Trump is slurring, lying, and rambling right out of the gate

[Celerity]

[malaise]

1. Yep

Unwatchable

[yellow dahlia]

28. There was no conclusion. No plan. Nothing linear.

Lots of threats strung together in a sentence salad.

Say what!!!?

[lastlib]

50. Just the usual verbal vomit. n/t

[IthinkThereforeIAM]

45. Yep...

... I watched the first few minutes then jumped in the car to get some fresh mustard and dill relish for my supper of hot dogs w/french fried onions.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

63. Yummy!

[Coventina]

2. I'm glad someone is listening, because I can't bear to do it!

[highplainsdem]

10. I'm reading DU and Bluesky with the TV on in the background. That dunce doesn't need full attention,

and I'm curious to see some reactions to his babbling.

[highplainsdem]

3. Sounding out of breath and weak at times, too.

[creeksneakers2]

53. I agree

I thought he was panting like he'd just run a quarter mile.

[Mz Pip]

4. Like never seen before

He’s fabricating a reality that exists only in his mind.

[Aussie105]

62. Dante's 9 levels of Hell comes to mind.

Brought to you by POTUS Trump, right to your doorstep.

1. Limbo: For virtuous non-Christians and unbaptized infants.
2. Lust: For those who succumbed to carnal desires.
3. Gluttony: For the excessively indulgent.
4. Greed: For the avaricious and prodigal.
5. Wrath: For the angry and sullen.
6. Heresy: For those who denied the faith.
7. Violence: For the violent against others, self, and God.
8. Fraud: For deceivers and manipulators.
9. Treachery: For traitors and betrayers.

Trump qualifies for levels 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9.

His place is assured!

[Grim Chieftain]

5. Thanks for taking one for the team

I'd rather watch a toenail clipping contest.

[SheltieLover]

7. +1

[AllyCat]

40. You win!

[dalton99a]

6. The world could use a televised cardiovascular event

[SheltieLover]

8. Here's hoping!

[Bluetus]

36. This was God's one best chance to make me religious.

If that pig had collapsed into a heap on camera, then I would seriously have had to consider the possibility of gods.

IOW, God, you had just one simple job to do and ....

[AllyCat]

42. 😂

[Jack Valentino]

54. It was not 'live'.... so you are allowed to question 'why was that speech so short?'

Could have even been A.I.---- did anyone count his fingers?
NO, because we never SAW THEM!!!!!




These days, it could possibly take "a while" to know that some leader is actually DEAD,
if his sychophants tried to conceal that fact!

[Beartracks]

66. Like the leader in the original Star Trek's "Patterns of Force" episode.

This was the "Nazi episode" where the leader was propped up for televised speeches with a big mic in front of his face so you couldn't see that his lips weren't moving. Granted, he was just very heavily drugged -- but at least he sat there live and not taped!

==================

[tishaLA]

9. FFS he even did his "Barack Hussein Obama" shtick

and dogging the Iran nuclear deal. He's a mess. And he sounds terrible.

[AllyCat]

43. Did he do the double handjob?

[flamingdem]

58. o m g

[Johnny2X2X]

11. Anyone watching want to recap what he's saying?

Ending war? War escalating. Nuclear holocaust?

[Amaryllis]

17. I lasted four minutes and it was just how great we were and what evil wicked nasty vile villian Iran is.

[Jack Valentino]

56. if Iran managed to assassinate Trump, I would fly the Iranian flag from the front of my house

for the next few months..... !

[bamagal62]

68. Please 🙏🏻

[yellow dahlia]

30. Nothing linear. No conclusion. No plan.

It was a string of sentence salad, peppered with threats. What was the point?

[thought crime]

48. This is what "Peace through Strength" looks like. It looks like a real stupid War.

That's the point. "War is Peace. Freedom is Slavery. Ignorance is Strength."

[yellow dahlia]

49. Indeed.

[leftstreet]

34. DU used to have SOTU threads

Thread 1
Thread 2
etc

We used to be a proper forum

[ColoringFool]

41. We Used To Have Proper Presidents.

[SCantiGOP]

57. He did say

That we had won on the “batterfield.”

[MuirHero]

12. He's a madman.

Completely unhinged. Bring out a straitjacket.

[Coventina]

13. Big strong widow, tears in her eyes, said, "Sir sir sir! Please finish the job

in their honor!"

on edit: (as reported by my husband who is listening)

[NJCher]

67. Who refers to a widow

As big and strong?

Doesn’t the fact that she is big and strong make her comment not so important?

I am laughing so hard at this. I have this vision in my head of a widow with Popeye biceps. Tears in her eyes. Sir ! Sir!

[dweller]

14. 🫸🏼

Quiet Pedo


✌🏻

[Renew Deal]

15. Looks like he's just ranting

Nothing new except lies and the incorrect intelligence that he was fooled into believing.

[spanone]

16. FUCKING LIAR.

FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.FUCKING LIAR.

