Donald Trump’s recent rally in Arizona is widely criticized as a clear sign of deteriorating mental and cognitive health. The event features multiple alarming and factually incorrect statements, including calls for shooting leakers and former vice president JD Vance, and absurd claims about oil profits, TikTok popularity, and Canada becoming the 51st U.S. state. His references to a fictional swimming incident involving a giant causing windburn and his incoherent descriptions of social media success reveal a profound disconnect from reality. These remarks are not only factually baseless but also demonstrate a pattern of delusional thinking, particularly in areas involving geopolitics and basic logic. The audience’s visible disengagement—many walking out or appearing confused—underscores a growing loss of trust and support. With Trump’s approval rating at just 37%, a record low for a president entering a midterm election, analysts suggest this could be a major indicator of future electoral outcomes. His repeated claims about cognitive superiority, based on misleading or irrelevant tests, further highlight a troubling decline. Critics argue that such behavior raises serious concerns about his fitness for office, especially when compared to the level of scrutiny applied to other public figures. The rally serves as a stark example of how erratic rhetoric and cognitive lapses may be undermining Republican credibility and public confidence.
So Donald Trump is in full campaign mode for the upcoming midterm elections, and that's really not a good thing for the Republican party. He has like a 30% approval rating, and so people seeing more of his face in these different swing states, not exactly what you wanna see if you're a Republican voter or somebody that wants the Republicans to win. And this rally that he had in Arizona yesterday is one of the best examples yet of his clear and present and rapid mental decline. You're gonna see different examples throughout this video, but overall, just a really bad rally where it seems like he even lost his own crowd. They kinda got bored in the background, and you'll see that as well. So please make sure to subscribe down below, drop a like on the video, comment, let me know what you think about this story and everything we're about to talk about in this rally, which was just so bad. But I think we have to start with this clip where Trump making this really absurd comment, calling for people to be shot. Now of course, the administration is also doing a public execution soon of the Fort Hood shooter. They're playing on live streaming it as well. So perhaps this is not out of the ordinary anymore for the Trump administration and Trump himself, but he said that leakers, so people who speak to the media and perhaps leak something about the administration, should be shot dead. - But they leak, leakers should be, my opinion leakers should be shot. (audience applauding) In the old days, we used to shoot leakers, you know, when they leak, what time you're going to attack a country? - Wow, so think about the many different leaks throughout history or people who spoke to media outlets anonymously to break big stories. I'm thinking of like Watergate for an example, or you know, just different stories about the Trump administration that have been released to the media over the years, his efforts to interfere in elections or his lawsuits or things like that. That is really important to have in the United States of America. And would you believe it? This is the second time that Donald Trump has called for his vice president to be killed. The first time was with Mike Pence. People were chanting hang Mike Pence outside of the Capitol on January 6th, according to reports, Donald Trump said that he deserved it. And now I guess he's calling for the death of JD Vance because we recently learned that JD Vance was outed as an anonymous source behind a Trump story that they used to justify banning Politico. JD Vance had anonymously spoken to Politico about something the administration was doing. He was leaking something to Politico. And I guess by Donald Trump's definition, his own vice president would fall under the be shot category. The second time, you know, the first one was too many. The second time I'm like, there's a pattern here. This seems pretty disturbing to me that Donald Trump continues to do this. But nonetheless, let's move on. Donald Trump also, this was a huge gaff from Trump. And you can tell he tried to clean it up after the fact. But he said our country is making more than it ever has made because of the fact that oil is so high. This is a guy who said, you know, gas prices are gonna come down, oil is coming down, it's not coming down, he's now admitting that oil is high. And then just listen to the justification he tries to use after saying this, he realized he messed up pretty badly. - Because, and watch, they'll cut all of this stuff out. And they'll leave the little sentence that our country is making more money than it's ever made because of the fact that oil is so high. Now they're gonna say, isn't it terrible? He talked about the fact that he doesn't care about the little person they call them. I care more about the little person than I care about the big person. I care about the little person like crazy. But the fact is because of the price of oil, Texas and Oklahoma and North Dakota and all these places were making a fortune. But I never talk about it because I'm not happy until we get the actual price of the oil down to where it was. Right, I had it down to $1. Wait, what? So wait, is it good that oil is high and we're making a bunch of money or is it bad? Because you're bragging about how high oil is. Well, simultaneously saying you're wanting to lower the price of oil. He can't make up his mind. He couldn't even