    Trump Derails His Own Rally With Bizarre Old-Man Tangents

    Donald Trump babbled incoherently at a rally in Atlanta, Tuesday night, the latest in a series of untethered performances from the former president where his apparent cognitive decline showed on full display.

    “‘Thirty-two days, Mr. Congressman. Thirty-two,’ she goes. And the election will be in thirty-twoooooo daaaaaays. Thirty-two days,” Trump said to the audience, slurring his words.

    The former president was attempting to mock Kamala Harris for repeatedly announcing that she had only 32 days until the election during a rally speech. Trump claimed that she froze when the “teleprompter crashed.”

    And with that, Trump’s so-called “weave” carried him away.

    “Ohhh, I would’ve loved to—you know, it kicked back in, it’s called a kickback. Like, some people know a lot about a kickback. It’s called a kickback. They know in this administration. But no, it’s a kickback, it kicks back in,” Trump garbled .

    Trump picking up on the minute details of Harris’s public speaking performances is particularly ironic considering the gibberish he was in the midst of delivering during his sleepy Tuesday night speech.

    At one point, Trump complained about the “woke military,” playing an explicitly homophobic video that included clips from the antiwar film Full Metal Jacket (1987), and expressed his apparent love for world wars, a third of which he is constantly promising Americans is on the horizon.

    “So, we won two, BEAUTIFUL, biiiiiiiiiig, horrible—in many ways—we won two world wars with that attitude,” Trump said .

    This is only the latest scattered, strange performance that Trump has given this week, as his blitz of events seems to be catching up with him.

    Trump struggled to provide coherent answers to policy questions during an interview with the Economic Club of Chicago earlier Tuesday, and lashed out when faced with multiple fact-checks.

    During a town hall in Pennsylvania on Monday night, the Republican presidential nominee abruptly stopped taking questions, and instead had his team play music for 40 minutes while he silently swayed back and forth onstage. Occasionally, he even pretended to conduct.
