What if we framed this version of Trump as the ramifications of elder abuse.

He’s clearly not capable of rational thinking and is being fed all these lies by the folks who claim to want what’s best for him.

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

Trump on camera in a speech saying he deprived Americans of their first amendment rights. Every single news outlet should be demanding impeachment or resignation immediately and every one that doesn’t do so is complicit.

Trump: "We took the freedom of speech away because that's been through the courts and the courts said you have freedom of speech, but what has happened is when they burn a flag it agitates and irritates crowds."
