Dementia Ward Nurse: Trump's Decaying Brain Was Only Joking To Reuters About Cancelling Elections [View all]



Is REUTERS helping hide from the public that Trump's brain is oatmeal? A Wonkvestigation!

Karoline Leavitt, that is too much cheek filler.

On Wednesday, Reuters White House correspondent Steve Holland sat down in the Oval Office for a Dutch oven exclusive interview with President Donald J. Trump and Karoline Leavitt, the most enthusiastic candy striper in his dementia ward. But Reuters did not publish a full transcript of that interview, and no audio or video clips of it! Only still photos, a debriefing with Holland, and a series of articles on the most alarming of Trump’s babblings by subject, including key quotes, Iran, Minnesota, Jerome Powell, Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado pretending to re-gift Trump the Nobel Peace Prize, etc.


Surely not conditions that Reuters or any media outlet would prefer. But President Ballroom is in a position to set whatever conditions he wants for press access to his aura, and Reuters will take any clicks they can get. And surely it would hurt the public too much to see with their own eyes the extent to which Trump’s brain is melting like a Jack-o-Lantern in a compost pile in January. Many interview bits are wig-curling. Do not miss these.

Call off elections? Don’t mind if he does!

Someone has brought to Trump’s attention the matter of the midterms looking bleak as shit for Republicans, what with Trump’s own approval ratings underwater and sinking on literally everything, and congressional Republicans’ approval ratings even lower than that (29 percent, 70 percent disapproval, yowch!). So the rusty, dusty hamster wheel in Trump’s mind is waddling its thoughts from A to B, arriving at … anyone who doesn’t love Trump is crazy, ergo they should not be allowed to vote!



We know how holy and sacred Trump thinks elections are, 34 felonies and one attempted coup later. But what is he literally intending to do and how far along are any actual concepts of plans to meddle in midterms? If he can’t seize and purge enough states’ voter rolls of Democrats and loses, will he seize voting machines at state elections offices anywhere the GOP loses a red seat? Or was that “simply joking,” “facetiously,” stop being so sensitive, brosephs? Inquiring minds want to know, but Holland either did not ask, or did not tell. ¯_( ツ )_/¯ And Trump said that a poll showing only four percent of Americans want to take over Greenland was “fake.”
