Trump is channeling “great” mountebanks, side show barkers, and snake-oil salesmen of the past. There have always been rubes who fall for that sort of thing. His speeches, with their kaleidoscopic shifting random bits of misdirection and pretty nonsense, are darkly brilliant. Read the written transcripts of his speeches: they read like the ravings of a borderline madman.
“But…sniff… I’m the bestliest and goodlierst …sniff…preshident the Unitebs Stahses has…sniff…eber has. My brainliest is just YUGE, YUGER then…sniff…anyone eber was beforingly me!”
If.. the Republicans had any compassion “they” would do what they could to remove this poor soul from the office of the president.. The man (the trump) is clearly in over his head and the stress is getting to him. Instead.. selfish as they are.. they are using this poor man till he drops. There are laws against animal abuse.. against using children for labor.. against using mentally challenged folk for pleasure.. But the Democrats doing what any compassionate party would do to save his soul..by using the only means available.. the Constitution.. to remove the man gets ridiculed.
The republicans brain damaged burn out of a lawless drug addict president is totally dividing the country. We would like a real human as a leader, not fascist right wing scum.
Yep, keeping the AUMF, renewing the PAT RIOT Act, rubber-stamping material support for the genocidal war that Saudi Arabia is waging in Yemen, working to make nuclear war more likely, and giving 3/4 of a trillion dollars to the military, all done with the vote of almost every Republican, and a supermajority of Democrats. I think Brand New Congress has the right idea.
Out of breath, sniffing 58 times in 8 minutes, slurring speech, eyes fully dilated, erratic tongue movement, difficulty reading=too many lines of adderall.
Actually, he may be taking a form of “stupid pill.” It is known that (despite his claims to be taking nothing) he takes Finasteride. This drug is used for prostate issues (which are fairly common in men over fifty, let alone seventy) but also helps restore hair. #45 probably takes it for both.
However, there is a phenomenon known as Post-Finasteride Syndrome; some people react badly to Finasteride, and the symptoms include impaired cognitive function, decreased comprehension, and severe memory/recall impairment.

@OneSmith: it has nothing to do with my political perspective. Any loyal American, especially those who actually read the Constitution, should despise this traitor to our nation and our system of government, who is utterly and shamelessly corrupt, and isn’t even COMPETENT at it. He relies on Moscow Mitch to cover up for his incompetence, of course.
Nixon was a horrible person who did horrible things, but he ALSO did some impressive things.

That is so totally over the top that it’s unbelievable. And, awfully (and I use the word carefully) close to being precisely true. Scary as hell.

He isn’t just slurring his speech, he’s slurring his thoughts!
But it’s been going on for quite a while. Ever since Tim Apple took over the airports while investigating the oranges…

Maybe this is why Fox Business doctored a video to make it look as if Pelosi was slurring her words.
