My question is this: do the handlers and family of DJT not listen when he speaks?

Do they just guide him onto a stage and then put headphones on until it's time to guide him off? Seriously, how can they listen to what he says and not realize that he is deteriorating, that he is an incoherent, babbling idiot? Why are they not horrified? The "speech" at the UN was such an embarrassment to our country. Why are they not embarrassed?

And of course he insulted London. He insulted cities in our country right to the residents' faces when he was campaigning and the dumbasses voted for him anyway. I guess it's true, you can't fix stupid, but you can't even laugh at it anymore because it is doing serious damage to our country and its people, reputation and standing in the world.

Like I said in another post: every. single. day is another day of WTF?

Of course they do. His handlers are the ones feeding him his bullshit. maxsolomon Sep 2025 #1

Who doesn't listen? Ivanka, Tiffany, and Melania; they've chosen to remove themselves from the circus as much as possible (but the stink is on them and will never wash off).

Eric & Jr. applaud.

The rest means nothing to them.
The humiliation, damage, hurt, pain to the American people are simply
not on their radar.
