Trump, 79, Sparks Dementia Concerns With Weird Cold War Comment

.......... sparks?

I hate it here. Fucker has been riddled with syphilis and shitting himself since the 1980s and we allowed him to take the presidency twice.

Don't forget the child rapes.
- I won't shut up about it.
  I had to explain to my father that, because of the wording of the new york penal code, the only reason that trump isn't a convicted rapist is that the defendant could not assert on the stand whether Donald Trump penetrated her with his penis or his finger. Digital rape is a sexual assault charge. Rape needs a penis.
Smoldering dementia
Bush fire dementia
That evidently resonates with republican voters
- he speaks to their cognitive ability
Are there citations for this? I’m genuinely asking, for context and so I can feel comfortable repeating it.
Edit: I don’t understand why this deserves a downvote. Im not defending Trump. I’m not trolling. I legit wanna hear stories about Trump shitting himself and the signs he has syphilis.
- You ask for logic in a place of feelings. People are here to hate, not tot think.

Child rapist has Alzheimer's... duh.

Motherfucker should be removed from office. Between bootlickers & insanely spineless politicians it'll never happen.

~~Motherfucker~~ Daughterfucker should be removed from office.
FTFY.
Release the Trump/Epstein Files, or just eject the Pedophile in Chief from the whitehouse.
Alzheimer's
Neurosyphilis, probably.
- Better.
It would take all 20 Republican seats to get flipped in 2026 to have any chance at all of removing Trump cuz you know not a single fucking republican will vote to remove his ass.
- They might. It's political suicide to turn on him one at a time. But they're not all idiots.
  If some of them see an opportunity, they might turn. It just needs to be coordinated and effective. Because if you take that shot, you better not miss.

The president's age was all the news could talk about until Biden dropped out. Suddenly it wasn't a problem anymore.

Also! Inflation and whether or not it was the president's fault, and all the Palestine protests and how Democrats (only Democrats) were facing a lot of heat for their support of Israel. Almost as if our media is corrupted by partisan influences that are trying to mislead and influence people, and it works shockingly well.
Meanwhile trump is 2.5 years younger than Biden was when he dropped out, and has 3.5 years to go. So, the president's age should be an even bigger issue then it was then, instead of disappearing altogether as an issue.

During his campaign last year, Trump thought that Johnny Carson was still alive and available to take back the Tonight Show.

Not a peep from the media or even Lemmy. It was, "Biden senile."

He thinks Hannibal Lecter is real, dead, and a fan of his. He's obviously fictional, neither the character in any media he's been portrayed in or any of the actors who portrayed him have died, and the character's second most well known trait (you know, after the whole cannibal thing) is his absolute disdain for rude, vulgar people, and none of the actors have displayed a fondness for Donald either. His closing message before the election was about how much he loved deceased golfer Arnold Palmer's apparently enormous dick.
- He kept bringing up Hannibal Lector because he doesnt know the difference between an insane asylum and political asylum.
- His campaign really fell apart there near the end. It was way worse than pretty much everyone realizes. He would just abruptly quit ranting and start dancing to the same song repeatedly.
- That is what I don't get big Biden fud anybody that he would have been crucified, but Trump not a peap.

Why are we using not having dementia as the intellectual benchmark for someone to lead a country. Dude can’t read or do basic maths let alone understand more complex economics or geopolitics.

Even when he fails the dementia test we will resort to simply checking for a pulse, and I bet once he dies it will be covered up for as long as possible.

You know, I wonder how far they'll take medical technicalities in the future. Could they keep the current SCOTUS on the bench for 200 years as a morbid ship of Theseus because it's a lifetime appointment? Just replace their organs with machinery as they fail?
What if Roberts' brain-in-a-jar occasionally drifted into sentience just to mouthlessly scream about how disappointed he is that nobody respects the court anymore? It would at least make me feel a little better.
Had to be provided briefings in infographic and have it explained because his brain is fuckin putty.

But no concern about him being a rapist and a pedophile and GIVING ALASKA TO RUSSIA???

Resident. Just let it happen. I don't know how folks would actually respond.

Not surprising. Anyways, release the Epstein files you old demented child fucker.

I've been "concerned" about his mental health since 2015

I was never concerned ..... I always knew he was an idiot ... now, not only is he an idiot .. he's an old demented idiot
And the best part is ... the best and brightest of America decided he was the man for the top job!
- No, “the best and brightest” just make up a much smaller percentage of the electorate than was necessary.
  At this point I’m also not convinced the convicted fraudster and his white-supremacist gang of ghouls simply flat-out rigged the election while the “both sides” folks tried hard not to notice.

