“We will institute the powerful death penalty for drug dealers, where each dealer is responsible for the death, during their lives, of 500 people or more,” he said.
"Mothers will never again be forced to watch their children overdosing in hosp … and we will never allow mothers to watch their child hopelessly dying in their arms screaming, ‘What can I do, what can I do? Help me God, what can I do?’ We are a nation whose once revered airports are a dirty, crowded mess,” Trump continued, pivoting suddenly.
“You sit and wait for hours and then are notified that the plane won’t leave, that they have no idea when they will. Where ticket prices have tripled. They don’t have the pilots to fly the planes, they don’t seek qualified air traffic controllers, and they just don’t know what the hell they are doing.”
“We will take over the horribly run capital of our nation in Washington, D.C., and clean it up, renovate it, and rebuild our capital city, so that it is no longer a nightmare of murder and crime. But rather it will become the most beautiful capital anywhere in the world,” Trump said.
“Right now, if you leave Florida, ‘Oh, let’s go, darling, let’s look at the Jefferson Memorial, let’s look at the Washington Monument, let’s go and look at some of the beautiful scenes,’ and you end up getting shot, mugged, raped,” he warned, promising that he’d run the city “tough and smart.”
Watch Here:
Watch how this story disappears within a day. But the trolls will still be talking about Biden in the debate until next January.
Difference is, no republican cares if Trump is mentally fit to be president, nor will being mentally unfit cause him to lose the election.
Democrats and Biden on the other hand…
It gets old seeing the people with power continue to use it delicately so as not to upset people, while also not doing a goddamn thing about the opposition who FULLY abuses everything they can touch.
It’s always the same thing
One side speaks respectfully of the other
one side doesn’t push hardline questions and issues when they know can get the other side to say something that shoots themselves in the foot
One side tries to keep the peace
One side treats people with kiddie gloves
One side has reasonable policies and goals, or just simply doesn’t change bad ones
The other side however, is constantly spraying a firehose of bullshit all over everything at every opportunity by constantly sabotaging the entire country in order to “one up” some imaginary opponent, actively calling for persecution AND prosecution of anyone who doesn’t fit their cookie cutter mould (that they themselves don’t need to fit into), punishes anyone for trying to make the country better, and has no qualms with lying, cheating, sabotaging, straight up committing massive amounts of felonies, all for no better reason than the infantile desire to be in opposition of something that helps another person.
no republican cares if Trump is mentally fit to be president
This issue, in this case, isn’t mental fitness. Trump’s comments are right in line with what he was saying four, eight, and forty years ago.
He loves the idea of lynchings as a tool of criminal justice enforcement, particularly when the lynchings target the political underclass. He loves the idea of accusing entire populations of violent criminality, particularly when those communities don’t support his political goals. And he loves the spectacle of it all - the pomp and circumstance of the courts leveraged against his opponents, the “beautification” of a gentrified neighborhood, and the fixation on tourism as an end goal of any socio-economic renovation.
Republicans eat this shit up now, just like when they ate up Michael Bloomberg’s Disneyfication of downtown New York or the massive tourist traps that Nevada and Arizona and Florida has been turned into. Conservatives dream of living their lives in one big resort community, Donald Trump knows it, and this is his promise to do to DC what was done to so many other Reagan-Era cities and states.
To say he’s mentally unfit would imply he wasn’t vibing right along with the tens of millions of white nationalist suburbanites who think the whole country should be a country club that pampers them 24/7.
The mental fitness question isn’t because of his view that we’re already in a Mad Max hellscape only he can lead the true believers out of.
The mental fitness question is because he sounds like he’s having a stroke anytime he has to string together more than 2 sentences.
Why would it disappear? Everyone’s talking about it, more and more every day. The Internet is exploding with demands for trump to step down.
That’s what everyone’s telling me. Everyone I know says it.
Nah, I can’t continue. I don’t even know his rhythm of idiot logic enough to copy it.
Any source? I didn’t see anything like that.
Media: BIDEN OLD
there’s nothing trollish about it. first of all, i don’t understand why some liberals are crying so much about TFG fumbling and no one calling for him to drop out.
WHO’S SUPPOSED TO CALL FOR IT?
his base? they love him and don’t care.
his opposition? why? he’s a terrible candidate most people hate. why would his opposition want him to drop out? so that a less hated person replaces him and guarantees the republican win? you do know Clinton was the only person in the world who could’ve lost to him, and now Biden is trying super hard to be the second, right?
the reason people are calling for Biden to drop out is because he’s polling unfavorably against TFG. the reason they’re not calling for TFG to drop out is because he’s a much hated person who would’ve surely and easily lost if only someone looking vaguely alive would run against him.
no.
