The Next President is...

So you heard it, but did not listen to it - there’s a difference. To address this single point you (and that article) have cherry picked out to try and use as some beacon of “mental faculty loss,” Trump was talking to the cadets about the importance of momentum - finding it, keeping it, and if you lose it, recognize that and pivot. He used an allegory of a businessman he knew who lost momentum, made poor decisions whilst doing so, didn’t recognize it early enough, and thus he basically tubed his life. It was long winded (as Trump can be) and could have been shortened with the same allegorical effect, but the valid message in the allegory is clear…unless one wants to be a politically-motivated hack and try to completely misrepresent it by cherry picking a couple words and talking about it without any context. 
 

Trump is a loud mouth and showman, we all know that, but along the lines of public speaking and mental faculties, this speech was 1000x better than Biden or Harris could have given. And that’s not so much a compliment to Trump as it is stating how incredibly bad the other options were…but I digress.

Maybe you should give the speeches. Or maybe stand next to him and say, "What the President meant was..."

Wait so is your argument now that it's cognitive decline similar to Biden, or that he's just lying during a speech? If it's the latter pardon me for being bored by something that every politician from Thomas Jefferson to Trump has engaged in rather enthusiastically.

You posted a thought-out explanation of what Trump was trying to convey.  Nice analysis, you put some thoughts into it.  Since you seem to good at this type of work, maybe you should stand next to him and do it live.  Get it?

And yes, I think there is noticeable cognitive decline too.

Not surprised Trump/staff would do this.  All part of just saying shit because enough believe him regardless.  I can't wait for oval smack downs on chem trails, lizard people, and flat earth shit.
