my IQ plunged reading this Trump transcript from today

this is not a man of sound mind

[GulfCoast66]

1. Makes me say something I never thought possible:

Worse than Palin.

[Fast Walker 52]

28. ABSOLUTELY! I've thought this for a while.

[charlyvi]

2. So wierd that he calls himself Trump.

This man is unhinged, nuts, wacko, crazy. God help us.

[Arkansas Granny]

56. That's so he can differentiate his remarks from his aliases, John Miller and John Barron.

But, yeah, he's unhinged, nuts, wacko, crazy.

[femmocrat]

3. Palin must have coached him in those early rallies they had together.

Her job is done. He is completely incoherent.

[SharonClark]

6. So true

[treestar]

27. Lol

It is truly Palinesque.

[Monk06]

50. Never go full Palin

[Warren DeMontague]

4. Why does he need to assure people he's going to do this? Why not just do it?

Yeah, just as soon as "Meredith McIver" writes you those piercingly witty insults, right?

[meadowlark5]

5. My brother went to a Trump event in Iowa last night

He's not a supporter but wanted to see what it was like. I asked how the Donald was, if he was still raging about all the mean lies said about him at the Dem convention. He said it was a lot of incoherent rambling, no real segue from one topic to the next. Said it reminded him a lot of Palin.

I imagine it was much like that gibberish in the transcript.

[unitedwethrive]

55. Can't imagine making it through one of Don's rallies

[nolabear]

7. In psychology we call it "flight of ideas."

http://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/flight+of+ideas

And yeah, it' a diagnostic for a number of things.

[Ilsa]

16. ^^^^THIS RIGHT HERE!^^^^

Read nolabear's link, everyone. It may be diagnostic for bipolar disorder, mania, even schizophrenia. Imagine, any one of those on top of his narcisstic personality disorder.

[randome]

17. It's pretty obvious now, isn't it?

This will be the most publicly humiliating downfall in recent history. Surely the campaign staff realizes this by now. Surely even the Trump offspring realize this by now.

I bet that less than 6 months after Clinton is sworn in, we'll hear how Donald was rushed to the hospital and is undergoing a long convalescence from which he may never recover.
[hr][font color="blue"][center]Don't ever underestimate the long-term effects of a good night's sleep.[/center][/font][hr]

[Ilsa]

41. I bet his kids can't see it; they are too accustomed to it.

And I wonder at what point he'll just say "screw it" and leave it all to Pence. That worries me because the rnc might actually rally around Pence.

I don't see how trump can keep going at this pace without becoming completely unhinged. Sarah Palin was losing it at one point.

[Glimmer of Hope]

23. I truly think he has a number of disorders.

[femmocrat]

18. Thanks, nolabear!

That is a very useful term to know. I plan to use it!

[nolabear]

20. I'd advocate looking up good solid references and posting it in as many places as possible.

I've said here many times how I wont diagnose en absentia but this is a pretty hard thing not to see. Mind you, someone who speaks this way doesn't necessarily do it all the time. But stress, mania, confusion, etc. can cause people to lapse into it. So I'm not claiming any particular reason for it but none of the possibilities is good in a presidential candidate, in my opinion.

[femmocrat]

22. Understood.

Thanks again for sharing your expertise!

[Stonepounder]

24. Please consider expanding this a little and make it a full OP.

This is the Donald to a T. It needs to be spread far and wide.

[nolabear]

33. I'll think about doing it later. Thanks for asking.

[duncang]

25. The other day reading his interview with ?

I was thinking it was the same thing. He is mentally unstable. Under stress it can worsen fast.

[treestar]

29. Well that describes it perfectly

[duncang]

34. At the rnc convention

Watching Melenia speak. she would sometimes get what looked like a scared look in her eyes. I wasn't too sure if it was stage fright worried that she wouldn't get it right. Or possibly worried about donnie would say or do if she goofed up. After reading this I am leaning toward the later.

[nolabear]

35. I wouldn't link the two. I have no idea about their relationship.

Heck, I'd have been uneasy too.

[duncang]

38. My problem is

I worked with a guy who would sometimes go off like that. He was really agitated one day while talking to him that nite went home and killed his wife. So I know that colors my perception a lot when I see someone talking like that. I am not a doctor and it may not be valid. But I really believe he needs to get some help.

[nolabear]

48. I'm so sorry! What a terrible thing for you to go through.

Hindsight is deceptive though. You can't go back and be the person it made you before it happened, and believe me, not seeing something like that coming is far more common than seeing it.

[Ilsa]

40. I also think she might be under a tremendous amount of stress from

HIM! And I wonder if her low profile, especially with the public revelations that she lied about the degree, might mean that she really wants out from under the brutal carnival tent.

[3catwoman3]

39. "...a diagnostic for a number of things."

None of which are good, and all of which should be sufficient to disqualify someone from being POTUS.

[Ilsa]

44. Check this out:

Last night Donald was in the depressive phase of manic-depressive mental illness-today he is in the manic phase. I watch some of him earlier. It was bizarre! Wish the cables would have continued broadcasting for the world to see!

Tweet:
CNN finally shuts down Donald Trump after he brags about hiring illiterate contractors

If Donald Trump’s first speech today after the conclusion of the two national conventions was a good indicator of where he intends to take his general election campaign for the rest of the summer, that direction is just as confusing as when the day began. Trump held an event in Colorado in which he more or less rambled about random topics with little coherency or sentence structure. At one point, after he began bragging about how he hires illiterate contractors, CNN finally felt compelled to pull the plug.

