August 24, 2020: Mental Acuity, Ridiculous and Pathetic, 'Round The Bend




Regarding our Caesar Disgustus, the question is whether the fucking moron has finally gone 'round the bend.”

       ----from The Quotations of Chairman Joe


The journal Politico reports that tRUMP “has frequently referred to his 77-year-old opponent as 'Sleepy Joe' in tweets and speeches, has tried to paint Biden as mentally unfit for the presidency during the final stretch of the 2020 campaign. The Trump campaign has even zeroed-in on Biden's age and mental competency with television ads showing the former vice president stumbling over his remarks.” (1)

This is rich coming from Caesar Disgustus who, one may recall, spent the summer bragging about a cognitive ability test administered by White House physician Ron Jackson two years ago. This was the incident where tRUMP was spirited from the White House to the hospital under circumstances that were then never made clear. Apparently there was some medical condition requiring the administration of a cognitive test in order to determine the ability of our erstwhile Caesar to function.

Disgustus, of course, does what he always does: project an overblown facade by engaging in his pet pastime of outrageous bravado and braggadocio. Here the braggart tells the nation that the test was a difficult one and that he “aced” it adding, of course, that the doctors never saw such wonderful results. Upon examination the test involved identifying three animals, drawing a clock to indicate a certain time, and other questions to determine if the patient is aware of his surroundings. Normally a person in position of high responsibility would not bring this up; would not want to draw attention to the need for such examination. But, alas, our Caesar is not normal.

He has, once again, gotten away with it, for the press is now too cowed by the blustering bastard to press the point home. The question is not whether the president* (I) did well on the examination; the question is not simply the nature of the examination and how easy it was; the question is not why tRUMP raised the issue. The question is not why the president*(I) lacked so little cognitive awareness that he was not embarrassed to raise the subject. The question is why the test should have been administered the test in the first place. This question should have been pressed upon tRUMP in his televised interviews and at every press conference as to why the test was administered in the first place; for this is one of a battery of tests given when a patient has suffered a severe medical event. Could tRUMP have been suspected of having suffered a stroke?

Clearly, any examination of tRUMP, and certainly anyone who has been within earshot of the man throughout his adult life has witnessed a man of limited understanding and even less intellectual acumen. Those close enough to witness the man with their own eyes have been known to see broad daylight between the ears. But something must have triggered the response by the White House medical team to go to these lengths.

Disgustus is now so unaware of his surroundings that he doesn't see how ridiculous and pathetic he now appears when he raised the issue and then compounded the folly by protesting its difficulty. This too should be alarming.

This isn't idle observation: for in the aftermath he stood before the nation with a straight face and in all earnestness advocated the injection of bleach and ultraviolet radiation into the body in order to cleanse the Covid-19 virus. What had happened is that his team had told him about the ways in which one can protect oneself from the disease, washing hands, using disinfectants, wearing masks, social distancing. Disgustus, who had early on made the virus a political issue by falsely declaring the whole thing a “Democratic Hoax” and the wearing of masks a bit of Democratic fear-mongering, fell upon the use of disinfectants. This, in the mind of the eternal seven-year-old, got translated into the injection of same, much the the shock and dismay of those around him.

One is left to conclude that the mental acuity test, which he evidently passed, was meant to determine whether additional damage had been done to an already truncated understanding. In a word, whether the “fucking moron”, in Rex Tillerson's telling description had finally gone 'round the bend.

As observed many times in these columns the visceral reaction of our Caesar Disgustus is always one of projection in which his myriad nonredeemable faults are given over to others. In attacking Joe Biden's age, Joe will be older than any president to take office, tRUMP is actually telling the nation the he himself is not up to the job and that he has indeed gone 'round the bend.

An Br'er Putin, he jus' laugh and laugh

Flush this turd, November 3rd.