clean up the comments. And I do think it's quite perfect how people were literally walking out of his speech as he was saying this. Look at that top row up there. All of these people walking out. It's kind of like a perfect metaphor for the magma movement and people walking away from Donald Trump and the Republican Party. But yeah, what a great closing message for the midterm elections, huh? Everybody's doing so well because oil is so high. The rich people, the gas executives, the fossil fuel industry, they're making a bunch of money because oil prices are so high. Everybody else is getting screwed over. I mean, look at these prices. The national average is 4.33. That's the national average for gas prices, which is incredibly high higher than it was when Joe Biden left office. Everybody talked about gas prices under Joe Biden and now Donald Trump has raised them and look at diesel. Record high diesel prices that are kind of maintaining their price a year ago. They were at diesel was at $365 a gallon. It's now almost doubled under Donald Trump. Not a good thing, and that's probably why his approval rating is sitting at 37%. A record low for the past 40 years for a president going into a midterm election. Presidents with an approval rating slightly higher than this may be in the low 40s or high 30s. They've done awful in the midterm elections that they were part of, where they were campaigning for at least. So maybe that's a predictor for the upcoming midterm elections. I don't know. People still got to get out there and vote, but it's something to keep in mind. Then Donald Trump continues to brag about his cognitive tests. He's bragging about his health as he is going on these incoherent rants. You're about to see one in just a moment, which is especially bad. And if there's any mega people watching, please try to translate for us. We'd love to hear it. But he's bragging about the cognitive tests, saying, you know, the whole they give you five words. You got to repeat them, and I'm so smart, you know, stick that he does. Well, they give you five words. Oh, they mock me for this. Oh, anybody, they can't do it. Nobody up there could do any of these things. They give you five words. And you don't know what they're doing. They say, sir, we're going to give you five words. We would like you to repeat those words preferably in order. And what they don't say is, at the end of the test, a half hour later, they do it again, so you don't know that. Five words, sir, hat, hair, logo, white, black. Sir, would you please repeat those words? Hat, hair, logo, white, black. Oh, you got it right. Now you get extra points if you can do them in the same order. Now a half hour goes by, they've issued 25, 30 other questions. Sir, in the middle of the test, we ask you about five words. Will you please repeat them again, ideally, in order? You will get points if you get them all. You will get points. But if you can report them in order, you get a lot of points. Go hat, hair, logo, white, black. And they go, holy shit, nobody can do that. When I told the fake news about that, oh, that's so easy. Nobody can do that. I'm getting bored. I could fall asleep listening to this. And by the way, all the people in the crowd feel the same. Look at all these people. They are the die-hard Trump fans. They are the people sitting behind the president. The team that sets up for Donald Trump, the people that prepare these rallies, they make sure that the most loyal of loyal fans are sitting behind him, because they don't want a situation where someone's mocking him behind him. And that's actually happened before. It's always very funny. He goes viral. So these are all, presumably, the most loyal of loyal Trump fans. And they're completely checked out. They're like us. I was going to check out listening to that. I don't know. Like, what is he talking about? Repeating five words. And he thinks he's a genius. Because of this. I have to bring up every single time he does this. This is the test he's talking about. This is the cognitive test that Donald Trump is bragging about saying that he's a genius. You have to identify animals like a rhino. If you can identify a rhino, then apparently according to Donald Trump, you're a genius. Now in reality, this is a test that examines for dementia or Alzheimer's. So if you pass it, it doesn't mean that you are cognitively fit to be president. That's not what this test is looking for. And the fact that his doctors have given him this exam like three times. Kind of concerning. It kind of means that perhaps they see something that would give them reason to continue to test for this and be nervous that something may develop over time. But here's one I really want to show you. And connection to the whole genius conversation. Can anybody tell me what Donald Trump is saying in this clip? Try to translate for what he's talking about here. Tell us what he's talking about here. And you tell me in the comments, if you think this man is fit to be president of the United States based on what he's saying right here. I tell you, my wife is going crazy with me. She hates. She said, "You're president of the United States. You shouldn't be doing this, and you shouldn't be dancing on the stage either, by the way." She said, "You should walk off with a gentle wave, goodbye, everyone." And the gay national anthem plays. You know it's called the gay national anthem, actually. I got the highest gay vote of any Republican in history. I think because of the song. She said, "You should not dance off the stage, my darling. I love you very much. But please don't do that." And don't talk about the swimming where you look left and you look right. And then you look a little further right. And you see the largest human being you've ever seen. you then, Chiquillo Neal with a bigger reach.
