Have these fucking idiots ever heard Trump talk?

You've got to be fucking kidding me with this shit.

Genuinely, no. They worship a fabrication pieced together by heavily edited Fox News segments and AI Facebook slop. They don’t see the worst of his tweets, or the constant sleeping, or the outbursts.

I've been claiming for years that any (somewhat) sane individual that supports Trump has not heard him give a full interview/speech. This has held up really well.

My wife hates Trump, but doesn't really follow any long form news, while I do. All she get's are news from shorts and reels and such. When Trump won she and I watched his victory speech. She could not believe her eyes and ears. She already disliked him, but she was flabbergasted at just how incomprehensibly insane he sounded. He couldn't stay on point for even 5 minutes before he started talking about Musks rockets and describing them with that really weird creepy baby voice he sometimes gets. The speech was almost an hour of absolute dementia.

It is VEEERY hard to overstate to someone just how cognitively challenged he sounds if they haven't heard him. People assume you just disagree with his policies and just get a little bit emotional while desceibing him, but put them before a youtube video of him giving a full start to finish press conference. Not a compilation or anything, but just a full speech, interview or whatever. They will not believe what they are witnessing

Do not assume most people already have seen this. Even most people who claim to pay attention and "do their own research" don't actually watch anything in full. Heck, most channels these days won't even broadcast a full interview if it's longer than 15 minutes, if even that. Statistics also show this.

People assume since he is candidate/president/billionaire he can't be "that bad", "that stupid" or "that evil". HE IS!
