Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

For comparison, this is how Trump used to talk, back in the 2016 RNC debate.
He's always been an obnoxious and crass New Yorker, never what you'd call an intellectual or academic. But he used to stay on topic, finish sentences, make coherent points, and generally function. Now he's reduced to somehow shouting and mumbling at the same time, confusing names and years, connecting vague concepts together until he gets applause from the audience.
Neurosyphilis is wild
I know I'm gonna get downvoted to hell on Lemmy but it was just a normal speech fumble like everyone has, it was a bit weird that he changed subject like that but overall I wouldn't say "Fumbles Repeatedly in Terrifying Speech", this news to me seems petty and comes of smelling of desperation.

He suddenly remembered that he is against UHC.
“We will institute the powerful death penalty for drug dealers
Meanwhile in Russia:
(Among people who said death penalty should be unbanned) "As a punushment for what crimes do you find death penalty to be acceptable?", multiple answers
Drugs / drug dealing: 3%
Trump's plan is to do nothing more than inflict pain and death on people.

This sounds like one of his more coherent speeches.
