Trump appears to forget that Jan 6 happened on his watch as he blames Biden

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-biden-fbi-jan-6-post-b2843973.html

In a Truth Social post Saturday evening, he claimed in all-caps that “the Biden FBI” supposedly “placed 274 agents into the crowd on January 6”.

He’s just trying to change the narrative so that others forget.

Nah, he's literally demented with dementia, he can no longer tell the difference between his own real past, his own real past propoganda, his own real current, and his own current propoganda.

He is a sad, angry, hateful, dying old man whose brain is rapidly going from cottage cheese to rancid cottage cheese.

Having known a lot of people suffering from dementia, this doesn’t have the feel of dementia; closer to schizophrenia.

sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 15 pts · 324d

Dementia + malignant, grandiose narcissism.

It looks similar, not the same, but similar to schizophrenia.

He... probably doesn't literally have persistent voices in his head no one else can hear.

But, he's surrounded by sycophantic yes men... who are enabling his delusions.

... and that has basically been the case for his entire life.

He's definetaly got some kind of memory issue, I watched a live speech where he randomly skipped back to an earlier point in the speech mid-sentence without seeming to notice, twice. Creepy part was the reporters continuing to ask question like nothing weird was going on.

This has "why wasn't Obama in the White House on 9/11" vibes to it.

I heard Barack Obama didn't go to work in either of the twin towers on 9/11 either. What did he know and when did he know it?

Now that's what I call a distraction from the Epstein files

Epstein files are also a distraction. Impeach. Then straight to jail

Mnemnosyne@sh.itjust.works · 11 pts · 324d (1 reply)

Epstein files are the only thing that's maintained even a tiny bit of traction among his supporters and made some of them...well I'd say think twice, but that implies thinking a first time.

BanMe@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 324d

It kind of feels like he pulled his usual strategy of saying it wasn't an issue and it's really still an August problem, not an October problem, but I'd love to be wrong here.

Dementia is a sad thing to see.

4am@lemmy.zip · 40 pts · 324d (1 reply)

The sadder thing is how many will blindly follow this dementia. That’s the real Trump derangement syndrome

CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world · 22 pts · 324d

So much this. The real derangement is that millions think a failed game show host and lifelong con artist (and pedo) is great for this country.

Dementia is a sad thing to have running the country.

Sideshow_B00b@lemmy.zip · 6 pts · 324d

Don’t you worry, the ones actually running the Trump admin are young-ish virile fascists functioning at the top of their game. Though in the case of Stephen Miller clearly not very virile..

Almacca@aussie.zone · 15 pts · 324d

While he's clearly in cognitive decline, let's not give him credit by blaming this on a disease. This is the same narcissistic gaslighting bullshit he's been pulling his entire life.

For my dad yes. For this dictator wannabe child rapist grifter? Nope.

Kushan@lemmy.world · 50 pts · 324d (5 replies)

Why do these kinds of headlines keep getting posted suggesting that Trump is being forgetful? He's not, he knows exactly who was in charge, but he knows his base is stupid and will get riled up at anything he wants to tell them.

It's just a constant stream of outrage to keep the base riled.

timbuck2themoon@sh.itjust.works · 26 pts · 324d

Im so fucking sick of the sanewashing.

Formfiller@lemmy.world · 19 pts · 324d (1 reply)

He seems pretty demented to me

Kushan@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 323d

I am not suggesting for a second that he's completely sane or that dementia isn't taking hold, I'm merely pointing out that this kind of thing has been his MO for decades at this point. Truth never matters to him or his base.

DrSoap@lemmy.world · 10 pts · 324d

Or it's little breadcrumbs circling around the fact that he has dementia and no one is doing anything about it.

homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world · 41 pts · 324d (1 reply)

"appears to forget" no he's having another episode of severe dementia.

Can't say "he lied" can't say "he has dementia" can't say "he's a rapist" for fuck's sake corporate news, what the fuck good are you AT ALL.

Blackfeathr@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 324d

They're good at sanewashing, samewashing, and enabling propaganda. They've got all that down to a science.

Trump RELEASED those FBI Agents from Prison!

CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 323d

So, for those following at home, the FBI/deep state agents are also actually "antifa" (or is it BLM?), and they formed a choir that Taco collaborated with, and then, later, he had to pardon all of the J6 criminals.

Who are actually FBI agents planted there by Biden. And they are really antifa/BLM.

Everyone tracking that? 🤣

Your version is too coherent.

Stern@lemmy.world · 17 pts · 324d (2 replies)

I mean technically it was Biden's fault that J6 happened, just not in the way Trump is saying. If Biden hadn't won, Trump wouldn't have tried to make it happen.

Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works · 7 pts · 324d (1 reply)

Well that wouldnt even be Biden's fault, it would be the voters.

JeeBaiChow@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 324d

Yeah, but we know they don't take the blame for anything. It's always 'the system' or 'no decent candidates' or 'fucking boomers' or 'oh look, my nipples are hairy'.

Wait until you hear the theory that Obama was actually running things for his former vice president.

Professorozone@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 323d

No, it makes perfect sense. What he means was that people Biden put into the FBI BEFORE Trump took over, infiltrated the crowd to do all of the damage, violence and insurrection to try to make the peaceful MAGA folks appear to be the aggressors and to make it look like he was trying to overthrow the government...

... Which is why he pardoned them because... wait a minute. Let me try this again. You see Antifa was, no that doesn't work. Ok, I've got it now, they weren't insurrectionists, they were just tourists doing what tourists do, snapping photos, shitting in offices, erecting gallows.... I don't think I'm expressing myself correctly. It all makes sense because...

Biden.

I couldn’t vote for Harris because she didn’t let me know enough about her policies.

Rhaedas@fedia.io · 6 pts · 324d (2 replies)

Yes, her website with a list of policies was definitely hidden well. /s

No, the real problem was she decided that veering back to center/right to attract conservative D/R voters who weren't going to vote for her anyway, rather than stay more progressive. Part of that was the Gaza position, which is what most non-voters claim decided their actions. Democrat election losses are always ones they decide to lose because they go the wrong direction. They're very good at it.

dhork@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 323d

No, the real problem was that she lacked a penis. Misogynists know that can't say that excuse out loud, though, so they come up with other bullshit reasons.

SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world · -2 pts · 324d

They made the right choice by not voting for her because Trump brought peace to the Middle East.
