Trump is degenerating rapidly before our eyes — why MAGA voters don't notice

This is why it's essential for those debates to happen. Yes, both men are declining mentally, but Biden can at least make a coherent argument, even if he mixes up names sometimes.

There is no excuse for either candidate to avoid debates anymore. we need to hear them talk, without prepared speeches. I will take Biden's odds on that over Trump's any day.

If Biden wins this thing, I think history will find that the reason he beat Trump twice was that he was not at all intimidated by him. He takes Trump seriously, but also has the courage to call him out for the liar he is, convincingly, without dismissing his supporters as a bunch of losers. That takes a bit of confidence that only age can bring. Maybe Bernie could have done it, but I don't think any other candidate could. Clinton absolutely failed at that.

Republican voters: "Does he still piss off the many, many, many groups of people we openly hate and wish harm upon more than any other candidate could?"

Well yes, but what does that have to do with effective governance?

Republican voters: "what the fuck is governance?"

It's not a question of whether or not they notice, it's a question of whether or not they care. They don't vote for him because of his policies, they vote for him because he wants to hurt the people they don't like. They vote for him because "The Left" doesn't want him. He literally says his first day in office would be his Dictator Day and they ate it up.

Trump speeches may sound like listening to a four-year-old explain "The Lord of the Rings,"

LMAO

they know that he'll let them hurt who they want to hurt and they don't care about anything else. I think to a lot of them a mentally incompetent trump is a bonus because he'll be easier to steer.

They are fine with a Weekend at Bernie's presidency so long as it brings them closer to the theocratic hellscape they want us to live in.

Is the question "why" really still a source of puzzlement to people? It's a cult. Jesus is long dead, or probably never existed, so he's even more "degenerated" than Trump, but that doesn't seem to be a problem for his followers.

Even Jimmy Fallon, who tends to be cautious about mocking Trump, joked on Monday night, "It sounds like his brain got a flat," and suggested Trump's new campaign slogan should be "Trump 2024 WI-RI-BI-GYU ... AHHH."

Trump 2024

Because they have already degenerated?

They might notice, but they certainly don't care.

An average middle aged American would make both candidates look too old and not suited for the presidency....

But when it's Biden and trump, criticizing ones mental ability just makes people claim it's not a big deal because the other is bad too.

Neoliberals claim Biden is better, republicans claim trump is better.

Everyone else says both aren't good enough and why the fuck are these the only two options...

This is going to be a low turnout election, and those are the ones Republicans tend to win.

Ignoring it while there's still time to fix it only helps trump. Because Republicans are better at ignoring reality than anyone else.

I had time to think for a bit. Please be advised that I'm not an American citizen and the following is purely conjecture.
Basically, I believe the US is FUBAR. There are 4 possible scenarios for the 5th of November:

• Trump gets so demented it's getting impossible to get him propped up, he has to concede somewhere around that time
• Trump finally gets thrown in jail, before election day
• Biden wins - right now it looks like it would be a close call
• Trump wins

The article mentions, as many have before, that the "conservative" way of "thinking" has become purely emotional. So what do you think will happen if either of the three first will come true? Someone will seize the day and shout some bullshit conspiracy or another and now 20-30% of your emotionally driven population will get set to "angry" and "revenge".
If he simply wins: Mission accomplished!

Now that I've thought a bit more, even (maybe especially?) if Biden wins in a landslide, the conspiracy spin could even be made stronger. Yikes. It might be the time of troubles on a very large scale and I reaaaaaaaaaly hope I'm totally wrong with all this!

Wish he'd degenerate quickly into a 6' hole.

Because I'm not paying attention and don't really give a fuck? MAGA! WOOOO!

How can someone degenerate when they've always been a degenerate?

I think most Maga voters might prefer an ineffective president.

To his supporters this is a feature, not a bug.

Trump supporters are like modern day graea, but sharing only one brain cell between each other.

Here's hoping he degenerates decomposes completely before the election.

MAGA voters don't notice Trump's decline and BlueMAGA don't notice Biden's. That failure to acknowledge the elephant in the room is gonna fuck us all, again.

"i don't like him but i have to vote for him" is what i get from the republican voters that i know. many democrats have a position regarding biden that is the same.

Same reason diehard Biden voters don't want to admit Israel is conducting a genocide. The cult of personality.

Is it because they are also degenerating as well?
