I know the media sane-washes DJT or otherwise tries to make him sound rational when he speaks

but don't the MAGAts read his tweets? They're full of babbling gibberish too. I know he must have somebody who sometimes tweets on his behalf, but they can't edit or sane-wash the ones he sends out when he's all alone at 3:00 a.m. Don't his tweets give them pause? The ones I read scare the hell out of me.

The M$M has lost ALL credibility and I wish their news networks would go to hell along with Donny and his fucking Nazis. They’re throwing gas on the fires that are dumbing down this country.

My uncle is a Republican and he can always explain away everything DJT says or does. Everything. It's unbelievable. I haven't talked politics with him since early in DJT's first term. It's extremely frustrating and a complete waste of time. Life is too short.

On whatever level they have any grey matter left to discern how delusional his tweets are, all they know if that we libs will be "triggered" by it, so they L O V E it.

There is no rational thought process there.
