I am pretty certain all the people of good will condemn Trump’s chant. Sadly there none of them will be from the Trumpster side.

‘You have no standing’: Jake Tapper cuts Lara Trump interview after she links stuttering to ‘cognitive decline’

Jake Tapper and Lara Trump appear on CNN (screen grab)
CNN host Jake Tapper on Sunday ended an interview with Trump campaign spokesperson Lara Trump after she suggested stuttering is a sign of cognitive decline.

“Joe Biden as we all know has worked to overcome a stutter,” Tapper said before explaining that Biden had been an inspiration for children who stutter.

“How do you think it makes little kids with stutters feel when they see you [mocking Joe Biden]?” the CNN host asked.

“First and foremost, I had no idea that Joe Biden ever suffered from a stutter,” Trump replied. “I think what we see on stage with Joe Biden, Jake, is very clearly a cognitive decline.”

What an effing liar and what an awful thing to say anyway. There is no bottom to these people. I feel sorry for her children. This is in a post about Eric sticking his stupid feet in his stupid mouth again.

It will be highly and humorously ironic when Ivanka does her perp walk.

Lara Trump-a cryogenically frozen Nazi prison guard thawed out for this special moment? It’s not in my nature to spread rumors but it would explain a lot.

“People of good will on both sides of the aisle need to step up and call this out and bring the heat down,” Whitmer said.

“Joke’s on you, Whit-lessMer. There are no good people on my side of the aisle.”

A United States President cheering on the possible kidnapping and threatning of bodily harm to a United States sitting Governor is beyond reprehensible.

It would be accurate and fair to say that cheering Trump is a clear sign of cognitive decline but what do I know.

What I am fairly certain of is that Trump is the stochastic terrorists’ guru – basically a Charles Manson type – and the head of a crime family, and either charge could stick with the available public evidence alone given a half-way competent prosecutor.

They’re trying to outrun the reckoning that’s waiting for them.

Get a microphone in front of every person in the maladministration and every Republican in congress and ask whether they approve Trump’s attacks on Whitmer. Put every damned one of them on record.

The only question I have is whether any of them, other than Susan Collins, will be “concerned.”

Seems like it, except there was a terrible accident in the cryogenic chamber in 1973, her brain thawed for several days and had to be refrozen. It was damaged.

“But fact-checking site Snopes pointed out that Biden hasn’t owned the property for 24 years, and had bought it for a bargain price of $185,000 in 1974 when it was derelict.”

I’m guessing that Biden fixed it up and made a profit on it. Hopefully, this becomes an ad “Joe vs the Developer” that features Fredo’s idiot claim.
