GOP slowly beginning to sense an incoherent somnambulistic decaying rambling Grampy on the campaign trail has its risks

'Talking like a crazy person': GOP hesitant to put 'declining' Trump on campaign trail

https://www.rawstory.com/alternet-posts/donald-trump-decline-2674396453/

“We need to talk about Trump’s age … and what it means for the next three years,” said Last, pointing out that the president’s hair is “really thinning” and nobody’s yet figured out how to get bronzer on his “albino white scalp.”

*****

“As he goes into these states, he starts talking like a crazy person … about the affordability scam and pencils. … He doesn’t even sound that good,” said (former Republican and Bulwark publisher Sarah Longwell). “The idea of putting him on the trail — the reason they’re doing it now is because he’s declining. They’re trying to get him out there early … and voters are so done with these old candidates.”

“The only way Trump got away with his age was because he was not as old as Biden,” Longwell continued. “You could tell they were roughly the same age … but Trump had big lunatic energy still. That is falling. That is going away. Now he’s doing this thing where he’s waking up in the middle of the night and ripping off 150 [Truth Social] posts at 3 am and falling asleep while Marco Rubio is talking. And it’s happening a lot where he’s napping in the day.”

(Bulwark editor Jonathan Last) said what will be obvious to voters over the next three years is that the U.S. “won’t really have a president, just a ceremonial head of state with “Stephen Miller trying to get what he can, Marco Rubio trying to get what he can and JD Vance trying to put himself in a position to hold everything together while also trying to figure out if there’ s a way to knife the old man.”

If there's one thing America needs right now, especially in the Christmas season, is Trump yelling at "rally" crowds about how they'd be feeling his Golden Era much better if they only bought fewer Christmas presents for their kids (as he throws more gala "Gatsby" parties at Mar-a-Lago and continues festooning the Oval Office with more and more gaudy gold baubles).

One would think that the GOP would worry more about an “incoherent, somnambulistic decaying, rambling” fool who is running the country.

He's napping through most of it, but that's not stopping them. They're all part of Trump's human centipede.

Nobody will be around to reign in their perversions.

They don't care if Shit Soul is popping screws and springs. They are getting off on it. They love the slow motion snuff film that is the trump presidency.

Raise some chickens and grow some beans. It's gonna get shittier.
