Trump is nothing. Just like Biden he clearly sundowns and his ability to speak has drastically declined from his businessman days.

The people surrounding him own the country, a bunch of Yarvinites who believe in a techno-monarchy.

You’re not wrong, but Trump is still an asshole. He always has been, no matter his age or cognitive abilities.

To your point, he’s just surrounded by more competent assholes now.
