So…is someone gonna ask them about this? It’s been obvious since the summer that he’s wearing some sort of mechanical braces on his legs that seem anchored to something not insubstantial around his waist & ass. Other presidents would absolutely be asked about this! Do we have a bionic POTUS? Fair Q!

Again, you (& I) live in a country where there are concentration camps & people are being disappeared. We can argue about what exactly to call this particular form of partially autocratic political regime, but it’s not a full democracy.

I recommend people read this to get a sense of the president's grave cognitive impairment. Trump is either unwilling or unable (or maybe both) to answer the questions he's actually asked, so he just rants and raves while the interviewers do their best to provide structure to his random brain firings

Trump is every reactionary psychopathology laid bare. I once thought, back in the mists of 2015, that people would see this--see the reactionary psyche for what it is--& be repulsed. But lots of people see it & experience it as validation, as authenticity or honesty. "I share that psychopathology!"
