alt Hacker NewsOnce you accept that Trump is literally senile, a lot of things click into place. Why does he seem unable to predict obvious consequences of the actions he takes? Why does he fixate on random mean words and repeat them with no regard for normal political strategy? Why does he randomly fall asleep on camera?
When he says that he has no reason to worry because the polls show everyone loves him, I think he genuinely believes that.
That's a given, but what is the excuse for Bessent and so on, who are clearly very smart. Just in a really bad way.
