The Republican front-runner made another gaffe as he tried to explain away all his other ones.

Donald Trump’s recent memory failures sure do look like some kind of cognitive decline. In the last few months, Trump has mixed up President Joe Biden with former President Barack Obama, slurred his words, bragged about his favorite type of violent death and that he calls corn “non-liquid gold,” insisted you need voter ID to buy bread, and confused his GOP competitor Nikki Haley for California Representative Nancy Pelosi, claiming that the former failed to act during January 6.

But during a campaign rally on Wednesday, Trump had a new excuse for all that, claiming all of his short circuits are actually just sarcastic jokes.

      He doesn’t drink or do drugs. It would probably help if he did.

        He allegedly does not drink and is allegedly quite the connoisseur of stimulants. Look up “Noel Casler on Donald Trump” for the details of the latter allegation.

          I fully believe he doesn’t drink alcohol. Lots of people don’t. And I believe he doesn’t see himself as a drug user because they’re prescribed.

          Very. What is your point? This is a well know fact about Trump. I’m not defending him in any way. I hate the man with a passion.

        And I still properly fit into the 32 inch waistline pants I keep buying, too. People can claim whatever they want about themselves. That doesn’t make it true.

          Except that it’s corroborated by many people who have spent time around him. It was well know long before he even ran for president. People can be crazy fucks without drugs and alcohol.
