdict turned him into a limp butthurt-soaked dishrag.

The people putting murderers on our streets would include Gov Abbot and DJT promises to do the same with pardons.
He's insane and very dangerous.

Every time he goes into a “you can’t talk about it, you’re not allowed to talk about it” refrain, I do not know what the fuck he is talking about. Maybe his supporters get it? Is it “cancel culture” grievance? Is he whining about the gag order? It’s always a non-sequitor.

It's meant to be whatever his dipshit fans can relate to, most commonly the thing they said that landed them in Human Resources

when did he start using the word "fascists"?

I watched a bit of yesterday's post court speech and I'm pretty sure he said millions of people were coming into the country from mental hospitals.

Trump was making my brain hurt, but I was furious at MSNBC cutting off his "news" conference early. People needed to see him blabber maniacally and play his imaginary accordion for the full 33 minutes to know that, horrible as listening to his gibberish from 2017-2021 was, he's much, much worse now.

At this point it mostly does not even matter what he says. It incites his followers to give money, and republicans just love it. It move the big money closer to supporting him with money and endorsements, because after all, he is a product they can buy to increase wealth. More blather. More money.
