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 goverment or family values ever again, the response is Donald Trump.
Problem is he may take the USA down with him
Oh no.
Face it: Donald Trump, at no age, ever had a grip.
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 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.
“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.
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.
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
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.
Just to be clear—I know it’s said that this is almost a gish gallop statement—but it absolutely is not.
Since we’re just talking about the headline and not the contents of the article, then this is just a statement. It’s not an argument so it can’t be a gish gallop. If we take the implications of the statement as premises and the headline as a conclusion, then this is just one singular argument which also means it cannot be a gish gallop. Any argument will have a number of premises. Where do you begin? At any of the premises. Demonstrating that the premises are false will show the conclusion to be false. By definition a gish gallop is a great number of arguments that overwhelm an opponent. One argument simply cannot be a gish gallop.
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.
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!
(Crud. Can’t get past the paywall.)
Alas, nevermind. :(
I wanted to read it, so here’s the archived version. Thanks for sharing!deleted by creator
What, just now?

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…
