In the middle of Trump’s statement, the interviewer (John Micklethwait) pointed out Trump’s own advanced age by saying “You’re a 78-year old man running for president.” But, Trump just ignored the comment.
Quote him correctly, he said, “Only stupid people put old.” That was it, the entire sentence.

It’s pretty ironic for him to say that when he’s the oldest one running. Makes you wonder if he really thinks about what he’s saying sometimes

He’s so out of touch with reality it’s like something is really wrong with him. I hope he gets the help he needs.

This was recognized early with Biden at least and dems pivoted quickly and successfully to the next best candidate. The republicans are going to have to learn the hard way

true! thats one reason why i voted for kamala. ty for this advice
Dapper-Percentage-64 on
Most of his voters don’t even listen anymore. When they are seen leaving his Rallies early it’s because they’ve posted all the photos on Facebook and tweeted out all the pics. It’s more important to just be seen there. None of them are listening

Well, how soon until this is clipped and put into an ad?

Well, the moron *does* seem self aware enough to know that people who vote for him have to be stupid to do so.

We have all just witnessed the one and only moment when Trump spoke a truth.

He really hates his own base.

He says it’s dumb to put old people in roles that are for life like the Supreme Court. This is true if you want to extend your influence far beyond your presidency but he’s not running for a position that is for life though. Not really the same thing.
What is dumb though is picking a candidate that is already term-limited meaning you don’t get the incumbency advantage in 2028 if he somehow wins.

Just when you think he’s wrong and lies about everything, he hits you with a truth bomb!

Moment of clarity.

He’s right

Goes well with
“The biggest threat to our democracy is stupid people.”
Still my fav Trump quote from the last couple of weeks.

Look, I don’t like the guy but don’t misquote. He said it’s a bad idea to appoint supreme court justices who are older. Because they’re a lifetime appointment… unlike the president which is a 4 year term… There are many things, many many things I disagree with him on, but in this case he actually makes sense. You want stability in the SC and an older appointee is obviously less likely to be there long term.

Biden in race: “Age doesn’t matter… as long as they can do the job…”
Biden not in race: “ermergerd… Trump is too old…”
Just pick an intellectually honest lane. I don’t care which lane… just pick one.

One thing that has been really frustrating to me is that he keeps getting away with saying that all of his election cases were thrown out because he didn’t have standing. This isn’t true. Many of his cases were heard on merits and I need a reporter to push him on this. Vote against the old liar

when he’s right, he’s right.
Probably the 1st time he has told the truth
Even a broken clock is right twice a day
