Exhibit A: DJT can barely distinguish between Norway and Denmark; in his usual rambling incoherent way of combining Norway didn’t giving him a Noble Prize (fyi, Norway doesn’t award Nobles, the Noble Committee does. Two different entities.) and Denmark not giving him Greenland - all in the same run on mixed up paragraph.

Exhibit B: Stepping back and zooming out, but with attention to the second half of the Untruth post, DJT has blamed our European NATO allies for decades of U.S. spending on military operations and systems. I’ll give him 5% credit for indirectly acknowledging the huge spending on the military-industrial complex. Actually, I don’t want to give him any credit, because none is due, but I could see some dots connecting, even though he probably doesn’t. Anyway, 5% is still F-.

One disturbing thing about America is that I would guess that 75% of the nation now thinks Norway awards the various Nobel prizes.

I understand. I found out the hard way that they don't.

I sent a TL;DR message to Norwegian President Jonas Gahr Støre demanding he award me the Nobel Prize for Literature, else I'd send a hunting party to kill all the remaining Puffins in Greenland, and all I got was a knock on the door from a drunk Mi6 agent who looked EXACTLY like this: https://variety.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Slow_Horses_Photo_030107.jpg?crop=729px%2C0px%2C6659px%2C4618px&resize=1920%2C1280

And fyi Donald, it is in writing. The 1916 agreement and ratified treaty between the U.S. and Denmark for the purchase of what is now the USVI from the Kingdom of Denmark states Denmark is allowed to keep and control Greenland. PS: Thank you Denmark, I’ve been to the USVI - as the USVI advertises, it is truly America’s tropical paradise.

I'm restacking. On a matter related to all of this rather than to this specific insanity: Is somebody else writing these rants for Trump? So many of them have actual punctuation and use words that an adult would use. Trump's own rants often seem as though they're written by a middle grader.

You can pretty easily identify the ones he writes as opposed to staffers. His writing is nonsensical. His executive orders are probably written by a combination of staff and AI.

The man is mentally unwell. Remove him before it gets worse!

He is getting to the point in his dementia where he has no memory of things he said or did 10 minutes ago. Would the GOP Congress members please acknowledge that he is unfit to even make a sandwich, let alone govern. He is obsessed with both the Nobel Peace Prize and owning Greenland. It would be in the best interest of the entire world if he were to be arrested by the ICC. That’s exactly where he should be.

Thanks, Sharon. I agree. I’m not using hyperbole. Or exaggerating his mental state. It’s there for everyone to see. The situation is critical. Those who don’t recognize the insanity have become too numbed by their crazy uncles’ rants on Thanksgiving.

This is not normal behavior.

My dad died from Alzheimer’s, so I recognize the symptoms of dementia.

Charles Bastille's avatar

Yep, I’ve been around it plenty, too. The dementia is unmistakable. If you compare how he talks to several years ago, say, for example, the Howard Stern interviews, he was horrible then, too, but cogent.

I’m almost to the east coast and I’m so on edge right now. It’s hard to concentrate. Somebody’s GOT to do something. 😳

Charles Bastille's avatar

Safe travels, Susan.

Yes. We are out of time.

When you get angry,

Take a breath

And count to 10,

Throw a punch at 8.

Nobody expects that.

You’re welcome.

Except it's more of the same. Put any random tweets together. This just is in a bigger playing field. Makes us crazy to let it go on. I've been posting coup ideas.

How about a coup? I see a presidential team. Let's say Heather Cox Richardson, Joyce Vance, Anne Applebaum, and Marianne Williamson, my picks among other great women. And maybe more than four. Just picture intelligent, human-loving human beings leading the way. If they stated they are taking charge, I bet so many would be on the streets in support, all over the world that they couldn’t be thwarted.

LOL Now he stopped 8 wars. Hey, by Feb 1st he'll say he stopped 10 wars.

Charles Bastille's avatar

8 wars PLUS!!!

He should say 80. Just to see if the press quotes him without correction like they always do.
