The only problem is that the MAGAts think he is speaking in tongues.

Regular church attendance has declined steadily since the turn of the century. Today almost 6 out of 10 Americans seldom or never attend any religious service, 20% attend weekly and an additional 20% attend on a monthly basis. A real head scratcher, huh? Maybe there is a good reason.

” As it relates to marriage and family, Fundamentalist Christian Republicans are all in on promoting strict gender roles as a mythic story: Mother is submissive, gentle, hardworking, uncomplaining, and always heroically pregnant. Father is the head of the family, a servant-leader whose primary directive is to dispense the word of God and defend family and honor with guns. They see themselves as white pioneers in a godforsaken wilderness. No other family construct is recognized as legitimate.” Yet the man they worship does not adhere to this construct, nor does he practice what he preaches to them.

These Christians are unbending, unyielding and quite strict in their interpretation of the bible when convenient. They are unwilling to concede that the bible is subject to interpretation having been fought over for all of eternity. The Bible is described as any collection of the primary religious texts of Christianity or Judaism. There are many different types of bibles in the world and within each type there are various translations. Depending on what religion you conform to will influence what kind of bible you use. After all, if trump can have his own bible to hustle, they certainly are not going to question the authenticity of his ‘gospel’. God how they love their Orange Jesus.

I'm hoping he sundowns all the way to the the land of no return by 10-30-2024 and stays that way. Everyone including his cult will see what a drooling blubbering incomprehensible blob he is but it will be too late to replalce him. Joe Biden will win by 99.9% of the popular and the electoral vote. Trump will be placed into a mental hospital/prison for the last of his days. And we all lived happily ever after. Oh and plan 2025 goes up in flames, The End.

TRUMPS TYPE OF MENTAL DECLINE LEADS TO EARLY DEATH

“More questions are being raised about trump's mental decline, noting signs of physical deterioration that should require testing for possible Behavioral Variant Fronto-Temporal Dementia (FTD).

According to Dr. Elizabeth Zoffman, a forensic psychiatrist, trumps mental deterioration goes beyond his growing problems stringing sentences together. Other psychiatrists have recently brought up concerns about his speech, highlighting word substitution and nonsense words – known as paraphasia.

Pressed over whether what the former president appears to be exhibiting is reversible, she replied, "FTD is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that leads to progressive deterioration and early death.” RAWSTORY.

His word problems are older than that. Who can forget "covefe" and "hamberder".

The Orange Menace has said several times that he wants to debate Biden. Yes, please. Let everyone see in real time how bad his demented mind is. No commercials.

How is this possible that we are letting a man with clear signs of dementia run for President??? I saw clear signs of dementia in 2016 & they have gotten much worse

I cannot take much more of this. Hoping the upcoming trial pushes all of his systems over the edge and that loaded diaper wearing POS strokes out and dies already.

From Seth Abramson:

MAJOR BREAKING NEWS: In Criminal Violation of Logan Act, Former President Donald Trump Attempts to Supersede Authority of U.S. President Joe Biden and Threaten Iran’s President Directly

NOTE: Under then-President Trump, America was seconds from a full-blown war with Iran in early 2020 after Trump assassinated an Iranian general, lied about what he had done and why, and then said the hundreds of traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) U.S. soldiers suffered following Iran’s retaliation for the assassination were mere “headaches.” When Trump says that Iran would not attack America were he president, he is clawing open the mouths of hundreds of still-injured U.S. service-members and spitting inside them, pretending that their serious injuries never occurred on his watch or even occurred at all.

We are witnessing what happens when a psychopath experiences Alzheimer’s…a double whammy in mental illness circles. He should be committed to a psychiatric hospital and be on lockdown due to his dangerous nature of fomenting violence and chaos. It would actually be the most humane solution for him. And for all of us, frankly.

WOW. I've listened to his crazy ramblings before but this one "Adlingthins?" Jesus. We cant allow this crazy fuck anywhere near the nuclear codes. Wait. He probably sold those, too...or they're still buried in a box in that nasty ass bathroom. I'm hopeful for tomorrow.

This week Jay Kuo interviewed a mental health professional who heads the group Duty to Warn, about an analysis of Trump's mental health status. While I knew that he probably had dementia, thanks to this Substack here and all of the pieces that Jeff does where he has clips of Trump, and I was pretty sure he had aphasia when Jeff started focusing on his speech difficulties, making me wonder if he had had a stroke, but John Gartner makes predictions about where Trump is headed mentally that are frightening in the same vein that the image of a president with Alzheimers is frightening. Given that my father-in-law had diagnosed dementia, my mother in law had it as did my aunt, I have a good idea what it looks like when you are still able to be sweet and nice. I have not had anyone with Alzheimers, but I know people who do have this and I have heard their stories. Actually that is not true, the mom of a former boyfriend, with whom I had a great conversation this summer at a party, took her own life because she was diagnosed with Alzheimers. She was a member of the Hemlock Society and she had vowed to do it before it progressed to far. So, a mutual friend told me she went under her own terms. In any case, she had a masters in Geriatric care, and that is what made her not want to live through Alzheimers. She did not do this lightly. It makes me think of what she knew that she wanted to avoid. It is irresponsible of the media to not even mention his ditherings, let alone his hostile anger. https://statuskuo.substack.com/cp/143502745

Everyone should be spreading the word about Trump and his mental deterioration and where that is likely to lead. No matter how much you want conservative policies, you should not want to put a person in the oval office who has his finger on the red button who cannot understand the consequences of his actions, and is very likely to push the button. That is I suspect the truth behind why Putin would rather have Biden in the White house as should any human being on this planet who is not suicidal.

The stupidity-fueled hypocrisy just never stops with these fuck weasels. This today from my idiotic moronic dip-shit of a "representative" after the Iran attack: "Iran’s drone attack is a direct result of this Administration’s weak leadership on the global stage. " Blah fucking blah. I remember vividly when the diaper stain pulled us out of the Iran nuclear deal. I thought there's no way his advisors would let him do something that stupid and dangerous...oh the good old days of naivete.

The good news is that the election is very far away in Alzheimer's time. He is in big slide territory.

I'm seriously hoping he testifies in the Manhattan case. Maybe they could schedule it in the late afternoon for real entertainment value.

About half the country prefers to ignore reality on a pretty much continuing basis and on a cavalcade of topics, and including, but not limited to: climate change, male un-fully-formed-brain-induced-violence and related tendencies towards mass murder, guns, white supremacy and increasing racism, vaccinations for the we're-all-in-this-together benefit to mankind, women's basic human rights, we are all immigrants, human decency, and that the Walking Orange Human Diaper Stain should have been tossed into an unpadded cell fucking YEARS AGO.
