Deteriorating Orange Curd Stumbles And Mispronounce Words At Cabinet Meeting

[HipChick]

Trump was trying to read a statement about the New York terror attack before a cabinet meeting, but he had to keep referring back to his paper, stumbled over words, and mispronounced the word diversity repeatedly.
Something looked off with Trump. The White House has admitted that the President has lost a step in the past year, but he looks like he is more than a step behind. Donald Trump couldn’t even read a prepared statement without stumbling over his words and having to constantly look at his paper.
Reports of Trump shutting himself in the White House residence and watching cable news after the first indictments and witness flip in the Russia scandal did not adequately prepare the nation for the scene at the cabinet meeting.

Trump sounds unwell. The Russia investigation is visibly taking a toll on him.

The President is about to embark on a trip to Asia, and he frankly, looks and sounds unfit to travel.

As a candidate, Trump claimed that Hillary Clinton didn’t have the stamina to be president, but as president, Trump has shown that he is the individual who lacks the necessary energy to do the job. Donald Trump looks to be in a state of deterioration, and it is not unreasonable to wonder how much longer he can last in the presidency.

1. Same way he botched reading the name La David Johnson

[gratuitous]

2. ". . . diversary . . . diversity . . . diversi-TEE"

E-I-E-I-O.

Damn, every word he read sounded like it came as a complete surprise to him.

[sandensea]

21. The thieving oaf must have been thinking 'diversion'

As in: "I wonder how I can use this attack to shamelessly divert attention from my scandals."

[maxsolomon]

3. Long term sleep deprivation,

Advancing age (oldest president ever), then taking on the hardest job in the world when you're used to your job being yelling "take care of it", not to mention an investigation into treason. Stressful for a bully.

I hope he loses it in Asia - full babbling meltdown. 100x the embarrassment of Bush the Greater vomiting on the Japanese Prime Minister.

Take your Ambien now, Dotard.

[forgotmylogin]

10. I still say tranq darts.

They installed emergency non lethal tranquilizer guns with the fire extinguishers in the last WH remodel.

[HAB911]

4. He is terribly sick

[Orrex]

5. I'm so looking forward to watching him stroke out on live TV

[FSogol]

11. C'mon, Orrex, don't mince words, tell us how you really feel.

Wonder if Melania will start grinning at that exact moment?

[SoCalNative]

14. It's likely

she'll do the casket dance

[erronis]

23. But if the trump-thing is worth no-thing - no $s for the missus

Why would she be glad to see him go?

Lots of reasons to have that ponderous weight off her chest. Pardon the image.

I would hazard a guess that all of the emperors family and slavish lackeys will find themselves without an enforceable contract to collect moneys due once the beast is put away. As has been stated before, the thing's wealth is all a mirage made from very thin cloth - IOUs, unfulfilled contracts, unpaid invoices.

How the hell did this wretch get elected? Can is all be blamed on the stoopids and the russkis? Or is a larger cabal trying to rig society. Cabal -> Kochball.

[Kirk Lover]

24. Oh my goodness that is my fantasy as well -- and I use the exact same phrasing.

[mountain grammy]

31. Boy, me too.

heart attack would be fine too.. lot's of pain and grimacing.

[Hekate]

35. The only way anyone is going to get him to Walter Reed is if he does that on live TV...

I've been saying that for ages, but what I've been hoping for is something, anything however minor, that would cause him to fall down unconscious so that NO ONE could deny what was seen. He needs a complete and objective medical workup to prove what we already know: he is mentally unfit for office.

[unblock]

6. my right-win brother-in-law chokes on that word too.

it's one of quite a number of words that are banned from his household.

for instance, we have to refer to men who love men as "happy".

[delisen]

7. He seems in control and does not seem unwell-

I don't see any significant change from many earlier presentations.

He does appear to not have read the statements before getting to the podium

[HipChick]

8. Even Stevie Wonder can see there is something wrong with him..

[maxsolomon]

9. Because he's a lazy fuck

who doesn't want to do the job he won. He just wants the adulation, the place in history.

