Trump Has Brand-New Excuse for Why His Voice Sounded So ‘Strange’ in Musk Interview – Which is weird, because his campaign originally insisted there was nothing wrong with his voice at all.

    In a week they will be saying “so what he if had a bunch of cocaine and ketamine before the interview. Everyone does it. Harris should be drug tested”

    Poor guy who had to fix the whole thing in post with Elon breathing down his neck and no overtime pay..

  3. The brand-new excuse is also weird. Trump is blaming “technology” – as if audio works differently just for his voice.

  4. 1. That didn’t happen.
    2. And if it did, it wasn’t that bad.
    3. And if it was, that’s not a big deal.
    4. And if it is, that’s not my fault. < **You are here.**
    5. And if it was, I didn’t mean it.
    6. And if I did, you deserved it.

    > When asked what was going on, a Trump campaign spokesman flat-out denied there was any issue, telling The Daily Beast: “Must be your ears.”

    Also, [“must be your shitty hearing, get your ears checked”](https://x.com/svdate/status/1823165177098830164) to a Huffington Post employee.

  5. This whole Elon for MAGA thing is pretty much Elon kneeling and begging Trump for government money.

  6. I thought this was just some dumb minor problem that was being amplified just for clicks. And then I listened to the interview.

    Hollllyyyyyyyyyy shit. It’s non-stop slurring, but also somehow *worse*. Because of his signature speaking style and malicious personality, he sounds like a 90 year old deranged and excited dork with a mouthful of marbles. “I’m not TttthhhhhhTupid! They’re TTTTHHtupid!!!”. It’s actually worse than you are now imagining. And it’s like that the WHOLE time! I actually couldn’t stop laughing listening to it. It sounds so bad it actually defeats any kind of vacuous point he’s making and enters a realm of comedy.

    My gut feeling is that it could only be a sound/resolution issue, because it’s so hilariously mangled. I suppose he could be stroking out. But all I know is if I were Trump, I would wanna sue Musk for letting that happen. It sounds so bad it could cost him the election.

    I am sick of the media normalizing his campaign and the crazy unacceptable things they say. His campaign did NOT say “Must be your ears.” They said “Must be your shitty hearing. Check your ears.”

    They keep getting a free pass from the media on this crazy shit and it needs to stop

  8. No different than any other lie he spins. Example:

    1. I did not steal the documents

    2. Well, I have them but it was unintentional

    3. As POTUS, I had a right to store them in my bathroom

    4. Fuck you all, they are my documents.

    Is this really much different? It’s SOP for Trump lies…

  9. 1. It was a massive DDoS attack.
    2. It was your shitty hearing, get your ears checked.
    3. It was technical issues at X. <–Today
    4. It was a meddling puddy tat.

    He needs to release his medical information. Even Republicans don’t want JD Vance to be president.

  11. Trump sounded exactly like my dad did when he would speak after he removed his dentures for the night.

    Slurred speech is a very common issue affecting people with dementia.

    During moderate to severe stages, symptoms are very noticeable. Your loved one may struggle to form simple sentences or understand conversations. Slurring, stammering, repetition and use of incorrect words or phrases are common. This is a difficult time for victims of the disease and their families

    Sounds very like what is happening.

  13. You had to know this is what would bother the hell out of him lol. We’re talking about a man who took a sharpie to a map to explain a hurricane path when all he had to do was legitimately say “whoops, I tweeted without updated information” and people would have moved on. Trumo is the most frail egomaniac of all time. Gold medal winner

    > The interview was delayed by what Musk described as a “massive” distributed denial-of-service (DDos) cyber-attack

    Right…it’s definitely not that your platform couldn’t handle a sudden influx of visitors. It’s always those pesky hackers!

    I’ve heard one possible explanation is that he wears dentures, and during the interview, his dentures were loose. It also explains past difficulties with certain words, like saying oranges instead of origins. He can’t let anyone know about it and it getting in the news, because it would make him look old and weak.

    Old guy won’t admit he wears dentures and they were loose or he took them out. It’s so fucking weird.
