When Is The Media Going to Do Their Job?

From Palmer Report:

Last night Donald Trump tried holding a town hall with his own supporters and an on-stage babysitter, but after just a few minutes he announced that he wouldn't be taking any more questions, and instead insisted that he and the audience spend the rest of the event listening to music. For the next thirty minutes Trump stood there on stage, at times frozen, at times directing the music with his arms, before he was finally led away.

It was one of the most mentally incompetent things that has ever happened in the history of U.S. presidential elections. And it's not as if it's something new. Trump's cognitive abilities have been on a downward slope for years, and it's become particularly pronounced over the past few months. He doesn't know who anyone is. He doesn't usually know where he is, and when he does occasionally remember, he lashes out at whatever city he's in. He talks mostly about sharks and batteries and cannibals. And now he's just standing there for half an hour in the middle of what supposed to have been a town hall.

If the major political media outlets aren't willing to cover Donald Trump's obvious senility and worsening dementia symptoms after this, then these media outlets might as well just shut down and give the money back to the shareholders. You can't ignore something like this. Not when it's this severe. And not when it's this important. This isn't some aging rock star trying to hide dementia, where the worst thing that could happen is a bad concert. This is a major party nominee for President of the United States, and a recently convicted felon at that, who's within four points of winning. We're talking about nuclear launch codes here, in the hands of a dementia patient who just spent nearly an entire "town hall" standing there pretending to direct music while a confused crowd looked on.

I'm not saying any of this to try to scare any of you who are reading this. You know the stakes. I'm saying all of this in the hope of shaming the mainstream political media into finally doing their jobs. Donald Trump is so glaringly deep into dementia, the media is not going to look biased by admitting it. If anything the media looks biased for trying to downplay what everyone can see is happening.

I've been saying all year that Trump's worsening dementia would end up being the story of the 2024 election, and now we're seeing that come home to roost. Kamala Harris and her campaign are now making Trump's medical competence, and his refusal to release his medical records, a central issue down the stretch. And there are no doubt persuadable voters who are seeing clips of a senile Trump and deciding to vote for Kamala Harris for reasons of safety. But when is the media going to do its part?

Donald Trump Was The Greatest American President Russia Ever Had

FACT: Donald Trump was the greatest American president Russia ever had.

All those phone calls to Putin both during and after he was president, prove he is so enamored of this evil man, that he really has been a willing "useful idiot."

What's scary is that Trump wants to be the American Putin, and so many of my fellow citizens are so ignorant (or enamored of authoritarians) themselves that they are willing to give their vote to someone who will take away the very liberty they claim to prize so much.

And once our freedom is gone, once our votes don't count, it could take decades to reverse the damage.

VOTE BLUE LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT. BECAUSE IT DOES.

 

Just Shut The Fuck Up, Donald!


Ummm…

Obama Brutally Roasts Trump In Rally Speech Like Never Before (& We Bet Donald Isn't Laughing)

Barack Obama smiling at podium

As the 2024 presidential race inches closer to the finish line, former President Barack Obama isn't staying quiet on his feelings about former President Donald Trump, who's hoping for another chance in the White House. Obama has shared a shady take on Trump's reputation before, and at a rally for Vice President Kamala Harris in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on October 10, Obama really tore into Harris' competitor. In a clip from the speech that he shared on X, formerly known as Twitter, Obama expressed disbelief that some voters think Trump will make positive changes for the people.

"Because there is absolutely no evidence that this man thinks about anybody but himself!" Obama added. Obama then painted an unflattering but seemingly accurate portrayal of the businessman-turned-politician, remarking on things like Trump's social media meltdowns and rambling, nonsensical speeches. "Constant attempts to sell you stuff," Obama added. "Who does that? Selling you gold sneakers and $100,000 watch and most recently, a Trump Bible. … Got his name right there, next to Matthew and Luke."

