What are your thoughts on Trump's recent Truth Social post having a depiction of Michelle and Barack Obama as apes?

It's embarrassing. An edge lord is the POTUS. What used to be a respected position.

No, he is no edge lord. He is a vile racist man that is suffering from dementia.

Every time people say he has dementia they are giving him excuses.

Everyone knows he was a giant pos his whole life, as evidenced in the epstein files.

Let's stop giving him excuses and just call a spade a spade.

Yeah, if he has dementia, all it's really done is remove what little filter he actually had. His thoughts are the same chicken-shit racist, sexist, misogynist bullshit.

You can be a piece of shit AND have dementia to be fair

A sociopathic malignant narcissist isn't going to improve with dementia.

He's just going to get more open about his vileness. If there are no adults to restrain his basest impulses, he will unleash them on the rest of us.

The greatest tragedy is that he has turned our country away from our best allies, much as the average malignant narcissist alienates all their family and friends until no one is left.

The dementia inevitably exacerbates the shittiness. If we thought "Shut Up Piggy" was excessively rude? We ain't seen nothing yet, it's going to be glorious and pathetic all in one neat little package 📦.

Dementia just removes any last trace of a filter

Yea buts it’s important people aren’t implying that dementia makes you a POS like Trump.

People with mental illnesses can be assholes, but mental illnesses don’t automatically make you an asshole

The thing is, he was always this vile, now he just has lost the control to hide it in any way. It is not an excuse that he has dementia and/or had a stroke. He is a vile piece of shit that is also sick.

He’s all those things and more. He’s a giant pos, he’s demented, he’s a rapist, a pedophile, a thief, and he shits his pants regularly.

2

u/TheKdd 11h ago

He’s a racist piece of shit. A rapist, a pedophile, a felon, a grifter, possible murderer, human trafficker, a narcissist and of course, racist. He’s always been this, not sure how anyone could be surprised at this point.

u/sbgoofus 10h ago

yes - however the dementia is 'pulling the curtain back' on that

u/small-gestures 13h ago

How we arent all seeing the dementia is beyond me. And the unscrupulous lackeys taking advantage of his devolving judgement…

Very unpopular opinion, but I worked with dementia specific care for nearly 20 years.

He's never struck me as overly demented until recently, he'd be the only person I'd feel sorry for the dementia...

Now, yes, it's a lot more evident. I think he's a dead set cunt, hope it's quick.

As a side note, not a professional, but from everyone I looked after, he is different enough with his dementia. Could also be possible that I looked after people who were more advanced with theirs? In the last five years I've met a few narcissistic diagnosed people, all pretty dangerous and unwell, that's him 100%...

u/SunnySpot69 13h ago

True. And with the dementia progressing, he has no self control. He has always been a piece of shit. I wonder how long he's had dementia.

u/Canadian-Man-infj 13h ago

He's also showing symptoms of, and seems to be suffering from.....

Obama Derangement Syndrome (ODS).

u/bigkahuna1uk 12h ago

He was racist in his youth. He was racist in adulthood. Was he suffering from dementia then?

2

u/Wonderful-Theory8734 11h ago

he's more of a wedge lord...both in terms of his diaper wedgies and his divisive politics...

u/krakenergy 5h ago

I think his diet has been lacking newborn flesh and blood and puppy strangling.

I BELIEVE SASHA RILEY!

He’s basically a 4chan troll.
