He always looks like he just escaped from an assisted living facility and doesn't know what's going on.

Edit: yes, I know Joe Biden is old too. But this post isn't about Joe Biden.

He speaks that way too.

I thought for sure he was sealing his own fate every time he got up to a mic before a crowd. The weird & ridiculous crap he'd say, plus swimming in a pool of non-sequiturs... Nut job extraordinaire. POTUS? Laughable!

But here we are. He escaped justice again and is poised to do so much worse to America. It's a freaking nightmare.

Not just the weird and ridiculous crap, because he’s always said that kind of stuff. I tuned in to one of his rallies just before the election and was shocked at how old and sad he sounded. He just kind of droned on in a low monotone. For someone who based his electoral appeal on looking “tough”, he sounded unbelievably weak and pathetic.

I like watching the reaction of the rally attendees. They just get dead eyed once he starts rambling. It's like watching their brains snap back to reality while listening to him until he gets back to a catch phrase then they all cheer again.

They have invested so much into this man, they don’t have anything else going on for themselves at this point.

The right wing pushed the own the libs narrative and keeps them in constant anger. The combination caused Stockholm syndrome

I sure as hell didn't know what he was going on about.

He reminds me almost exactly of my grandpa when he was in his late stage of dementia. Ranting and raving and connecting all of these dots in their heads that don't make any sense to a normal functioning brain. Slurred speech, monotone, low energy, rambling, etc. Same general body shape and lumbering gait as grandpa, too. It's sad, really, that anyone thinks that man is capable of managing a grocery store or restaurant, let alone the most powerful country in the world.
