It isn’t exactly a secret anymore. It should be a headline by now – “Donald Trump is losing it.” This is something that has been persistently discussed in political circles, across social media, and even in hushed whispers among friends and family. Yet, the mainstream media seem avidly resistant to framing this narrative, and I find myself asking why they seem hesitant to make this an important story.
To paint the picture only from my observation, Trump has proven time and again his disposition to indulging his most baseless and incoherent rants. His vocalized thoughts are chaotic, bordering on nonsensical, and often leave people bewildered, asking, “did he just say that?”… Continue reading
As I sit here and read all the comments and speculation surrounding Donald Trump’s recent slurred speech at a rally, I can’t help but feel a mix of concern and amusement. Concern, because if the President of the United States is indeed experiencing a decline in mental and physical health, it raises serious questions about his ability to effectively lead the country. Amusement, because it seems like every day brings a new headline about Trump’s cognitive abilities, and I can’t help but chuckle at the irony of it all.
First and foremost, let’s address the impact of these rumors and discussions on Trump’s strongman image.… Continue reading
‘He doesn’t look well’: Video of Trump’s ‘dragging’ right leg sparks accusations of hidden health concern
In the never-ending battle of political mudslinging, it seems that not even one’s health is off-limits. The recent video of former President Donald Trump allegedly dragging his right leg has sparked a flurry of accusations and concerns about his hidden health issues. As a society, we should ask ourselves whether we should be fixated on the physical well-being of our political leaders or focus on more pressing matters.
One comment suggests that the media should be reporting on the facts when it comes to Trump.… Continue reading
Is the Nickname ‘Donald Rapist Trump’ Defamatory? | The former president was found liable for behavior that a judge said is commonly understood as “rape.” So why not call him what he apparently is?
In recent discussions about the former president, Donald Trump, the topic of whether or not it is defamatory to refer to him as the nickname ‘Donald Rapist Trump’ has arisen. The issue at hand stems from a court case involving writer E. Jean Carroll, who accused Trump of sexually assaulting her in the mid-1990s.
The court case resulted in a judge finding that Carroll’s allegations against Trump were established as a fact, thereby labeling him as a rapist.… Continue reading
As I watched the latest debacle unfold, I couldn’t help but think – how has it come to this? Former president Donald Trump speaking publicly and appearing to confuse the roles of two prominent women politicians – he suggested Nikki Haley was in charge on January 6, the day the U.S Capitol was stormed; a responsibility that fell under Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s purview. The cognitive decline seemingly implied by this mix-up is deeply concerning, bordering on alarming as it perhaps signifies the initial stages of degeneration.
One cannot simply brush off such glaring errors, especially when they come from someone who once occupied the highest office in the nation.… Continue reading
A ‘whale’ of a tale: Trump continues to distort cognitive test he took. The Montreal Cognitive Assessment, a test aimed at detecting dementia or cognitive decline, never included the combination of animals Trump identified this week.
As I read through the comments and opinions surrounding Trump’s distorted claims about the cognitive test, one thing becomes clear: there is significant concern about his mental health and cognitive abilities. Some suggest that he may be suffering from advanced dementia or the effects of a stroke. Others argue that his frequent cognitive tests indicate a hidden medical condition, one that his inner circle is attempting to hide.… Continue reading
As someone who prides themselves on being a moderate, I find it quite intriguing to watch the political landscape unfold as we approach the 2024 election. A crucial element in this unfolding saga is the ability, or I should say, inability, of Donald Trump to retain moderate support. There’s something particularly bewildering and perturbing about watching his waning appeal amongst procrastinating Republicans, independents, and undecided voters—people like me—who were once hopeful that an outsider might inspire change, but have since been disillusioned by the chaotic and divisive behemoth that is the “Trump legacy”.
And the Republican party isn’t helping the cause either.… Continue reading
To the many of us who have been paying attention none of these fascist tactics come as a surprise. President Trump’s words & actions over the summer months were horrifying. He has incited and supported violence several times.
- He shared a video that said “the only good Democrat is a dead Democrat.”[1]
- He tweeted a video of a Trump supporter yelling “White power.”[2]
- He tweeted that “when the looting starts the shooting starts.”[3] A saying that is historically tied to a racist Miami police chief from the 60’s.[4]
- Police in Washington, D.C. brutally dispersed an entirely peaceful crowd exercising their first amendment.
