RABID Trump crowd cheers as Trump's brain crumbles, half of crowd LEAVES
Donald Trump held a rally in Wildwood, New Jersey over the weekend, where he delivered a speech marred by erratic statements and divisive rhetoric. Trump's assertions clashed with the reality of a dwindling crowd, with many attendees leaving mid-speech. Trump declared his refusal to fund schools with vaccine or mask mandates, despite COVID no longer being an issue at the top of mind for voters. His speech was riddled with linguistic mishaps and bizarre references, including a peculiar rant about the movie "Silence of the Lambs." Additionally, he perpetuated false claims about abortion laws and attempted to portray New Jersey as a winnable state, despite losing it by fourteen points in 2016 and sixteen points in 2020. The rally's chaotic atmosphere underscored the growing disconnect between Trump's fantastical narrative and the disillusionment felt by some of his supporters.
Trump speech slurred, visibly confused while holding stack of papers
Donald Trump was speaking outside the courtroom during his New York hush money trial when he made remarks that sparked criticism and confusion. Concerns have arisen over Trump’s coherence and speech patterns characterized by slurring, as evidenced by this video clip. The failed former president held up a stack of papers and said, "...and you wait'll see. if we don't win this nation, this nation is finished. you wait'll you see what happened. Because all of that stuff will be closed up. He let a lot of my energy policies go through because enercy [sic] was starting under his — what they were doing starting to go up so high so he lot a — he let a lot of ‘em continue including the drilling." Moments like these demand a growing apprehension about Trump's cognitive abilities and mental state, as it’s not at all clear what the ex-president was trying to communicate.

TRUMP UH-OH: Nikki Haley getting MORE popular despite dropping out months ago
Despite dropping out of the presidential race months ago, Nikki Haley has unexpectedly gained popularity within the GOP primary. Haley has received a surge of support in states like Indiana and Pennsylvania. Despite Donald Trump's secure nomination, approximately 22% and 17% of Republican voters in Indiana and Pennsylvania respectively opted to cast their ballots for Haley, signaling a noteworthy dissent within the party. This trend suggests a growing faction of Republicans who are opposed to Trump's leadership. While some of these anti-Trump Republicans may still ultimately support him or abstain from voting Democrat due to various reasons, the substantial number of Republicans backing a candidate no longer in contention underscores a palpable dissatisfaction with Trump within the party ranks.

Trump posts, QUICKLY DELETES rant about Stormy Daniels testifying
Last week, Donald Trump posted to Truth Social about Stormy Daniels, a move that drew attention to ongoing violations of the gag order in his New York hush money criminal trial. Trump's post, which focused on Stormy Daniels' testimony, was swiftly deleted, but not before potentially jeopardizing his legal standing. Trump wrote in part, “I have just recently been told who the witness is today. This is unprecedented, no time for lawyers to prepare.” This is a clear violation of the gag order imposed on Trump, which states he can’t speak publicly about the case’s witnesses and jurors. If justice is to be served impartially, Trump's actions warrant jail time, especially since he’s already been warned about ten previous violations, illustrating a broader concern about a potential two-tier justice system that favors the wealthy and elite.
