Slurring Trump Says He Purposely Acts Confused And Like He’s In Cognitive Decline
Donald Trump, during a rally in North Charleston, South Carolina, tried to brush off his recent bouts of confusion and signs cognitive decline by claiming it is all an act and that he is doing it purposely.
While making a strange karate chop gesture and doing his signature accordion hands, Trump slurring his words, said the following:
Trump: But when I say that Obama is the President of our country bah bah bah, they go, “He doesn’t know that Spiden (sic), he doesn’t know.” So it’s very hard to be sarcastic. When I interpose — cause I’m not a Nikki fan and I’m not a Pelosi fan. And when I purposely interpose names, they said, “He didn’t know Pelosi from Nikki. From Tricky Nikki. Tricky Nikki. He didn’t know.” I interposed. And they make a big deal out of it. I said, “No, no, I think they’re both they both stink. They have something in common. They both stink. And remember this: when I make a statement like that about Nikki, that means she will never be running for Vice President. She will never be running [intelligible] Vice President.
Side note: Trump does not appear to know the correct definition of the word “interpose.”
Trump has had numerous frequent cognitive scares in recent months.
Donald Trump recently has repeatedly claimed he's beating Barack Obama in the polls, insisted that you need voter ID to buy bread, said Jeb Bush sent American troops to the middle east, bragged that he calls corn 'non-liquid gold,' said that Joe Biden started World War II, and confused Nikki Haley with Nancy Pelosi four times in a single speech, among other cognitive lapses.
During tonight’s speech, Donald Trump also appeared to not remember what years he was president. He bragged about the success of the economy in 2021, when Joe Biden held office. Trump has also recently bragged that he has taken numerous cognitive tests, which are designed to test for signs of dementia and have patients identify images such as a giraffe or an elephant.