LoL Stupid LIBTarDs! I DIDNT care when he RAPED CHILDREN ON EPSTEIN ISLAND so WHY would I care when he HAS DIMINTIA!

-Republicans who made fun of Biden's Dementia!

A White House spokesperson wrote the following statement, in part: “Joe Biden started this brutal war, and President Trump is trying to stop the killing.”

No, Dementia Donnie is standing in the nearby carwash wrapped in tissue paper trying to play checkers with a rubber chicken as one of play pieces.

When he talked about prisons he was going on about Alcatraz and sing sing, like were in the days of the shawshank redemption or something

How can you tell if someone that dumb has dementia?

Corporate News Sewers: Hey now that trump is predisent again, doesn't it seem like he’s so demented people should be concerned?

Everyone not a MAGAt: (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

The first part of that headline really excited me for a second

Was it “the Cold War never ended,” because that’s actually true 🤣

He... he thinks he CAN get Moscow and "Leningrad" for free? 🤔 You don't trade cities like sports players...

I thought the long winded rambling about medians in the middle of his conference declaring martial law on Washington was a pretty big red flag

Petrograd gang

I've been reading the "Politician I Don't Like Has Dementia" for 40 fucking years.

Please either put up or shut up.

It's even worse when one side in it's entirety says "this person has dementia and is unfit to lead", then immediately chooses to vote for the person that's roughly the same age instead of somebody two decades younger.
When the progressive or leftist or liberal group says it, they mean it. When the right wing media says it, they are just repeating the normal propaganda news cycle.
- When the progressive or leftist or liberal group says it, they mean it.
  Biden, Sanders, Trump... :-/
  Like, it's clear the issue isn't simply age.
- two decades younger.
  We need somebody four decades younger than the current president.
Show us the way.
Yeah, because this is a gerantocacy. A lot of politicians in both parties are too old and they have been for a long time.

Im all for calling out Trump for his senility as much as the next guy, but this is kind of reaching to call a dementia moment...even I didnt know Leningrad wasn't a city anymore. And im in my 30s, far from senile..Hell, I didnt know it was called Saint Petersburg before. And it was only renamed St. Petersburg in the 90s sometime. Probably something you'd only know if you are actually a Russian citizen, or live there.

Or you know... googled it just now and read the Wikipedia article on it.

Edit: Wow, didnt realize calling out an article for its bullshit would be a controversial opinion. I'd ask my mom if she knows where St. Petersburg and Leninburg are at, but I already know she wouldn't know they were the same city...ya'll can stop telling me how common knowledge this is now. I dont care.

Edit 2: just for funsies, I asked my mom (in her 60s btw) if she knew where Leningrad was...she had no idea.

No, if you were old enough when the Berlin Wall came down and had any interest in world news, you would know about Leningrad and St. Petersburg. I guess if you're young enough, that's not part of the zeitgeist for you. I'm kind of surprised you'd heard of Leningrad, to be honest.
For someone with Trump's upbringing, not knowing this is either dementia or he's always been an idiot. Given when he was running in 2016 he didn't know the difference between Hezbollah and Hamas, I would lean toward idiot.
- I only know of Leningrad from the glut of WW2 games. But I know nothing but the name, and it being associated with WW2.
  I might even still be wrong!
- Yeah, I was still learning to talk when the Berlin wall came down...
You’re not the president
Probably something you’d only know if you are actually a Russian citizen, or live there.
It's generally known. It's not an obscure fact, at least outside of the USA. I agree with you that this is weak evidence of dementia. But since this is a basic fact any politician dealing with Russia should know, it's at least evidence (if we needed any) that Trump is not qualified for the job of President.
- It's not obscure in the USA, either.
I don't know, I would say after the fall of the Soviet Union its renaming was fairly common knowledge if you lived through that (even outside the former Soviet States)
- I mean, sure, I lived through it, but I was still learning to walk and talk at that point so...
The... the fucking president of the United States should know about St. Petersburg. I don't care if it's senility or not bothering to read or learn anything since the 1980s.
Or you know... If you're the president of the USA.
I had to look it up because my brain was insisting that Vladivostok changed names (it didn't, shut it scumbag brain!)
List of Russian city name changes. More than I expected:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_renamed_cities_and_towns_in_Russia
YOU don't have to know. But a president not knowing is terrifying. He has to have at least some knowledge of the countries he's dealing with. It's his job.
Most Americans, if you ask about "St. Petersburg" are going to go "Florida?"
- I'm starting to think it was a regional thing. I went to school when it was still Leningrad, and we learned about Hegel, Marx, Lenin, the Bolsheviks, the Russian Revolution, and the renaming of St. Petersburg. Maybe that's why it stuck more when it was changed back.
  Even old New York was once New Amsterdam!
