"Donald Trump is not well. ...
A vote for Donald Trump is a vote for JD Vance."

A vote for a 'not well' Trump is a vote for the tyranny of JD Vance
Bill Barr is a cautionary tale for all of us. Possibly even JD Vance.

"Is Donald Trump well enough to serve as president? ...
To watch the event [i.e., as he swayed and bobbed to musice for 39 minutes on stage in Pennsylvania] is to see signs of someone having a breakdown."

Trump Breaks Down Onstage
At a campaign event last night, Trump got bored—and weirdness ensued.

"MAGA-friendly CNBC host Joe Kernen dropped an interesting nugget right as Squawk Box went to commercial break on Tuesday.
'Well, Trump canceled, and he was going to come on,' Kernen said.
Not only did Trump once love going on CNBC, but Kernen’s revelation comes on the heels of Trump declining or canceling a number of other high-profile opportunities to make a pitch to voters on mainstream TV."

Trump's campaign is trying to hide his sad state from voters
His decline is undeniable. They're hoping you don't notice in time.

"The explanation for all this is not that Trump has suddenly become camera shy. It’s that his campaign undoubtedly realizes his rapidly degrading condition doesn’t play well with audiences beyond the MAGA cult. ...
Following his Economic Club of Chicago event on Tuesday, Trump traveled down to Atlanta for a low energy rally where he seemed to have trouble stringing together cogent sentences when he wasn’t reading from the teleprompter."

"At other points, Trump barely seemed able to get words out. ...
Trump, however, reliably gets help from a mainstream press that too often sanewashes his speeches for readers and viewers who aren’t watching them live and may not spend a lot of time on social media.
The New York Times, for instance, described Trump as 'swaying soberly' during his musical 'detour' in Pennsylvania, adding that he’s known 'for improvisational departures.'”

"After Trump’s bizarre performance last night in Oaks, Pennsylvania, when he stopped taking questions and just swayed to his self-curated playlist for 39 minutes, his campaign this morning canceled a scheduled interview with CNBC’s Squawk Box, according to co-host of the show Joe Kernen."

"The campaign did not, though, cancel a scheduled live interview today with Bloomberg News and the Economic Club of Chicago. That interview echoed last night’s train wreck. ...
Trump has multiple meltdowns each day and major media looks on with mild bemusement. The NYTimes dismissed Trump's 39-minute interlude of listening to music at a rally on Monday as an 'improvisational detour.'”

"Really?! If Harris had done the same thing, the Times would have described the event as 'disqualifying.' Perhaps that explains why Kamala Harris would rather be interviewed by Fox News than the NYTimes."

Noting the media's deep concern -- "almost an obsession" -- with Biden's age and mental stability, Donald Trump's niece Mary Trump asks,
"How bad does it need to be before they sit up and take notice [that Trump is decompensating before our eyes]?"
~ Mary L. Trump

"This should be a five-alarm fire across all media organizations, and yet the AP headline [about Trump's onstage breakdown in Pennsylvania] read, 'Trump turned his town hall into an impromptu concert.' The write-up in The New York Times was, if possible, worse."

"If nothing else matters—the criminality, the cruelty, the misogyny, the racism, the viciousness, the freaking fascism—than surely the steep cognitive decline of a man who is running to be the leader of the free world should matter."

"Donald Trump continued his pre-election economic event tour on Tuesday with a lengthy interview with Bloomberg at the Economic Club of Chicago. It was a total mess."

"Micklethwait spent most of the interview attempting to break Trump out of what the former president repeatedly referred to as 'the weave,' his term for his rambling digressions — with ever-decreasing intelligibility — and general inability to focus on a given topic for more than a few seconds during his rallies and interviews."

@wdlindsy I'm not sure what "decompensating" means, but it's near enough to "decomposing" so I'll go with that.

@wdlindsy Town hall events where no questions are asked, just music played, the perfect event for The Old Dementia Guy who does not have a discussable plan, nor could he discuss it without jeopardizing himself, the conversion of the United States from a democratic Republic into a Russian style dictatorship with show elections, and show trials to lock up his political adversaries. 🧟

"His aversion to questions, especially tough or unexpected ones, has become alarmingly evident. Just consider:
His refusal to debate Kamala Harris a second time for a variety of garbage excuses;
Canceling his 60 Minutes interview, shattering over half a century of tradition;"

MVP Harris dominates the final stretch while the former President cowers from questions by making rally-goers listen to his workout playlist

"His ludicrous proposal that his rambling responses are in fact an intentional 'bob and weave' narrative device he uses to stitch together his gurgling thoughts;
And, most recently, shutting down last night’s Q&A portion of his rally in favor of spending 39 MINUTES on stage, doing this
While this 78 year old man sways, bobs, weaves, and makes a muddled mockery of engaging with other humans, his opponent is in 'excellent health.'”

@wdlindsy Vintage Trump. Putting a positive spin even on his mental-collapse, incapable is he of admitting to suffering human-frailty. Experience shall teach him, and the final lesson will be his death.

As Heather Cox Richardson reports, Trump showed up nearly an hour late for his interview tin John Micklethwait, and "things went downill fast." Micklethwait asked "real questions," and Trump responded with "aimless rants and campaign slogans," with Micklethwait correcting his disinformation. Trump then became "angry and combative."
