Credit where credit is due to Katy Tur, MSNOW

[senseandsensibility]

She just did a segment about trump's age, citing recent polls that show the public think he is becoming more erratic with age. (Of course, both my hubby and I erupted with "becoming?" when that came on the screen). Anyway, she covered his made-up story about a sharpie that he rambled about at a recent cabinet meeting, lies about everything from a former president praising his Iran policy, untruths about Wes Moore praising him, and the "friend" who saw illegal voting among others.

Pretty good segment, although it was too short.

1. This will explain why

Trump approval ratings are in an outhouse shitter.

[eShirl]

2. I think more people are open now to seeing his flaws.

There is much to see, if one looks.

3. If one looks indeed

However, it seems that more are looking now and that's a good thing!

4. MSM acknowledgement of his limitations and disorders will be gradual at first, then sudden when it can no

longer be swept under the rug.

Story of the century, IMHO.

8. MSNOW will cover it the best

of any network.

And we thought the Conways' were a stretch.

6. Thanks, Katy, glad you noticed Trump's steep mental decline, it's been evident for all to see for quite some time.

Trump was always a true psychopath and a complete degenerate, probably the worst human being on the planet, but now he's also incoherent, demented and out of touch with reality. Unfortunately for everyone, he's also the president.

9. Bet Katy has covered it before.

The OP points out the word "becoming" but that's what the poll said, not what Katy said.

7. I agree he is not just becoming erratic.

He would have done a lot of the same shit he’s doing now in his first term if he thought he could get away with it. But the Supreme Court and his cabinet of clowns and Republican Congress have paved the way for the perfect storm to act on his evil impulses this time.

[senseandsensibility]

10. Yes, I haven't really seen him get any worse than his first term

except for the fact that he now has no one around him to even mildly suggest he tone it down. Now they clap like trained seals when he goes off the rails.

[GoodRaisin]

12. That's a good way of putting it.

Trained seals.

13. you're right..

his cabinet of corrupt grifting sycophants and the MAGA congress know Trump's mind is toxic sludge but they are terrified of relinquishing power, terrified of accountability..so terrified they turn a blind eye toTrump's sadistic urges because to say no is to invite Trump's retribution..

11. Is Donald Trump well? Does he have the mental acuity to lead this country?

14. Isn't it refreshing to hear someone

ask about trump's mental acuity? Just puts a spotlight on the double standard the press enforces for Dems. Biden's acuity was constantly being questioned by them for almost no reason, at least when you compare his actions to trump's. Of course, more journalists should be asking about it, and I hope this is the beginning of the change.

15. Main stream media has caught on. They can't "both sides" this so easily anymore.

I was hoping this would happen FINALLY. I think their audiences told them they weren't buying this shit anymore.
