When dementia strikes a tiny mind.
I’m sure his people told him and he just didn’t listen, like how he didn’t even read his daily briefs when he was in office. Or maybe they’ve all realized he never listens anyway so no one bothers anymore.
Right, the headline should be “Trump forgot where he was and what he was doing during a Town Hall”
Oh man, that video was a painful watch. He then immediately switched to directly calling Kamala a communist and a Marxist. It is absolutely insane that there aren’t more people walking out on him when he insults his audience’s intelligence like that.
when he insults his audience’s intelligence like that.
Firstly, they must have some intelligence to insult.
You can’t insult something that doesn’t exist.
Is it really an insult when it’s an honest and accurate statement, though?
Harris is a Marxist?
If you find an actual Marxist that doesn’t despise Harris’ positions, let me know.
I assume that the people’s whose intelligence is being insulted is trump’s base- by telling those blatant and self evident lies.
We all know she’s not Marxist. But trump likes telling his base she is. (And they’re stupid enough to believe him.)
Whilst harris is closer to marx than trump, she is still in safe distance from communism.
Yes. We know that.
We’re not his audience, though. His base is his audience. And yes, they’re eating that shit up.
My mindset is that these people were tricked, and fell in far too deep. It’s like sunk cost fallacy: "I can’t say I’m wrong now, I’ve been the laughingstock of the family for 8 years! This time I’ll show 'em!
Eh I think it’s actually a little more sinister than that, I perceive a lot of these people as victims of a new type of cold war - cyber warfare including propaganda and election interference. Many of them have visible or otherwise obvious disabilities, genuinely. That they lack certain cognitive skills is exactly why they fell victim to this. And then once those people, the easy marks, started flocking there, all the other predators came after them too. It’s kinda sickening. Disabled people are one of the most abused groups of people along with children and the elderly.
Everyone deserves a vote and deserves to go to town halls and other campaign events. However there should really be something done about predatory practices done by campaigns and people who attend campaign events. They aren’t supposed to be there to sell books, they’re supposed to be earning votes and proposing policy. Anything aside from that should be scrutinized at minimum.
You just can’t find good help these days after surrounding yourself with yes-men, repeatedly firing your staff, implicating them in your crimes, insulting and harassing them, and spending all week golfing and eating cheeseburgers instead of preparing for campaign events.
And then not paying them
What do you want to bet he was told and ignored it?
My bet is he was told and forgot. Ol Dementia Don at it again.
You surrounded yourself with sycophants and imbeciles Donnie… what did you expect?
no he hires only the best people. who neglect to prepare him for events accordingly.
Not being from the USA, I can’t find what a “Town Hall” means in this context, does anyone care to explain?
Basically, it’s a smaller, informal rally. Usually there’s a stump speech followed by question and answer periods.
The tone and flavor tend to be wildly different depending on who’s running it.
I mean… clown hall anyone?