And the swimmer got hurt badly because she suffered massive windburn because the giant to her right swam by her so fast that the wind was unbelievable and she suffered. For the rest of her life she'll be suffering from windburn. Like what? I don't. what on earth is he talking about? I genuinely try to give him the benefit of the doubt which perhaps is too generous on my part and I'm just trying to think about what he could be referring to. A woman getting windburn because a giant swam next to her in a pool. His brain is mush. It's mashed potatoes with butter and sour cream in his dome right now. Up here there's nothing going on. It's Thanksgiving dinner in Donald Trump's mind. What is he talking about? The incoherent nonsense. And let me just let me just say I like to bring up this point often because I do think it's right and it is true. If Joe Biden said anything like this just the exact same words that Donald Trump just said right there in the exact same way Republicans and Fox News would make it a story for a week straight. You would not be able to turn on Fox News that terrible channel and see anything else but that clip of Joe Biden doing it. But because it's Donald Trump they say oh you know he's just doing his weave as he calls it and he's just a genius. You don't get it. He's too smart because the giant Shaquille O'Neal who's swimming next to a woman in a pool is apparently great intelligence. I don't know. We're moving on. Speaking of stupidity Donald Trump goes on to say I made 72 billion dollars on TikTok. You know who number one in on TikTok is Trump and then he brings up Taylor Swift saying that he's more popular than Taylor Swift on TikTok. I made 72 billion dollars on TikTok. You know who number one on TikTok is? Trump remember? Trump number one. Can you believe it? Taylor Swift is 19. I'm number one. Can you believe this? No can you believe it? I just sent out the ratings. You know they always say oh TikTok is about China about China. Well I'm number one on TikTok and all I do is say good things about us. I don't see bad things. Like again what is he talking about? I've been making this point on the show recently when we've been covering these Trump rallies because it bothers me beyond belief. We know Donald Trump. We know he's going to say crazy things. You don't got to clap for it. What are these people clapping for? What are you clapping for? Donald Trump is bragging about being number one on TikTok being more popular than Taylor Swift on a social media app and you're clapping. This is the president of the United States. He's not talking about lowering costs or making housing affordable or anything that matters. He's talking about his made up statistics on TikTok and for the record. He number one did not make 72 billion dollars from TikTok. That's impossible. No creator on TikTok has made that much money and there are creators out there who have far more followers than Donald Trump could ever dream of. But just to point out I just want to point out something. Donald Trump has 17 million followers on TikTok, which is a lot. That's a big number for the social media platform. Taylor Swift, her official account has 33.4, 33.4 million followers to Donald Trump's 17 million. So where is he getting this I'm number one on TikTok thing. It's his dementia. It's his mental decline. He makes stuff up. And now we're on to social media account followers. That's his new thing of like fake bragging about. Then Donald Trump decides to harass Canada some more. He's in Arizona. He's harassing Canada. He can't stop talking about them. He says they're going to end up being the 51st state. He wants to make Canada state. He's saying it's going to be the same situation as Greenland, which Green was not a state. But nonetheless, this is what Trump said. We don't take that crap anymore. The car companies are all moving into America. They're all coming in otherwise they have to pay massive tariffs. They'll end up being the 51st state because it's the only way it works. You know, we don't need them, but they need us. And why should we be losing 80, 90, 100 billion dollars a year to support a country that isn't one of us. So they'll be doing something just like Greenland. Yeah, look, I don't, it's not happening. I mean, I, you know, it's just not happening. Canada and the Canadians are going to be waving the maple leaf long after Donald Trump has gone. And I love Canada. You know what I mean? I'm an American. I've never even been to Canada. I would love to go Toronto. I hear it's great. I hear Quebec is great. I hear Canada is wonderful. I'd love to go to Canada. I never been. I love Canada. The hate of Canada is so strange. He's just making this up that we've been ripped off by that. Maybe it's because like Mark Carney, the prime minister is more respected around the world than he is. Maybe it has to do with his former hate of Justin Trudeau, who was also more liked around the world than Donald Trump is. And this idea that, you know, they need us. We don't need them completely false. We get our aluminum. We get wood from them. We get lumber for housing. We get steel from Canada. We get so many things from Canada. Roads sold up in New England for the snowy months. Very important things for people to live. And they can just sell that stuff there somewhere else. They don't need to sell it to the United States of America. They do. We have a great trade partnership barring Donald Trump. If the hate is so stupid. And then he goes on to say that Greenland was owned by Denmark, but now also adds to our beautiful plate. I guess he genuinely thinks that Greenland is now a state. You heard about Greenland. Oh, it's terrible. It's so terrible. What President Trump has done, you know, it was owned by Denmark, very good country, good beautiful country. But they're pretty far away. And we're right next to it. And it's a massive piece of land. You know, it's much bigger than Texas. And it just adds to our beautiful plate. Our plate's getting larger all the time. How about Venezuela? We're doing pretty good there too. These people in the background are completely out of it. I'm looking at this guy down here. He, this guy in the black MAGA hat, he has no idea what's going on. And let me just point out this guy down here. What, what, what is he waving at? What is he waving at? What is, what is going on at this Trump rally? I hate to say it's like the freak show, but it's kind of like the freak show, especially with this guy standing up there. It seems like he was sundowning. This was Donald Trump's rally in Arizona at 4.56 p.m. Eastern time yesterday. So in Arizona, I guess that's two hours behind. Maybe I think it's two hours behind. So that would have been two 56 Arizona time. He's sundowning. He's sundowning early, I guess. Wow. Just a really bad rally from Donald Trump. I think the mental decline is he, he took it up a notch with this one. I will leave the video there. Thank you so much for watching.
