First, I gotta' ask: who's doing Dementia Don's make-up these days because he's a shade away from blackface. If he gets any darker, Stephen Miller is gonna' demand he be deported. And has no one told him his ears are five shades lighter than his face? Or that he has a make-up line running all around the edges of his face?
Second, did anyone watch the town hall? I mean, as former president Bush said walking off the dais after Trump's inaugural speech: that was some weird shit.
Almost immediately, back-to-back rallygoers had medical emergencies, passing out. The Trump staff played music -- "Ave Maria," WTAF? -- while they were attended to, probably realizing there was no way Trump would not make the situation worse by talking. Yet he managed to anyway, joking after the second medical emergency: "Anyone else want to pass out?"
Trump took four questions. Four. That was it. He rambled and weaved his way through those four questions and then asked the rallygoers if they wanted to ask more questions? They applauded and yelled 'yes'. Dementia Don then rambled some more, talking about democrats being evil, before telling the audience he was going to play them some music and then send them home. He urged people to vote -- at least this time he left off the month and date and he didn't tell them January 5 as he did earlier -- and then played YMCA.
Other songs (yes, with videos) included Sinead O’Connor’s “Nothing Compares to You,” despite the O'Connor estate asking him not to use her music at his rallies (Sinead O'Connor accurately described Trump as a "biblical devil"), Elvis performing "An American Trilogy," “Rich Men North of Richmond” by Oliver Anthony, Barbara Streisand’s "Memory" (need I point out that Streisand, too, despises Trump?), and "November Rain" by Gun N’ Roses (who have also repeatedly told Trump not to use their music at his rallies).
Half the crowd was stunned and confused, the other half cultishly joyful.
I shit you not, Trump stood on stage as back-to-back-to-back music videos played, looking stunned and confused himself. Lost. Mentally checked out.
If this had been Joe Biden, every newspaper in America would feature headlines this morning demanding Trump drop out of the race, saying he did not have the mental acuity and fitness for office.
Eventually, Trump kissed his host, governor Kristi Noem, stood around a while longer and then halfway through "November Rain" wandered off stage.
Four questions in a nearly hour-long music video extravaganza.
There were no encores. Dementia Don had left the building.
No wonder his campaign doesn't want him doing "60 Minutes".
His brain is mush.

Don't worry. After Harris wins, MAGA is totally over in the Western and Eastern World.
(Certainly she won't add to their ranks)

The asymmetry of the way the media treats Trump vs all others is astonishing.
On the one hand the right wing media will praise him and cover for his idiocy at every turn. OTOH, the mainstream media feels they must bend over backwards to be 'fair' to Trump, when they should be screaming bloody murder about the lunacy of this moment in American history and politics.
As so many who worked for him in his first administration have said, there has never been a less qualified, a worse, POTUS in our history.
IT IS INSANE.
