I didn't listen to the billionaire (supposedly) bro-fest, but apparently Trump had a lisp/was slurring words. Also that the pitch seemed higher. The terms "helium" and "Daffy Duck" were mentioned frequently on reddit. Sylvester the cat got an honorable mention.

On one hand, if he had a real speech impediment, I wouldn't make fun of it--except that they did exactly that to Biden for years. So fuck them. And, it's a bit....weird and not great when you suddenly develop a slur at the age of 78.

Could be dentures for all I know. Which also should be made fun of if that's the case.

Righties are claiming audio compression issues despite the fact that apparently Elon sounded like his normal asshole self. Oh, and maybe the most boringest, worstest interviewer ever apparently.

Anyway, this I found pretty funny:

In an emailed response to an inquiry about the lisp from a Huffington Post reporter, the Trump campaign said, “Must be your shitty hearing. Get your ears checked.

That's an official campaign response. Professionalism at its finest. This from the same campaign that kept responding "Kamabla" over and over to people asking why they were messing up Harris' name.

Oh, and apparently this wonderful exchange:

Musk: “Hiroshima and Nagasaki were bombed but now they’re full cities again.”

Trump: “That’s great. That’s great.”

Musk: “Yeah so it’s not as scary as people think.”

Yep, one thing about sociopathic assholes, they can always surprise you.

And this bizarre bit...here is Trump talking about Harris.

“She is terrible, she is terrible,” Trump doubled down. “She’s getting a free ride.”
The former president then abruptly segwayed into talking about Harris’s looks, drawing comparison between her and the former first lady.
“I saw a picture of her on Time Magazine today. She looks like the most beautiful actress ever to live,” Trump said of Harris, referring to the latest edition of Time Magazine, which brands Harris’s campaign as “the swiftest vibe shift in modern political history.”
She looked very much like our great first lady, Melania,” Trump gushed as Musk met his comment with an chuckle and a reserved, “yeah…”


What in the actual fuck.

His low energy schedule is because he's had a minor stroke.

Trump creepily thinking Harris looks good in media is a very Trumplike thing to say and probably the closest he can come to a genuine compliment.

This is also probably a factor in why he is not excited to debate her but he's got no choice now.

Maybe at the debate he'll start hitting on Kamala and ask her to sit on his lap like he likes it when Ivanka does it

More like fascism at its finest. Can expect nothing less from Republicans these days.

Biden at the beach, was awesome.

One of those episodes I hope every single American old enough to vote would watch.

We all have a duty as Americans to keep the orange fascist manbaby out of the White House. I'm glad to hear this has become more of a bipartisan issue lately too. Was surprised to hear there are pastors and churches organizing against Trump and the christian nationalists. They're not all posers.

Starting to see this going around Facebook from the Trumpers I know:

“…WHO AM I VOTING FOR - AND WHY?????
That moment when someone says, "I can't believe you would vote for Trump.”
I simply reply, “I'm not voting for Trump.”
I'm voting for the First Amendment and freedom of speech.
I'm voting for the Second Amendment and my right to defend my life and my family.
I'm voting for the next Supreme Court Justice(s) to protect the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
I’m voting for the continued growth of my retirement and reducing inflation.
I’m voting for a return of our troops from foreign countries and the end to America’s involvement in foreign conflicts.
I'm voting for the Electoral College and for the Republic in which we live.
I'm voting for the Police to be respected once again and to ensure Law & Order. I am tired of all the criminals having a revolving door and being put back in the street.
I’m voting for the continued appointment of Federal Judges who respect the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
I’m voting for keeping our jobs to remain in America and not be outsourced all over the world - to China, Mexico and other foreign countries. I want USA made.
I’m voting for secure borders and have legal immigration. I can’t believe we have actually have flown 380,000 illegal immigrants into our country.
I am voting for doing away with all of the freebies given to all of the illegals and not looking after the needs of the American citizens.
I'm voting for the Military & the Veterans who fought for this Country to give the American people their freedoms.
I'm voting for the unborn babies that have a right to live.
I’m voting for peace progress in the Middle East.
I’m voting to fight against human/child trafficking.
I'm voting for Freedom of Religion.
I'm voting for the right to speak my opinion and not be censored. I am voting for the return of teaching math, history, and science instead of indoctrination of our children and pronouns.
I'm not just voting for one person, I'm voting for the future of my Country.
What are you voting for? Trump/Vance2024…”

Have these people ever actually looked at Trump and his policies?

Nuclear war isn't as scary as you think is a really fucked up hot take.
And more top level ammunition the Harris campaign can use to torpedo the orange monkey vessel. Nuclear warfare is fairly universally acknowledged to be unthinkable, no? Do sane people want to give that guy access to the nuclear codes again?

I am a doctor using Google and feels.
I get the feels, I can't see how anyone figures him too be a rational functioning human being. The Google I did on trump having a stroke brings up a lot of hits on mini-strokes alleged, and 2020 is referenced in several. Denials from his "doctors." But what I see and hear is not a cogent man.

More power to you for being on FB and having to read garbage like that. I couldn't do it. Even before I deleted all friends (salt the earth!) and deactivating, I'd already defriended anyone who would post that shit.

The mini-strokes thing apparently is something Trump himself brought up in 2020 iirc. He was admitted to the hospital and in response to nobody asking or accusing it, said he didn't have a series of mini-strokes....like, where the hell did that come from?

Anyway, if he's really having issues I expect we'll have plenty of opportunity to see it. He claims he's ramping up his schedule after the Democratic convention. He has claimed many things. If he doesn't, then I expect to hear "low energy? Just asking for a friend" from the Harris campaign often.
