Trump Cognitively Declines In Front Of The World During Meet With NATO Leader
(www.politicususa.com)
We should tie a mandatory government retirement age to Medicare or social security eligibility so there's some pressure to keep it below 80.
It's wild that people aren't expected to work at his age and in a lot of cases aren't allowed to drive anymore. But here is this decrepit old cunt steering the world backward into ruin.
Cognitive tests from a third party would be beneficial too.
I mean, the President and Executive have two separate and independent, third parties who are responsible for checks and balances against them, and look where that’s gotten us.
They’re all corruptible.
True.
I think it would be great if we set the age limit to be tied to a percentage of the average expected lifespan of the country's citizens in some way. Setting a hard age limit wouldn't be adaptive enough.
It would incentivize them to pass legislation and regulations which help increase everyone's life expectancy. It would also somewhat help in the case of a future where some medical advances allow only those with enough money to have insanely increased lifespans.

Is Joe Biden in the room with us right now?
👀
The next time Trump tells anyone to stop talking about Epstein, someone needs to tell him that he needs to shut the fuck up about Biden first. For fuck's sake.
Nobody will do that. Everyone involved in his administration is either a cult member or an opportunistic scumbag. He will be conveniently replaced by somebody more insidious and competent once the machinery of USA democracy and benevolent government have been dismantled and a successor chosen.

Whoever does this will be a hero
How about we go in chronological order and he shuts up about Obama first. Or Rosie O'Donnell.
"Don't you think he looks tired?"
It's trump being stupid, nothing to do with his age
por que no los dos?
because it's been decades that he's been saying stupid things
No. You’re wrong. Even as late as 2015 he was able to answer a question. What we’re unwilling witnesses to is his stupidity and serious cognitive decline.

I get actual reporting can be boring and dull. That doesn't mean we have to start our own newmax or breitbart. It will be only a matter of time until we get some crazy ass left wing nut as a result.
Defeating lies/exaggerations can only be done with knowledge and truth. Please do better with the news sources. This feels more like AI left-wing grifters.
I don't see how anything he said shows he is declining?
Actually among all the bullshit he is letting out, this seems very coherent by comparison.
Seriously. “Esprit de corps”? Where the hell did he get that from? He blamed everything on Biden and it didn’t make any sense, but that’s not anything new, that’s what won him the election.
The actual, literal quote speaks for itself
And I have to tell you, Europe has a lot of spirit for this war. A lot of people, you know, when I first got involved, I really didn't think they did, but they do. And I saw that a month ago when you were there, most of you many of you were there. The level of esprit de corps spirit that they have is amazing.
Sounds like average Trump nonsense tbh. I agree he IS mentally declined but that had to have started ages ago.
Having watched the video and even read the script… it just sounds like he’s in front of a group and camera, and filling the space conversationally. It’s awkward, it’s his dumb speech patterns, but it doesn’t scream at me or stand out for being belligerent or worse than anything else. This one is a nothing burger.
Only because we keep lowering the bar for him. We disqualified Howard Dean because he screamed funny....
This shouldn’t be a bar lowering item to begin with. These or dumb human things, which we all are or do sometimes. The words here really shouldn’t be worth pointing at the guy and laughing about. It’s barely worth me even saying anything about here. Only slightly more worth my time is seeing if I can snap 1 or 2 people out of stooping so low to mock the guy for being human… that they’re missing more important and glaring issues.
This only show how stupid he is like he always been. Nothing to do with his age
Sounds like someone was playing Disco Elysium.
Agreed. Same rambling as always.
A nothingburger of an "article" partially locked behind a paywall.
distraction from the epstein files, all these news are just complicit.
The pond scum talking in the video—yeah, same thing we’ve seen for YEARS.
Same excrement, different day.
Wake me up when orange poo does worse than this same thing he always does please. @miss_demeanour@lemmy.dbzer0.com, may we request you edit title to be less sensational?
He’s poopbrain and poopmouth did I mention that, anyway thanks
tfw anyone needs to be convinced he's demented
I have watched the video and while he does ramble about blaming Biden for everything as always, he doesn’t seem to have “declined” during the interview honestly speaking. The headline is quite misleading/sensational in my opinion
Ohh man, ik respecteerde Mark al, maar nu nóg meer. Die heerlijke nuchtere "uhh, wat praat deze gast?" blikken.. xD
Edit: Pardon my French, I'll rephrase for our Dutch-stunted fellow lemmings:
Ohh man, I already respected Mark, but even more so now. That lovely sober "Uhh, what the hell is this guy saying" look around... xD
Addendum: A true communication specialist. We sent the best of the generation: Teflon Mark!

Trump ranting incoherently isn't news, that's a Tuesday. Or Saturday. Or Monday. Or, you know, just any day.
What in the holy hell is this reality show clip even supposed to be in the first place? Why are these people sitting in a fucking Support Group circle? What is supposedly being accomplished in this setup?
