Its getting worse: Joe Scarborough sounds alarm on Trumps rambling and incoherent speech patterns
BRAD REED

President Donald Trumps twin interviews with the Washington Examiners Salena Zito and CBSs John Dickerson have drawn significant controversy and Morning Joe co-host Joe Scarborough is worried.
During his interview with Zito, the president made historically illiterate claims about Andrew Jackson and the Civil War, as he said that Jackson was very angry about the war despite the fact that he died 16 years before it started.
The president also angrily walked out of his interview with Dickerson after the reporter pressed him for evidence to back up his unproven claim that former President Barack Obama had illegally wiretapped him.
Taking stock of both interviews, Scarborough said that his bogus claims about the Civil War and his rambling to John Dickerson were equally concerning. His speech is even more rambling and incoherent than before, Scarborough said. It is getting worse.

You're the guy who let him phone in day after day, tossing him puffballs (softballs would have been tougher).
When people talk about how many billions dollars of free media, you are a huge chunk of that. Or rather, "Yuuuuge".

(34,661 posts)Yesterday someone posted a blurb about a interview with Pence. Pence was pee-oed because he thought Trump would bail in the first month and he would move up to the Big Boy Chair,his exact words.
Had a hunch Joe the Intern Killer would switch horses and appears this is the start. Trash Trump for a few weeks and suddenly his new hero will be Pence.
Watch and see. Comcast is dictating the new message and using their tool in order get their Political Agenda back on track.

But in his day to day job as president where he needs to make sense and have a certain amount of decorum, he is lost. I would love to hear from professionals who have been observing him for a while to confirm if they see a real decline. It sure seems that way to the casual observer.

They have a lot to apologize for but I don't expect to ever get it. Claiming he is declining now won't cut it since it was obvious then the man was not right in his head.

(20,819 posts)Where the fuck were you when Agent Orange's craziness and its danger was more than evident from the very beginning of his 2012 campaign, five fucking years ago? You and Mika all but had a passionate public threesome with him right on the desk of your stupid show, countless times, all through the fucking campaign when it should have been more than evident how crazy and dangerous he was. Well, at least, to those with more than two brain cells to rub together. YOU and your cohort fuckbuddy helped bring this about. So look in the fucking mirror when you're sounding the alarm from now on.
