Politics
For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.
Rule 1: Posts have the following requirements:
▪️ Post articles about the US only
▪️ Title must match the article headline
▪️ Recent (Past 30 Days)
▪️ No Screenshots/links to other social media sites or link shorteners
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. One or two small paragraphs are okay.
Rule 3: Articles based on opinion (unless clearly marked and from a serious publication-No Fox News or equal), misinformation or propaganda will be removed.
Rule 4: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a jerk. It’s not acceptable to say another user is a jerk. Cussing is fine.
Rule 5: Be excellent to each other. Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, will be removed.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7. No conjecture type posts (this could, might, may, etc.). Only factual. If the headline is wrong, clarify within the body.

What the fuck is going on with this dude. I used to think he was a people's candidate just doing his own thing, but he's made several bizarre and stupid decisions that I'm aware of.

He had a stroke and I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't recover as well as this article seems to believe. It's not uncommon to have personality changes after injury (in this case ischemic injury) to the brain.
It does seem like it all started around stroke time. I definitely have seen people with brain issues who can still "function" in terms of showing up to work and doing what they're supposed to, but whose decision-making suddenly becomes really off-kilter in some scenarios.
i think the stroke rewired his brain.
