    The former president suggested that he had requested to take the test: “I said, ‘give me a cognitive test, just so we can you know,’ because you know what the standards were, and I aced it.”

    Uh, he’s basically admitting here that even he has doubts about his own competence. “Just so we can know”. We have to be sure. What were we talking about again?

      It’s so odd to me that someone at his level has to field every thing he is thinking or everthing he does in spotlight of the media.

      “People say I wouldn’t be able to take a pie to the face. So I took a pie to the face and I was totally able to handle it.”

      Breaking news Donald Trump takes pie to the face, is he a clown?

      “Folks, I took a pie to the face, it was the best pie to the face of all time. No clown, no clown.”

      Breaking news Trump claims not to be clown even after taking a pie to the face.

      “I’m worried about that Joe Biden. He is a complete clown, people are saying it, everyone is saying it. Thats just what I’ve heard. Joe Biden is a Clown.”

      Breaking news Trump called Joe Biden a clown

      On and on

        That’s what happens when you’re a reality TV star that also posts non stop on social media.

    The guy already slips into speaking in the third person and gave us the “look, having nuclear” speech. His cognitive powers have never exactly been S tier.

    I was assured that the US was DAYS from collapse because the current president tripped on stairs, and that meant he was completely senile and incapable of presidenting.

    Can we get some younger actually-representative presidents up in this bitch?

    It’s interesting that even MSNBC, stalwart bastion of resistance lib blather, never mentions that Donald’s father, Fred, developed Alzheimer’s.

    I had to watch the video. It’s both better and worse than the text makes it seem. It’s definitely more word salad than usual. What’s fascinating is his audience likely assumes they’re the ones who don’t understand, given how little of reality they understand already.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    One clip started mid-sentence, showing Mr Trump speaking in New Hampshire: “Which is incapable of solvin’ even the sollest…smallest problem.

    In a separate clip, the 2024 Republican frontrunner seems to be taking the role as narrator, saying, “Yes, oh yes, and quickly says President Trump.

    At a campaign rally in New Hampshire on Saturday, the former president seemed unable to pronounce the word “climate” and instead uttered “clime.”

    “I don’t know if you saw, but a few months ago, I took a cognitive test my doctor gave me,” he told supporters at the rally.

    On Monday, Mr Trump went so far as to claim that he would outperform his GOP rival Nikki Haley in a cognitive test.

    Ms Haley questioned Mr Trump’s cognition after he appeared to confuse her with former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in a campaign speech, claiming she was in charge of “security” during the January 6 Capitol riot.

    I can see what they are trying to do, but this doesn’t make the Republicans look bad. It makes the system look fucked and we all realize the dystopia we live in with a senile idiot on both sides of the ballot. Biden is a senile sock puppet to any corporate money anyone can make with him and Trump is a senile narcissist POS racist bigot.
