Trump appears to forget where he is at North Carolina rally

Source: The Independent

33 minutes ago


Donald Trump appeared to forget where he was during a rally in North Carolina over the weekend. Trump was speaking to supporters in Kinston on Sunday when he started praising David McCormick as “one of the best [Republicans] of all right here.”

The only problem? McCormick is running for Senate — in Pennsylvania.

“We have great Republicans running and you have one of the best of all right here, David McCormick, you know that?” Trump said. “Where’s David, is he around some place? You know he just left, he’s a great guy.”

That gaffe wasn’t the only memorable moment from Trump’s campaign trail over the last few days.

And there won't be the necessary votes in Congress to make a 25th amendment notification stick.

So, not going to happen.

that has been the plan all along. Vance was hand-picked by Thiel to be there as the person competence enough, and ruthless enough to implement their agenda for a Dominionist Oligarchy.

It could be that he just doesn't care enough to remember people's names.

He even referred to Vance with the wrong name, if memory serves.

There's gotta be some state that would elect him. He's wasting his time in PA though.
Not that Chump cares one way or the other.

Of course he'd have to deal with Blumenthal and Murphy, but that is a whole other issue!

completely numb to it, helping to continue the sane-washing of the puppet they created. Meanwhile, they'll try to return to trashing Biden again, who is not running for anything, so they can manufacture "both sides".