He is the worst person in the world, and I'm including Putin. Putin does the work. It's evil work, but he puts in the effort.

[RedSpartan]

20. LOL

[CatMor]

12. The least he could do is read the statement beforehand..

also, you would like to think he helped write the statement but obviously he didn't. He certainly looks unfit to me both mentally and physically. He is rather stupid and not qualified for the job.

[delisen]

17. Incompetency makes a great defense

I think he has known exactly what he is doing from the beginning of his campaign up to the present day.

He may be scared, angry, unprepared, tired, mercurial, vicious, abusive, cunning in how he decides to present himself in public. He may have some typical conditions any otherwise competent person his age may have.

There are many Republicans who will be happy to sweep crimes of Trump under the rug by agreeing with any claim put forth by his legal team that he has advanced dementia.

The damage he is doing is not being done by someone with dementia.

[CatMor]

18. I didn't say he had dementia....

I think you are giving him too much credit for being cunning. He is simply a con man in way over his head in this role. Unlike his business he has a whole lot of people to answer to, many much smarter than him.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

32. Yeah, his legal team is going to plead "ADVANCED DEMENTIA!"

i never LOL but LOL

Anyway, Trump can't have dementia because he's President.

[LanternWaste]

25. He seems 30 pounds heavier than he did a year ago, and seems quite unwell.

He seems 30 pounds heavier than he did a year ago, and seems quite unwell.

I see significant changes from past presentations.

He does appear to have a small reading problem.


Chances are, we both of us see what better validates our opinions and biases.

[gibraltar72]

13. It's pronounced

staaammmminnnna!

[Achilleaze]

15. America's enemies watch hungrily as...

...the republican Draft-Dodger-in-Chief visibly deteriorates, and his republican-russian comrades continue to weaken the USA.

[matt819]

16. Given this obvious example of his unwellness

I really hope that the DUer who speculated on more indictments being unsealed once the buffoon-in-chief is on his way to Asia is right. I mean, that really would be priceless.

I think good timing would be when he's almost halfway to the first leg of the trip.

He could still turn around without much trouble, but then he would be dissing everyone he's planning to visit. And if he doesn't turn around, he gets to fume for hours and hours. Sure, he can tweet from AF1, but just picturing the situation would be, well, priceless.

And it doesn't matter who the indictments are targetting. Flynn, Kushner, Ross, Page, Gorka. Maybe a guilty plea from another covfefe boy.

Schadenfreude on high alert.

[onethatcares]

19. is this the old organized crime defense?

he shows up in a bathrobe, mumbling idiocies and falling over his feet. "your Honor, my client is not able to fend for himself in prison please release him to his family".......blah, blah, blah.

I thought he was in the best shape of any president ever, everest, everester, everestest, and we see "acting" like this. Wheres that doctor that signed off on this shit?

[highplainsdem]

22. He looks exhausted and stressed. Much more so than even a week ago.

[jberryhill]

26. "Sounds nice, but it's not good"

I'm beginning to understand that his supporters are unable to recognize that his speech patterns proceed from a defective thought process.

[Doodley]

27. Of course he can't say diversity. He doesn't even have any idea what it means.

Disunity, bigotry, racism, nastiness, and callousness are words that he understands bigly, but diversity? He hasn't got a clue.

[thegoose]

28. Good!

I'm gleeful as hell at every indication of suffering this immoral piece of garbage displays.

[C_U_L8R]

29. Donnie didn't get much sleep last night.

[mythology]

30. How does that differ from before?

He's always been a blithering idiot.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

33. There are varying degrees of blithering idiot.

[SeattleVet]

34. Is he intentionally doing this to force invocation of the 25th Amendment?

All of those around him should be able to clearly see the marked deterioration in (what was left of) his faculties.

[oasis]

36. The heat is on. He won't last past the holidays.
