Does Trump have dementia? So what. Doesn't matter. He's an extreme danger to the entire world whether he has dementia or not. Trump might be the way he is for any one of a number of reasons. He could have syphilis or be just plain stark raving insane but only the bottom line matters. He could have a head full of enough worms to make even RFK Jr. or Alex Jones appear sane by comparison. If Trump has dementia or some other affliction, I see no evidence that he is or will ever be suffering from it. Only the rest of us will be. What I do see is that something is now encouraging his full evil to reveal and assert itself even more intensely than ever before, and his 70,000,000 or so voters have no problem with that. It is they who show every sign of dementia, at least as much as their Dear Leader, and they've shown it to us for the past 8 years, at least! So, who is a greater menace to society?
I mean, let's get real, did Trump's voters ever have a problem with him being a traitor? Did they have a problem with him calling for Russian help? Did they have a problem with his Ukraine machinations? Did they have a problem with his deal with Putin that allowed his friend to bomb our Kurdish allies? Did they have a problem with the virulent racism that he has openly displayed for decades and even shown it in full page newspaper ads? Did they have a problem with that "grab 'em by the pussy" tape? Hell no. To our Republican neighbors, these things are glorious attributes!
Did Trump's voters have a problem with their Dear Leader launching a murderous violent mob at the Capitol Building to kill cops and come within literally inches of murdering the Vice President, Speaker Of The House, and who knows how many others? The answer to all of this is obviously 'no' and the proof is in the words and protective actions of the people they sent to Washington to act as puppets on their behalf. When the people they sent to Washington to be their voice voted to protect Trump by acquitting him of the crimes laid out in his two impeachment trials, they applauded and Trump didn't even need a bloody glove stunt. They applauded just as they will applaud any other time he is let off the hook, whether it's by a hung jury or a Supreme Court owned by Nazi billionaires. To them, it is what he is, not what he has.
An interesting topic. When trump is fuhrer for a while and loses what's left of it, who will be the shadow fuhrer and what will that mean.
When reagan's alzheimers became acute, nancy became defacto proxy. That wasn't lethal to the republic. But give stevie miller or someone like that the power of the puppeteer... camps, "showers" and ovens is a real probability.
But y'all have refused to do better than your hapless worthless feckless corrupt neoliberal fascist pussies who have refused to be a remedy for any nazi evil AND have contributed much of their own evil... for 56 years. So what do you care.
