Not sure if it’s all a construct to some extent, the left/right etc, but I do think Trump had no idea about the actual attempts on his life and I don’t think they were anything he wanted. Also think something seems a bit off in last couple of weeks. Some of his speeches seemed less coherent than usual. I wonder if someone is trying to drug him
Discussion
Maybe he’s just a bit tired
Yeah i think the assassination attempts were violent crazy guys and not something Trump would have risked. And yes he seemed particularly incoherent in the last few weeks of the race. And yet he still won easily. I’d bet he doesn’t live the full four years, he’s old.
Ahhh I agree with the first parts definitely (and liked it before I read the bit about not living the whole term!) But I guess we’ll have to find out what happens. Hoping at least he’s going to be able to bring some kinda peace to the ‘forever wars’ as he does seem to
Did you listen to the Joe Rogan interview? 3 hours. I found him very coherent, sharp even. I had to rewind a few spots where I didn't understand but Trump did, to figure out what they were talking about. I'm sure there is context I don't have, but he could immediately have a new context in his head and opine about it much faster than I would expect for a 78 year old. I think it must be the golf.
nostr:npub1acg6thl5psv62405rljzkj8spesceyfz2c32udakc2ak0dmvfeyse9p35c yeah I mostly saw clips so I fully admit that I was likely seeing a distorted view.
Trump is clearly very good at campaigning and the media. I don’t like him or his politics but he’s incredibly effective. It works for winning elections.
I mean we both voted in NZ where we live. I voted for the Green Party, my guess is you voted National or ACT…. Neither are Democrats or Republicans. ;)
But he's actually good in politic.
I sent ACT a letter saying I wouldn't vote for them again if they kept their policy/rhetoric about the middle east, and explained to them where they have been fooled.
I don't know who I will replace them with though. I'm always hoping that the greens will drop their nutty ideas and focus on the green part, then I can vote for them.
I didn’t vote in the last UK election, I don’t think I feel like bothering to vote for some time at least
Yeah I listened to most of it and others, he seemed fine right up until right before the election. Even after the assassination attempts. Then something seemed a bit off on the last few days and almost like he seems more wary. I’m not sure just picking up on vibes maybe
