The stand and sway sessions were bizarre. And wildly underreported.

I say again, the New York Times must be destroyed.

They just thought it'd be more fun under a trump admin. Edgy!

Never forget that morons said Biden and Harris weren't "fit" to be president. Meanwhile this reptile brain clown was definitely good enough according to them.😐

His decaying voter base sees themselves in his dementia

We're heading to a nursing home dystopia where the government makes us wipe the buttholes of our estranged relatives on life support.

The media still galls me that they didn't report this all the time of him not speaking. Slurring his words. Standing there dancing for 42 mins. If Biden had done that the right and left media would have been screaming and setting their hair on fire

Those giant checks that nazi elmo was ‘giving’ away were also a factor. Amazing and sickening. I guess there’s a lot more people that would sell off their own grandmother for cash than we ever expected.

They were on it for him the whole time.

You've helped me get to this understanding --

MSM = Collaborators. Full stop.

tcodee.bsky.social•4 hours ago

He spent 15 minutes talking about Arnold Palmers penis. And it was barely mentioned.

janedziendobry.bsky.social•1 hour ago

He simulated oral sex and they giggled.

tcodee.bsky.social•28 minutes ago

The media barely paid attention to that. His crowd went wild. But it was ignored.

ericallyn.bsky.social•3 hours ago

And if it was mentioned, it was usually as an "Isn't this amusingly quirky ha ha just Trump being Trump" thing.

gotta say, his impairment is working out great for Musk and Stephen Miller - the old man golfs while the rest of them execute their evil plans.

proudrebelscum.bsky.social•3 hours ago

this will be like Reagan, we’ll find out in 10-15 years just how bad the dementia was getting.

dypset.bsky.social•10 hours ago

Thank you holy smokes

janedziendobry.bsky.social•10 hours ago

This was the point when he knew Musk had done whatever it was to secure the election win for Trump. This was when he was saying they didn't need votes & Musk was saying if Trump lost Musk would go to prison. He knew he didn't have to try anymore & said fuck it Im winning either way.

It was so bizarre. Same vibe as an On Cinema Oscar Special

My favourite part of that was Kristi Noem trying to manage that on the stage.

It dominated my mostly MSM news feed for about 36 hours. I don’t know that you can blame the Times because Fix News viewers didn’t hear about it.

Why did they vote this orange turd in...

Too much Kool aide

tkleghorn.bsky.social•4 hours ago

I remember reading it and expecting a bigger follow up on his deteriorating mental health.

tuikkunen.bsky.social•4 hours ago

I think "cognitive capacities" would be more accurate, although it makes whatever mental issues he has more visible.

elgueroflaco.bsky.social•8 hours ago

Was this not the one where some old fascist had a heart attack in the crowd and Trump was playing for time as they carried the guy out or something?

knaidlach.bsky.social•4 hours ago

It’s so clear that after a consensus narrative appears, it gels and becomes very difficult to change. Biden was the addled old man and Trump was dynamic and shoot from the hip honest. Journalism is a business and you don’t mess with a winning formula.

mitchking.bsky.social•4 hours ago

Too bad they didn’t headline it as “People Question Trump’s Fitness after Bizarre Town Hall” with subheading “We talked with likely voters in diners who wondered if his mental and physical health would last for 4 more years.”

hogandda.bsky.social•3 hours ago

Also, I would love to read as many columns like ‘our reporter goes to Delis in the blue cities to learn what the Republicans need to understand about about them….” As they wrote about visiting rural diners to ‘find out what Dems need to know “

I think the current ratio is 0 to 100.

janedziendobry.bsky.social•1 hour ago

This x 100.

buffaloshuffle.bsky.social•11 hours ago

it was so crazy watching that happen lmao like McConnell freezing at the podium and people kinda just being like "haha he does that"

It's like writing about a cult by someone who is themselves "cult curious"

Can hardly wait for Trump’s debut on stage at the Kennedy Center. Will be wild!

And Biden was sandbagged for a bad debate where he couldn’t t keep up with Trump’s firehose of lies

adownie.bsky.social•11 hours ago

Wasn’t there some me where he played the same song on repeat? Ave Maria, was it?

jube0.bsky.social•10 hours ago

Played it multiple times during the half hour, at least

plankysmith.bsky.social•10 hours ago

Yep

snaps17.bsky.social•3 hours ago

Can you say cult?

Snaps knows that you can?

Silly cultists.

manuelportakal.bsky.social•9 hours ago

I cannot believe people voted for him still after seeing this

pedro415.bsky.social•3 hours ago

Trump supporters would just shrug their shoulders.

dbregernyc.bsky.social•4 hours ago

This was pretty well covered as an indicator of blossoming aphasia.

lovebethandrobots.bsky.social•10 hours ago

This was one of the incidents that made his win so gutting. I couldn’t imagine anyone seeing that and still voting for him.

btbaum.bsky.social•8 hours ago

Gutted—yes. But I think the whole point is that far far far fewer people voted for him than the totals posted. Not sure how “I’ve got all the votes I need” was achieved but the Oligarchs got what they paid for.

lovebethandrobots.bsky.social•5 hours ago

The campaign looked like it was spiraling but they seemed oddly sanguine. 🤷‍♀️

btbaum.bsky.social•2 hours ago

Yes! It made me optimistic at the time but really, it was a red light flashing, a warning siren. The man is sundowning daily. They wind him up to spew vitriol but (with apologies to inmates), the inmates are running the asylum.

swedenukraine.bsky.social•10 hours ago

I had that thought at the J6-storming.
(And about 10 other occasions after that)

Assuming I survive all of this, I will tell a documentarian that a guy I followed on twitter years ago for film editing thoughts did a better job of covering Trump's dementia than any mainstream media. They will probably cut me from the documentary, and you probably know they'd be right to do so.

Midas Touch covered it and so did a lot of others. It was just MSM that said crickets. I think it is a clue that EM had this thing locked up in the bag with fuckery.
