      What gave it away? The slumped shoulders? The slurry speech impediment? The stalling for time each time he is asked a question or any time he is expected to say something intelligent? The flabby gut? The vaginal crease he calls a neck? The fake tan? The combover?

    Multiple events canceled. Harris campaign must seize on this.

      Her campaign has been harping on it before, so they’ll probably ramp that up. For instance, they just posted this with the caption “is he ok”

        Can we at least have someone pass a hoop around him to demonstrate that he isn’t being held up by strings?

          Hey now don’t tell me your suggesting the heritage foundation, who published a 900 page document of everything the Trump should do, could be trying to pull strings? I’m sure they’re also just keeping lists of people trump should remove for fun, you know, and that their not publicly released part of Project 2025 with fleshed out executive orders was for the bit

            Oh, we all know the heritage foundation is pulling his strings metaphorically, the question now is whether old Diaper Donny still has the strength to stand up on his own or if they’re literally running a complex Weekend at Bernie’s marionette scheme…

    A Trump campaign official said the event was canceled due to a scheduling conflict.

    Someone must have given his pills at the wrong time, so he was lucid too early and now he needs his nap.

      Him actually being lucid would be newsworthy.

    Canceling the CNBC interview I could see after getting thumped in Chicago, but canceling a softball rally where he would certainly be lavished with obsequious adulation suggests a health issue. Undoubtedly the grueling campaign trail is taking its toll on him.

      Or a security issue. Very possible that someone called in a threat and Trump pulled out rather than risk a giant crowd full of gun-enthusiasts hiding someone with less enthusiastic views.

        They’d have immediately trotted that excuse out if it was the case.

        This is severe cognitive decline in a geriatric individual.

          The threat doesn’t need to be specific.

          He might just have realized that surrounding himself with gun nuts when not every one of them buys his bullshit was not a smart idea.

        The funny thing about NRA types is that they’re also “libertarian” types and at least some of them are literate.

      They just revealed that the head of the NRA very sadistically tortured and murdered a cat. No one will be near that guy anytime soon.

    “The NRA is committed to ensuring Donald Trump wins in November and returns to the White House,”

    That in itself is a really good explanation of why so many people in my area support Trump.
