22. I think the strongest evidence to suggest the dementia taboo is fading came from the Times' Katie Rogers. She has covered Trump rallies for a decade. Last week, she said they "feel like the first stops of a farewell tour." www.nytimes.com/2026/10/04/u...

At Trump’s Rallies, a Familiar Mix of Rituals and a Plea to ‘Please Pretend’
President Trump is doggedly lending his support to Republican candidates facing a rough midterm season. He is the same campaigner he has always been, but his crowds have changed.

We are sanctioning the ICC because we are a country that commits war crimes. We are buying diesel from Russia to fund Putin’s war machine because we are a country that likes *other* countries that commit war crimes.

This is completely outrageous and disgusting. This must immediately be blocked by Congress and Trump should be impeached for this. The US is now funding Putin’s war machine as he murders civilians including children. We are lost as a country.

The reliance on Greek and Roman texts had less to do with their "greatness" and more to do with what was available (and translated) in the 18th century. Besides, we know that Jefferson and Adams owned and read the Qu'ran. So maybe calm down that hard-on for antiquity, Marco.

That Trump can’t be satisfied with his corrupt crypto (corrupto?) windfall but has to do old school insider trading too tells you how serious he is about, “I can do anything I want.”

So Donald is making it clear: his pointless war with Iran is tied *solely* to domestic politics—and has nothing to do with Iran having a nuclear weapon. I thought he wasn’t supposed to say that part out loud.

Trump: "We will not be attacking Iran at any time prior to the Midterm Elections"
We are having productive discussions with the Islamic Republic of Iran. I want to make it clear to everybody that, while Iran is in very bad condition, both Economically and Militarily, and while the Blockade will remain in full force and effect, with Oil flowing in Record Numbers of Barrels through the Hormuz Strait (22 Million Barrels, last night alone, with not one barrel coming from, or going to, Iran!), we will not be attacking Iran at any time prior to the Midterm Elections to be held in the United States on November 3rd. IRAN WILL NOT HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON! President DONALD J. TRUMP
