Trump's 'word vomit' praise of Putin show he's 'spiraled down' mentally: Alexander Vindman

...................

Donald Trump appears to be in mental decline, the former director for European affairs on his National Security Council explained on Thursday.

Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman (US Army, retired) made his comments on MSNBC after Trump bragged about his friendship with Vladimir Putin during an interview on Fox News with Sean Hannity.

MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace played a clip of Trump's appearance and asked Vindman for his analysis.

"Honestly, it was word vomit, is what we heard, what that clip showed," Vindman said. "It's shocking that he didn't have the intellect, the intelligence to have the self-preservation to criticize somebody that the vast majority of the American public despises and identifies as a barbarian, as a war criminal. So, I mean, he's always been his own worst enemy and he continues to do so now."


Vindman then directly questioned Trump's mental fitness.

"I think he's incapable of leading, he was incapable of leading while in government, and I think he's devolved. I guess my question is, 'Does he have the faculties?' As bad as he was in the first Trump administration, he seems to have spiraled down. I don't know if that's, you know — if age or whatever it is, that it's getting to him now, that he's really incapable of piecing together coherent thoughts," he explained.....................

"Donald Trump appears to be in mental decline," said Alex Vindman on MSNBC today in reaction to Trump's failure to condemn Putin.
"What we heard from him was word vomit ... he didn't have the intellect or intelligence to criticize somebody the vast majority of America despises -"

The mental vacuity that ShitGibbon is demonstrating should absolutely disqualify him from any future office.

Nonsensical dribble use to be considered the sign of stupid and incapable person. Americans use to universally think a person unable to put a sentence together could not ever run government. But ever since Limpballs and McCane brought the air head Palin front stage, Americans seem fine with talking nonsense and gibberish.

TFG seems to have embraced talking like a stupid fool much more than the idiot Palin. His supporters will always love the rediculus babble coming out of his mouth, but he really is one of the most ignorant fools to ever try to run our government. And he's sounding worse and worse every day. Soon, he'll be down to a handful of one sylable words and grunting. And GOPers will be fine with it.

Gibberish for GOPers.

As long as you throw in the key words and phrases, the key words and phrases MAGAs are already conditioned (groomed, if you will) to react to, then you will sound like a leader to them.

... even that moron learned how to sound like the comforting propaganda that MAGAts loved.

Mixed in with Putin fanfare, which I think he mostly did on his own for personal/financial reasons.
