Friends, get your deerskin hat and magnifying glass, particularly the magnifying glass, or expand this image on your screen to the max. Because this you’ve got to see, in detail. When Trump turns and dips his head at the :31 mark, take special note. Watch him go into a Mitch McConnell freeze between :31 and :37. He snaps out of it around :41.

Take your time. Watch it a few times. Yes, the music plays and he juts out his chin for dramatic effect. I get that. He’s playing the Marmalade Messiah now, the flock is gathered, they hang on his every word. They thrill to the fact that they’re breathing the same air.

And then he purses his lips. I don’t know if that’s the MAGA version of being witty and urbane, I’m just writing down what’s there. Now right after that “the problem” happens. I put it in quotes because I don’t know what the problem is. It may be as simple as he forgot what he was going to say next — he just “went up” as actors say, the term of art for forgetting your lines. Or, maybe he’s just a gawd awful actor.

Now his handlers may have sensed something and they flashed whatever signs they flash to get the crowd to its feet. All of this may have a very prosaic explanation. But it’s that vacant stare at :33 to :39, that’s what I find unsettling.

And it may just be that he pissed himself. There’s yet another prosaic explanation. And believe me, I’m surprised Trump hasn’t done so. He actually did that at Mar-a-Lago. There was himself and a group of golfers and the photographer was hiding in the bushes, I guess. In any event, Trump just took it out and whizzed, and somebody commented, “Did he just take a piss?” This was on Twitter. I can’t find it right now, but I did post it here. And truth be known, MAGA would probably love it if he relieved himself on stage. The stage would probably become a holy place, the actual floorboards would become holy relics and go for big bucks at auction. You think I jest?

Everybody agrees he’s not looking his best tonight. So was it merely theatrics?

All of these ideas and observations are completely valid. I still maintain that the strange look in his eyes for those six seconds is something beyond theatrics. I don’t know what went on. But everything else in this tape is consistent with these ideas, except for those few seconds. He does look frozen, alarmed, not there.

That is a theory which fits the facts. I’m going with that one.

  1. Pathetic. He’s lost his train of thought and can’t pick up the thread. I’ve seen this in Alzheimer patients. They can carry on a conversation normally for a while and then suddenly they’re lost in space. They can get quite animated as they struggle to find a landmark, which is what I’m seeing with P01135809. What’s particularly interesting is the rally staff know what has happened and try to fill in the dead space with background music.

  2. Everyone seems to think this is some sort of kodak moment mentally but I’m considerably younger than former guy and Mitch and I have these moments too. As we age, this happens and if my physician is correct, it is a normal part of the aging process. Is former guy in the stages of Alzheimer/Dementia? Don’t know. I do know however I have these times when I am speaking and completely lose my train of thought, forget words, etc. and so far it is nothing more sinister than getting older.

    A physician who has examined, personally examined or at least been in close quarters with, former guy would be able to state with a bit more confidence on the matter.

      • Tramp did the same thing when he was in Walter Reed when he got Covid. There was a camera behind him he didn’t know about and it showed a stack of blank pieces of white paper.
        He made it look like he was working in his private suite at the hospital as he furiously signed blank pieces of 4×6 paper with his signature sharpie.

  3. I still say Traitor Tot should be sitting in a cell waiting for his trials. While I would not normally wish misfortune on anyone, I have to make an exception for Traitor Tot and his cult!

  4. Well it probably dawned on orangie that if he doesn’t make this work he’s going to jail. And even if he does he may still end up in jail. My best friends brother had the same qualities. He never got into politics thank god or we could have had another idiot up there. The way Trumps mind works is he’s always thinking. The problem is its about the self preservation of Donnie Trump. And the bad news is Trump isn’t a experienced politician. Lord help us if he was. They had a poll where Trump and Biden are neck and neck. And of course the news guys jumped in saying that people are all worried about it. Pleeease save me from these idijits. The election is over a year away and the economy is smoking. We have the top economy in the world. You won’t hear those clowns say one word about that. Oh but we have fair and unbiased news. My white, hairy ass we do!

  5. You posted it but now you can’t find it ? C’mon,don’t leave us hanging. Maybe this would prove once and for all if he really is the Mushroom Man
