Trump brutally booed & heckled so badly, he starts to glitch
During the Libertarian National Convention in Washington, D.C., Donald Trump unexpectedly proposed himself as the party's presidential nominee, only to be met with resounding booing and heckling from the audience, causing visible discomfort and glitches in his speech delivery. Despite attempts to win them over with exaggerated promises and attacks on their current strategies, Trump failed to sway the crowd. His reliance on a teleprompter and apparent lack of preparation further undermined his efforts, ultimately resulting in a humiliating exit from the stage. While some attempted to spin the situation positively, acknowledging Trump's courage in facing a hostile crowd, it was evident that his approach had backfired, exposing his failure to anticipate opposition and his inability to charm the Libertarian audience.
Confused, disoriented Trump salutes during Amazing Grace and at airplanes
Donald Trump's recent behavior has raised concerns about his apparent confusion and disorientation, as evidenced by his random saluting during a rendition of "Amazing Grace" at a recent NASCAR event. This unusual behavior puzzled observers, as saluting during "Amazing Grace" is unprecedented and generally considered inappropriate. Saluting typically holds specific connotations tied to military honors or addressing superiors, none of which apply to the hymn. Even in a military context, saluting during such occasions would be unconventional. Trump's history of erratic saluting, including an instance where he saluted a North Korean general, further highlights his lack of understanding of proper decorum. These incidents add to the ongoing narrative of Trump's growing confusion and worsening mental state.
From over the weekend:
Did Nikki Haley make a deal to be Trump's VP?
Nikki Haley announced last week that she will be voting for Donald Trump, despite previously questioning his suitability for the presidency. This surprising move has sparked speculation about Trump's strategic motives and the potential implications for the upcoming election. Some speculate this is a last-minute appeal by Haley to be Trump’s vice presidential pick. Haley’s endorsement could potentially unify the GOP, but resistance persists among some of her supporters who remain critical of Trump. The irony of Haley's backing for Trump, despite past disparagements directed at her and her family, underscores how Trump maintains a strong grip on the Republican Party.
From over the weekend:
Trump won't testify because everything Michael Cohen said is true
The defense in Donald Trump's criminal trial rested last week without Trump taking the witness stand. This decision underscores the absence of a plausible defense against Michael Cohen's damaging testimony in the New York hush money trial. Despite previous assertions that Trump would testify, the risks of perjury and the inability to provide a credible alternative narrative have led to his absence. Trump's usual tactic of evasion and reliance on his perceived intellect could falter under cross-examination, particularly without a convincing counter-narrative. This trial highlights Trump's struggle to provide viable defenses when confronted with substantial evidence. Looking forward, similar legal battles may further expose Trump's weaknesses in the absence of compelling counterarguments. The case serves as a warning about the potential challenges Trump faces in future legal proceedings if his defense strategy continues to rely solely on discrediting witnesses and prosecutors without offering substantive rebuttals.

Because of all that Michael Cohen has recently gone through, he looks lie he has aged considerably. He has high blood pressure, and I will remember him in my prayers. He looks like hell.
