They’ll call Kalama “word salad” but even on her worst day she’s been much better than this.

I doubt he’s ever actually cared for a child, other than wanting to date his daughter

The man’s brain has already been moldy pudding, but when asked a question that requires him to step out of his own shoes a bit and empathize with others, the tires REALLY blow out.
He’s never struggled to find help with his kids so he can’t think of anything to help others.
During the debate he repeatedly refused to answer a question about how to support those fighting addiction.
Before the height of Covid he insulted a reporter for asking what he would tell anyone who was scared about a pandemic.
His brain blue screens the moment something isn’t about him.

Trump’s word salads are getting worse and worse and worse and yet his true believers seem entirely incapable of noticing the decline.

I’m surprised he never got around to saying “those are rookie numbers…”

Honestly man someone call a doctor. This man was having a stroke.

One of the most important moments in Presidential speeches: “(that) because (look) childcare is childcare (it’s couldn’t you know it’s something)”. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR SERVICE!

It’s just another remix of the same catchphrases he says everytime he’s asked anything at all.
How can people still think his words mean anything??

People in my life will shockingly ask if I’m for real when I tell them I think Trump is a know nothing moron. It’s occams razor at this point for me. Dude is a fucking idiot who happened to be born with a diamond encrusted spoon in his mouth. That doesn’t make him smart. The fact that he’s wealthy doesn’t make him intelligent. Yet, in this country people assume you must be smart if you win the economic genetic lottery.

No worries JD Vance covered it for him already. The answer to childcare is grandparents! Problem solved!!

He did say ‘child care’ a couple of times throughout that shit, so as far as the MSM is concerned it’s all A OK

This is the stupidest man on the face of this earth. He should be imprisoned.

Donald Trump is a real life dumbass and the media should be talking about how dangerously stupid he is. Remember when he mixed up health insurance with what sounded like some form of social security or life insurance? He can’t get into specifics on anything because he doesn’t know anything about anything and thinks he is an expert on everything

I can’t imagine being on his team and having to praise him for his outstanding grasp of the complex issues of the day. Those people must drink very heavily every night.

I was stunned. What a shockingly ridiculous response to a reasonable question that millions of people (including many of his voters) have an existential interest in. What. The. Fuck.

Trump on affordable Child care:
“Well, I would do that and we’re sitting down, you know, I was, somebody, we had Senator Marco Rubio and my daughter, Ivanka was sooo..uh..impactful on that issue. It’s very important issue… But I think when you talk about the kind of numbers that I’m talking about, that, because, the child care is, child care is ..couldn’t, you know, there’s something you’d have to have it in this country, you have to have it. uh but when you talk about those numbers compared to the kind of numbers that I’m talking about by taxing foreign nations at levels that..they’re not used to but they’ll get used to it very quickly. And it’s not gonna stop them from doing business with us, but they’ll have a very substantial tax when they send product into our Country. Those numbers are so much bigger than any numbers we’re talking about including child care…that it’s gonna take care. We’re gonna have. I look forward to having no deficits within a fairly short period of time. Coupled with the reductions that I told you about on waste and fraud and all the other things that are going on in our Country. Because I have to stay with child care..I wanna stay with child care but those numbers are small relative to the kind of economic numbers that I’m talking about INCLUDING growth..but growth also headed up by what the plan is that I just..uhh..that I just told you about, we’re gonna-bee takin in trillions of dollars. And as much as child care..uhh..is talked about as being expensive, it’s relatively speaking not very expensive compared to the kinda of numbers we’ll be taking in. We’re gonna make this into…..an incredible Country that can afford to take care of it’s people..and then we’ll worry about the rest of the World..let’s help other people. But we’re gonna take care of our Country first, this is about America first, is about Make..America..Great..Again..We have to do it because right now we’re a failing Nation..so we’ll take care of it. Thank you.”

You can see him try to remind himself to get back on track when he says he need to stick to childcare but he just doesn’t have anything substantive to say and immediately loses the thread again.
