NEVER FORGET all the Republican members of Congress who sat idly by and let ALL of this happen. They are WORSE than Trump. We can at least say Trump is experiencing mental instability or something, but the GOP has NO EXCUSE!
I couldn’t care less about legislative plans. I want to see arrests. Now.
I bet a lot of the conversation will revolve around how to continue protecting pedophilesÂ
So they just had 3 weeks off, and go right to a retreat ?
The slurring
Does anyone have any idea what he’s talking about
WaPo announces the GOP lose another seat to a death in their caucus. Brings their majority to **TWO**
“Stand up Speaker Johnson!”
Applause immediately stops.
Oh my God I’ve not actually watched this dipshit speak fully before like, what the actual fuck is this!? He’s just chatting utter bollocks in any direction the wind blows. Man! And the audience are clapping along!? What the fuck am I hearing?
da fuq is this
What am I watching? He seems confused and very unfocused. Is he medicated? Is this not very bizarre? He’s lost it. He is not fit. How will they report this?
I’ve listened to trump for a lot of years (unfortunately for my mental state) and this is some of the most confusing stuff I’ve ever heard him say. I can’t even follow this and I’m pretty good at decoding trump for the most part. He also sounds like he is slurring.
What the fuck is this man even saying
This speech is like the verbal equivalent of 52-card pickup. Just veering wildly from one bizarre topic to another without any logical sequence or flow.
You imagine the ASL interpreter that has to juggle the vernacular structure of his ramblings into a coherent sentence.
I know that everyone here knows this already and so do I, but holy shit, this man is not well.
Woman here. I’m demeaned by the gd monthly insurance bill I just opened, not trans sports.
What the fuck am I watching
What the fuck am i watching?
One of the top 2 most disturbing Jan. 6 speeches I’ve ever seen Trump give.
I’m only listening to this right now so I can truthfully be educated on the United States of America’s greatest president of all time. The greatest at cognitive tests, the bestest of the best.
And man, am I feeling dumber by the fucking second.
Is he slurring his words? He sounds dunk AF.
“I’m the only President that has to keep doing cognitive tests.”
Is he genuinely on uppers or something? Because he is moving around way more than he has in like months and it’s really jarring after the way hes looked for the last few days.
I miss Obama, a President that was articulate, this guy is sundowning in real time.
you gotta weave to get back to the point lmao what did he take today
I wonder if he has a script that he just doesn’t read or if he’s truly just making it up as he goes. Constant rambling, doing weird voices, and talking about how the election was rigged on January 6th of all days. 2026 is just dandy so far
This shit is being broadcast live on UK channels for some reason. I can’t escape Trump and he’s not even my head of state. I miss Biden because I didn’t have to hear from him every 5 minutes wanting to make the news
“I’ve found health care not of tremendous interest”. If the Dems were smart they would be spinning up the ads with that line right now.
His rally schtick of lies and grievances is really really tired at this point. How can anyone keep supporting this mess.
What legislative plans? What is even the point of Congress anymore if Trump just does whatever he wants?
They aren’t going to be able to have him speak live much longer. This is so bad.
He seems to have forgotten the 34 felonies.
How fucking embarrassing.
This man is sick.
He’s literally just referring to IVF as fertilization.
Fucking dumbass.
He’s never going to shut the fuck up.
Donald pretends he has a healthcare plan.Â
This was on in my lunchroom, with subtitles only and I’m reading along and it just doesn’t make any sense. The repeated words, the repeated sentences, the messy, wandering structure of the speech – it made no sense. I had to walk away.
Its literally unbelievable. But yes, 5 democratic states are kidnapping your kids and changing their gender. Its so true, its unbelievable.
I just clicked on again to see if he was still going. Seems it’s over and he was dancing, clapping, saying “thank you” to randoms off stage while YMCA was playing. Like it’s a campaign rally…. we’re so fucked.
Diaper change time
This is one of the most fucked things I’ve ever watched besides human centipedeÂ
Remember how people in history class were asking themself how the Germans could have allowed Hitler to take power, start WW2, kill millions and ultimately lead Germany to it’s downfall?
You are living the 1938 timeline right now.
