    Trump is an "all of the above" kind of guy when you think of how the GOP used to "disqualify" various Dem candidates. Biden, too old/losing it; Various, affairs; Dukakis, let criminals walk; Shady business dealings with mobsters and foreign powers, palling around with terrorists and associations with deranged religious types;

    I mean having Musk and Kennedy on board is enough weirdness even if Trump was totally normal.

    "Forget his rhetoric, forget the xenophobia, the racism, the dangerous policy decisions, the sucking up to our enemies, the insider deals, the weird hangers-on - DO YOU AMERICA REALLY WANT TO SPEND THE NEXT FOUR YEARS WATCHING THIS????"

    It really shows how powerful the bullhorns of FoxNews and MAGA are when a poor debate performance leads to weeks of "Is Biden too old!?!" coverage. But Trump can just sway on stage for 30 minutes listening to his favorite songs and nobody in the national media questions if he's mentally fit.

    Apparently, more of them do than any of us want to admit.

    And Inky, the MSM didn't do all this. There is a shitload of stupid people in the U.S. of A.

    There are a lot of people who didn't retain a Goddamned thing from high school government class, probably because learning is for dorks and weirdos.

    I’m so very fucking tired of nothing goddamn mattering when it comes to this subhuman piece of shit. A fucking decade of a fact-free universe.

    Sweet fucking Christ, trump belongs in a goddamn locked-down nursing home.

    I think there’s a whole bunch of Trump voters who think there’s like another version of Trump, who goes to meetings, consumes information, asks pointed questions, and offers considered guidance.

    Never mind that everyone who works with him says, “nope - Rally Trump is the only version of Trump.” Those voters still believe it.

    Last night really should have been the big October Trump fuck-up -- but it won't be. He's doing a town hall now in Chicago. Fox and CNN have it, MSBC does not.

    Think about TV news. Spend 20 minutes or so scaring the bejesus out of people, interspersed with ads that will "cure" all the ills of society, drugs, investments, insurance to keep them safe - and then at the end a small video of a cute animal at a zoo somewhere to keep people from doing something drastic over the next 23 and half hours.

    "Is Biden too old?" started long before the debate. If anything, the debate awakened Democrats to the reality.

    And it's not like "nobody in the national media" is questioning Trump's mental fitness.
