Trump's Latest Incomprehensible Stream of Consciousness

Former President Donald Trump went on an indecipherable rant about President Joe Biden and his "circles" -- among other matters -- while delivering a speech on Thursday.

Verbatim: "And then all of a sudden, you hear that they're leaving Milwaukee or they're leaving wherever they may be located. It's very sad to see it. And it's so simple. I mean, you know, this isn't like Elon with his rocket ships that land within 12 inches on the moon where they wanted to land. Or he gets the engines back. That was the first I realized. I said, "Who the hell did that?" I saw engines about three, four years ago. These things were coming. 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.

Reminded me of the Biden circles that he used to have, right? He'd have eight circles and he couldn't fill 'em up. But then I heard he beat us with the popular vote. I don't know. I don't know. Couldn't fill up the eight circles. I always loved those circles. They were so beautiful. They were so beautiful to look at. In fact, the person that did them, that was the best thing about his, the level of that circle was great. But they couldn't get people, so they used to have the press stand in those circles because they couldn't get the people. Then I heard we lost. Oh, we lost. No, we're never gonna let that happen again. But we've been abused by other countries. We've been abused by our own politicians, really, more than other countries."

We all recognize Trump's speech from listening to friends and loved ones shortly to be placed into care for Dementia.

"Stream of Consciousness"?

That's sane washing.

Trump is demonstrating deficits in language associated with neurological decay.

No, not neurological "decline". The man is already at the bottom of the hill.

Time re-visit reports that Trump stinks of sh--, for the glaring reason.

"Couldn't fill up the eight circles" is the new "he doesn't know how to use the three seashells!"

He's just trying to, uh, square the ... hmmmm ... circles?

@#3 ... The man is already at the bottom of the hill. ...

I'm not convinced that fmr Pres Trump is at the bottom of his decline at this point.

He is still able to speak incoherent sentences and ramble on about unrelated topics for hours on end.

So long as he can accomplish that, imo, there is still much degradation that can take place. And, if he wins next month, that further degradation will likely occur while he occupies the Oval Office.

That's just typical Trump on stage killing time with his super-duper intellectual "weave."

It's like a jigsaw puzzle. It's not his fault if nobody is smart enough to figure it out./s

Also

Keep in mind that Trump never intended to win this election honestly. His new scheme is to coerce election officials in swing states at the local or district level to refuse to certify a Harris win based on some "trumped" up excuse of suspected irregularities. His scheme is to throw the decision to the House of Representatives which, as I understand the process, is one vote per state.

The last I heard, Trump's scheme doesn't seem to be working. Governors and election officials are balking at violating their own Constitutionally mandated election rules. The State of Georgia may be the exception but that's also up in the air.

So, if Trump is just killing time so he doesn't look like Harris already has him whipped, it's possible he already knows his scheme isn't going to work and he's lost the election.

@#8 ... It's like a jigsaw puzzle. It's not his fault if nobody is smart enough to figure it out./s ...

Yeah, I see the "/s" there.

That aside, it is just fmr Pres Trump trying to raise himself above other, not by showing his assets, but by degrading his perceived assets that others may have.

My opinion...

OK, still having issues with copy 'n' paste on this new laptop.

Going back to my old laptop...


Apologies.

@#12 ... Going back to my old laptop...

I do have to say, at this point that the Lenovo T-series laptops, once an industry standard for ruggedness, have deteriorated to being ~just another laptop, or worse.~

I can see the cost-reduction in the hardware's user interface.

imo, Lenovo has lost its mojo in the T-series. Big time.

If the media really covered Trump's health, it would seriously hurt his chances of winning the election, that's why they don't cover it:

@AshaRangappa_

When George W. [sic] had the flu and barfed on the Japanese Prime Minister in 1992, the media covered it. When Hillary Clinton had the flu and *stumbled* from dehydration during a campaign event in 2016, the media covered it. (For DAYS.) When President Biden so much as stumbled a few *words* the media endlessly pounded on about his health. I would REALLY like to know why Trump's health--mental and physical--is seemingly off limits. For real, why

I ran the following by 45 through the test below and got the unsurprising result.

"Reminded me of the Biden circles that he used to have, right? He'd have eight circles and he couldn't fill 'em up. But then I heard he beat us with the popular vote. I don't know. I don't know. Couldn't fill up the eight circles. I always loved those circles. They were so beautiful. They were so beautiful to look at.
