    >I mean, you know, this isn’t like Elon with his rocket ships that land within 12 inches on the moon where they wanted to land. Or he gets the engines back, that was the first I realized—I said: ‘Who the hell did that?’ I saw engines about three, four years ago. These things were coming—cylinders, no wings, no nothing—and they’re coming down very slowly, landing on a raft in the middle of the ocean someplace with a circle. Boom. Reminded me of the Biden circles that he used to have, right? He’d have eight circles and he couldn’t fill ’em up. But then I heard he beat us with the popular vote. I don’t know, I don’t know—couldn’t fill up the eight circles. I always loved those circles, they were so beautiful. They were so beautiful to look at. In fact the person that did them—that was the best thing about his—the level of that circle was great. But they couldn’t get people, so they used to have the press stand in those circles, because they couldn’t get the people. Then I heard we lost, ‘Oh, we lost.’ Now, we’re never gonna let that happen again. But we’ve been abused by other countries. We’ve been abused by our own politicians, really more than other countries. I can’t blame them. We’ve been abused by people that represent us in this country—some of them stupid, some of them naive, and some of ’em crooked, frankly.

    Uh.. I’m starting to understand why Trump’s aides are trying to limit his public appearances down the stretch.

    Donald Trump’s speech to Detroit business leaders Thursday night contained a truly bewildering riff about “Biden circles” and their beauty.

    The former president has made headlines over the course of his campaign with strange speeches about whether it’s better to be electrocuted or attacked by a shark and giving unintelligible, rambling answers to policy questions. Trump has defended his free-wheeling, sometimes unfollowable oratory style as a deliberate ploy he calls “the weave”—but his latest effort looked more like unraveling.

    During Trump’s speech at the Detroit Economic Club—which included a segment insulting the city of Detroit, prompting condemnation from the mayor—the Republican nominee was speaking about how American manufacturing can be affected by other countries’ tariffs before veering off-topic into a discussion about Elon Musk, rockets, and, for some reason, circles. “It’s very sad to see and it’s so simple,” he said, continuing:

    “I mean, you know, this isn’t like Elon with his rocket ships that land within 12 inches on the moon where they wanted to land. Or he gets the engines back, that was the first I realized—I said: ‘Who the hell did that?’ I saw engines about three, four years ago.

    Trump appears to be referring to circles on the ground used as a social-distancing measure at President Joe Biden’s campaign events four years ago during the COVID pandemic. Trump was seemingly reminded of them by SpaceX’s reusable rocket boosters because they land on circular targets painted on drone ships. What any of that has to do with tariffs is anyone’s guess.

    The circle ramble wasn’t his only bizarre aside during the speech.

    “The word ‘grocery,’ it’s a sort of simple word,” Trump said at another point in his address. “It sort of means like everything you eat. The stomach is speaking, it always does.”

    “Trump Baffles Everybody with Bizarre Babble” is all you had to say.

    All he says is word salad hate speech.

  4. account_for_yaoi on

    My theory is that Trump just recently failed the clock drawing dementia test and is now obsessed with circles as a shape.

  5. No-Ambition7750 on

    I am wondering if he sees the writing on the wall, that he might not get elected a and is going to claim mental issues to try to stay out of jail.

  6. This should objectively front page news on The NY Times. “Trump shows signs of dementia in major Detroit speech”.

  7. Accidental-Hyzer on

    Nothing to see here, folks. It’s just “the weave”. You wouldn’t understand the genius of “the weave” method! /s

  8. It just pisses me off so much that the media won’t even acknowledge his lunacy. Can you imagine if Biden was saying things like this? It would be a loop on faux news for weeks, the NYT would have a new headline every hour about his decline.

    It may be the height of perfect ironic timing that Trump was minimized while he said this and a giant ad showed for “BUY MIKE LINDELL’S PILLOWS, 80% OFF!”

    You know, usually with these articles about Trump talking nonsense, I still kinda get what he’s getting at, even ifs delivered in a rambling, circuitous, confusing way. You can figure it out from context and familiarity with how he speaks.

    This time I have no fucking clue what he is talking about.

  11. FitWrap1959 on

    Now that Musk and Trump are buddies, maybe Elon can gift him with a brain implant that will keep him within his platform, similar to the SpaceX rocket landing system. He still won’t make any sense, but at least he wouldn’t start talking about the color of baboon bums or whatever.

