Starting point is 00:00:00 There is only one president at a time. And so the current president's cognitive decline should be at the top above the fold of every newspaper. Do not take the bait and get wrapped up in what's going on with Joe Biden. He's not president. He did not seek a second term. But we have somebody who clearly has what appears to be dementia running the United States of America, who does not have the judgment to surround himself with experts. He surrounds himself with criminals and misfits. Put up this headline. Aging, slurring Trump lives in fear of dad's dementia. Fred Trump died in 1999, aged 93, with pneumonia and Alzheimer's. And here's an excerpt from this story. He lives in fear of going down the path his father went down, which was dementia followed
Starting point is 00:01:02 by Alzheimer's, into his 90s. I think he's carried that burden forever, The Daily Beast reports. That's no surprise at all. In my mind, he's halfway there. There is no question that he has a cognitive impairment. I'm no psychiatrist, psychologist, but it's as clear as the nose on my face. When groceries is a new word, this is a problem. The media has been sane washing Trump for 10 years now. It's really escalated the way that they sane wash him and the standard that Trump is held to, which is zero, and the standard that any Democrat is held to, which is you have to be damn near perfect at all times. Here's another excerpt from this article. Fred Trump, a real estate developer, died of both pneumonia and Alzheimer's disease at 93. This was eight years after his first formal diagnosis of dementia.
Starting point is 00:01:57 Eight years later, you guys. He retained his title of chairman of the board of Trump management even after the diagnosis. He also continued to come into work, according to the family, friend and business associate, Richard Levy. He came into the office every day until the day he went to the hospital, he said, after Fred Trump's passing. Trump Jr., which would be the current president, reportedly avoids talking about the touchy subject, partly because he bashed his predecessor, Joe Biden, for allegedly being cognitively impaired, but also because he fears this could be his fate too, O'Brien said. So remember, Trump is a complete nightcase, and all of the psychologists and psychiatrists
Starting point is 00:02:41 that watch him says that he uses projection all the time. So he's constantly projecting about sleepy Joe. psychologists and psychiatrists that watch him says that he uses projection all the time. So he's constantly projecting about sleepy Joe. Well, what have we seen lately? Trump's been in front of cameras a lot. We see him dozing off all of the time. We see him get confused about where he is. We see that his judgment is completely off, that he lets Pete Hegseth, an untreated alcoholic,
Starting point is 00:03:04 text war plans and there's zero consequences to it. Is it that he's diabolical? Is it that he has dementia? Is it both? All I know is this is not president of the United States material. It's disqualifying. All of this is. You would think the Democrats would come harder at it. You would think the mainstream media would cover it like a real story, but they don't because everybody's like, oh, Trump's just a nut. Trump just says stuff. Doesn't matter. It does matter, especially when he's embarrassing himself on a global stage, over and over and over. Well, the stuff that he says and where he gets confused is really quite dangerous. When he falsely claims whether he can't remember because
Starting point is 00:03:45 of his dementia slash Alzheimer's or whether he's beholden the blood of Putin or all of the above, but when he falsely claims that Ukraine started the war, this is not American leadership. This alienates us from our allies and you see him time and time again gravitate towards other crazy people. The self-described hot dictator of a cool dictator of El Salvador, you see him suck up to Victor Orban, you see his you know, mid-east tour bribery circle jerk, which was off the chain. He said and did a bunch of crazy shit over there as well. And then he cannot seem to stay on the American script that is very simple. Russia bad. Russia wants demise of the United States of America. And what
Starting point is 00:04:37 this is all doing is Donald Trump is draining the United States of all of our power everywhere. He's completely draining the economy, draining every pillar of democracy. He's selling us out to all of these dictator-slash-Sharia-law-style countries, and he doesn't even have the wherewithal. If we just listen to a recent Fox News report, Brett Baer, he calls himself a journalist, he's not, he's an entertainer. But he asked Trump about the assassination attempt on his life. And if you think about Trump, he is Mr. Grievance. Just this week, he's mad at Beyonce, he's mad at Taylor Swift, he's mad at Kamala Harris,
Starting point is 00:05:19 he's mad at Oprah, he's the president of the United States. And he just has all of these petty grievances. He's never been mad at this kid that tried to kill him. Let's hear how he answers this. You just tell me, Pumps, if you think this sounds like somebody who's cognitively there. You're the president. Can you find out? No, no.
