"Let me just say one thing first," Trump began. "So, I had a meeting with them. First, I had a meeting with Congress, Republican Congress. It was like a lovefest. Then, I met with them and the US Senate, which was all Republicans, 49. And it was also a lovefest, but my best meeting of the three (sic) was with the executives. And Biden’s misinformation — people put out a thing: Oh, he went on, he rambled. There was no rambling. This, you could say, this is rambling, but in order to get to the point, you have to, you know, this is a very complex subject, that a lot of people, most people don’t understand. But I just wanted to say, that that was the best meeting. They loved it. They were happy with."
How can anyone can listen to him and not think, "This is just a torrent of nonsense"?
Having interacted with a number of Trump supporters over the years, they legitimately talk nonsense like this daily. This is nothing new. If anything, it makes them like him more because he's like them, and they want to be him.
What's actually rare is when he insults someone and they are surprised or don't like that he said that. But no, most supporters latch onto the phrase and repeat it themselves
I fully endorse them dropping Trump, and promoting Vance up to face off against Harris.
I think the country really needs to see a Democrat get 90%+ of the vote.
As they fucking should.
And not because the same was done to Biden, though the silly geese on the blue side seem to only care about retribution here.
There's a basic, important principle here that the president absolutely needs to have a working brain. Biden and Trumps' brains are doing what old brains do, and there's no shame in it, but they are walking examples as to why we need an age limit for the presidency.