Where is he “polling at 35%”?
I believe the meme should say “approval rating at 35%”
Edit: the OP corrected me below
So the whole argument the poster is making is based on a general misunderstanding of what’s going on?
Yep. Tropical is a troll account.
Which is not out of place for a president at this point in their first term.
Approval ratings at the end of first term:
- Harry S. Truman: 32%
- Dwight D. Eisenhower: 59%
- Lyndon B. Johnson: 49%
- Richard Nixon: 24%
- Gerald Ford: 53%
- Jimmy Carter: 34%
- Ronald Reagan: 63%
- George Bush: 56%
- William J. Clinton: 66%
- George W. Bush: 34%
- Barack Obama: 59%
- Donald Trump: 34%
- Joe Biden: 36%
Idk dude, of the four below 40%, 3 of them did not see a second term.

Edit: Anyone upvoting this comment is now cursed by my stupidity
Uh, what?
Removing trump and Biden from the list, since one of them will see a second term, of the other 4 only Carter didn’t see a second term. Truman was only elected President once, but he served as President for almost 8 full years. Nixon won reelection, but resigned before his second term was out.
And even if you go as far as saying that 3 of the 4 didn’t serve 2 full terms… I think it’s highly unlikely either of the 2 current candidates will see the 2028 election.
Yeah I’m just an absolute idiot, that is what’s going on with that comment lmao. You’re right
Still, if you are comfortable with where Biden’s campaign is at this point, if you’re confident that he can win given his current approval and polls…you’re at least lot more confident than me, and a lot more confident than many democratic lawmakers
Are you suggesting that the GoPs bogeyman was tied for third-most popular president?
Tropicals mind
https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/president-general/2024/national/
Ipsos/Reuters is like, the grade A of grade A pollsters.
That’s 36%, not 35%. According to the link you shared overall Biden is polling about 40%, 2.2% behind Trump.
That also shows Trump at 36%, so polling at 36% is pretty good for that tiny subset of the poll you shared.
Here’s a link to the entire poll that you decided not to share for some reason.
Interestingly enough the headline for the poll you didn’t link is “Only Michelle Obama bests Trump as an alternative to Biden in 2024”. I wonder why you went out of your way to obfuscate that.
‘Effing gold Dingdong.
Mockery is the most effective way to beat Blue Maga (imo). We need to show how embarrassing it is to be associated with them.
And calling out the propagandists for their inability to understand the simplest concepts of politics, and their blatant misinformation is the most effecting way to beat MAGA trills.
How many of you get your posts removed for misinformation? Check the mod logs bud. Because from where I sit- the people urging everyone to vote get only their shit removed for bing uncivil and aggressive towards the propagandists urging people not to-
whereas the propagandists get their shit removed for misinformation. CONSTANTLY.
You are the propagandist kiddo, or rather, you are that whom have been so heavily propagandized to, you’ve lost your connection to reality; so from your perspective, everything that disagrees with your world view appears to you to be propaganda, because your connection to reality has been effectively severed.
And specifically thing thing that got called “misinformation”? It was an ground up analysis I did looking at Bidens probability of winning given his current approval rating. I can repost it if you like.
And guess what?
That analysis predicted this exact moment.
It’s unbelievably funny to me how you people cite “analytics” and polls to support your bullshit where you’ve been told time and again that that shit can say whatever you need it to say to support an agenda/argument, or in the case of news media- PROFIT.
Congrats man. You’re the reason you’re getting the news that supports your own beleif. Crazy, right? I know! Bonkers!!!
Everyone needs to vote like polls don’t exist. Plain and simple.
“You people”
People like Nancy Pelosi or Adam Schiff?
Bro you’ve gaslit yourself into a fantasy land and you just live in denial.
I listened to a podcast yesterday that said the same thing. Most of us were conservative/liberal at some point. What started to change our minds? Many change when our views are mocked by their wider social circles. Maybe not at once, but eventually.
That’s because of his diminished cognitive capacity.
Voters are demanding that trump step down and let another candidate take his place. It’s all over the Internet. I heard he can’t even tie his shoes anymore.
He has visibly struggled with operating a glass of water.
I heard he can’t even tie his shoes anymore.
“Anymore” implies he was able to at some point
Just grab em by the laces
He tries, but the Velcro is getting in the way
I heard it too. And everyone is talking about it. I’m talking about it right now! See?
