to general knowledge he is as dumb as a box of rocks. But when it comes to grifting he is absolutely unbelievable.

That Trump may be talking about pollutants. "We're gonna to have clean but it's all flying . . . it's coming through the currents in the air. It all comes. You can, they can name it."

Maybe?

The gibberish factor is bc he doesn't speak in complete thoughts. It's a messed up stream of consciousness.

This isn't new either. I recall reading an unedited version of a WSJ interview where the Don was equally incoherent. Now, we're witnessing the breakdown in public and in real time.

I think the mental instability is ratcheting up.

He will be their nominee. That’s basically decided.

His big advantage in 2016 was free media saturation. His big disadvantage in 2020 was free media saturation. Those COVID press conferences were a disaster. He (they) tried to scare women in the ‘burbs. The ‘burbs are now his and their kryptonite. The Worlds Greatest Salesman 🙄 not only couldn’t close, he failed miserably.

From 2015:

https://www.slate.com/blogs/lexicon_valley/2015/07/31/donald_trump_this_run_on_sentence_from_a_speech_in_sun_city_south_carolina.html

I think it might be more about stress and desperation in his recent remarks than declining mental acuity. He's always been a blubbering dope - I'm not sure he's all that much worse now.

His mouth is outrunning his brain.

Happens all the time with stupid people who have to make it up as they go along.

Just curious what he was talking about, though I doubt context will make it seem any more coherent.

2028 for us will likely be either Gavin Newsom, Gretchen Whitmer, Pete Buttigieg, or Kamala Harris.

2028 for them could be Nikki Haley, Ron DeSantis, Ted Cruz, or Kristi Noem.

He's talking about the electromagnetic catapult system on newer aircraft carriers, the old ones use steam.
