      I’d say trump is the guy getting his face eaten. He ran half his campaign on striking down the evil pedophil cabal, while clearly being part of it, and now it’s biting him in the ass.

      Even though MTG is a self serving rascist, I’m happy to see her pry open the growing fracture in the party.

        I don’t think he was trying to strike it down at all, I think he was trying to gain control of it. He wanted the power & blackmail potential for himself to wield against his enemies, but the info got leaked and now his plans are crumbling like the East Wing.

    And you know what? The Greene woman must be elated: Trump just handed her a political future post-Trump on a platter. And that’s exactly what she wanted.

    “Lightweight Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Brown (Green grass turns Brown when it begins to ROT!), betrayed the entire Republican Party when she turned Left, performed poorly on the pathetic View, and became the RINO that we all know she always was,” he said. “Just another Fake politician, no different than Rand Paul Jr. (Thomas Massie), who got caught being a full fledged Republican In Name Only (RINO)! MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!”

    If this is not proof that grandpa’s grey matter has turned to mush, I don’t know what is. When my father - who also had fronto-temporal dementia, like Trump - began spewing out nonsense like that and being this aggressive to others, my siblings and I had to institutionalize him.

      My father fortunately didn’t turn violent with his dementia, but the word salad mess was similar on everyday topics, both in writing and in talking. And it didn’t happen quickly, so we got used to him sounding a bit quirky.

      Yes, it is outcast territory no hope kind of stuff. It can mean a death sentence for a politician (metaphorically for now).
