McDonalds "Impact" event

...And why would a POTUS choose THIS forum, in the first place?
From OCCUPY DEMOCRATS:
BREAKING: Trump goes full Dementia Don at his big McDonald's event with a bizarre word salad about how the "American Dream" was "a word you didn't have" and a tangent about the "third item in the bathroom" that he won't talk about.
Uh, what? It might be time for another MRI scan...
"A great stock market is great for everybody including 401(k)s. You know the 401(k)s hit the highest number that they've eve been two days ago and that's a lot of people," Trump said in a raspy voice that he claimed is a result of screaming at people.
"So they understand what's going on. We're gonna make the American Dream a word, two words that you didn't have. You didn't have those two words," he rambled. "Remember when Biden said 'it's all about three words, the American Dream.' You don't want to ever get in that situation... But that was not good... It's all about three words: American Dream."
It's unclear what exactly Trump was trying to say to the McDonald's owners, operators, and suppliers who had gathered to listen to him speak at the McDonald’s Impact Summit. What is clear is that this man should be nowhere near a microphone and even further away from the nuclear codes.
It seems that hardly a day goes by now without this 79-year-old predator falling asleep in the Oval Office or getting confused by his own train of thought while speaking. His niece Mary Trump has stated that he increasingly reminds her of his father Fred Trump Sr. who suffered from Alzheimer's and often behaved like a "deer in the headlights" towards the end of his life.
During the same event, Trump went off on a rant about bathrooms—
"You know we got rid of the drip, drip water, we call it the drip, drip, where it drip, drips out of the sink," he said. "States with tremendous water, so much water that they have nothing but problems getting [unintelligible]. They had restrictions on water. It comes down from heaven, right? They had restrictions on water."
"So you want to wash your hands or like me, I wanna wash my hair. I lather up and I turn that— And I— There's no water! The water's drip. They call it— They put a restrictor on. I won't mention the third item in the bathroom cause I always get criticized... I used to mention that but I don't mention it anymore cause you know— I think you do. If you don't know what we're talking about then you shouldn't be owning a McDonald's franchise. You wouldn't do well even with a McDonald's franchise."
Sorry Donald, but I guess we shouldn't own a McDonald's franchise then because we have no idea what the hell you're talking about. Presumably, he was trying to refer to his strange obsession with having to flush a toilet "10 times, 15 times, as opposed to once" as he has claimed in the past. Frankly, that sounds more like a gastrointestinal problem unique to Trump than a regulatory issue. In any case, this man has become so mentally clouded that he can no longer even properly whine about his favorite hobby horses.
Letting Trump remain in power as his brain rots out of his mouth on television is governmental negligence of the highest caliber. Congress should remove him immediately.

    Holy sheeet. Bring on the men in the white coats and a serious straitjacket.
  • Is dementia Donnie any less scary than Project 2025 (wannabe king) Donnie?

    "On Monday, Trump appealed directly to the nation's largest fast-food chain
    in a speech that offered no new initiatives but touched on military attacks
    on Iranian nuclear facilities to his personal devotion to McDonald's products
    and his renaming of the Gulf of Mexico
    .
    He peppered his remarks with false and misleading claims about the economy's
    performance under his stewardship."

    "Trump, who has long argued that his tariffs are not fueling price increases,
    reversed course on Friday when he announced the elimination of duties
    on more than 200 imported food items, including coffee and bananas,
    later conceding to reporters that tariffs could raise costs 'in some cases.'"

    "Trump has already floated the idea of a $2,000 tariff-funded check
    for lower- and middle-income Americans, although such a measure
    would require congressional approval.
    He also suggested 50-year mortgages as a way to make houses more affordable,
    although homeowners would pay more in interest."

    Comments: Nothing but lies, empty promises, and a couple of stupid knee-jerk
    reactions ($2,000 checks, 50-yr. mortgages) thrown in for good measure.
    No wonder consumer confidence in near historic lows!
  • I got two words for him: ruffage and fiber! The should help with his problem getting his best work to exit the premises.
  • And this particular consumer's sentiment is not even connected to the standard reportable statistics. Rather I'm feeling awful on account of the fact that the Orange Fuhrer is completely clueless about anything and everything. A rudderless "leader." A rudderless leader who simply makes up stuff to say, on the spot. Who can't be counted upon to even find his way through a ROOM, anymore.
