Should I worry that Trump can't form coherent sentences?
Yes. Speech is important; it’s how we communicate. If a person cannot communicate, he cannot be understood. So far, Trump has been communicating almost entirely with people who are like-thinkers, so even if they don’t understand exactly what he says, they understand his message, as vague and numbingly difficult to pin down as it is. It’s almost like they communicate in a kind of toddler language grown ups don’t understand.I would really like to be a fly on the wall when Trump has to meet with the brilliant leaders of the free world and have to hang with them tit for tat. I can easily see him leaving a meeting thinking something transpired completely opposite of what he thinks, simply because he is such a poor communicator. What if he delivers one of his execrable “extemporaneous” speeches on the floor of the UN? When he uses a teleprompter, he seems very uncomfortable, probably because he is such a poor reader. I think he is terrified that one of his speech writers will use words he doesn’t know or are longer than two syllables. And those speech writers? Awful. Caught between a rock and a hard place, they have to pander to both an uneducated* speaker and an uneducated audience. What happens when the audience is the world?The rest of the world, for the most part, already views Trump as a buffoon; I cannot see his inability to form coherent sentences or to transmit thoughts verbally as a good sign for our country.*I refer to him as uneducated the same way I would many athlete college graduates, who “graduate” even though their degrees are basically useless. Trump may have graduated from university, but with much help, it seems, from pop; he doesn’t seem to be a very “educated” man.
Why did Hillary Clinton lose the 2016 US election?
Hillary Clinton didn’t lose the election in 2016.I’m not talking about Electoral College vs popular vote.I’m not talking about Russian meddling, which certainly happened, assuming everyone except Donald Trump and Vlad Putin saying otherwise can be trusted.Had all qualified votes cast in the election been counted, Hillary Clinton would be in the White House.All the handwringing on the part of the Democratic party about how they screwed up and lost the White House is for naught. The Democrat candidate won the election. Had over 1 million qualified votes that were thrown out been counted, both the popular and Electoral College vote would have gone to her.All the Democrats need to do is re-establish the integrity of the voting process. Not an easy task, to be sure, since the GOP knows it won’t win a fair election. But programs like Crosscheck virtually assure that Democrats have to win by a landslide to overcome the suppressed minority votes that are disallowed into the final count.Palast predicted Trump’s win via these voter suppression programs months before it happened. Last I knew there were 28 states where Crosscheck purges minority voters from the rolls based on bogus name matches with voters in neighboring states. I’m glad to know that my home state of Indiana is the first to face a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of this blatantly racist scheme.Hillary won the election, it’s just that the votes showing it weren’t all counted. And so we have Trump, who appointed as Chairman of the Voter Fraud Commission none other than the architect of the Crosscheck program.There is, indeed, electoral fraud happening. Republicans and Democrats both should be outraged that this central component of what makes America great - the right to vote for our elected officials - is no longer a legitimate process.Thus, Hillary didn’t lose the election. Hillary “lost” the election.
Can Obama shuck n jive his way through a speech or press conference without his teleprompters?
Why does Obama veer off of his prepared remarks or answers to staged press conference questions when all it does it gets him into trouble and expose his ignorance? From Joe the Plumber to "miscalibrated" answers regarding his racist "good friends", when Obama speaks his mind, terrible things happen. If Obama stuck with his script and said what he is told to say he would still enjoy support of the majority of the American people. http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/obama_administration/daily_presidential_tracking_poll Obama is not paid nor was he elected to think. Obama was elected to read the teleprompter. O-bots better pray the messiah has a few back-ups tonight.

Is there any credible evidence that Donald Trump has dementia?
I have been wondering this for awhile. My father died from Alzheimer’s and I certainly see Trump display some of the same symptom.Paranoia, agitation, irritability, and odd sleep patterns are among the early symptons of Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia.A few of the things that concern me:paranoia was one of the first visible symptoms with my father (and with an elderly neighbor who was convinced that her sister was breaking in every night and moving things around in order to drive her crazy); Trump is certainly paranoid in many directionschange in sleep habits: my father would often wake up in the middle of the night and stand over my mother, watching her sleep … this could explain some of the late night tweets (and even some of the spelling errors)significant changes in political or religious views from a few years ago … my father found God and joined an extremely conservative church; Trump has switched from a fairly liberal Democrat to a very conservative RepublicanEven the fact that he apparently eats mostly fast food seems inconsistent with someone of his wealthduring one of the debates and during a recent join press conference, Trump began to wander offTrump does not seem to be able to stick to teleprompter when speaking and often wanders off on wild tangentsReports that Trump no longer reads books or long reports and that he was surprised by the scope of the Presidencyduring his most recent press conference, Trump looked down at his notes to read some very basic informationTrump seems to be signing executive orders without really understanding them - perhaps without reading themTrump gets defensive when people challenge what he’s saidTrump keeps reliving his win over and over againBecause of his enormous wealth and power, Trump has been in a position to hide many of the signs of dementia. He does not drive, so he doesn’t need to remember directions. He can cover during meetings by asking someone what they thought of what was just said. He doesn’t cook or perform most of the other routine chores that would make mental changes obvious.There are certainly other things that could explain Trump’s behavior, but given his age and family history, this should certainly be a concern - especially since Trump’s own doctor raised the issue during a recent interview.