Obama even said Trump's "Saturday Night Live" appearances, which could probably be added to the most awkward moments from NBC's late-night variety show, were overkill. "It's crazy," Obama continued. "And the reason he does it is because all he cares about is his ego and his money and his status. He's not thinking about you."

Obama lambasted Trump's lies

Barack Obama also roasted Donald Trump for something he said during his presidential debate with Kamala Harris. It was evident that Trump's confidence crumbled after his debate with Biden in June 2024— while asked about a plan for healthcare at his debate with Harris, Trump snapped, "I have concepts of a plan, I'm not president right now" (via YouTube). Obama had a field day with that quote in another snippet from his rally speech posted on his X page. After laughing about Trump's "concepts" on what he'd replace the Affordable Care Act with, Obama posed the hypothetical of how saying you had a "concept of a plan" would never work if you were asked to complete an assignment for work or do household chores. "How's that going to go over?" Obama quipped with a chuckle. "If it wouldn't work for you, why in the heck should it work for the president of the United States?"

Obama also called out Trump for his many mistruths. One fan on X shared a clip where Obama criticized Trump for blatantly lying about Hurricane Helene relief. "You're gonna have leaders who try to help and then there … " Obama paused, before adding, "You have a guy who will just lie about it to score political points and this has consequences." Obama got heated while he spoke, raising his voice at points and questioning why deception by politicians has become something people are fine with. The fan who shared the snippet captioned it, "Barack Obama just reminded everyone why is is [sic] considered the preeminent orator of our generation."

Despite all that, the morning after Obama's rally speech, Donald posted on Truth Social that he was certain Obama would vote for him. Keep dreaming, Donald.

By This Point…

…we all know everything that comes out of his mouth is simply shit he's scooped out of his diaper. NONE of his claims are true. 

Full-Blown Dementia

From Palmer Report:

By now everyone expects Donald Trump to confuse Nikki Haley for Nancy Pelosi, to talk incoherently about sharks and batteries, and to reference Hannibal Lecter as if he were a real person. It's baked in. His supporters pretend it's all some kind of in-joke, the media minimizes it as mere rambling, and the rest of us are told we're overstating things if we try to point out that Trump's symptoms and behavior are fully consistent with full blown dementia. After all, we're not medical professionals, right?

But you don't need to be a medical professional to recognize this level of advanced dementia when you see it. And it's getting worse. Yesterday Trump gave a speech in Detroit, to a Detroit-based group that had the word "Detroit" in its name and signage, and got so confused about the whole thing that he ended up attacking Detroit. Of course whenever this happens we have to hear all the contrarian hot takes about how this is some kind of secret strategy on Trump's part and that he's doing it all on purpose. Come on, get real.

While Trump was attacking Detroit during his speech yesterday, he also said this: "Cylinders, no wings, no nothing, and they're coming down very slowly, landing on a raft in the middle of the ocean someplace with a circle. Boom. It reminded me of the Biden circles that we used to have. He'd have eight circles and he couldn't fill them up. But then I heard that he beat us with the popular vote. I don't know. I don't know. Couldn't fill up the eight circles. They were so beautiful to look at."

We're supposed to pretend that this is just an eccentric guy rambling? That he's just a little off topic? COME ON. You don't have to be a medical professional to identify Trump's words, behavior, and confusion as being full blown dementia. It's just so painfully obvious. Anyone who's gone through this with a family member knows exactly what's going on here. And it only gets worse.

Yet the media is still hesitating to fully call this what it is. The media would rather downplay it: oh, it's just Trump being Trump again. No it's not. It's Trump, with all the things that have always been wrong with him psychologically, but now with a severe case of dementia on top of it. It's time for the media to start calling Trump's dementia what it is. Until then, the media is failing to do its job.

I Was Thinking the Same Thing

Private citizens are forbidden under the federal Logan Act from engaging in foreign policy, undercutting America. So why did private citizen Donald Trump have at least SEVEN one on one phone calls with Putin since he left the White House (in which time Putin invaded Ukraine)? – The Lincoln Project