[thought crime]

47. I see your point.

[Dulcinea]

18. He sounds like he's drunk.

Sad, pathetic old man desperate for attention. He was upstaged by the Artemis 2 launch today. Can't have that.

James Austin Johnson's SNL parody of the Fascist Felon is spot on! Looking forward to the next cold open!

[MuirHero]

24. They have him all drugged up.

[Totally Tunsie]

19. How long before he starts blasting the SCOTUS?

Going on and on and on...and saying nothing.

Why is he so breathless???

[Dulcinea]

23. I would bet my next paycheck he has CHF.

He sure shows a lot of the signs. https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/heart-failure/symptoms-causes/syc-20373142

[MuirHero]

25. Sure hope so.

[agingdem]

29. CHF with a triple sidecar of dementia,

Last edited Wed Apr 1, 2026, 10:08 PM - Edit history (1)

hypertension, and senile narcolepsy..

[Maru Kitteh]

52. Lets roll that HTN under the CHF and add a CVA.

At least one event, I really feel he’s had two distinct event periods.

[DevineAli]

37. He seems out of breath. Kind of wheezy. 🤞

[BigmanPigman]

20. Wow, you're actually watching this?

If you are then "thank you" for taking one for the team. I can't watch unless I want to have a heart attack in 2 minutes.

[yellow dahlia]

32. It was bonkers.

I can't figure out - did someone actually compose (write) that speech deliberately? Or did he just read all of his recent middle of the night rantings on "antisocial untruth:?

[BigmanPigman]

35. I'm sure Steven Miller helped to write it.

He is the acting POTUS after all.

[crazylikafox]

21. "We're going to bomb them back to the stone age in the next few weeks "

I don’t think he’s ending the war

[MuirHero]

27. Who would stop this lunatic from dropping a nuke on Iran?

[AllyCat]

46. I don't know. I hope there is someone who will stop him.

[ColoringFool]

44. And THAT'S How You Bring Democracy, Folks!

[boonecreek]

22. Again the lie that Obama just gave Iran the money.

I wonder if anyone in the MSM will point out that it was their money.
and all Obama did was lift the sanctions. I'm not hopeful.

[Totally Tunsie]

26. Nope...not dead yet.

Nineteen minutes of my life wasted on nothing.

[Aristus]

31. He is in the "Hitler moving phantom armies around a map" phase

of autocratic dementia.

[Grammy23]

33. He just read from the script --

Or repeated what had been drilled into him. Flat affect, monotone throughout most of it even though he was reciting all of his greatest hits. Sounded like a lot of bragging and boasting and frankly got repetitious about two minutes in.

I started out half way listening but quickly returned to my Pinterest scrolling. It was mind numbingly boring but I’m sure some of his tiny core base will sing his praises. 🙄

[yellow dahlia]

51. It seemed like he read from all the middle of the night rants he posted recently,

on "antisocial untruth".

[Bayard]

38. Did he bring a map of the ballroom?

[flamingdem]

59. good one

could almost believe it!

[AverageOldGuy]

39. Trump and hi speechwriters deserve a medal . . .

. . . for packing 500 pounds of bullshit into a 5 pound bag. Got to be a world record.

[generalbetrayus]

55. I told msbetrayus while watching Sleepy Don

that if lies were dynamite, he could level the rest of the White House all by himself.

[Jack Valentino]

60. AND his great new healthcare plan will be announced in the next "two weeks"

AND all Americans will get a 'tariff rebate',

And

"the check is in the mail, I love you,
and I promise not to C** in your mouth!'"

(The last part is actually a quote from the 1980's movie,
"To Live And Die In L.A."..... which I still find to be prescient about 'lies'!)




(The movie starred Willem Defoe as the main counter-fitter,
and William Peterson who later had a starring role on TV's "CSI"....)

[blue_jay]

61. So, I have a confession to make

I scrolled to figure out what was in the video but once I clicked on his part I couldn't watch him talk so I decide to watch the Artemis II launch instead, seemed more interesting. Am I the only one?

A good place to start that is at the 3:38min mark in the video but you can go back 10 minutes or longer to listen to all of the pre flight, countdown, etc. Was more exciting to see than I had anticipated (I put it on full screen mode). Pretty inspiring that they are doing this too, hopefully the mission will go well over the next 10 days.

Does anyone think I should go back and listen to the other parts of the video? I probably should. Thank you Celerity for the post. Would not have seen this footage of the launch otherwise.

[phxjurist]

64. I watched the entire 20 minutes. No slurring and no rambling.

Trump stuck to the script. The script was written on a sixth grade level, however.

[Aussie105]

65. So this 'nothing new speech' had nothing new in it?

Got my hopes up.

Silly me!

He has backed himself into a corner and all the bluff, bravado and sabre rattling isn't working for once.

Any man with a shred of sanity would have said 'OK, hit me with the 25th amendment, and lock me up for all my misdeeds. I really need the peace and quiet!'

Instead - running on an empty tank only held upright and kept rambling on from the drugs he gets fed.
