The Biden-ing of Donald Trump
August 20, 2024 at 1:30 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard

John Heileman: “Political journalism has always struggled to fully capture or cope with Trump when he’s lost the plot—and it’s struggling mightily now. The standard recourse is to embrace euphemism: to say that Harris’s rise has ‘rattled’ or ‘disoriented’ Trump or ‘knocked him off his game,’ that he’s failing to ‘drive a consistent message,’ that he’s ‘unfocused’ or ‘undisciplined.'”

“But if we’re honest about Trump’s public behavior over the past month, there’s no getting around the fact that the words and phrases above aren’t merely euphemisms or modestly inaccurate descriptions of his performances on the stump. These weasel words and phrases are well-intentioned but ultimately misleading bullshit. The Trump on display on the campaign trail in the past month isn’t disoriented, unfocused, or undisciplined—he’s dotty, doddering, demented, possibly deranged, and clearly disturbed.”

“Which is the point that Trump-watchers far more obsessive than me—coming from widely varying ideological and temperamental orientations—are now making in unison.”[/excerpt]

1. Well, the pundits practically had a picnic after Joe Biden's debate

They were so happy to have negative things to say about him and they just wouldn’t quit. Never hear that about Trump. and he does these insane social media posts that would get anybody else committed to a hospital

[Tweedy]

8. Joe Biden is busting monopolies

and rescuing the left behind counties.

Nobody does that anymore. Our MSM, being the cynical folks they apparently mostly are, concluded doing good things for the USA was a sign of dementia

While being an insurrectionist, like Mr Trump, was a sign he was more self serving like they presumably are.

What else explains such utter nonsense?

[jaxexpat]

15. You are closing in on some extremely awful but actual facts about our 4th estate.

Don't quit now. Evidence of open eyes is good for everyone.

[MustLoveBeagles]

16. I will never forgive the media

For the way they treated Joe.

[Walleye]

19. I am really tired of their lame questions. Such as "did you hear what he said about you"

[MustLoveBeagles]

20. So am I

It's childish gossip.

[Walleye]

23. I guess it's easier for them than actually working, the lazy press

[XanaDUer2]

26. Nor I

[XanaDUer2]

25. They were reveling in it

And they wouldn't stop. It was kick-joe-biden day every day.

Yet trump can talk the craziest, most disjointed shit and its normalized. I've turned off the news pretty much,

[Wounded Bear]

2. He may be getting worse, but he's always been like this since the beginning in 2015...

[PatSeg]

4. True, worse version of the same man

Just imagine what he'll be like in another four years.

[RussellCattle]

3. Sometimes, and with some people, the English language is used most perfectly and it is then....

.....that one must just sit back and admire it and it's best practitioners.

5. Even his lover, Rocket Man Kim, called him 'Dotard'.

[AnotherMother4Peace]

6. trump struggled to say "posthumously" when trying to clarify his "Medal of Honor" remark. He mangled it badly. nt

[hawkeye21]

7. Never forget that beautiful national park . . . "YO-sa-mite" LOL

Check out the video. Trump stumbles over it a few times and finally goes with "YO-sa-mite." What a nut. That was back when he was in the White House and talking about what he was doing to save the national parks. What a moron.

[birdographer]

10. For awhile the park sold t-shirts with a tree on them

and the words "Yo Semite!"--Don't know if they still offer them.

[llmart]

13. It infuriates me that he has the nerve to say he did so much for our National Parks.

He did nothing except for remove protections for these sacred lands. His Project 2025 calls for privatizing and selling off our public lands.

I hate him for many reasons, but this one really ticks me off! I can't foresee anyone who is a nature lover voting for him.

9. ... will a vindictive, vile villain violate voters' vision

Hey y'all, I hear alliteration is back!

[BattleRow]

12. How about

bewitched,bothered and bewildered bastard?

[BradBo]

11. It's apperent that the Crazy Uncle is starting to surface with Trump.

He's yelling at clouds.

[OMGWTF]

14. Possibly deranged???? Definitely deranged!!!!

[RidinWithHarris]

17. To add to the massive media dishonesty, Biden at his worst has never been anywhere close to as deranged as Trump, ever!

Not until Trump pulls down his pants and starts masturbating on stage will there be as big a media feeding frenzy about Trump's mental deterioration as Biden's mere occasional gaffes and lack of energy produced.

Nothing about Biden's mental state has ever hinted in the slightest at a dangerously malignant, self-obsessed personality as Trump shows even when Trump is energetic and semi-coherent.

21. As a former English major,

I loves me some good alliteration! (Okay, that sentence wasn't grammatically correct, but you know what I mean...)

24. Maladjusted, menencing, miserable, muderous, mud-slinging,

moronic, monomaniac


Your turn.

[3catwoman3]

27. Fun with alliteration - my turn

Coarse, crude, common, crass, contemptible and cruel. Just for fun, I’ve alternated adjectives beginning with “c” and “cr.”

[unweird]

28. Dangerously destructive demagogue devolving downward

Deliberately delusional and demented defines the dick named Donald.