Starting point is 00:05:38 I know. I know. I know. I'm relying on my people to tell me what it is. You know, we have deep-seated craziness in this country. I'm relying on my people to tell me what it is. You know, we have deep seated craziness in this country and I'm relying on my people and so far they, and they're good, but so far they, and in this case at Secret Service,
Starting point is 00:05:55 they tell me it's fine. But it's a little hard to believe, to be honest with you, okay, it's a little bit hard to believe as I get that throbbing feeling. Yeah, yeah. I get a little throbbing feeling. Well, if you find out, we'd love to know. We continue to ask.
Starting point is 00:06:07 A lot of people ask us. It's a little bit strange. We have incredible people in there now. So I can't blame them. OK. So this is what really pisses me off is he's clearly off the rails. He clearly cannot string together a coherent thought. And he is trying to reach for thoughts, and he can't piece anything together.
Starting point is 00:06:26 He's slunched over. We're like four months into his term, or three months, however long it's been. You have the alleged mainstream media, which is really corporate media, talking about Joe Biden all the time. We have to point out time and time again, Joe Biden is not in office. Joe Biden did not seek a second term. Did the people surrounding him cover something up? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:06:50 There were the same rumors that people around Ronald Reagan covered for him at the end of his second term. But what we have to do is focus on this president, this president who is taking away Medicare, taking away Medicaid, who he and his pro-life buddy, who's BFFs with Moses, Moses Mike Johnson, are wanting to go after Social Security. And they lie and lie and lie and say,
Starting point is 00:07:12 no, we're not going after that. It has been every Republican's wet dream to go after Social Security because they fucking lie. They say, oh no, we're pro-life. We care about our elders. We care about kids. We care about the healthcare. They don't. They care about money and money only. And they would rather take it from poor people than have the richest of the rich pay in more. And it's disgusting.
Starting point is 00:07:35 But to me, it seems like this man is spiraling down worse and worse and worse. This is totally different from Trump 1.0. I mean, he seems like he has totally lost his swagger. Absolutely. And I just find it hard to believe he doesn't know the ins and outs of this assassination attempt. I find that hard to believe. Somebody that we do know that he was a Trump supporter at one time, if this was a guy that was anti-Trump on the internet
Starting point is 00:08:02 all the time, he would be brow-beating the shit out of him. And I just, I don't believe as the president of the United States, you cannot get the information. Well, he says this all the time. People ask him, hey, do you know about this? And he says, well, this is the first I'm hearing of it. Did you know about this? No, I don't know anything about that. Can you, you're the president of the United States, can you get Abrego Garcia back here?
Starting point is 00:08:22 I don't think I can. And you've never seen an American president so consistently be so ignorant about the things that he should know about and so powerless. He's asking a question he should have every answer to. And every single time I see him in an interview, he reveals himself to be both ignorant, powerless, slumped over, and just breathtakingly dangerous. But let's remember what 77 million people voted for. This was on the campaign trail. And here he is with puppy killer, Christine Noem. And I just will never get over this.
Starting point is 00:08:56 Play your song and then greet a few people. Or do you wanna? Well, you had said you wanted to close with a specific song. ["Puppy Killer"] Well, you had said you wanted to close with a specific song. And she's talking to him like he's a toddler. Do you want me to go turn on your song? That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:09:15 I mean, that is crazy town. And that goes on for 45 minutes. And Jake Tapper and whoever the other guy is are concerned about Joe Biden. At least Joe Biden, I could tell he was old, but he was surrounded by experts that didn't have criminal histories. Joe Biden didn't pardon people that wanted to hang the vice president. It's just not even comparable. But it pisses me off that these corporate media people are trying to curry favor with right-wing media, people that are always going to fucking hate them. They're never going to want the First Amendment.
Starting point is 00:09:53 They're always going to want state-run TV and propaganda. But this desire to curry favor with them to say, oh, look, I'm Jake Tapper. I went after Joe Biden. They're still going to hate your guts, Jake Tapper, I went after Joe Biden. They're still going to hate your guts, Jake Tapper. And this is something that centrist Democrats do, corporatist Democrats do, and corporatists in the media do. Meanwhile, they same wash this diabolically dangerous person that's literally surrounded by Nazis. Right? Stephen Miller, Elon Musk, and they do all of this stuff with impunity. But the media now is losing their damn brain over Joe Biden, who is not president, who did not
Starting point is 00:10:29 seek a second term. It's gross. It's completely and absolutely ridiculous, the two standards. It is. All right. That's all we have for this episode.
