Ok ...something somatic is going on with Orangina... [View all]

Do y’all remember a long long time ago when he went to the hospital in the middle of the night and they never said why he went? They just evaded questions with BS answers until the lazy media got tired of asking.

I believe that they were evaluating him following some sort of episode or episodes. I’m certain he was given neurological tests and he’s been lying about their results since. In fact, his usual mechanism of projection was implemented against President Biden, by stating that he, the President, was infirm and senile because…that’s what he, Trump, nearly always does.

We are witnessing his rapid decline in real time. There is little question that it’s accelerating and is exacerbated by stressors. The Biden turnover is possibly the most recent: it’s the political equivalent of being left at the altar. Being shot at is another as is having to sit through a multi-week jury trial and then to be found guilty on top of that.
To be truthful, all of these would severely affect, at least emotionally, a perfectly normal, reasonably well-adjusted individual.

Well, he certainly ain’t that. Add to the above the essential dissolution of his marriage, the fear concerning pending litigation, and the stresses of running a criminal enterprise and this is a recipe for accelerating his dementia.


Okay, you don’t like diagnosing over the teevee? Please allow me to ask: honestly, most here are of sound mind. How many could deal with this concatenation of nightmares and feel stable? Right. So a malignant deteriorating narcissist who’s showing real signs of confusion is gonna see their persona’s health plummet.

As a final point, his dress and demeanor is “off” and has been for years. This is not the Trump I recall from Atlantic City, where he was a shitbag, but analytical and sharp in his crumby way. No…this guy is a shell of his former self, as they say. That’s why he’s being hidden presently while they figure out what to do with him. They even sent that POS Nazified prick Stephen Miller out on MSNBC,…they don’t know what else to do to stay relevant.
