The election is in three weeks, and Pennsylvania is a must-win state for both Trump and Kamala Harris, but during a rally last night in Montgomery County, northwest of Philadelphia, Trump got bored with the event, billed as a “town hall,” and just played music for almost 40 minutes, scowling, smirking, and swaying onstage. Trump is no stranger to surreal moments, yet this was one of the oddest of his political career.
This kind of behavior would have resulted in discussion of dementia and Alzheimers if it was a Democrat.
Remember though…. bOtH siDeS r tEh sAmE!
Democrats would NEVER checks notes dance?
Once we missed out on a way better president because he enthusiastically yelled “YEAAAAAHH!!!”
Yeah, and that was bad.
I’m not sure how that’s relevant here except as a reason why doing that sort of thing is generally a bad habit.
No we didn’t. Deans campaign was already in the toilet. The scream was his attempt to get people jazzed about upcoming primaries he had no chance of winning anyway.
For 40 minutes, during a rally, awkwaedly swing back and forth? No I doubt they would. Imagine what you would think if Biden did this.
The dude sucks at dancing like most maladjusted white men. i dont see an issue here out side of his rampant racism and fascism. we can do better.
Honestly? I’d be more likely to attend a political rally if they had more dancing and less pomp.
I wouldn’t think anything of it if Biden did it.
-Lemmy.ml moment
Notorious dance fans, lemmy.ml
On stage, during a campaign event, for nearly an hour? Lol, no. That’s weird.
I’m glad to know where your priorities lie, I guess.
None of my other priorities would like donald trump in office either
It’s just kinda weird to me to hold up this as a refutation to the idea that “both sides are the same” when this specific thing is purely about aesthetics.
It’s not aesthetics. It’s very obviously a mental issue. Almost certainly Alzheimer’s/dementia. If Biden had done this on the campaign trail every media outlet would be calling it what it is.
What makes you think this wasn’t a conscious or cognizant decision?
Competent leadership?
How dare you ?
