He might not be wrong. He wasn't very sharp 25 years ago either.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

He's always been stupid. But even compared to his first term, he's so much less alert. He's less snappy with responses. Just overall sluggish and dim.
Fox is working overtime to get decent sound clips
They really are committed to the whole "not being woke" thing.
The Media: "Dear Leader was seen to close his eyes in fervent prayer for our freedom."
Snoring attentively
I have a stick of butter that is sharper than he ever was
Many many very important people are saying that you have the sharpest stick of butter ever created.
Do they call each other before school to coordinate their colors?
I don't think they have to. The sycophants are just all mimicking their dear leader, who as always worn that combination.
Kegsbreath trying to be cheeky with the plaid.
Every minute he's sleeping is a minute he's not actively fucking us at least I guess
I don’t think he’s the real problem. It’s everyone around him and he just signs off on anything they put in front of him.
Human Auto Pen.
Yup. The whole “every accusation is a confession” thing will hold true for the autopen stuff too. I can guarantee he’s basically getting Weekend At Bernie’s’ed through the white house by all of his sycophants while he dozes. And that means they’re able to pass whatever the hell they want while he sleeps. And the scary part is that a lot of them will be a lot more competent and slimy than Trump is.
Stephen Miller is my #1 enemy. He keeps ignoring my requests for a fist fight over who gets to stay here and who gets to move to Venezuela.
Have you noticed how this only started once their mascot was put in office? Mascots are important. Disney is never going to kill Mickey.
How do you figure? Sleeping on a problem can be a great way to solve it.
Define "actively" - like any other leader, he mainly gets others to do stuff (while he sleeps).
Don't worry he has a whole team to do that on his behalf. Every minute Trump is sleeping is a minute where Steven Miller gets to make more decisions with no one to tell him no.
He’s just dreaming about all the children he raped.
Trump is the poster child for Dunning-Kruger.
As sharp as a broken pencil, perhaps. Certainly just as useless.
He's as sharp as a bowling ball, and denser.
I disagree.
A broken pencil can be sharpened.
A broken pencil is also sharp.
A broken pencil can be sharpened. Dozing donny can not.
I mean that might still be true
People like him think they are slick, but really they just take advantage of people below them.
People who are actually slick aren't a part of his lifestyle.
Dozy don sleeping again
He's probably referring to his odor and the word "pungent" didn't come to his mind.
Those diapers aren't going to change themselves, you know.
Drowsy don showcasing that old man energy. Pathetic!
I wish someone would start talking directly to him in such a way it’s obvious he’s not responding. Or maybe have Obama come in and laugh at him like he did that one guy sleeping on the subway.
If it's not a lie, he don't say it.
Yup. Still a liar.
I dunno, he wasn't ever the sharpest spoon in the toolbox
Don't care how sharp a rapist kiddie fucker is. Still a rapist kiddie fucker.
To be honest, I also do this whenever I have a meeting at work that I don't care about listening to. Bonus points if the seats are comfortable as fuck.
Yeah, but BidenSoOld and Kamala cackles - and doesn't have a penis - so here we are.
The only thing sharper now than it was 25 years ago are the devils sharpening their pitchforks to poke him with when he dies and his soul is dragged to hell.
If there is any use of AI that I want is to make a video of that to make a scene like that in Ghost... when a damned person dies they dont get a choice to remain on earth or move on, they are pulled right to hell. That was the scariest thing I saw on tv as a kid.
