He has made lying look normal, fair & acceptable. That Martin Luther King Jr. comparison to the crowd was wild. Wow!!!
My first-year undergrad students struggled to understand how such a man is at the helm of a party that prides itself on strong biblical values & integrity.

[sparkeyjones]

The fact that we're now seeing John Bolton as the voice of reason is absolutely mind boggling.

I wish the media would start doing what a number of former Trump supporters are doing! They’re NOT going to his rallies. Reporters wake up! Stop covering him every time he blows his nose! YOU are losing viewers!!!

Can Trump go more than 60 seconds without insulting someone?

[bhuddy]

There was a time when I could not ever have imagined that I'd be thinking of John Bolton as the "adult " in the room. The bar of minimal competence and character for all public offices has been lowered to a level of complete absurdity by an utterly pathological narcissistic and increasingly delusional old con man.

Get new guests. Bolton needs to tell his story in court as a witness against Trump. Find more recent guests that have left Trump.

America is facing a clear choice between freedom and hope or chaos and lies. I choose freedom, hope and Harris/Walz.

[Clarence-ogtu]

His supporters can't tell the difference either.

[jderrida]

He knows the difference between true and false because the lies are all self-serving. Telling the truth, not so much.

The New York Ciminal Court should sentence Trump to prison and suspend the
sentence untill 5 minutes after the last poll is closed.

This might effectively put a wrench
in his second insurrection plans.

[joewilliam]

He does not care about true/false, the only thing matters to him is whether it is good for him or not. This is what a narcissist is.

[BobFJ]

Freedom of Speech should not mean freedom to lie. Defamation laws are there for a reason.

[benjauron]

Regarding the statement that he makes starting at 2:16, it's clear that he doesn't know the difference between the events of the 2020 primary and the 2024 primary. He reminds me of my great-grandmother who once when I was maybe 8 years old called me by every one of my cousins' names before she finally got to mine, confusing me with people some of whom were 20 years older than me. His mind is gone. Every day is just one long senior moment for him. There's no way this guy can be allowed to be president.

When psychologists want a case study on Narcissism they will refer to Trump.

Anybody with fraudulent business practices who was banned from running businesses, Universities and charities should not be considered to lead our country. Not to mention 34 felony convictions.

Yet we can't forget what Jim Comey did to HRC just days away from voting.

@CNN
Why can’t I find coverage of Harris/Walz campaign speech today on your News Channel?

[haletparnther]

Trump does not takes advice; he only wants to give it, period