Snip

[highprincipleswork]

54. Must be terrible when your star attraction starts barking like a dog.

[Old Terp]

8. Go to the U of Penn site

Search Donald Trump
In addition to a research article comparing him to Voltemort, there is another research article saying that reading Harry Potter act as a patronus charm against Trump

[Ilsa]

19. Perhaps we should promote Harry Potter book series to

Anyone sitting on the fence. Maybe the values of tolerance, conflict resolution without violence, overcoming authoritarianism, etc will sink in.

[yodermon]

9. Wait is that real?

Poe's Law has actually taken over.

[Charles Bukowski]

10. Trump may very well be the worst

public speaker I've ever heard in my life.

Not only is Sarah Palin better, she's EASILY better. That's scary

[Salviati]

11. I feel dumber for having read that.

I think it literally killed some brain cells.

[Ilsa]

12. I wish some speech therapists would open up

about Benedict Donald's speech patterns and what they may represent. It can't just be aging. It's worse than that.

NEVERMIND... READ UP-THREAD ABOUT FLIGHT OF IDEAS, ETC., reply #7.

[Tal Vez]

13. I'm sorry, but the sentence structure, the lack of order - he sounds like a tweaker.

[SticksnStones]

14. Do you think he gets in front of a crowd...

...and forgets that he's running for president?

I think he gets to talking and just loses track of why he's there...

[Moostache]

15. I have heard more coherent meth addicts (n/t)

[anamandujano]

21. "Don't do anything, don't do anything, don't say anything bad about anybody, don't talk."

His governor friend called him with this advice. Good advice that he will not take plus it is already too late.

[C_U_L8R]

26. That's a whole 'nother level of word salad

A vile orange smörgåsbord of random hatespittle.

[NurseJackie]

30. Is he in an altered state from medications?

[Chico Man]

31. The sad part is

It is intoxicating.

For a lot of people.

I call it "Trump Drunk".

[Chico Man]

32. He told the audience CNN turned off their cameras in retaliation

I was watching CNN.

When will he be held responsible for his lies?

[Ms.Lib]

36. Just Wow

It's beyond scary that this man is real & will soon be receiving intelligence security briefings.

[JDC]

37. I think I get it now

After just having the umpteenth back and forth with a "buddy" of mine about the constant word salad that is Donald Trump, it just dawned on me what the issue is with his backers. Trump's words - to his Followers - are like the Higher Power in AA. They mean whatever you want them to mean. He is abstract. His speeches are an empty canvas and whatever he says, you or the guy next to you can interpret that to mean whatever it means to you personally. Substance, or lack thereof, be damned. He is so all over the place, people have convinced themselves he is talking to them, but they are actually just talking to themselves.

#been a while since I've posted. missed this place...

*edit for typo

[rgbecker]

42. That's my take too.

Say whatever, let his followers put whatever meaning on it they want.

[Haveadream]

43. +1

[greyl]

52. Donald's logic traces a widely dashed and crooked path. nt

[Chico Man]

59. Yes

His followers are Trump Drunk.

[smirkymonkey]

63. "Trump Drunk"!

That one has to go viral! That is exactly what these people are!

[First Speaker]

45. In the immortal words of somebody or other...

...every time he opens his mouth he reduces the sum total of human intelligence...

[relayerbob]

46. Sarah Palin has donated her brain to the GOP

Now we know why she wasn't at the convention.

[Jamaal510]

47. He made

less sense than Keak Da Sneak.

[Hekate]

49. Clinton-Kaine -- They're so Sane!

[Bucky]

51. Nonono!! Not with his dreaded verbal!

And did you notice how when he stands there he goes? Why no one is goier than The Donald!

All the best words, I tells ya

[NurseJackie]

62. "You will stay in the Comfy Chair until lunch time..."

[John Poet]

53. Jeez. This is "Stream of Disturbed Consciousness"

Trump's big problem is, he can't prevent his mouth from voicing every disturbed thought he thinks, in the second that he's thinking it-- and then half the time he can't complete the thought before he's off in the weeds somewhere else..

That was hard to read...

[skip fox]

58. A merde river in spate.

[grubbs]

57. Disturbing

All to distract from the fact that he actually said he would hit them so hard their heads would spin. So he has the biggliest best smartest-est and now heaviest words. What an assclown.

[mercuryblues]

60. I am listening

to his Denver speech. It is worse than the exerpts in the OP.

http://kdvr.com/2016/07/27/donald-trump-to-make-stops-in-denver-colorado-springs-friday/


But here is how the media covered it.

http://www.denverpost.com/2016/07/29/trump-colorado-springs-denver/

A day after the Democrats finished their convention, Republican Donald Trump declared during a trip to Colorado Friday he is “taking the gloves off” and will visit the state so often before election day that his supporters will tire of him.

Trump began a verbal take-down of Hillary Clinton in the afternoon in Colorado Springs and continued at an evening rally at Wings Over the Rockies museum in Denver.

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2016/2016/07/30/donald-trump-hillary-clinton-loose-cannon-bad-judgement/87770388/

“We have created a movement,” Trump said to the roaring crowd inside a hangar at the Wings over the Rockies Air & Space Museum. “I mean, look at this.”

Speaking without a teleprompter, Trump addressed the rowdy crowd for about 40 minutes in a speech that ranged from national security, respect for police officers and torture, to the use of economic sanctions to force American companies to keep jobs here. His speech was long on generalities and short on specifics. He promised better care for veterans and more support for police and the military, adding that his family has more star power than the speakers at the Democratic National Convention.

He was right the media is dishonest. They are portraying him as sane, reasonable and intelligent. In essence they are putting lipstick on a pig.

[AgadorSparticus]

61. He is a hot mess right now.
