78 yrs old and the same IQ

With Obama care he'd have his 24/7 day care for free already.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

Yeah, but so would other people he doesn't like. Better we all suffer, but at least someone else suffers more.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 day ago

I'm impressed, to be honest, "amorphous" is probably the biggest word I've ever heard him use.

[–] [email protected] 49 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I love how the guy hears this insanity, immediately looks down at the ground, like "uh oh" and then over at the woman like "you heard that too, right?"

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago

And she just looks back going

it is like a stove, yes 🙂

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 day ago

I laughed out loud at his reaction

“Wait… is this guy an idiot??”

[–] [email protected] 94 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Haven't watched the video, but honestly, the most surprising part of that quote for me is that he seems to have correctly used the word "amorphous"

[–] [email protected] 21 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Except it sounds like he’s talking about energy—as in power for equipment like a stove. Energy isn’t amorphous at all. There’s pretty clear types, sources and distribution methods.

Either he’s misusing “amorphous” or he doesn’t understand energy.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 day ago

~~Either~~ he’s misusing “amorphous” ~~or~~ and he doesn’t understand energy.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He likely meant "ubiquitous". Then again, with the wavy hands...

For those that know, is it normal for dementia-like diseases to drop cognition this fast? Is exhaustion exacerbating it?

My grandma crashed really hard, really quickly after her husband died. I don't know if it's the norm, but it can happen.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 days ago

Nails amorphous, gets the concept of stove wrong.

Weird weirdo is weird.

His staffers should be charged with elder abuse for making these rallies continue

Let em cook

I love how uncomfortable the fan is. Never meet your heroes, eh fucknut?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Now he smells and hears the shit. Maybe he will think”hmm maybe they’re right”. We can only hope.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Never happen. Best case scenario is "maybe I'm not into politics anymore"

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

I'd take the w.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 days ago (2 children)

"Fan," isn't that the guy that got arrested in the Carolinas for being and armed militia and targeting FEMA workers? Or did that guys mug shot just happen to look just like this guy

He just wanted to steal glances at hot lady. They don't usually let him get that close

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago (4 children)

The “hot lady” is Sage Steele acting as moderator.

Trump kept calling her Paige. She chose to ignore those multiple mistakes.

You just love to see it. While asked about cognitive decline, Trump responded with these gem quotes such as “I’ve got no cognitive.” As well as stating he “aced two cognitive tests, no one’s ever done that before.”

What is he talking about again ?

[–] [email protected] 45 points 2 days ago (3 children)

He’s talking about how energy is a stove, if you make donuts.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 days ago (4 children)
[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 days ago (6 children)

Maybe if you don’t make donuts.

Let's go to the list, maybe it's a person? woman? man? camera? tv?

No, none of those? Oh well, here's 40 minutes of awkward swaying to a bunch of random music that we have ready to play for some reason.

Arnold Palmer

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

He is trying to say that we use energy (presumably he is talking specifically about fossil fuels) for everything and in ways that people may not even realize it. He is saying that without fossil fuels society can't function.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Quite a thorough job of sane-washing here

He almost sounds like he's going to start talking about auras and spiritual healing, but it quickly turns into getting a donut delivery

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

He’s manifesting donuts.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago (2 children)

He's true if you're talking about dark energy

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Don't try and explain dark energy to this dimwit. He'll try and blame the economy on it or something.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Ah I see we forgot to look at donuts in our search for dark energy

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

With this guy, more like dank energy.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 days ago

It's like he he's Bruce Lee, but really he just wants a donut.

This is the classic dementia "word salad". I can sort of understand and follow the thread of what he was trying to say but to most observers it's going to be a series of intelligible words that add up to have no meaning.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

To be fair, that pretty much describes the information communicated to any Trump supporter listening to anyone say anything. They listen for vibes, not meaning.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 days ago

Mr. Finite Battery Heart aficionado at his best. Ugh.