    Trump was cooked a decade ago mentally. Now he’s burnt and overdone. Holy shit every time this guy speaks he’s incoherent. The media should be dedicating even a quarter the amount of time to this that they did with Biden

  13. And of course MSM won’t cover this, but when Biden made any little slip it was the top of Google news for days…and MAGAs have the balls to say MSM candycoats things for Dems…

  14. spiked_macaroon on

    He should just change his shtick to like an Oracle or something, some kind of right-wing medium or something that talks in riddles and let those Qanon chuckleheads translate a meaning. Like some kind of Nostradumbass.

  15. thingsorfreedom on

    He’s not really campaigning. He’s just going out there on stage to ramble on for a couple hours. Then the media will sanewash what he says. So what he says is actually irrelevant. He will win if they can cheat enough. If not he’s toast.

  16. I think this guy has one of those “Pointless Phrase of the Day” calendars that his staff made for him on his nightstand.

  17. As a Canadian, watching from afar, if you’re still voting for this man you’re either an idiot, or a psychopath.

    NYT: “Trump delivers strong remarks about his long-held fascination with geometry”

  19. Sad_Confection5902 on

    “Elon musk landed a rocket on the moon! But Joe Biden can’t even fill a circle! Those beautiful, beautiful circles”.

    -a candidate supported by tens of millions of American voters.

  20. HearYourTune on

    I heard this on the news and this made zero sense. Usually I can figure out the stupidity he’s getting at but the circles thing was just crazy out of context nonsense.

  21. AnswerGuy301 on

    I’m pretty sure Space X has never landed anything on the moon, or even tried.

  22. BJJGrappler22 on

    I love that his dementia is so bad that he’s truly incapable of understanding that Biden literally dropped out and that he’s no longer the candidate in which Trump is going up against. In the padded room he calls a mind he probably thinks that Harris is just campaigning for Biden. 

  23. Helmidoric_of_York on

    He’s lost his mind. It’s all a pile of grievances and trollish insults that only he understands.

  24. Did he admit he lost in 2020? Kinda sound like it. Paging Mr Smith!

  25. MissMamaMam on

    It’s actually insane. This is a rapist, con-man, low IQ narc. Look at his hair and makeup! There are reports of him shitting himself? None of this info is hidden… like ppl cannot be serious

  26. nickelundertone on

    I listen to NPR. They run a news brief at the top of the hour and cover “both sides”. They say Harris gave a town hall and made some policy statement. Then they say Trump appeared at a rally, gave a speech in which he made some policy statement and they play the audio of him saying it and the crowd cheers. The brief does not mention the “speech” went on for 85 minutes most of the time babbling, rambling, and lying.

    I can’t remember the last time I heard Harris’ actual voice on the radio. But I’ve heard Trump’s voice every. single. day.

    I support public broadcasting but WTF

  27. The guy that lives next to me just put up a Trump flag, with a footer of “end the bullshit”. I really just don’t know about these people.

  28. wehavenamesdamnit on

    I was half way through before I even had a clue what circles he was referring to. But what really baffles me is the people who accuse Harris of speaking “word salads” while believing Trump is a genius.

  29. mothfactory on

    This has been normal Trump for a long time. The mainstream media not flagging this up whenever it happens is disgusting. Because let’s face it, they piled on Biden for stuff that was very innocuous in comparison. Trump is a presidential candidate ffs. How is this ok?

  30. “Tens of millions of Americans Baffle Everybody With Their Support for Trump” … that’s the real story.

  31. In case anyone was wondering what dementia sounds like, it’s exactly like this:

    > Reminded me of the Biden circles that he used to have, right? He’d have eight circles and he couldn’t fill ’em up. But then I heard he beat us with the popular vote. I don’t know, I don’t know—couldn’t fill up the eight circles. I always loved those circles, they were so beautiful. They were so beautiful to look at. In fact the person that did them—that was the best thing about his—the level of that circle was great. But they couldn’t get people, so they used to have the press stand in those circles, because they couldn’t get the people

  32. CaptainCAAAVEMAAAAAN on

    And he’s neck and neck with Harris in the polls. I can’t.
