Former Republican lawmaker Joe Walsh said, “Any one of these from a previous president would have rightly caused widespread open speculation from the press and the public that something was genuinely wrong with their brain,” he said on X.
“There should be coverage of Trump’s cognitive decline. Massive coverage,” the ex-congressman said. “Because it’s an issue. A huge issue.”
- Photos of Trump portrayed as the pope
- Photos of Trump as a muscle-bound Jedi (or Sith).
- Trump quote: “I think the good parts are the Trump economy and the bad parts are the Biden economy.”
- Trump was asked, “Your secretary of state says everyone who’s here, citizens and noncitizens, deserve due process… Do you agree?” The president then replied, saying, “I don’t know… I’m not, I’m not a lawyer. I don’t know.”
I don’t normally post stuff like this, but the pope pic is beyond crazy coming from the White House. We have gotten used to it, haven’t we. He has smart and evil people working for him, but he has lost it.
Exactly. Yet his “decline” seems to track with what his supporters want. They’re on the same wavelength. Brain rot all around. And the rest are all ignorant or evil. They don’t notice and only care to pushback on you and I.
The fucktard has nit been able to string together 2 sentences since he started running in 2016. His people dont care, never did.
How is this news, though? Those of us who pay attention have been painfully aware of this for years; and those of us who don’t pay attention love his antics, because it’s entertaining, and they don’t understand what’s happening, at all (or they do, but they love Fascism).
You know when the drumbeat of Biden is old happened? Even though Trump is just a few years younger? That’s got to happen with trump. The Republicans must be held accountable.
That’s cool, but Republicans don’t give a shit.
Look, with Biden, we knew there was an entire cabinet and group of career professionals quietly working behind him. No good leader does everything alone.
There are people behind Trump, too. But those people are terrifying, actually far scarier than Trump himself. Do you want a President Vance? Are you ready for a Yarvinian/Thielian cyberpunk dystopia “Network State”? Ready to invade Greenland? Ready to carpet bomb Gaza? Ready to ship off liberals and “communists” to El Salvador for “terrorism”? Ready for some Handmaid’s Tale shit?
For fucks’ sake, man, “Trump being old” is not the same thing as “Biden being old,” because the people behind Biden were more-or-less normal people, not Machiavellian loyalists, and certainly not a weird coalition of religious wingnuts, evil nerds, eccentric billionaires, and pro-Russia sycophants.
All the people behind trump don’t have the 40% cult followers to back them up. Look at all of the republican elections, they’re the ones getting blamed.
I genuinely appreciate your optimism.
I submit that once they’re finished dismantling our institutions and rule of law, they won’t need popular support anymore.
We’ll see. I hope I’m wrong.
Trump is better at it this time, but he did all of the same shit his first term. Look how quick Biden fixed it or got it going back on the same track. Was Biden perfect? Nah, but he was a great president. We can’t get despondent.
Someone posted a Bush article and a Reagan article, they were pretty horrific. They just hid it better. We’ve been down this road before. I’m not saying it’s going to be a good time, but we can fix this.
How can we fix it if checks and balances are gone, the legislative branch is steamrolled by executive order, and judicial rulings can be completely ignored by the executive branch?
There may not be elections anymore going forward.
It’s not despondency, it’s realism. They’re working the Nazi playbook. This is how liberal democracies die.
You’re not wrong, but democracy is dying, it’s not dead. We have to fight for it by protesting, voting and volunteering.
So the spurs are back 50 years later 🙂
Congressman Walsh said “I lost my license — now I don’t drive. But in the long run, life’s been good to me so far.”
Doesn’t seem like decline. He was a bat shit crazy moron from before his first term.
The GOP will never do a thing about it. They’re too desperate to cling to power to anger their voters.
Their voters are now becoming the people that are angry at them.
Well, you have to be extremily ignorant or dumb to have missed the mass load of red flags something is wrong with him, starting st least from when he started to run for his first campaign. And it only got worse from that point.
But it’s the same as people with the bumper sticker “I bought it before Elon turned crazy” on their swasricar. Elon has always been crazy and the red flags were extremily clear and all over the place. So thinking he wasn’t crazy before shows how fucking dumb and/or ignorant these people really are.