I saw a comment earlier today calling on trump to resign. Everyone is saying it:
“Don’t you think he looks tired?”
But his voters/supporters love how his mental abilities are lower than theirs
Bigly diminished. The best even.
Trump heard Joe Biden might have dementia so he went out and got even bigger dementia, the best dementia!
People say it all the time, they tell him, he’s got the best dementia, historic really. No airport could ever outshine his monumental brain fog.
Nobody has ever had more diminished cognitive capacity than me, everybody’s saying it. I have the best deficits, just tremendous problems with coherent thought
You sound like my kind of leader! Let’s go, Brandon!! Save this country from all these mouth breathing librarians, let’s go!
I’ve seen a lot of comments saying he should step down. Lots of people talking about how unfit he is for office.
Allow me to increment.
He should step down. Ideally into a pit of lava, but that’s just a stretch goal.
Lots of people talking about how unfit he is for office.
Sadly, these calls aren’t coming from within the party itself. The GOP is fully in lockstep with Trump, while the Dems are - once again - stabbing one another in the back as quickly as they can swing the knives.
Maybe the Hawaiians could volunteer a volcano?
That sounds like a great way to piss off a god, which god would want DRUMF as a sacrifice?
Eris
Y’know what? Fair!

That’s his secret of success. He has the unique ability to fervently believe his own lies. If some other fucker like Cruz or DeSantis lies, you can always see they’re aware of it and cringing inside. That’s why they are never perceived as “authentic” by the moron base.
This is how he has talked since campaigning in 2016, just a random word salad of whatever he thinks will get him attention. Maybe it is getting worse?
I honestly can’t tell because he has been incoherent the whole time, but hoping the media actually stays focused on it for a while.
He’s gotten worse over time. I remember during the 2020 cycle seeing video comparisons even between his 2016 and 2020 debates.
I don’t exactly enjoy going back and watching him talk, but it’s shocking going back and comparing seeing how drastic the change has been.
Here’s a bit of the 2016 RNC debate. Trump is still rude and crass. He’s not coming off as an intellectual, but he’s completing his sentences and making coherent points. He wasn’t getting obviously confused like he has been since- talking about airports being involved in the Revolutionary War, claiming Nikki Haley was responsible for January 6th, the famous rant about his uncle being a genius, etc.
Yeah he’s always said incredibly dumb nonsense, but it sounds significantly more uncontrollable now. I honestly think he sounds more like a dementia patient than Joe Biden does.
Here’s hoping…
Rapid slide into incoherence. RNC convention is going to be interesting.
What slide? He was this incoherent during his presidency. This has been his way of communicating the entire time, and yet people die for him.
The cynic in me believes that the Republicans calling for Biden to have a drug test before the debate was good old projection, and Trump was the one who was actually hopped up on drugs. Can’t ride that pharmaceutical train all the time though.
we will never allow mothers to watch their child hopelessly dying in their arms screaming, ‘What can I do, what can I do? Help me God, what can I do?’
That sounds like what happened to Anti-vaxxers during COVID.
Sounds like a school shooting.
The rapist Dementia Don 34 needs to drop out. He’s too old and his brain is cooked from all the adderall.
and the obvious incurable syphilis
He’s right though. I get shot, mugged and raped at least three times per week in DC. And I’m not even from Florida.
media: why isn’t biden resigning?
Americans have a double-standard. If you profess to be a real politician, stand-up person, and trying to do good you have to appear strong, smart and effective. If you profess to be a fascist and want to hurt other people you can literally do anything and appear to be the dumbest, foulest, most incompetent piece of filth in existence and you won’t lose any support.
Fuck me.
One party, for the most part.
“You sit and wait for hours and then are notified that the plane won’t leave, that they have no idea when they will. Where ticket prices have tripled. They don’t have the pilots to fly the planes, they don’t seek qualified air traffic controllers, and they just don’t know what the hell they are doing.”
Man who flies exclusively on private jets complains about public air travel.
Trump must really think we’re all fucking idiots.
I guess we aren’t really the ones he’s “speaking” to though.
Ok - You’re up NYT editorial board…
Now’s your time to shine…
Hello…?
NYT?
“We will take over the horribly run capital of our nation in Washington, D.C."
Can’t disenfranchise us, we’re already disenfranchised. Give us 2 senators and a representative, then you’ll have something to take away.
Let’s get Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Guam, the Virgin Islands, and the Northern Mariana Islands proper representation as well.
